Tocvan Releases El Picacho Surface Results Identifying Undrilled Au-Ag Target Zone Over 450-meter Trend Highlighted By: 7.2 g/t Au and 36 g/t Ag; 4.5 g/t Au and 197 g/t Ag; and 3.3 g/t Au and 67 g/t Ag.
Tocvan Ventures Corp. (the “Company”) (CSE:TOC); (OTC:TCVNF); (FSE:TV3), is pleased to announce surface sample results from its El Picacho Au-Ag Project in Sonora, Mexico. A surface exploration program has been ongoing since April. At the Murcielago Prospect, a total of 65 samples were collected with 14 samples returning values greater than 0.1 g/t Au (Table 1). Sampling defined a new target area yet to be drilled. The Murcielago Prospect has been confirmed and expanded with Au-Ag values (7.2 g/t Au and 36 g/t Ag) hosted within a brecciated dolomitic limestone unit along a 450-meter west-southwest trend. Significant lead and zinc mineralization is noted to occur along with gold and silver within the prospect area (4.5 g/t Au, 197 g/t Ag, 4.8% Pb and 7.1% Zn). Murcielago Prospect is the only mineral occurrence on the El Picacho property identified to date hosted within Jurassic aged sedimentary rocks. Historic artisanal workings are present following high-grade mineralization from surface in shafts (Plate 1).
