Endeavour Silver Corp. (NYSE:EXK) (TSE:EDR) revealed Tuesday high grade silver-gold exploration drilling results from the Asuncion area of its producing Bolanitos mine in Mexico, forming three discrete zones over an 800-metre length that are still open at depth and towards the surface.
Of the highlights from the Asuncion area of the La Luz vein system (L-Asuncion), the company intercepted 329 grams per tonne (g/t) silver and 4.75 g/t gold over 4.6 metres, including 1,530 g/t silver and 9.4 g/t gold over 0.13 metres.
Endeavour said that at a 200 g/t per metre cutoff, these two mineralized zones collectively measure more than 400 metres long by 250 metres deep, by up to 5 metres thick. “We are very encouraged by both the internal continuity and precious metal grades of these mineralized zones at L-Asuncion,” said VP of exploration, Luis Castro.
