| ABSTRACT: | Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 14, 2019) - SilverCrest Metals Inc. (TSXV: SIL) (NYSE American: SILV) ("SilverCrest" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the drill results and discovery of the Babi Sur Vein on the Las Chispas Property (the "Property") located in Sonora, Mexico. Recent drilling of the Babi Sur Vein has intersected high-grade silver-gold mineralization along a strike length of approximately 1.5 kilometres (see attached Figures). The Babi Sur Vein is parallel to the Babicanora Vein and approximately 300 metres apart. The Babi Sur Vein will be part of the upcoming updated resource, which will include at least nine (9) of the 30 veins identified to date in the district. The Company's current resource estimate includes only eight of the 30 veins (see "Technical Report and Updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Las Chispas Property, Sonora, Mexico", effective September 13, 2018). N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, and CEO, remarked, "The Babi Sur Vein is now the sixth high-grade vein discovery in the Babicanora area, each parallel to the Babicanora Vein with an average spacing of 150 metres between each. This discovery provides further understanding of our evolving geological model, which we are using to successfully discover additional high-grade mineralization in the district. Within the approximate 1.5 kilometre strike length of the Babi Sur Vein, the high-grade mineralized footprint appears to be related to three structurally-controlled shoots that are similar to other adjacent veins; i.e. Babicanora Norte. We currently have 12 drill rigs working onsite with five at the Babi Sur Vein for resource expansion and seven at the Babicanora Vein for infill drilling. We will continue drilling at the Babi Sur Vein to better define the high-grade footprint, as well as plan for drilling four more untested veins in the Babicanora area." The most significant result for this release was returned from Hole BAS18-31, which intersected 2.2 metres (true width) grading 18.78 grams per tonne ("gpt") gold and 2,147.3 gpt silver, or 3,556 gpt silver equivalent ("AgEq", based on 75 (Ag):1 (Au) calculated using long-term silver and gold prices of US$18.50 per ounce silver and US$1,225 per ounce gold, with average recoveries of 86.6% silver and 98.9% gold). Also noteworthy is Hole BAS18-07 at 2.2 metres grading 4.63 gpt gold and 208.8 gpt silver, or 556 gpt AgEq. The following table summarizes the most significant drill intercepts for this news | |
