Almadex To Start Drilling at San Pedro Silver-Gold Project, Mexico
29 October 2022 - 5:07AM
Almadex Minerals Ltd. ("Almadex" or the "Company")
(TSX-V: “DEX”) is pleased to announce that it has mobilised an
exploration team to its wholly owned San Pedro project in Jalisco,
Mexico to commence a follow-up drilling program anticipated to
begin in the coming days. The San Pedro project is accessible from
Guadalajara, 115 km along a paved highway, followed by 7km on a
maintained dirt road.
The new drilling will target a recently
identified structural trend associated with float rock of vein
material, soil anomalies and old mine workings. Surface rock
sampling earlier this year on this trend returned significant
silver and gold values. Channel sampling along the trend included a
6.8 metre interval that returned 0.02 g/t gold and 137.7 g/t silver
and a 4.2 metre interval that returned 3.7 g/t gold and 167.8 g/t
silver. A total of 14 grab and chip samples were taken in this
specific zone in 2022, averaging 0.6 g/t gold and 179.6 g/t
silver.
J. Duane Poliquin, Chairman of Almadex
commented, “Our project portfolio is the result of years of effort
and invested intellectual capital. We have a track record of
discoveries, and we feel the varied and exciting projects in our
portfolio have the potential to add to that record.”
Qualified Persons and
MethodologyJocelyn Pelletier, P.Geo, a Qualified Person as
defined by National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) has reviewed
and approved the scientific and technical contents of this news
release. The analyses reported were carried out at ALS Chemex
Laboratories of Zacatecas, Mexico using industry standard
analytical techniques. For gold, samples are first analysed by fire
assay and atomic absorption spectroscopy (“AAS”). Samples that
return values greater than 10 g/t gold using this technique are
then re-analysed by fire assay but with a gravimetric finish.
Silver is first analysed by Inductively Coupled Plasma - Atomic
Emission Spectroscopy (“ICP-AES”). Samples that return values
greater than 100 g/t silver by ICP-AES are then re-analysed by
HF-HNO3-HCLO4 digestion with HCL leach and ICP-AES finish. Of these
samples those that return silver values greater than 1,500 g/t are
further analysed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish.
