MAYA continues to intersect wide high grade zones near surface of the Eastern Zone at its Zgounder silver mine in Morocco

26.02.2020  |  GlobeNewswire

MONTREAL, Feb. 26, 2020 - Maya Gold & Silver Inc. (“Maya” or the “Corporation”) (TSX: MYA) is pleased to announce results of its 2019 Reverse Circulation drilling program at its Zgounder silver mine in the Kingdom of Morocco.

The Corporation reports assay results from 26 of the 28 ( RC ) drill holes, totaling 3035 meters. Other results of the on-going RC 2020 program are pending and will be disclosed once the results are received, compiled and verified.

The assay results reported herein are provided in Table 1 below and include the following highlights:

Highlights:

  • 12 m at 1112 g/t Ag in the Hole ZG-RC-19-11 from 51 m to 63 m.
  • 15 m at 492 g/t Ag in the Hole ZG-RC-19-17 from 10 m to 25 m.
  • 21 m at 454 g/t Ag in the Hole ZG-RC-19-18 from 82 m to 103 m.
  • 6 m at 645 g/t Ag in the Hole ZG-RC-19-19 from 5 m to 11 m.

The true thickness of the intervals are estimated to be 70% of true width and assays are uncapped. The 2019 RC program was designed to validate the continuity of known mineral zones and evaluate the resource potential of other zones in same setting of the easterner part of the deposit. Highlights of holes: 12, 13, 16, 20, 21, 23, & 25 were disclosed on press release of January 9th 2019.

“We are more pleased with the RC exploration drilling program as it continues to deliver positive results in our preparation for the open pit extraction as scheduled in our mine development. As previously mentioned it is providing detailed information on the extent of the mineralized structures (orientation and thickness) close to the surface and confirm the extension of the existing mineralized envelopes. It should increase the quality and extent of silver mineral resources within the existing pit-constrained resources highlighted in the PEA of February 5th 2018”. Said Noureddine Mokaddem Chairman & CEO of Maya Gold & Silver.

The assay results are for an interval of 1 meter sample. The sample lengths reported here are between 70% and 75% of true horizontal widths. The grades herein are reported as uncapped values. Minimum interval length is 3 meters over 50 g/t.

Holes ZG-RC-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9 have intersected silver mineralization below 50 g/t in attempt to expand mineralized zones to the south with and within the rhyolite and are excluded of the interval list. Hole ZG-RC-12Bis had no sample return due to faulting and Hole 8 was not drilled. Hole ZG-RC-13-1 & ZG-RC-19-24 assay results are pending.

The RC samples were sent to the independent laboratory Afrilab based in Marrakech (Morocco) for preparation and assaying.

Quality Control / Quality Assurance (QA/QC)

The direction and inclination of the RC drillholes were oriented in a perpendicular direction to mineralization. The RC samples were split at the mine site. After drying, each sample was divided in two parts using the Jones riffle separator. One part was placed in a tightly sealed plastic bag with a laboratory identification number and grouped in sealed plastic buckets which were sent to the Afrilab laboratory. The remaining material is kept for archive in the core shack.

At Afrilab the RC samples are crushed to have d80 passing 2mm and afterward separated with a Jones riffle splitter to have 100 grams which is pulverized to have a pulp d80 of 75 microns Multi acid digestion and Atomic Absorption reading for Cu, Pb and Zn grade determination. Fire assay is used for Ag. The standards and blanks used are in line with expected results.
