Avino Silver Hits 1,638 g/t Silver Over 7.90 Metres True Width At La Preciosa

Avino Silver & Gold Mines (TSX: ASM) this morning released assay results for four drill holes conducted at their La Preciosa project in Mexico.

The four holes were drilled to twin previously conducted drilling that intercepted the La Gloria and Abundancia veins as part of an effort to verify geometry of the veins. Both veins are known due contain pinch and swell geometry, alongside nugget-type mineralization.

Highlights from the results include::

“The larger widths encountered at both La Gloria and Abundancia were a welcome surprise underscoring that there is still much to learn about this deposit despite the 1,500 drill holes and substantial exploration investment performed by previous operators,” commented David Wolfin, CEO of Avino.

Intercept grades encountered from drilling are said to be “significantly” higher than the average grades outlined within the current resource estimate for La Preciosa. Drilling overall encountered the La Gloria vein in all four holes, the Abundancia vein in three holes, and unnamed veins within three holes.
