(TSXV: SXL)\n ("SLAM") announces results from its recently completed drilling program\n on its Silverjack property in New Brunswick. The final target was the\n Doyle copper-silver zone where hole SJ11-41 intersected a 1.33m\n interval grading 2.33% copper and 43 g/t silver at a depth of 108.1m.\n This was flanked by an interval at 64.47m containing 1.0% copper and 13\n g/t silver over 0.6m and by an interval at 6.6m containing 1.32% copper\n and 54 g/t silver over 0.55m.\n\n\nThe Doyle copper-silver zone is hosted within sediments and limestones\n similar to the high grade Silverjack deposit 1,000m to the east. SLAM\n previously reported high grade drilling results ranging up to 653 g/t\n (19.05 oz/ton) silver, 2.69% copper, 11.9% zinc and 9.8% lead (news\n release 16 February, 2010) at Silverjack.\n\n\nSLAM drilled 2884m in a 22 hole program begun in the fall of 2010. In\n addition to hole SJ11-41 beneath the Doyle zone, this program included\n 14 holes in proximity to the Silverjack deposit. These holes define the\n near surface Silverjack zone over a strike length of 200m. An\n additional 7 holes drilled on a variety of geochemical and geophysical\n targets indicate the widespread presence of copper, silver, lead and/or\n zinc mineralization to the south and west of Silverjack. The Company\n plans additional work...
