[{"type":"text","content":"Southern Silver Returns High-Grade Silver from the North Felsite Zone Including: 1.6 Metre Averaging 675g/t Ag, 0.3% Cu, 5.5% Pb and 3.4% Zn (1,008g/t AgEq) at Cerro Las MinitasVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 25, 2022) - Southern Silver Exploration Corp. (TSXV: SSV) (\"Southern Silver\") reported today that drill results continue to extend silver-polymetallic mineralization laterally to the east and west in the North Felsite Target on the Cerro Las Minitas project, Durango, Mexico. The North Felsite target is located on the eastern side of the Cerro and wraps around the northern edge of the Central intrusion where it transitions into the North Skarn target area (Figure 1). The new drilling now confirms the continuity of mineralization with previously modelled mineral resources in the Mina La Bocona and the Skarn Front deposits, continues to identify gold enrichment in several hanging wall intercepts outboard of the main skarn target at the North Felsite zone and has identified high-grade copper mineralization in the North Skarn target area. Drilling highlights from the North Felsite target area include:a 1.5 metre interval (1.0 metre est. TT.) averaging 165g/t Ag, 0.1g/t Au, 11.5% Cu, 0.1% Pb and 0.4% Zn (1463g/t AgEq) within a 4.0 metre interval (2.6 metre est. TT.) averaging 77g/t Ag, 4.4% Cu, 0.2% Pb and 0.9% Zn (617g/t AgEq) from drill hole 21CLM-191; a 1.6 metre interval (1.3 metre est. TT) averaging 675g/t Ag, 0.3g/t Cu, 5.5% Pb and 3.4% Zn (1008g/t AgEq) within a 4.8 metre interval (3.8 metres est. TT) averaging 352g/t Ag, 0.1% Cu, 2.4% Pb and 1.6% Zn (500g/t AgEq) from drill hole 22CLM-188; anda 0.7 metre interval (0.6 metre est. TT) averaging 499g/t Ag, 0.1g/t Au, 0.4% Cu, 4.6% Pb and 1.5% Zn (759g/t AgEq) within a 2.2 metre interval (1.9 metres est. TT) averaging 162g/t Ag, 0.6g/t Au, 0.3% Cu, 1.5% Pb and 0.6% Zn (314g/t AgEq) from drill hole 22CLM-187;Strong gold-enrichment, up to 7.0g/t Au over 0.6m (est. TT.), is identified in several hangingwall intercepts (see Table 1) correlating to zones of mineralization outboard of the more typical, silver-enriched polymetallic mineralization of the main skarn horizon located adjacent to the central monzonite intrusion. Two of the drill holes, 22CLM-186 and -187, tested the eastern margin of the North Felsite zone returning anomalous and high-grade intercep...
