OTC: DNCVF
Defiance Silver Corp (“Defiance” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has received
all the necessary permits to resume drilling on its San Acacio Silver deposit located in Zacatecas
State, Mexico . As per the Company’s release dated September 7, 2016, t he drill permit will
allow for 60,000m of drilling and is valid for a period of 4.5 years.
Over the last few months, as the permitt ing was in process, management has been able to closely
review results from the previous drilling programs to try to get a better understanding of the
nature of the San Acacio deposit. With this review and, the granting of the drilling permit,
Defiance now plans to finalize a drilling program to follow up on the successful results of its
most recent drilling that defined wide zones of mineralization grading in excess of 200 g/t AgEq.
The permit covers drilling below the 1.2km long San Acacio deposit as wel l as along the
underexplored 900m San Acacio Extension where the Veta Grande vein has only been defined to
shallow depths.
“We are very pleased with the granting of this drill permit as it provides long -term certainty to
our exploration efforts to aggress ively expand the San Acacio Silver deposit ”, stated Bruce
Winfield, President and CEO of Defiance Silver Corp. “As one of the more prolific past
producing silver m ines in Mexico, we are hopeful that this work will allow us to increase our
knowledge of the deposit as well as expand the resource.”
Having secured the required surface rights (see press release dated August 23, 2016) and the
necessary drilling permits, Defiance will now finalize its program for the 1.2km of vein strike
length that hosts the Sa n Acacio deposit. The results of this work will ultimately allow the
Company to expand its exploration efforts to the 4.4 km of the vein that has yet to see modern
exploration.
