Silvermex Intersects High Grade Gold at La Guitarra-306.99 g/t Au and 1,033.60 g/t Ag or 18,225 g/t Silver Equivalent Over 1.45 m

27.03.2012  |  Marketwired
VANCOUVER, March 27, 2012 - Silvermex Resources Inc. ("Silvermex") (TSX:SLX) announces further underground drill results from five drill holes at its producing La Guitarra property, located in the Temascaltepec Mining District, in the State of Mexico.

These latest drill results demonstrate the presence of a significant new ore extension on the main La Guitarra Vein and have returned assays with bonanza grades of gold and silver while the Doncellas Vein in the hanging wall of the La Guitarra vein continues to return significant mineralization. Drilling has demonstrated the potential extension of the ore shoot 150 meters in depth and 100 meters in strike with the ore shoot still open to the NW and at depth.

The diamond drill holes all intersected high grade gold and silver with the most prominent being drill hole LGS-57, where it intersected 147.473 g/t Au and 607.703 g/t Ag over 3.2 m. This includes a 1.45 m interval of 306.99 g/t Au and 1,033.60 g/t Ag. This translates to a silver equivalent grade of 18,225.040 g/t.

Other notable intersections include drill hole LGS-56, where it intersected 5.35 m of 18.059 g/t Au and 67.694 g/t Ag. This includes a 1.25 m interval of 55.422 g/t Au and 158.036 g/t Ag. This translates to a silver equivalent grade of 3,261.683 g/t.

These intercepts are located between elevations of 1,700 m and 1,600 m. This drilling has demonstrated the potential extension of the ore shoot 150 m in depth and 100 m in strike with the ore shoot still open to the NW and at depth. This indicates that significant mineralization extends below the deepest recorded mining on the La Guitarra Vein.

Duane Nelson, CEO of Silvermex, reports: "We are very pleased with the bonanza type intercepts we are seeing in this new section of the mine. Never before have we seen gold grades over 300 g/t over such wide strike lengths and depths like this. We have already started to modify our mine plan to focus on developing this area. We are confident we can access the upper portion of the high grade ore body by the third quarter of this year."

Sampling of the drill core was overseen by one of the La Guitarra geologists who marked off the drill core at appropriate intervals based upon the geology and mineralization present. Sample intervals normally vary from 0.2 -- 1.0 m in length. No sample exceeded 1.5 m in overall length. All core samples were sent to Inspectorate Labs sample preparation in Durango, Durango, Mexico. Assays for gold were done by 1 Assay Tonne Fire Assay AA Finish and 4 Acid ICP-AES for silver and other elements. Gold assays that exceed 5 g/t by AA are redone using a gravimetric finish. Silver assays in excess of 100 g/t are redone using Fire Assay Gravimetric. Four acid ICP analyses were conducted at the main laboratory of Inspectorate in Reno, Nevada, USA. Certified standards, blanks, and duplicate samples were inserted in every batch of 20 samples sent to the laboratory.

Pursuant to National Instrument 43-101, Douglas Blanchflower, P. Geo., Geological Consultant to Silvermex, is the Qualified Person ('QP') responsible for the disclosure in this news release.
