[{"type":"text","content":"Arizona Silver Exploration Announces Completion of the Q2 RC Drilling Program at Philadelphia Gold & Silver Property\n \n \n (TheNewswire)\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Vancouver, British Columbia –\n \n \n TheNewswire -\n \n \n June 07, 2021 – Arizona Silver\nExploration Inc. (TSXV:AZS) (OTC:AZASF)\n \n \n is\npleased to report that it has completed its Q2 reverse circulation\n(“RC”) drilling program at the Company’s Philadelphia\ngold-silver project located in Mohave County, Arizona. The Company\ncompleted a total of 6,270 feet in 15 holes on the recently acquired\nPerry Claim. Exploration drilling focused on testing along the strike\nand shallow dip of +1400 feet of the Perry vein, visible in outcrop at\nsurface.\n \n \n \n \n In reference, we are 4,000-5,000 lineal feet away from\nthe Philadelphia mine/vein area where we last intersected the\nhigh-grade vein.\n \n \n \n \n Click here to view news\nrelease\n \n \n \n \n \n .\n \n \n \n \n \n A total of 15 RC holes were drilled on five sections\nand tested the shallow levels of the Perry vein exposed on the\nsurface. All 15 holes intersected the vein. Vein thicknesses generally\nincrease with depth as do vein textures.  The deepest intercepts\nlooked the best in terms of thickness and boiling zone textures.  It\nis apparent from the results of this drilling program that we appear\nto have the complete boiling zone preserved intact beneath the\nsurface.  Also, the host geology is relatively uninterrupted by\npost-mineral faulting that confounds the exploration of the down-dip\npursuit of the Philadelphia vein to the north.\n \n \n \n \n Drilling samples from the RC drilling campaign are\nbeing sent to ALS Minerals sample preparation facility in Tucson,\nArizona under strict chain of custody.\n \n \n \n \n We have 4,500 feet of strike, south of the Perry claim,\nthat remain untested. Our district level analysis interprets that the\nentire +11,000 feet of the vein system is tilted to the south. The\nfurther south along the vein system we go the higher we appear to be\nin the vein system, and the better preserved the boiling zone is.\nConversely, the further north we go the deeper we appear to be in the\nvein system. Erosion appears to have removed (a significant) part of\nthe vein system in the north. Sampling is underway to follow up...
