(NYSE: FSM) | (TSX: FVI) | (BVL: FVI) | (Frankfurt: F4S.F) is pleased to report that exploration drilling has successfully extended\n the Trinidad ore shoot to the north and to depth with mineralization\n remaining open in both directions. Results are also reported for the\n initial infill drilling being carried out in the central portion of the\n Trinidad deposit for purposes of conversion of Inferred Mineral\n Resources to an Indicated Mineral Resource classification.\n\n\nJorge A. Ganoza, President and CEO, commented, \"We are excited by the\n consistency of the discovery holes drilled north of Trinidad, where we\n are starting to configure a new wide and high grade silver and gold\n mineralized shoot that remains open on two directions.  Grades and\n widths of mineralization found are significantly higher than the\n average grade of existing reserves and resources.  Our exploration team\n is giving priority to defining the controls and extent of this new\n zone, located within reach of current underground mine development.\"\n\n\nExploration Drilling Highlights: \n\n\n\n\nHole_Id\n\n\nFrom\n(m)\n\n\nTo\n(m)\n\n\nInterval\n(m)\n\n\nEst.
