NEW YORK, NY/ ACCESSWIRE / July 27, 2015 / U.S. Precious Metals, Inc. (OTCQB: USPR) announces that it has completed a total of 30 drill holes to date under its 2015 drilling campaign. USPR expects to complete the first 5000 meter of the planned campaign by months end. The drilling campaign has focused on definition drilling within the Main Zone and the southern Main Zone with the goal in increasing the resource estimate while discovering additional mineralized material.
As mentioned in our prior press release, drill holes 12 through 17 targeted the southern portion of the Main Zone with our efforts focused on drilling exposed quartz sulfide veins on the surface and defining those veins at depth. Some significant intercepts from each of the drill holes as mentioned here, are noted in the table below.
Mr. Dave Burney, the company's chief geologist stated, " Drill holes 12 through 17 intersected exceptional grades of gold, silver and copper and in particular, drill hole 15 which has grades up to 50.93 g/t gold, 372.27 g/t silver and 13.46 % copper." Additionally he said, "We are encouraged with the results of the first 5000 meters and delighted by the performance of the employees and contractors that have been professional and diligent in their efforts during the first phase of the 2015 drilling campaign.

The Company has received the independent assay results from ACT Labs, Zacatecas, Mexico for these drill holes.
