New Pacific Metals Corp., together with its local Bolivian partner, reports assay results for an additional 42 drill holes from the 2022 drill program at its Carangas Silver-Gold Project, Oruro Department, Bolivia. To date, assay results of 85 drill holes from the 115 holes drilled in 2022 have been received and released while results of the remaining 30 drill holes are pending. These 42 holes were drilled to define the continuity of the shallow silver mineralization on a grid with fifty-meter spacing. With the exception of one hole, all 41 drill holes intercepted broad silver mineralization, which further confirmed the continuity of the widespread shallow silver-lead-zinc polymetallic mineralization starting near surface in an area of up to 1,000 meters long by 800 m wide by 200m deep across the West Dome, the Central Valley and the East Dome. These drill hole results will be incorporated in the Project’s inaugural mineral resource estimate expected to be released later in the year.
