[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solaris Resources Inc. (TSX: SLS; OTCQB: SLSSF) (“Solaris” or “the Company”) is pleased to report assay results from a series of additional holes from mineral resource growth drilling at its Warintza Project (“Warintza” or “the Project”) in southeastern Ecuador. Highlights are listed below, with a corresponding image in Figure 1 and detailed results in Tables 1-2. A dynamic 3D model is available on the Company’s website and will be updated to incorporate the most recent results. Highlights Additional drilling has expanded the growing northeast extension area, which remains open with follow-up and step-out drilling underway. This zone is characterized by near surface, high-grade mineralization, as detailed below, at the northeastern limit of drilling at Warintza Central and represents a priority target for further growth. SLS-54 was collared at the northeastern limit of the grid and drilled into an open volume near surface, returning 356m of 0.73% CuEq¹ from 50m depth within a broader interval of 1,093m of 0.56% CuEq¹ from surface This follows from near surface, high-grade mineralization previously reported (refer to press releases dated February 28, 2022, December 14, 2021 and October 25 & 12, 2021) from: SLS-49 - 396m of 0.70% CuEq¹ from 50m depth within 817m of 0.60% CuEq¹ SLS-48 - 100m of 1.64% CuEq¹ from 50m depth within 852m of 0.56% CuEq¹ SLS-42 - 740m of 0.60% CuEq¹ from 52m depth within 906m of 0.53% CuEq¹ SLS-38 - 244m of 0.70% CuEq¹ from 58m depth within 822m of 0.35% CuEq¹ SLS-34 - 242m of 0.67% CuEq¹ from 52m depth within 660m of 0.47% CuEq¹ SLS-32 - 372m of 0.64% CuEq¹ from 46m depth within 618m of 0.48% CuEq¹ Follow-up drilling from existing platforms is underway, with a 260m northeast step-out platform recently completed and a second platform stepping out further to the northeast under construction Additional drilling has expanded the growing southeast extension area, which remains open in near surface, high-grade mineralization. SLS-52 was collared on the eastern side of the grid and drilled southeast into an open volume near surface, returning 482m of 0.62% CuEq¹ from 96m depth, within a broader interval of 977m of 0.45% CuEq¹ from near surface that infilled drilling at depth SLS-53 was collared from a southeastern platform and drill...
