Silver One Resources Inc. reported the completion of a core drilling program for metallurgical testing at its Candelaria project in Nevada. A total of 1,010 metres in six holes were drilled along the north side of the Mount Diablo pit in an area 300 m long by 200 m wide . The samples collected are representative of each type of mineralization (oxide, mixed (oxide-sulphide), and sulphide) in the property, and are being prepared for testing at Kappes, Cassiday & Associates in Reno, Nevada (KCA).

Bulk samples of oxide mineralization, previously collected with a backhoe from the bottom of the Mt. Diablo pit, are already at the KCA laboratory undergoing bottle roll and column cyanide leach tests to investigate the silver and gold extractions. Results from the metallurgical testing will be used in an upcoming in-ground resource estimate to update the historical resource completed by Silver Standard in 2001, as well as to evaluate the economics of various processing scenarios, including mixing fresh mineralization with the historic heap leach mineralization versus processing the heap leach material alone.
