Valor Chairman, Mark Sumner said: "The intercepts from this drill program continue to confirm that the Berenguela Project is a high-quality copper-silver asset, with potentially valuable manganese and zinc credits. We are intercepting grades that are unprecedented for this deposit, which only increases our enthusiasm for Berenguela.
"Hitting numerous intervals over 1,000 g/t Ag confirms that our geology is exceptional, but hitting grades so high that we've exceeded the limits of SGS' testing has surpassed our expectations. We will seek to determine the maximum silver grades and report on these results as soon as possible. In the meantime, we will continue to drive the project forward with ongoing drilling which is expected to unlock further value for shareholders. Berenguela is shaping up to be an outstanding multi-commodity asset."

Drilling Program OverviewThe drilling program commenced on 10 July 2017. The program includes 66 drill holes for a total of 9,570 metres, targeting depths between 100 and 200 metres focusing primarily on the Berenguela central deposit area, with select drill holes targeting mineralisation outside of the area current Inferred Resource shell. To date, 24 holes for a total of 3,655m have been completed. The drill holes are spaced on 35m x 35m grid and were performed from 11 platforms (BEP-002, BEP-003, BEP-005, BEP-006, BEP-007, BEP-008, BEP-021, BEP-022, BEP-023, BEP- 025, BEP-029).
