Jim McDonald, President and CEO of Kootenay Silver (TSX.V:KTN – OTC:KOOYF) joins us to recap yesterday’s (August 14th) news release reporting assay results from 11 holes at the Columba Project, in Mexico, focused on expanding the D-Vein. Refer to the drill plan map and long section from the news release, posted below, for a better understanding of the location of these results.
Key takeaways include the expansion of the D-Vein’s strike length to over a kilometer from an initial 450 meters, at the start of this year’s drill program. These results are part of the 20,000-meter fully funded drill program. Jim explains the strategic importance of these results, their implications for future resource estimates, and the aggressive, step-out drilling approach for this year’s program. Finally, comparisons are drawn to similar successes at projects like Silvercrest’s Las Chispas Mine and Vizsla Silver’s Panuco Project, emphasizing the potential for high-grade, wide intercepts to substantially increase resource volumes.
