Silver Viper Minerals Corp. provided an update on exploration activities within the La Virginia Silver-Gold Project, located in Sonora, Mexico. Exploration efforts since the release of Silver Viper's maiden NI 43-101 gold-silver mineral resource have continued to advance with drilling at El Rubi and expansion of mapping and sampling coverage across the project area. Work continues to refine drill targets over additional prospective showings, and a ground crew has now completed line cutting in advance of a ground geophysical survey programmed to commence in the coming weeks. Silver Viper has engaged Quantec Geoscience to execute a TITAN-160 deep-penetrating geophysical survey centered over El Rubi Deposit. The survey aims to probe to depth, the sub-surface at El Rubi and is expected to assist in designing a future drill campaign to test deeper portions of the mineralized system. The TITAN-160 survey will collect DC resistivity and Induced Polarization ("DCIP") and Magnetotelluric ("MT") data. The DCIP component of this survey is expected to provide qualified data to a depth of 750 m below surface, while the MT can achieve depths in excess of 1500 m below surface. Drilling at El Rubi has targeted progressively deeper intercepts, mineralization reported herein was encountered within breccias and stockwork zones mostly within rhyolitic host. Prospecting work continues along the El Rubi trend and the adjacent El Molino trend. Advances have been made at the La Colmena and the newly identified Paredones prospect areas. These early-stage prospects host outcroppings of silicified hydrothermal breccias and quartz veining, similar to those seen in the El Rubi area. Current work includes chip sampling and mapping. Assays are awaited. Recent diamond drilling within the project has probed for lateral and vertical extensions from known mineralized intercepts at El Rubi. Recent drilling focused largely on the southern portion of the El Rubi trend as it projects toward the north-south trending Macho Libre structure. Best results from the recent work include 0.5 metres (0.4 metres estimated true width) grading 361 g/t silver and, 4.1 g/t gold and 0.5 metres (0.4 metres estimated true width) grading 443 g/t silver and 10.5 g/t gold from 143 metres and 200 metres downhole depth respectively both from LV21-301. Hole LV21-303 returned a best result of 1.0 metres (0.81 metres estimated true width) grading 188 g/t silver and 7.85 g/t gold from a down hole depth of 123 metres. Drillhole LV21-312 was drilled beneath previous intersections in the southern portion of the El Rubi resource, returning a best interval of 0.5 metres (0.36 m estimated true width) grading 49 g/t silver and 17.9 g/t gold from a downhole depth of 357.60 metres. Drillhole LV21-311 returned weakly anomalous silver and gold, the interval is of interest, however, due to elevated base metals. The stated interval averaged 0.67% Cu, 1.52% Pb and 1.15% Zn from a depth of 450.0 metres downhole (true width 0.5 metres). In addition, a second zone measuring 0.5 metres core length (0.25 metres true width) graded 36 g/t silver, 2.47% Pb and 1.63% Zn from a downhole depth of 453.0 metres. A single hole, LV21-292 was oriented in a southwesterly direction from the Western Zone to test a previously identified soil geochemical anomaly. This hole returned a best result of 1.77 metres (1.42 metres estimated true width) grading 80 g/t silver and 2.48 g/t gold from a down hole depth 13.23 metres. Also presented above are four holes, (LV21-293 to LV21- 296), designed to further test the northern extension of the El Rubi deposit. Drill holes LV21-293, 295 and 296 returned generally low, but anomalous results on trend of expected mineralization. Local faulting is thought to have affected the northward extension of the mineralized trend by down-dropping the target horizon relative to the El Rubi deposit. Anomalous soil geochemistry and the presence of outcropping silicified structures indicate that there is potential for additional discoveries at depth within this down-faulted block north of El Rubi.
