CHIHUAHUA, Mexico, July 17 /EMWNews/ -- Mexoro Minerals Ltd. Intersects High Grade Mineralization At Its Cieneguita Project (OTC Bulletin Board: MXOM) (Frankfurt: OYA1). Mexoro Minerals Ltd. is pleased to announce assay results from six additional drill holes at its Cieneguita Project. The assays included drill holes CI-25, CI-27 to CI-29 and CI-31 to CI-32 which intersected high grade mineralization. These assays are the second set of assay results under the new strategic alliance with Paramount Gold and Silver Corp. (AMEX: PZG; TSX). The Cieneguita project is a former producing mine in Chihuahua Mexico. It is believed to be in the same mineralized trend and only 20 km away from Goldcorp's El Sauzal mine, Mexico's largest producing gold mine and adjacent to Paramount's Andrea project. Cieneguita was last in production by Glamis Gold Ltd. between 1995 and 1998 prior to its acquisition by Goldcorp Inc. The current drill program continues to intersect high grade mineralization both along strike and at depth. Drilling continues at this project to help better understand this mineralized system and to test its depth potential. Assays have now been received from 30 of 39 drill holes at the Cieneguita project. Drill hole CI-25 intersected 46.50 m of 1.10 g/t Au, 332.60 g/t Ag, 0.35% Pb & 0.66% Zn, including: 10.95 meters of 2.13 g/t Au, 976 g/t Ag, 0.38% Pb & 0.96% Zn; and 13.45 meters of 1.30 g/t Au, 149.53 g/t Ag, 0.57% Pb & 0.68% Zn. Within CI-25 there were two very narrow high grade veins which intersected 0.15 m of 8.23 g/t Au, 5500 g/t Ag and 0.1 m of 8.84 g/t Au, 3130 g/t Ag Drill hole CI-27 intersected 85.50 m of 0.70 g/t Au & 54.46 g/t Ag including: 7.50 meters of 1.54 g/t Au, 148.66 g/t Ag, 0.15% Pb & 0.32% Zn and 9.00 meters of 1.07 g/t Au, 82.47 g/t Ag, 0.18 % Pb & 0.22% Zn Drill hole CI-29 intersected 30 m of 0.66 g/t Au, 58.75 g/t Ag, 0.45% Pb & 0.58% Zn including: 10.50 meters of 1.01 g/t Au, 92.71 g/t Ag, 0.37% Pb & 0.33% Zn,; 15 m of 1.77 g/t Au & 66.65 g/t Ag including 6 m of 3.55 g/t Au and 116.75 g/t Ag; 64.60 m of 0.56% Pb & 0.80% Zn; and 12.80 m of 0.28% Pb & 0.70% Zn.
