TORONTO, Feb. 24, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stroud Resources Ltd. (TSXV:SDR) (“Stroud” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has begun its Phase 2 diamond drilling program on its Santo Domingo Silver Property (“Santo Domingo” or the “Property”), located in Hostotipaquillo Region of Jalisco, Mexico. A 3,500 m program is planned for this phase of drilling, targeting the newly discovered Zopilote Vein (previously “New Vein”), the Guadalupe Vein and the La Raya Vein on which there is a current National Instrument 43-101 mineral resource estimate (see Stroud news releases dated 20 November 2017).
In its 2021 Phase 1 diamond drilling program, the Company completed 7,702.55 metres in 21 completed diamond drill holes and 383 metres in 5 abandoned holes. (Table 1; Figure 1). Assay results received to date are summarized in Table 2, with the results from 6 drill holes pending. Parameters for the 21 drill holes completed in 2021 are available on the Company website (www.stroudsilver.com).
The Phase 1 drilling program was successful in exploring the extent of known vein system-hosted silver mineralization on the Property and identified additional silver mineralized zones and vein systems such as Zopilote, which appear to strike parallel to the existing La Raya and Guadalupe silver vein systems (Figure 1).
The Company’s current Drilling Permit covers 13 drill pads (drill setups) located across the Property. A second drilling permit will be submitted seeking additional drill pad locations to facilitate further delineation of the three known mineralized vein systems and other exploration targets.
