Highlights:
Fredy Salazar, President and CEO, commented; "The intersection in hole CURI-163 is extremely positive. Together with the high grade intersection in CURI-160 it significantly expands the area of potential resources and opens the potential to extend the El Domo deposit further to the east."
CURI-161 tested the projection of the mineralized horizon approximately 170 meters east of CURI-148 (16.32m (at) 1.31 g/t Au, 6.80 g/t Ag, 2.42% Cu and 0.41% Zn(1)). It intercepted 30 meters of hydrothermal breccia carrying 7% pyrite and 5% sphalerite-chalcopyrite.
CURI-162 tested the projection of the mineralized horizon approximately 50 meters east of CURI-138 (5.86m (at) 1.36 g/t Au, 68.4 g/t Ag and 1.00% Zn). It intersected 18 metres of hydrothermal breccia with 10% to 20% pyrite and accessory chalcopyrite and sphalerite.
CURI-163 was collared 50 meters southwest of CURI-160 (10.31m (at) 0.86 g/t Au, 17.30 g/t Ag and 6.02% Cu). It intersected 17 metres of copper and zinc rich massive and semi massive mineralization.
