(TSX-V: MRZ, Frankfurt: M8R) is pleased to announce that Phase 1 diamond drilling has commenced on\n its 100% owned, high-grade Virginia Silver Project located in the\n prolific epithermal Province of Santa Cruz, Argentina.\n\n\nThe first phase 1,500 metre drill program of approximately 25 shallow\n holes will focus on the 2,200 metre long, high-grade Julia Vein, one of\n 8 mineralized veins identified to date at Virginia. Within the Julia\n Vein, higher-grade segments have been recognized that contain\n outcropping and subcropping mineralization with average grades of 919\n g/t silver over a minimum true width of 1.78 metres with a cumulative\n strike length of 843 metres (Figure 1; see news release of April 13, 2010). Surface sampling of the Julia\n Vein has returned an average of 1.8 metres minimum width, containing\n 805 g/t silver from 58 saw cut channel lines. Some of the better\n channel results from the Julia Vein include 3.74 metres at 1,592 g/t\n silver and 0.7 metres at 4,070 g/t silver.\n\n\n"Initiation of drilling at the Virginia Silver Project is an important\n step for Mirasol. The Company is pleased to be testing the Julia Vein\n within the first year of its discovery in order to validate the high\n grade silver values returned from systematic channel sampling of this\n visually impressive vein system," stated Mir...
