/CNW/ -
GR Silver Mining Ltd.
("
GR Silver Mining
" or the
"
Company
") (TSXV: GRSL) (OTCQB: GRSLF) (FRANKFURT: GPE) – is pleased to announce the
final batch of underground drilling results from the Plomosas Mine Area as part of the 2022 infill and
exploratory drilling program at the Company's wholly-owned Plomosas Project in
Sinaloa, Mexico
.
The 28 drill holes being reported in this announcement were all drilled from within the historic
Plomosas Mine Area, mainly above the 900 level, targeting the wide polymetallic Plomosas Breccia
in unmined areas close to existing underground development and access (Figure 1). The infill drilling
program achieved its objective to better delineate new mineralized zones and to replace un-sampled
historical holes previously adopted in the 2021 resource estimation.
Highlights from the
underground drilling results
(Down hole widths):
PLIP22-094:
21.7 m
at 158 g/t Ag, 0.05 g/t Au, 1.9%
Pb, 1.8% Zn
and
0.1% Cu
(301 g/t

)
including
:
5.8 m
at 427 g/t Ag, 0.09 g/t Au, 4.9% Pb, 1.4% Zn
and
0.1% Cu
(648 g/t AgEq)
PLIP22-092:
13.0 m
at 161g/t Ag, 0.20 g/t Au, 1.0% Pb, 1.5%
Zn
and
0.1% Cu
(273 g/t
AgEq)
PLIP22-089:
5.4 m
at 325 g/t Ag, 0.54 g/t Au, 3.1% Pb, 2.5% Zn and 0.1% Cu (567g/t AgEq)
including:
2.5 m
at 524 g/t Ag, 0.19 g/t Au, 2.7% Pb, 0.8% Zn
and
0.1% Cu
(660 g/t AgEq)
PLIP22-078:
4.7 m
at 277 g/t Ag, 0.75 g/t Au, 7.5% Pb, 2.1%
Zn
and
0.2% Cu
(666 g/t AgEq)
The drilling results continue to reveal attractive wide high-grade silver-polymetallic mineralization in
unmined areas at the upper levels of the historic underground mine. These results continue to
demonstrate the potential to incorporate wide and attractive polymetallic results into the upcoming
resource estimation, scheduled for completion by the end of Q1|2023.
GR Silver Mining Chairman and CEO,
Eric Zaunscherb
comments,
"
The upcoming resource
estimation is expected to define a significant resource dominated by silver mineralization over
broad widths, relatively close to surface or existing underground infrastructure. We consider these
attributes to contribute to GR Silver Mining's competitive advantages, along with project scale and
prospectivity, and the management and board skills to take the project to the next level. We
anticipate a potential market re-rating related to the resource estimation update, based on scale
and quality of resources.
"
The 186 drill holes (11,750 metres), completed by GR Silver Mining at the Plomosas Mine Area
since the 2021 resource estimation, have added important core drilling in specific areas of the
existing NI 43-101 resource block model, which together with 36,400 metres of historical drilling
completed by First Majestic, Aurcana and IMMSA, provide a higher density and confidence of
information for the resource estimation in progress.
