Multiple\n centers of this type of high-grade mineralization were discovered\n throughout the Pinguino property in veins including Tranquilo, Marta\n Norte, Tranquilo Sur and Luna. These discoveries remain wide open in\n all directions and have excellent potential for expansion. Previously\n published results in these areas include Hole P349-10, which returned\n an intersection of high-grade silver mineralization containing 6.0\n meters of 2,428 grams per tonne (g/t) silver and 0.22 g/t gold, Hole\n P358-10 containing 4.6 meters of 313 g/t silver and 0.16 g/t gold, and\n Hole 308-10 containing 6.40 meters of 486.6 g/t silver and 1.91 g/t\n gold.\n\n\n"We have a strong treasury and we are excited to begin this strategic\n phase of drilling at Pinguino, targeting the previously discovered\n high-grade silver intersections for expansion along strike and at\n depth," said Ken Hicks, President of Argentex. "We have never been in a\n better position to move the company forward and demonstrate the\n excellent geological potential at Pinguino."\n\n\nD...
