Recommences 2020 Drilling at the Philadelphia High-Grade Gold-Silver Vein Property
Mohave County, Arizona
Vancouver, British Columbia / March 09, 2020 – Arizona Silver Exploration Inc. (the "Company" or
“Arizona Silver”) (TSX -V: AZS) (OTCQB: AZASF) is pleased to announce that it will recommence drilling
at the 100% owned Philadelphia high-grade gold-silver vein property the week of March 9, 2020.
Q1 2020 Drilling Program
Harris Exploration Drilling completed 2160 feet (659 metres) of reverse circulation (“RC”) drilling initially
in nine holes on the project. Six of the holes intersected good vein intercepts of 15 -60 feet (4.5 -18.3)
metres, all with demonstrated epithermal vein and “boiling textures”. True widths of the intercepts are
estimated to be roughly half the drill lengths given the -60 degree dip of the vein and the vertical nature
of the drill holes. Five of these six holes contained visible gold in the RC cuttings within the vein
intercepts. Two of the other holes hit the Arabian fault, which hosts the Philadelphia vein, but with no
visible vein mineralization along it. One of the holes hit the footwa ll granite and was terminated at 100
feet. All of the holes were drilled through 20 -65 feet (6 -20 metres) of unconsolidated alluvial cover
which conceals the bedrock geology in the location of the drill ho les. Assays of these holes remain
pending.
All five of the vein intercepts with visible gold in cuttings lie within the magnetic low and are overlain by
strongly clay-altered volcanic units.
A follow-up drilling campaign of 10 -20 holes is being initiated to pursue the open strike and dip
extensions to the vein intercepts reported herein. Eleven of these holes are already permitted . An
additional 20 holes have been permitted with the US Bureau of land Management and the additional
bond requirement has been p osted. A Notice of Intent has also been submitted to the Arizona
Department of Water Resources to cover these additional 20 holes.
Greg Hahn, VP Exploration, and a Certified Professional Geologist (#7122) is the Qualified Person under
NI43-101 responsible for preparing and reviewing the data contained in this press release.
