Silver Wolf Exploration Ltd. (TSX.V:SWLF; OTCQB:SWLFF) (“Silver Wolf” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the commencement of drilling on the El Soldado Claim at the Ana Maria Project.
Over the last few months, the team has been integrating additional data into the geological model and drill plan, which has resulted in improved drill targets and a refined proposed drill program at El Soldado. The El Soldado Claim is the primary target at the Ana Maria Property and is interpreted to be a carbonate replacement deposit (CRD)-style target.
The number of planned drill holes has increased to fifteen (15) for a 2,500-metre drill budget. Two drill rigs will be utilized for the drill program and will be mainly testing targets by drilling 120-230 meters long, HQ diameter, diamond drill holes along the NW-SE prospective trend where the various historical workings and mineral occurrences have shown significant precious and base metal mineralization from surface sampling (See Figure 1 and 2). The drill planning will also use geological deposit modelling and target classic CRD alteration and brecciated carbonate host rock features.
In addition, two (2) optional holes have been laid out with planned depths of 200-250 meters to test the SE continuation of the mineralization trend, in case the preliminary results of the previous holes justify deeper target testing. The proposed drill program is subject to changes as the program progresses, and can lead to changes in number, location, depth and orientation of the drilled holes.

“I am thrilled to announce the start of this fully-funded drill campaign” said Peter Latta, President. “Our team on the ground, as well as our technical advisors, have done a tremendous job collecting, analyzing and synthesizing all the data for these targets. I am eager to see the what possible mineralization lies underneath the out-cropping NW-SE trend of old workings and mineral occurrences that we have been able to identify.”
