(TSXV: TIN) (OTCQX: TINFF) (\"Tincorp\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce the first drill hole assay results for the Porvenir tin-zinc-silver (Sn-Zn-Ag) Project (the \"Project\"), Oruro, Bolivia. Tincorp is in the process of completing seven drill holes totaling 2,500 m for its 2023 drill program at the Project. Hole DPOV0001 intercepted 284 g/t silver equivalent (AgEq) (0.60% Sn, 1.11% Zn, 6 g/t Ag, and 0.07% Cu) over 120.35 m including 1022 g/t AgEq (2.25% Sn, 3.35% Zn, 21 g/t Ag, and 0.20% Cu) over 21.62 m.The principal objective of this first phase of Tincorp's drilling was to test the depth and lateral extension of the NNW-trending Condor Nasa structure. Condor Nasa is evident in Figure 1 by the alignment of historic workings and labeled as NWV1. In addition to encountering mineralization in NWV1, drilling also intersected several other veins, in the hanging wall and footwall of NWV1, interpreted to be NS-trending structures (NSV, NSV1, NSV2). Hole DPOV0001 is a 25 m down-dip step-out of historic Dowa Mining drill hole PV-41 (0.66% Sn, 1.44% Zn, and 6 g/t Ag or 322.8 g/t AgEq over 60.2 m).In addition to the main NWV1, there are multiple north-south veins (NSV1 and NSV 2) (Table 1), which will open up more drilling targets, therefore, more potential for the Project. The highest interval of 1022 g/t AgEq (2.25% Sn, 3.35% Zn, 21 g/t Ag, and 0.20% Cu) over 21.62 m is related to the new north-south extending vein, NSV2, which corresponds to extensive historical surface diggings (see Figures 1 & 2). Figure 3 illustrates a high-grade section of DPOV0001.Table 1.
