WILDCAT ANNOUNCES PROJECT UPDATE AND DRILL RESULTS
Wildcat Silver Corp. has released the results for
eight additional holes completed on the company's Hermosa property
located in Santa Cruz county, Arizona. Results continue to support the
expansion and upgrading of the current Hermosa resource. The company
is also announcing that it now expects to issue its updated resource
estimate and preliminary economic assessment for the Hermosa project in
early 2012.
Highlights
HDS-214, located in the east-central portion of the Hermosa orebody,
demonstrates significant silver and manganese mineralization. This hole
encountered three intervals, with the upper interval returning 9.1
metres of 395.2 grams per tonne silver, 8.46 per cent manganese, 0.15 per cent zinc, 2.96 per cent lead and 0.22 per cent
copper.
HDS-216, also located in the east-central portion of the Hermosa orebody, returned 10.7 metres of 310 g/t silver, 10.81 per cent manganese, 0.17 per cent zinc, 4.36 per cent lead and 0.19 per cent
copper.
HDS-203, located in the northeast-central portion of the Hermosa orebody, encountered three intervals of mineralization. The middle zone
returned an extensive interval of 35.1 metres of 160.4 g/t silver, 12.45 per cent manganese, 4.52 per cent zinc, 2.79 per cent lead and 0.26 per cent
copper.
The company continues to drill on the Hermosa property, and remains
focused on expanding the size and upgrading the quality of the current
resource. Wildcat's current cash position remains strong and the
company expects it will be sufficient to finance its planned activities
through 2012.
A summary of the drill results is provided in the attached table.
