Great Panther Confirms Depth Continuity of High Grade Mineralization at Guanajuato Including 2,017 g/t Silver And 8.16 g/t Gold Over 10.3 Metres in Underground Sampling
GREAT PANTHER RESOURCES LIMITED (TSX: GPR) is pleased to announce that new underground development and deep diamond drilling at the Company's wholly-owned Guanajuato Mine in Guanajuato, Mexico have confirmed the depth extension of high grade gold and silver mineralization. New underground development on the 430 metre level, 13 metres below the old workings just southeast of the Cata Shaft, has cut the extension of a zone known as the Cata 'Clavo', while the first hole of the deep underground drilling program has intersected two silica breccia zones, approximately 13 metres apart, beginning at the 460 metre level.
The Cata ramp, which starts on the 345 level, has been extended from the 417 level (deepest previous workings) down to the 430 level to investigate the down-dip continuity of the Cata Clavo, and drifts and cross-cuts have been started on that level to sample the mineralization. Channel sampling (16 samples) of the advancing face of a central drift (#430-690 drift), driven parallel to the strike of the lower zone returned 0.63 g/t gold and 202 g/t silver over an average width of 3.63 metres and strike length of 38.3 metres. At the same time, a small cross-cut, driven perpendicular to the strike of the lower zone in the footwall direction, encountered continuous and higher grade mineralization that has been sampled on both walls (15 samples) over a length of 10.30 metres and averaged 8.16 g/t gold and 2,017 g/t silver.

Auf Grund der Geologie nehmen hydrothermale Vererzungen zur Tiefe hin in aller Regel zu. Wenn schon in alten Zeiten Erzausbrüche bis an die Obefläche gelangt sind, lässt das für die Tiefe immer viel erhoffen. Die Funde von GPR beweisen dies ein weiteres Mal.
Das Schöne an der Sache: GPR ist bereits Produzent, hat kostengünstige Arbeitskräfte und Eisenbahnanschluss in Guanajuato. Und die 150-jährige Bar der Silberbarone am Zocalo ...8)
