by Prestige Project PrestigeprojectFirm reports show Indicated Resources at Cruz de Mayo of 2,353,400 ounces of
silver plus 3,800 ounces of gold and Inferred Resources of 12,967,100 ounces of
silver plus 20,000 ounces of gold. These resources are near surface and situated
only 40 miles from the Santa Elena mining facilities. Prestige Lakeside
Habitat A Pre-feasibility Study and environmental
baseline work is currently underway at Cruz de Mayo for completion by mid-year
2012.
Silver crest is as well as working to
advance their La Joya Property where exploration work has indicated
silver-copper-gold mineralization along a strike of approximately 1.5 miles in
length and 300 to 500 meters in width. Firm geologists report mineralization is
occurring along a series of wide up to fifty meters, near vertical stock work
veins and structures crosscutting shallow flat lying skarn deposits up to 30
meters thick.
Prior exploration at La Joya took place from 1981 through 2006 by Luismin,
Bolden and Solid Resources during which time 56 drill holes covering 15,720
meters took place.
The firm acquired their interest at La Joya in November 2010, and quickly
enlarged their concessions from 1,625 hectares to a present total of 8,473
hectares and has the right to ultimately acquire 100% ownership of the venture ,
subject to a 2% Net Smelter Return NSR. The firm immediately began exploration
programs and, based on 27 recently drilled core holes and several verified
historical drill holes, a latest Resource Estimate for La Joya was released
during January, 2012 which showed Inferred Resources of 57,940,000 tonnes
grading 28 g/t Ag, 0.18 g/t Au and 0.21% Cu, containing 333,400 oz. Au,
51,348,000 oz. Ag and 270,296,000 pounds of Cu using a cut-off grade of 15 g/t
Ag equivalent.
Using a higher cut-off grade of 30 g/t Ag reduces the Inferred Resource tonnage
to an estimated 35.5 million tonnes with increased grades of 39 g/t Ag, 0.22
g/t Au and 0.30% Cu. Compared to the lower cut-off grade of 15 g/t Ag Eq. Silver Crest has
completed 17 holes of a planned 80-hole Phase II drill program, that will
entail an eventual 15,000 meters planned to test the 1.5 miles of the
mineralized trend as well as three adjacent targets with the ultimate goal of
establishing an open pit mining operation. Prestige Lakeside
Habitat Bangalore One of the more
interesting prospective areas at La Joya is known as the Coloradito Target. Six
historic holes were drilled at Coloration and firm COO Eric Fier noted that,
The Coloration region shows potential for a large bulk tonnage Molybdenum,
Tungsten, Ag and Au system with Cu, Lead and Zinc credits. Planned Phase II
drilling during 2012 will further test the extent of mineralization in the
Coloradito area. The company’s immediate
goal is to double the resource figures from historic estimates, and a latest compliant
Resource Estimate is presently scheduled for early Fourth Quarter 2012.
