Dia Bras Exploration Inc. reported that exploration drilling from surface at Santa Eduwiges and Promontorio mines has encountered wide zones of silver mineralization.
The Company has recently focused its efforts on the Santa Eduwiges – Promontorio portion of the property, where multiple, silver-dominant veins intersect.
Twenty-two drill holes have been completed, for which assay results have been received for five holes. An additional nine holes are planned. Of particular interest is the intercept in drill hole 363, which is a zone of silicified rhyodacite with disseminated argentite. It is a sulphide-poor interval with minor quartz veinlets and is a newly recognized type of mineralization at Cusi that indicates the potential for underground bulk mining.
