Note; The estimated True Width of ESP 12-10 intersection is %, approximately xx meters
The definitive true width is unknown at this time.
Harold Forzley, President of the Company states, "The Company is very pleased with the results from the Phase 1 drill program on the La Esperanza zone. The results show silver and base metal mineralization along the over 600 meter drill tested zone. This data along with trench and surface samples will provide further data for the planned Phase 2 drill program at the La Esperanza structure which will explore this system at the 200 meter depth."
The company has drill tested over 600 meters of strike length and with the release of Hole 12-10 all Phase 1 results are now out. The La Esperanza structure is open to the north, south and to depth.
Company is currently preparing plans to mobilize surface sampling and diamond drilling on the Santa Margarita gold zone located approximately 2 kilometers east of the La Esperanza zone.
Listed below is a complete composite of the La Esperanza Phase 1 diamond drill program.

All samples on the property are taken by company employees. Each sample is individually sealed in standard plastic sample bags and secured with cable ties. 2-4 samples are then placed in rice bags and secured with cable ties. The samples are transported by Company
employees to a bonded carrier (as recommended by Acme Analytical Labs) who transport them to the Acme Analytical prep facility in Guadalajara. The samples remain in Acme Analytical's possession and they are responsible for secure transport to the Acme Analytical facility in Vancouver B.C. for analysis. For quality control purposes within each drill hole several standards (known analytical results) are randomly placed in the consecutive sample numbers as a double check for the accuracy of the Acme Analytical process.
About the Project
The El Centenario project is situated 15km southwest of the La Cienega mine (owned by Fresnillo PLC) a structurally controlled gold-silver-lead-zinc mineral deposit that has been in production since early?1999. To date, the La Cienega mine has produced more than 2M oz of gold and 50M oz of silver. Additionally, the world-class Metates deposit (27M oz gold equivalent owned by Chesapeake Gold Corporation (TSX-V: CKG) is located 10 km south-southeast of the El Centenario project. The project area encloses a historical, little-explored mining district that was active during the Spanish colonial times. The concession block contains dozens of mineral prospects and an abundance of small-scale mine workings. The style of mineralization varies from epithermal, low sulfidation, fracture-filling vein-stock-work breccia systems to skarn and sediment-hosted enriched disseminated zones. The Company has entered into an agreement to earn a 70% interest from Arcelia Gold Corp, a private company.
