Southern Silver Exploration Corp. (SSV-TSX.V; SEG1-Frankfurt; SSVCL-SSEV; SSVFF-OTCQB), a Canadian-based precious/base-metal exploration company focused on the acquisition, exploration and responsible mining development in Durango, Mexico and New Mexico, USA.
Southern Silver’s growth strategy is to focus on the development of quality assets, in significant mineralized trends, close to infrastructure. With this in mind, the Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of high-grade precious/base metals properties within North America. The high exploration/discovery potential of Southern Silver’s projects combined with a low market capitalization, a commitment to the joint venture business model and low operating costs create an excellent opportunity for future corporate growth and an increase in shareholder value.
Durango, Mexico
Redcloud Securities have created a short promo video that gives the viewer an aerial overview of the Company’s Cerro las Minitas project in Durango, Mexico.
In the Faja de Plata (The Belt of Silver) in north-central Mexico, 70 km by road from the city of Durango, exploration on the 265 sq. km, Cerro Las Minitas property by J/V partners, Electrum Global Holdings LP and Southern Silver (60/40 respectively), has led to identification and delineation of four mineral deposits (the Blind, the El Sol, the las Victorias and Skarn Front) as well as new discoveries at the Mina La Bocona and the South Skarn zones. Updated 2018 Mineral Resources at a 175g/t AgEq cut-off equal:
Indicated Resource of 116.1Mozs AgEq: 33.6Mozs Ag, 319Mlbs Pb and 813Mlbs Zn; and
Inferred Resource of 92.7Mozs AgEq: 20.7Mozs Ag, 131Mlbs Pb and 870Mlbs Zn.(1)
The 2017 exploration programs on the Cerro Las Minitas Project, comprised of 18 holes and approximately 13,500 metres with Southern Silver acting as operator. Drill results continued to extend high-grade mineralization in the newly identified Skarn Front target including: 12.5m (est. TT) Grading 154g/t Ag, 2.0g/t Au, 3.2% Pb, and 3.9% Zn (558g/t AgEq; 15.7% ZnEq) and 6.5m (est. TT) averaging 737g/t Ag, 8.6% Pb, and 21.8% Zn (1814g/t AgEq; 51.2% ZnEq).
To date, a total of 108 drill holes have been completed on the project totalling 49,524 metres as well as US$15.5M spent in total exploration and acquisition resulting in an exploration discovery cost of $0.07 per AgEq ounce.
New Exploration Target: +30 Mt grading 80-120 g/t Ag and 4-8% Pb/Zn (+300 Mozs AgEq)(1)
Additionally, the newly acquired CLM West claims are being explored for possible epithermal vein systems similar to nearby Avino Gold-Silver Mine and San Sebastian Mine with initial float sampling identifying strong anomalous gold/silver values.
The 2018, US$3.0M,10,000m exploration/drill program is underway testing both the CLM main and CLM West Ag/Au claims.
(1) Resource parameters can be found on the following page. The exploration target is conceptual in nature and relies on projections of mineralization that are beyond the standard CIM classification of mineral resources and should not be relied on as a mineral resource estimate.
Southern United States: Oro Project, New Mexico
The 11.8 sq. km Oro Project covers the majority of the historic Eureka Mining District in Grant County, New Mexico. The company has identified multiple prospective drill targets throughout a 2 kilometre long mineralized corridor largely untested by modern exploration. Oro is a gold, silver and base metal project with excellent potential for discovery.
Southern Silver is affiliated with Manex Resource Group, a private company comprised of an exceptional multi-disciplinary team of professionals, with specific expertise in all the areas of exploration, development and public company administration.
