Toachi Mining Inc. announced results from on-going drilling at its La Plata gold-rich volcanogenic massive sulphide project in Ecuador. Hole CMLP-17-56 intersected 10.78 metres (m) of massive and disseminated sulphide mineralization grading 6.35 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, 54.32 g/t silver, 9.64% copper, 8.70% zinc and 0.43% lead from 16.22 m in the La Mina North zone of the La Mina deposit. The intersection above is within a wider 19.26 m intercept grading 4.02 g/t gold, 34.24 g/t silver, 6.53% copper, 5.10% zinc and 0.27% lead from 11.16 m. Hole CMLP-17-56 was drilled up dip and near surface on the same section as CMLP-17-38 which successfully extended Zone 1 of the La Mina North zone to depth and towards the south. CMLP-17-38 intersected 3.58 m grading 2.38 g/t gold, 93.3 g/t silver, 15.92% copper, 2.31% zinc and 0.16% lead. The drill program, which began in August 2016, is designed to validate the historic drilling database at the La Plata project. The drilling program is also intended to infill and expand known resources in the main La Mina VMS lenses leading to the completion of a National Instrument 43-101 resource estimate later this year. Hole CMLP-17-56 was collared in the southern part of the La Mina North block and was designed to test the near surface and southern extension of the VMS mineralization in Zone 1. This hole was successful in identifying high grade VMS mineralization and extended the mineralization up dip, towards the surface.
