[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC, July 27, 2022 /CNW/ - Outcrop Silver & Gold Corporation (TSXV: OCG) (OTCQX: OCGSF) (DE: MRG1) (\"Outcrop\") is pleased to announce the results from three additional drill holes within the Naranjos vein on its 100% owned Santa Ana high-grade silver-gold project in Colombia. Los Naranjos is 350 metres to the northwest of and parallel to the Santa Ana vein system. Los Naranjos shows abundant and locally coarse native silver and electrum (news release July 14, 2022). Los Naranjos is 200 metres wide, extends from the surface to 250 metres depth, and is open in all directions. Eighteen holes have been drilled in Los Naranjos to date; eight have returned high-grade assays, and three holes have pending assays. On a gram x metre basis, the new results from Los Naranjos provide the thickest and highest-grade drill intercept to date on the Santa Ana project. Highlights 6.93 metres of 2,184 grams equivalent silver per tonne, including 1.06 metres of 8,786 grams equivalent silver per tonne intercepted in DH270. The results reported in this news release for Los Naranjos provide the thickest and highest-grade drill intercept (by grams x metres) to date on the Santa Ana Project. Delineation drilling results to date show Los Naranjos extends from the surface to 250 metres in depth, is 200 metres wide and is open in all directions (Figure 2). Reflecting its high silver-gold grades, Los Naranjos commonly shows native silver, coarse electrum and abundant silver-bearing sulfosalts. \"We are incredibly pleased with our recent results from Naranjos,\" commented Guillermo Hernandez, Vice President of Exploration. \"We believe mineralization can be expanded significantly along the surface and at depth. Intercepts pending assay show locally abundant silver-sulfosalts in core, indicating Naranjos will continue to provide high-grade assays.\" \"Drilling on Santa Ana continues to deliver large high-grade shoots,\" comments Joseph Hebert, Chief Executive Officer. \"Notably, the best holes project to date have been Maras in June and now Naranjos in July. We should be able to consistently increase resource potential as we test the virgin Aguilar vein system, which is notable for its thickness and high grades in historic adits, and our Frias Mine vein system, which has historic production of 7.8 million ounces at 1.3 kilogram...
