VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwire - March 12, 2012) - Southern Silver Exploration Corp. (TSX VENTURE:SSV) (FRANKFURT: SEG) (the "Company") reported today that it plans to issue up to 16,700,000 units in a non-brokered private placement at a price of $0.12 per unit to raise $2,004,000. Each unit will consist of one common share and one share purchase warrant, with each warrant exercisable to purchase one additional common share for a period of three years at an exercise price of $0.17 per share.
Net proceeds from the Offering will be utilized for exploration and property maintenance expenses incurred on the Cerro Las Minitas project in Mexico and the Oro project in the USA.
Drilling in 2011 and early 2012 at the Cerro Las Minitas project, has delineated a 600 metres strike-length of the newly discovered Blind zone to a depth of up to 300 metres and has started testing the adjacent El Sol zone. Other targets continue to be developed through surface exploration and drill testing.
The Company plans 20,000 metres of core drilling in 2012, with the aim of completing a NI 43-101 compliant resource on these first targets by Q4 of 2012. This will be the initial milestone toward the Company's goal of delineating a larger, multi-million tonne, high-grade, silver-enriched polymetallic resource on the project.
The drill program on Oro will commence after completion of a ground geophysical survey over the target areas. The Company reserves the right to expend the funds on any other Exploration Property.
Finder's fees may be payable. The private placement and finder's fees are subject to regulatory approval.
On behalf of the Board of Directors
Lawrence Page, Q.C., President
Southern Silver Exploration Corp.
