Highlights include:
8.4 metres of 3.6% zinc, 3.5% lead, 88.58 g/t silver and 0.2%
copper, and
10 metres of 10.69% zinc, 29.9 g/t silver, and 0.2%
copper
Vancouver, British Columbia...Trevali Mining Corporation
("Trevali" or the "Company") (TSX: TV;
BVL: TV; OTCQX: TREVF; Frankfurt: 4TI) is pleased to announce
that exploration drilling of the Santander Pipe has
intersected high-grade, polymetallic mineralization -
underscoring the significant potential within the former
producing deposit located in west-central Peru. Furthermore,
initial reconnaissance drill testing of the early-stage
Capilla target intersected several zones of highly anomalous
base-metal and silver mineralization, approximately
2-kilometres south of the Santander Pipe and is a further
example of the exploration potential along the highly
prospective 17-kilometre long mineral fairways identified to
date.
TARGET DETAILS:
SANTANDER PIPE
Drill hole SAN-192 was designed to test a high-priority
mid-to-deeper level target identified during 3-D
reconstruction and reconciliation studies of the former
producing Santander Pipe (see news release TV-NR-11-19 from
June 21, 2011).
The hole intersected the target between 245 and 265 metres
vertical depth - returning 8.4 metres of polymetallic
mineralization prior to passing through a historic mine
development and into an additional 10-metre zone of strong
zinc mineralization (Table 1 & Figure 1). The hole terminated
in mineralization with the last sample returning 13.7% zinc,
24.8 g/t (0.72 oz/T) and 0.29% copper.
Hole SAN-192 was the fourth successful drill hole testing the
Santander Pipe and the results continue to validate
reconciliation modeling that indicates significant remaining
potential both within and below the formerly producing
Santander Pipe (Table 1 & Figure 1).
