Bayhorse Silver "encouraged" by drilling at Bayhorse

MR. GRAEME O'NEILL REPORTS

BAYHORSE SILVER UNDERGROUND DRILLING PROGRESS AT THE BAYHORSE SILVER MINE

Bayhorse Silver Inc. has provided an update on the progress of the underground diamond drilling under way beneath the company's silver-copper-antimony-rich Bayhorse silver mine in Oregon, United States.

As drilling progressed beneath the silver-copper-antimony Bayhorse mine deposit, at 112 metres (370 feet) down hole, it entered a strongly brecciated zone that continues to the current depth of 148 m (488 feet). Drilling continues.

The company's senior consulting geologists have suggested the zone is a highly silicified hydrothermal polymictic breccia. It contains multiple rounded, "milled" clasts that probably resulted from high-pressure fluids derived from a buried pluton streaming up through the breccia.

Rock types that make up the bulk of the breccia include: rhyolite, andesite, quartzite, meta sedimentary rocks and granite.

An XRF (X-ray fluorescence) field analysis shows elevated levels of copper, zinc and lead. The reader is cautioned that the XRF field analysis needs to be confirmed by a formal laboratory 35-element assay. The core is in the process of being split and logged prior to submission for laboratory analysis.

The Bayhorse exploration model holds that the silver-copper-antimony-rich mineralization at the Bayhorse silver mine could have its source in underlying shallow granites that may host porphyry copper mineralization.

Bayhorse chief executive officer Graeme O'Neill commented: "The drilling entering into a highly siliceous brecciated zone, and the presence of elevated levels of copper, is very encouraging. Drilling is ongoing, and further updates will be forthcoming."
