As shown in the longitudinal section on Avino's website
(http://www.avino.com), we have drilled 23 holes at Guadalupe to
date. Holes are concentrated in two areas at either end of an
approximate 800m strike length. Avino's next phase of drilling at
Guadalupe will aim to fill in the gaps.
We have moved our drill rig back to the San Gonzalo vein to test
the vein at depth. Avino drilled 40 holes at San Gonzalo in 2007
and a further 7 holes in 2008. Drilling stopped due to global
financial market conditions not for geological reasons. Therefore,
we are optimistic that we can extend San Gonzalo's mineralization
at depth. Once drilling on San Gonzalo is complete we will mobilize
the drill back to the Guadalupe vein. Management feels that the
Guadalupe area could become a significant source of future mill
feed.
Holes are drilled using Avino's own Longyear 44 core rig at thin
wall NQ diameter. Core is sawed at Avino's core storage facility at
the secure mine site. Samples of vein material, usually from a few
centimeters to 1.5m, are placed in plastic bags. The sealed sample
bags are collected by personnel from Inspectorate Labs in Durango
at the mine site facilities.
Gold analyses are by 30-gram fire assay with an atomic
absorption finish. Silver, zinc and lead are analyzed as part of a
multi-element inductively coupled argon plasma ("ICP") package
using a four-acid digestion with over-limit results for silver
being reanalyzed with assay procedures using fire assay and
gravimetric. The Company employs a rigorous quality control program
that includes standardized material, blanks and core
duplicates.
The project is under the supervision of Chris Sampson, P.Eng,
BSc, ARSM Avino Consultant, who is a qualified person within the
context of National Instrument 43-101 and has prepared and approved
the technical data in this news release.
Founded in 1968, Avino's mission is to create shareholder value
through profitable organic growth at the historic Avino property
near Durango, Mexico. We are committed to managing all business
activities in an environmentally responsible and cost-effective
manner, while contributing to the well-being of the community in
which we operate.
Our primary goal is to build a multi-million ounce-per-year
silver producer. Our specific objectives are to achieve full time
commercial production as soon as possible, expand resources,
reserves and the mines output as well as to identify, explore and
develop new targets on the property.
Avino remains in a good financial position; is debt free and
well-funded to continue its development plans.
