(TSXV: VML) (OTCQX: VLMGF) (\"Viscount or \"the Company\") is pleased to announce it has received results from its third phase of the rock chip program at their Silver Cliff property in Colorado.Highlighted results include:28 samples assaying over 100 g/t silver.18 samples assaying over 200 g/t silver.4 samples assaying over 550 g/t silver including 1330 g/t and 737 g/t in the northern Kate area and 692 g/t and 560 g/t in the south Passiflora area.Phase 3 of Viscount Mining's Silver Cliff drill program consisting of 13 holes over 881 meters has recently concluded and all of the core samples have been shipped and are currently being assayed. As a supplemental part of Viscount's phase 3 drilling program, 50 surface rock chip samples were collected around the Kate Deposit, Passiflora and surrounding areas. Most of these samples were gathered from century-year-old, shallow mining pits which are found scattered throughout the Silver Cliff region. A map depicting silver concentration of each of these 124 surface samples including 74 local rock chip samples collected back in 2013 is shown below.Silver Concentration and LocationsTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/2736/101761_586ba9a354d28bb3_002full.jpgTwenty eight (28) of these rock chip samples collected at the surface tested over 100 g/t silver, with the highest testing sample assayed 1330 g/t silver. The presence of such high-grade silver deposits being revealed at the surface by shallow, abandoned pits, shows high promise for an eventual open pit mine. Many of these higher testing samples were collected from two locations: the southwest Passiflora and the northern area of the Kate Deposit and extension.In the southwest Passiflora area, concentrations of silver in collected rock chip samples ranged from 122 G/T to 692 G/T. Though Viscount has done less extensive drilling in the Passiflora, most of the promising mineralization and assay values have come from holes drilled in this southwest region (DDH-20-05 and DDH-21-10). Two of the holes drilled during phase 3 were also located in this area and are currently being assayed. An internal report from CoCa Min...
