The drill target is a pair of parallel silver/lead/zinc structures, the historic Crown Point/Silver King Mines structure, and approximately 300 feet to the south, the parallel Shea structure.InvestmentPitch.com has produced a \"video\" which discusses this company.

Total production was reportedly 116,000 tons averaging 12 ounces per ton silver and 11.3% lead.The Shea vein system was extensively mined at the adjacent Bunker Hill Mine with records reporting a 30 foot ore intersection made in 1936 by an underground drill hole from the 200 foot level at the Silver King workings into the parallel hanging wall Shea zone. This was never followed up.Initial diamond drilling, due for completion by the end of September, will penetrate the structures from the south through both the Shea zone and the Crown Point/Silver King zone. The two parallel mineralized zones extend east-west for approximately 1,400 feet in length and project over 1,000 feet in vertical extent. Management believes the zones could extend much deeper below the 1,000 foot level, based on the adjacent and highly prolific Bunker Hill Mine to the east, which was mined down to 5,800 feet.
