Silver One Resources Inc. announced the discovery of additional copper and silver prospects with up to 1,240 g/t Ag and 7.79% Cu in selected samples. These samples were collected in the southern portion of the property where multiple copper and silver showings suggest potential for the discovery of porphyry related copper-silver mineralization. This part of the project is immediately northeast of the Freeport McMoRan Miami copper mine and the recently discovered Ocelot porphyry project being actively explored by BHP. Additionally, the structures thought to host the large silver vein fragments (weighing up to 417 pounds and estimated to contain up to 70% silver) are permitted for drilling. The company is targeting third quarter of 2024 for this drill program. Highlights: New copper showings on recently acquired claims highlight the potential for porphyry related copper mineralization immediately along strike from the Freeport McMoRan Miami copper mine and the recently discovered Ocelot porphyry copper project being explored by BHP; Highly anomalous copper values in selected samples range between 0.1% to 7.79% and silver between 1 g/t and 1,240 g/t containing locally abundant lead and zinc in veins and breccias. New silver fragments discoveries reported in the company's news release of May 15, 2024 extend the area of potential silver vein mineralization for 600+ metres to the west of the previously discovered 417 lb (189 kg) angular and unabraded vein fragment that was estimated to contain over 70% silver and an 18.7 lb (8.5 kg) specimen assaying 459,000 g/t (14,688 oz/t) silver. The project is permitted for drilling on these potentially high-grade silver targets. Elevated copper and silver values with abundant manganese, iron oxides and local base metals (lead and zinc), are representative of the mineralization in veins, hydrothermal breccias, and fracture systems that are widespread throughout the southern part of the property. These values along with elevated molybdenum (to 239.9 ppm in sample 41558) and local chlorite hydrothermal alteration suggest the presence of intrusive centered hydrothermal systems and are distal manifestations potentially related to the margins of porphyry copper deposits. Examples of these manifestations can be
seen at the Silver Queen and Silver King mines which are the surface expression of the Magma and Resolution copper deposits, and the Old Dominion vein which is the surface expression of the Ocelot porphyry copper discovery. Polymetallic epithermal veins similar to those found in the property also occur in the periphery of other copper deposits such as Butte Montana. Silver One plans to drill the high-grade silver targets. It will also continue the geologic reconnaissance mapping and sampling of the new claims staked in October and December 2023.
