VANCOUVER, BC – Victory Resources Corp. (the “Company”) is pleased to announce the initial results on their ongoing underground work program conducted on the Company’s La Reforma property located north of Choix, Sinaloa State, Mexico.
The results of initial underground sampling at the La Reforma project have been received. The samples were collected from channels cut across vein material in skarn at the 690 level. From 29 samples taken along the drift over a length of 80 metres show weighted average values as follows:
Silver: 231.48 grams per tonne
Copper: 0.84% tonne
Lead: 6.00% tonne
Zinc: 14.12% tonne
Level 690 was also the site of limited stoping. In addition to the samples taken along the drift, samples were also taken from accessible faces in the stopes bringing the total number of samples to 44. The weighted average values of all samples taken from Level 690 to date are as follows:
Silver: 183.00 grams per tonne
Copper: 0.73%/ tonne
Lead: 4.32%/ tonne
Zinc: 10.94%/ tonne
It should be pointed out that samples taken in the stoping area are not regularly spaced due to difficulty of access. Further sampling will require the use of ladders. Level 690 has an estimated back (height) of 20m.
This initial underground sampling is part of a continuing program of the company evaluate the resource potential of the La Reforma property. Additional sampling is planned for the lower levels at Level 680, Level 650 and Level 620 over a cumulative strike length of 350m and average backs (height) of some 60m. These levels are presently accessible through existing portals. This sampling program will be augmented by surface and underground diamond drilling. Underground drilling stations can be constructed at minimum cost.
“We are very encouraged by the consistent results from the underground sampling especially over a significant length of 80 metres,” stated Wally Boguski, President and CEO. “The company will continue to advance the planned drilling and sampling work programs. These results have demonstrated the same highly anomalous results for Copper, Silver, Zinc and Lead as previous historic results and bring the company a significant step closer to the goal of determining a resource estimate.”
