John Miniotis, President and CEO of AbraSilver Resource Corp (TSX.V:ABRA – OTC:ABBRF), joins us to outline continued high-grade silver drill hits over wide intercepts from the JAC Target at the Diablillos Project in Argentina. While the company did release a Resource Estimate for the Oculto Deposit on November 3rd of last year, the success from initial drill results at the JAC Target, has the company putting all focus from the Phase 3, 15,000 meter drill program on further defining this mineralized area.
- Hole DDH 22-067 at the JAC target, encoutered 871 g/t AgEq over 27m in sulphide mineralization. That interval is located immediately beneath a further high-grade oxide intercept grading 522 g/t AgEq over 36m.
- Hole DDH 22-076 encountered two high-grade silver and gold zones at the JAC target:
- 22m at 477 g/t Ag and 0.20 g/t Au in oxides from 147.0m downhole; and
- 8.5m at 1,953 g/t Ag, 6.66 g/t Au and 0.43% Cu in an oxide-sulphide transition zone from 169.0m downhole. This interval includes the record-grade silver intercept of 1m at 12,581 g/t Ag and 44.5 g/t Au.
- Hole DDH 22-082 Returned 347 g/t AgEq over 26.5 m, including 1,055 g/t AgEq over 7.0 m
The plan once this third phase of drilling is complete, and as all the assays are reported, is to then put out a maiden resource on this JAC target area, as it is looking constructive for being a second deposit area that would make economics more attractive on the front end of any economics for development due to the higher grades and continuity from has been reported thus far.
