OCG Shares Strong Drilling Results from Santa Ana Project Outcrop Silver & Gold Corp. (OCG.v or OCGSF for U.S. investors) recently shared significant drilling outcomes at the Jimenez target within its fully owned Santa Ana silver project in Colombia.
Key Drilling Results at Jimenez
Recent exploration has delivered some of the most notable intercepts in this phase of drilling, underscoring the project's potential for resource expansion. A newly discovered vein and continued testing of parallel structures contribute to these promising findings.
Top results include one hole which intercepted 0.32m at 1,288 g/t silver equivalent (AgEq) within a broader 3.58m section grading 131 g/t AgEq.
The newly discovered Jimenez North vein also returned 0.30m at 789 g/t AgEq, part of a 2.04m interval grading 145 g/t AgEq.
Structural Insights and Vein Continuity
The drilling program at Jimenez has validated a 500m strike length and a depth extension reaching 200m. The presence of parallel and subparallel veins has been confirmed, enhancing the potential for additional high-grade discoveries and expanding the known resource area.
Geological Context
The Jimenez target consists of parallel vein systems stretching approximately 500m along the strike. Historical mining evidence aligns with the current findings, pointing to mineralized quartz veins containing argentite, a primary silver sulfide associated with high-grade silver zones at Santa Ana.
Current and Future Drilling Initiatives
Outcrop Silver is maintaining momentum with two drilling rigs currently active at both the Jimenez and La Ye targets. The company is also preparing to initiate exploration at the Los Mangos target. The focus remains on extending mineralization along strike and depth while evaluating newly found structures to add to Santa Ana’s resource potential.
Strategic Development
The confirmation of the Jimenez North vein and drilling continuity aligns with Outcrop Silver’s resource growth strategy. These recent results highlight the high-grade and broader mineral potential of the project, reinforcing its significance as exploration advances.
Further updates are anticipated as Outcrop Silver continues to progress its Santa Ana project.
