Silver Spruce files Environmental Reports for Drill Permitting at the Diamante Au-Ag project, Sonora, Mexico

BEDFORD, NS / ACCESSWIRE / March 7, 2022 / (TSXV:SSE) – Silver Spruce Resources Inc. (“Silver Spruce” or the “Company”) announces the submittal of our Informe Preventivo to the Mexican government environmental authority, SEMARNAT, in application for drilling permits at the Diamante project.

Silver Spruce engaged Green & Ceo, Asesoro Profesional y Securidad en Ambiente (“Green”), of Hermosillo, Sonora to manage the environmental permitting process.

“With our geological mapping and sampling team already on the ground at Diamante, we are pleased that Saul Ruiz and his team have completed and filed the drill permitting documents with SEMARNAT. The filings describe the geological planning and all pertinent environmental parameters requisite to the maiden drilling program proposed for Diamante,” stated Greg Davison, Silver Spruce Vice-President Exploration and Director. “Given the excellent quality of the reporting by Green, we anticipate approval of SEMARNAT permits by late March 2022.”

“The Company is continuing with its ArcGIS compilation for layout and development of access routes, logistics planning, geological staffing and selection of contractors for road and pad preparation, drilling and geochemical analyses,” said Mr. Davison.

The drill-ready 1,057-ha Diamante gold-silver (Au-Ag) property (“Diamante” or the Property”) is located 8 km northwest of the town of Tepoca, and 160 km southeast of the capital city of Hermosillo, eastern Sonora, Mexico (Figure 1). Diamante offers strong precious metal tenor with a polymetallic endowment, multiple quality targets, styles of mineralization, limited artisanal mining and small-scale production, of particular significance for our exploration moving forward, no records of drilling.

Mining and exploration in the surrounding area is very active with adjacent and nearby properties held by Alamos Gold, Argonaut, Agnico Eagle, Evrim, Newmont, Garibaldi, Kootenay Silver and Penoles among others.

Diamante Exploration

Exploration plans were submitted for a minimum 2,000 metre reverse circulation drill program on Diamante 1 and 2 to evaluate four to seven of the principal targets exhibiting high grades of polymetallic Au-Ag-Pb-Zn-Cu mineralization with coincident alteration, shearing and veining. Mineralization is reported visually as pyrite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, argentiferous galena, argentite, hematite and probable metal oxides, carbonates and sulphates, including copper carbonate (malachite), copper sulphates and plumbojarosite.

The targets under consideration for Phase 1 drilling include La Prieta, Aguaje, El Chon-El Chon Oeste, La Olla, Pillado, Calton, El Cumbro and Mezquite-Raizudo targets (see Press Release of April 26, 2021 and January 24, 2022). Disseminated and stockwork mineralization at Anomala Sur and El Puerto offer bulk low-grade targets.
