[{"type":"text","content":" The new discovery is located approximately 1 km north of the North Drummond area Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 15, 2023) - Kuya Silver Corporation (CSE: KUYA) (OTCQB: KUYAF) (FSE: 6MR1) (the \"Company\" or \"Kuya Silver\") is very pleased to report a drill core intersection of native silver mineralization at its wholly-owned Campbell-Crawford area of the Silver Kings Project, located in the Cobalt, Ontario mining camp (Figure 1, 2). This new discovery (Figure 3) is located within a 1 km radius of five major mines, with a total historic production of 48.2 million ounces of silver (Crown Reserve, Deerhorn, Drummond, King Edward, Nova Scotia). The area is less than 1 km north of the North Drummond area and 750 m southeast of a 1,300 oz/t silver intercept from 1981 underground drilling by Silver Century Explorations Ltd. (Benner 1982). Highlights: Native silver was intersected in the second drill hole at the Campbell-Crawford area and drilling is ongoing along trend Mineralization in this vein appears to be primarily native silver, but minor cobalt mineralization is also recognized Silver stringers occur above and below the silver vein, significantly increasing the potential width of mineralization Drill intersection was made 170 m below the nearest underground workings (1910s exploratory tunnelling) and 230 m below surface The Campbell-Crawford area, despite being surrounded by historic mines and mineral occurrences, has remained virtually untested since exploration occurred in the early twentieth century and the area has never been mined Assay results are pending Figure 1: Metallic silver mineralization in newly-drilled core, Campbell-Crawford area of the Silver Kings Project. Figure 2: Carbonate veining containing semi-massive, native silver mineralization from the Campbell-Crawford area, Silver Kings Project, Cobalt mining camp, Ontario. This interval of NQ diamond drill core was from hole 23-SK-08, which intersected mineralization at 237 m downhole. Visually-identified silver mineralization occurs along approximately 150 cm of core (not true thickness). Two styles of mineralization are observed: semi-massive silver in carbonate veins, and thin (1-2 mm) stringers hosted in fractures within the wall rock. Core box is 150cm (1.5 m) long. Assay information is not yet available. David Lewis, Kuya Silver's Exploration Di...
