Zacatecas Silver Corp. reported multiple silver and base metal assays from its recently completed phase one diamond drilling at El Cristo vein system. Together with the previously announced results on July 7, 2022, Zacatecas encountered significant silver-base metal mineralization within 22 out of the 28 holes drilled.

El Cristo is the NW strike extension of the prolific and well known Veta Grande vein system onto the Zacatecas Silver property, with most of this extension still untested by drilling. Highlights: Drilling has outlined high-grade silver-base metal mineralization over 1.5 strike kilometers of previously undrilled vein systems across a 750-meter-wide corridor. Mineralization remains open to depth and along strike to the south-east.

Recent El Cristo results include: 9.00 m @ 158 g/t Ag Eq (149 g/t Ag, 0.05 g/t Au, 0.08% Zn and 0.05% Pb) from 17.87 meters downhole (CRI-2022-018) 0.82 m @ 592 g/t Ag Eq (84 g/t Ag, 0.14 g/t Au, 3.7% Zn and 11.8% Pb) from 69.10 meters downhole (CRI-2022-020) 3.00 m @ 262 g/t Ag Eq (250 g/t Ag, 0.07 g/t Au, 0.1% Zn and 0.04% Pb) from 21.00 meters downhole (CRI-2022-026) 2.10 m @ 204 g/t Ag Eq (200 g/t Ag, 0.03 g/t Au, 0.03% Zn and 0.01% Pb) from 47.14 meters downhole (CRI-2022-017) 1.60 m @ 181 g/t Ag Eq (175 g/t Ag, 0.02 g/t Au, 0.06% Zn and 0.05% Pb) from 4.40 meters downhole (CRI-2022-027) Drilling at El Cristo mainly focused on testing previously undrilled vein systems to the south-east of the project, which are now interpreted to be the western extensions of the Veta Grande vein system. The Company completed 28 diamond drill holes at El Cristo for a total of 2,815 meters.
