Mexico’s Best Drilling Intercepts, Second Week of January 2024

Silver Storm Mining produced not one but two press releases during the week with results from drilling at its La Parrilla Silver Mine Complex in Durango. The results from this clearly poly-metallic property are from the San Nicolas, C550 and C460 Zones, which are part of the Quebradillas Mine.

The San Nicolas Zone is comprised of subvertical quartz-carbonate vein and breccia mineralization
over a known strike length of 600 m. Sulfide replacement zones with pyrite, galena, sphalerite, acanthite, and native silver occur within the hanging wall and footwall along the bedding within the sediments. The C550 Zone is comprised of quartz-carbonate vein mineralization within a fault zone with a known strike length of 300 m, with mineralization extending vertically for more than 200 m, and a thickness of up to 5.5 m. Mineralization consists of galena, sphalerite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, and arsenopyrite. The C460 Zone is a sulfide replacement vein with a known strike length of 425 m. The zone is mineralized over a vertical extent of 570 m and its thickness varies up to 8.5 m. The replacement vein is concordant to bedding in the sediments and mineralization is comprised of pyrite, pyrrhotite, galena, sphalerite, arsenopyrite, acanthite, and freibergite.
