Kootenay Silver (KTN) has received the latest high-grade silver results from its phase four drilling program at the Columba Project in Mexico.

High-grade silver was found in both targets, along with trace amounts of zinc and lead. The company stated the results confirmed an extension from known mineralization beneath existing drilling at the D Vein and F Vein targets, and additional results are pending.

Kootenay Silver’s current diamond drill exploration program is planned to cover 15,000 metres and will step out on mineralized veins along strike and to depth within the project.

“Each new batch of results continues to justify our excitement… We are seeing both the D and F Vein expanding with additional drilling and are planning additional work to evaluate the many high priority targets that remain undrilled,” Kootenay Silver’s President and CEO, James McDonald, said.

According to the company, the D Vein is part of a much larger system and remains open in all directions. The hole reported from this target is designed to test high-priority veins at Columba.

Kootenay Silver stated the F Vein is located 600 metres northeast of the D Vein and has been mapped for over 1,000 metres on surface. Underground mining was reported to have been completed on F Vein over six levels to a vertical depth of more than 160 metres.

Kootenay Silver Inc. (KTN) is unchanged trading at $0.11 per share as of 2:37 p.m. ET.
