Arizona Silver Provides Update ON Sycamore Canyon GOLD-Silver Project
ARIZONA SILVER PROVIDES UPDATE ON SYCAMORE CANYON GOLD-SILVER
PROJECT
Vancouver, British Columbia / July 31, 2018 – Arizona Silver Exploration Inc. (the "Company" or
“Arizona Silver”) (TSX-V: AZS) (OTCQB: AZASF) is pleased to provide an update on progress on the
Sycamore Canyon gold-silver epithermal property located in Graham County, Arizona.
Spot Coring of Selected Outcrops Provides Details of Mineralized Breccia
Spot cores of 3” diameter samples, ranging from 4 inches to 8 inches long, were collected from selected
outcrops of mineralized breccia, which demonstrate detailed textures and loci of gold and silver
mineralization across th e strike length of the outcrop. Nine cores in total were drilled, eight in mineralized
breccia and one in strongly argillized wall rock. The eight cores in mineralized breccia contained silver and
gold values from 19.8 gpt to 553 gpt Ag and 0.05 to 3.04 gpt Au. Hand-held spot coring was only successful
in solid outcrop . Strongly fractured or oxidized outcrops, which is where many of the higher metal values
were detected in previous surface samples , were inaccessible due to steep grades. Spot core samples are
selected samples and are not necessarily representative of the mineralization hosted on the property.
Permitting Progress
The Company has also received provisional approval of its Right of Way application for commercial access
across State of Arizona Trust lands to access the claims, subject to completion of an archeological survey
along the existing access and proposed right -of-way. The Right-of-Way across state lands is issued for a 10 -
year period and is renewable and amendable to accommodate the future growth potential of the project. The
Company has also received comments and questions from the US Forest Service (“USFS”) to our initial Plan
of Operations and is preparing responses to the USFS comments and questions to continue to advanc e the
permitting process. A revised Plan of Operations is anticipated will be submitted before the first of August.
Mike Stark, Chairman, said, “We continue to advance the project in accordance with our exploration
program and look forward to being able to drill the property once in receipt of all permits”.
QA/QC and Analytical Procedures
All rock samples were transported under strict chain of custody to the ALS Mineral s sample preparation
facility in Tucson, Arizona. Each sample was crushed to 70% passing 2 mm, a 250 -gram split is taken and
pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns, subject to a four -acid digestion, and then analyzed by ICP/MS for a
33-element package includ ing silver, lead, zinc, and copper, and for atomic absorption gold analyses.
Samples over 100 ppm silver and over 10,000 ppm lead, zinc, or copper are re-analyzed using ICP for higher
concentration levels. Samples over 10 ppm Au are re-assayed using 1-assay ton fire assay methods.
