Northair Completes Drill Program at Sierra Rosario Silver / Gold Project, Mexico
International Northair Mines Ltd. (TSXV: INM) (the "Company" or "Northair") is pleased to announce that it has completed an initial core drill program at its Sierra Rosario silver gold project (the "Property"), located in the state of Sinaloa, Mexico.
The drill program, conducted by the Company and its 50% partner American Consolidated Minerals Corp., consisted of six core holes, totaling 1,392.15 metres and was designed to test a 600 meter long portion of a significant induced polarization geophysical and silver / gold geochemical soil anomaly. Results from the drill program are pending and will be reported when assays have been received and compiled by the Company.
In addition, a follow up geochemical program has also been completed at the Property. This program was designed to extend the initial soil sampling grid to the southeast to better define the limits of the open ended silver / gold soil anomaly noted above, which measures 1,400 metres in length and up to 1,300 metres wide at its southeastern end. The additional work extended 3 existing lines towards the northeast and expanded the grid 600 meters to the southeast. Results from this program are pending and will be reported when received.
