(TSXV: PA) (OTCQB: PLMNF) has completed an expanded soil and subcrop sampling program at its 100%-owned Galena Silver Copper Manganese Project using a portable XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analyzer. Palamina's second XRF sampling program was conducted to expand and further define the extent of the known mineralized zones. Highlights:730 samples collected on second XRF soil sampling campaignTwo distinct northwest southeast mineralized coincident silver, copper, manganese anomalies have been delineated where the southernmost extends over 3km by 1.5km and both trends remain open in both directionsXRF values within the Tertiary volcanics at surface graded up to 440 g/t silver, 0.6 % copper and 2.7% manganese.Andrew Thomson, President of Palamina, commented: \"Our expanded XRF soil sampling has provided further evidence of the presence of a large hydrothermal system in the Tacaza formation volcanic rocks which overlie Cretaceous-aged limestone units at Galena. These XRF soil sampling results, together with prior rock sampling from the Rosa, Gris and Verde zones, support the existence of two strong geochemically anomalous trends. Further XRF soil sampling is underway to further define surface mineralization with a property wide gravity survey planned. Palamina intends to drill test the highest priority CRD target areas to locate mineralization similar to the historic Santa Barbara mine and Berenguela deposits.\"Manganese is the primary pathfinder element at Galena and at the nearby historic Santa Barbara and Berenguela CRD (\"Carbonate Replacement Deposit\") mines. Aftermath Silver Ltd. are currently advancing the Berenguela CRD deposit which hosts a significant silver copper manganese resource and is being advanced to PEA status. Mineralization at Galena occurs along veins, fractures, and within autobreccia matrix, all hosted in Miocene-aged Tacaza Formation volcanic flows, breccia, and tuff. Surface mineralization is accompanied by a low-temperature alteration assemblage consisting of opaline silica and Fe-Mn carbonates. This style of alteration and mineralization is interpreted to represent late remobilization of metal-bearing sulfides originally hosted by the underlying Cretaceous-aged limesto...
