Cascada Silver Announces Agua Amarga Project Drilling Results
TORONTO, Ontario, July 21, 2021 – Cascada Silver Corp. (CSE:CSS) ("Cascada") announces that the 710 metre, Agua Amarga reverse circulation drilling program returned elevated zinc assay results including 3.4% zinc over 2 metres in drill hole RCAA-03 but returned no significant silver results. Drill hole RCAA-03 (see Figure 1) cut the targeted mineralized structure at a depth of 120 metres, however, the system had transitioned from the near surface, historically mined silver mineralization to base metal mineralization (zinc) at depth.
“These results are extremely disappointing as we had targeted the extension of silver mineralization below the areas of historical silver mining”, said Carl Hansen, Cascada’s CEO. “While the zonation of vein systems from precious metal dominated to base metal dominated is not uncommon, for that transition to occur over such a relatively short vertical distance is unusual and unexpected. We will revaluate our exploration model with respect to silver and review the base metal potential of Agua Amarga considering the presence of historical lead zinc mines on the property. In the meantime, considering our strong balance sheet with approximately $2.0 million in cash, Cascada’s geologists will continue with their examinations of Chilean and Peruvian opportunities submitted to us for review.”
