new zone of strong gold and silver mineralization identified at mesa de plata

Azure Minerals Limited (ASX: AZS) (“Azure” or “the Company”) is pleased to report that multiple, strongly anomalous gold and silver assays have been returned from soil sampling to the east of the original Mesa de Plata silver discovery. Results include high gold and silver grades from a previously un-sampled area, as well as from within the area of recently announced high grade silver from rock chip sampling (refer ASX release 16 September 2015).

These results, with grades reporting as high as 2.44g/t Au & 104g/t Ag, indicate potential for this new zone to host significant silver and gold mineralisation within widespread outcropping vuggy silica similar to that which hosts the Mesa de Plata silver deposit.
