[{"type":"text","content":"Same Hole Returns 13 m at 307 g/t Ag; Expanding High-Grade Gold & Silver Mineralization East of Oculto Toronto – May 20, 2025 – TheNewswire – AbraSilver Resource Corp. (TSX: ABRA; OTCQX: ABBRF) (“AbraSilver” or the “Company”) is pleased to report its best-ever gold intercept, on a grade-thickness basis, from ongoing drilling at its wholly-owned Diablillos project in Argentina (the “Project”). The standout intercepts come from step-out hole, DDH 25-024, which encountered exceptional gold and silver mineralization just beyond the previously defined eastern margin of the conceptual Oculto open pit. These results underscore the strong potential for continued growth of high-grade mineralization east of Oculto. This area is now a further high-priority exploration target as part of the ongoing Phase V drill program. Highlights include: 31.0 metres (“m”) grading 10.0 g/t gold and 16 g/t silver, including: 6.0 m at 41.9 g/t gold and 22 g/t silver Additionally, the same hole returned a separate interval of 13.0 m grading 307 g/t silver from 216 m depth and within the conceptual open pit, including: 8.0 m at 446 g/t silver in the upper silver-enriched zone John Miniotis, President and CEO, commented, “The spectacular intercepts from hole DDH 25-024 clearly demonstrate the strong potential to expand high-grade mineralization well beyond the existing Oculto deposit. With three drill rigs now active across the broader Diablillos land package, we are entering another exciting new phase of exploration growth, aimed at unlocking substantial value for our shareholders, while in parallel with our ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study.” Table 1 – Summary of Key Drill Intercepts Intercepts greater than 2,000 gram-metres AgEq shown in bold text: Drill Hole Area From (m) To (m) Type Interval (m) Ag g/t Au g/t AgEq1 g/t DDH-25-021 Sombra 26.0 31.0 Oxides 5.0 92.5 - 92.5 DDH-25-023 Sombra 32.0 34.0 Oxides 2.0 15.7 1.58 147.6 49.0 50.0 Oxides 1.0 24.6 0.40 58.0 DDH-25-024 Oculto East 88.0 97.0 Oxides 9.0 - 0.27 22.5 177.0 183.0 Oxides 6.0 50.5 - 50.5 192.0 193.0 Oxides 1.0 5.7 0.69 63.3 216.0 229.0 Oxides 13.0 306.5 - 306.5 Including 217.0 225.0 Oxides 8.0 446.3 - 446.3 233.0 234.0 Oxides 1.0 10...
