(\"Zacatecas Silver\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV: ZAC) (OTC Markets: ZCTSF) (\n \n Frankfurt\n \n : 7TV) is pleased to announce it has completed first pass geological mapping of the San Manuel Vein System. The San Manuel vein system lies immediately to the west of the San Gill Breccia System which was the focus of the company news release dated\n \n April 19, 2021\n \n .\n \n \n \n Highlights:\n \n \n \n \n \n Multiple oxidized, silver-base metal mineralized veins defined over a strike length of at least three kilometres.\n \n \n \n \n Eight vein sets have been defined to date which are associated with a zone of extension that is at least\n \n 600 m\n \n wide.\n \n \n \n \n It is common for veins to bifuracate and/or form sigmoidal offsets — such dilational zones represent robust drill targets.\n \n \n \n \n Only 7 angled diamond holes drilled by a previous operator — of which 4 were focused on a\n \n 300 m\n \n strike length of only two veins. Most of the system has never been drill tested.\n \n \n \n \n Two of the historical diamond drill hole intersected significant mineralization: one hole intersected\n \n 1.65 m\n \n @ 0.36 g/t Au and 437 g/t Ag; the other intersected\n \n 4.16 m\n \n @ 1.14 g/t Au, 128 g/t Ag, 2.23% Pb and 1.86% Zn.\n \n \n \n \n \n San Manuel\n \n \n \n The San Manuel vein system is in the southern part of the Zacatecas Property. The veins at San Manuel are generally oriented northeast-southwest — the typical orientation of silver-base metal intermediate sulphidation veins throughout the\n \n Zacatecas\n \n region. Veins roll towards an east-west orientation where they contact the north-south San Gill breccia.\n \n \n Reconnaissance mapping has confirmed the presence of multiple steeply dipping veins. Historical artisanal workings and shafts are common within th...
