Soltoro Drills 7.5 Metres of 224 gpt Silver Including 1.5 Metres of 592 gpt Silver Extending La Soledad West Deposit
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 09/05/12 -- Soltoro Ltd. (TSX VENTURE: SOL) has encountered additional high-grade silver mineralization at depth at the La Soledad West deposit on its El Rayo Project in Jalisco, Mexico. Three of four step-out diamond drill holes have intersected high-grade silver mineralization with each hole containing intervals of nearly 500 g/t silver. Further drilling at depth and along strike to the east and west is planned to define the limits of the La Soledad West deposit.
LA SOLEDAD WEST: Four diamond drill holes were completed down-dip from the previously identified high-grade silver mineralization encountered in holes Ray11-59, Ray11-87 and Ray12-125. All of these holes are outside of the existing NI 43-101 compliant La Soledad silver resource. Results are as follows:
Andrew Thomson, President and C.E.O. of Soltoro Ltd., stated: "Drilling north of the La Soledad West deposit has expanded the known high-grade silver resource area where silver grades and widths are increasing with depth. Three of the four holes drilled at Soledad West encountered near half kilogram silver values where mineralization remains open at depth and along strike to the east and west. Drill testing will continue in this area to expand the existing silver resources."

MATACHINES EAST: Four diamond drill holes and six reverse-circulation holes were completed to expand the newly discovered high-grade silver zone at Matachines East. RC12-149 intersected a new, previously unknown, high-grade silver structure. Drilling to date has intersected broad intervals of low-grade silver mineralization but did not intersect higher grade silver similar to those encountered in hole RC12-149. Ray12-146 intersected the Las Bolas structure and was designed to test a silver soil anomaly 200 metres east of the Matachines mine area. Results are as follows:
In addition to diamond drilling, soil sampling has been extended to cover areas of known or projected gold-silver-base metal mineralization. Anomalous areas of particular interest include the northwest extension of the structure that hosts the El Rayo gold resource and the Sacramento, El Ocote and Nueva Suerte vein structures located south of the Las Bolas-La Soledad resource area. Mapping and sampling are currently underway in these areas with a view to developing drill targets.
Assaying from this program was completed by ALS Chemex through their office in Guadalajara, Mexico. Gold was analyzed using a 30g fire assay with AA finish while the silver is analyzed using a four acid "near total" digestion package. Mr. Steven T. Priesmeyer, C.P.G., Vice President of Exploration for Soltoro Ltd. and a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101 has reviewed and approved the contents of this press release. Field supervision of the El Rayo project is provided by Mr. Patrick Toth, P. Geo., Vice President of Operations, Soltoro Mexico.
