At this time, only the northern portion of Golondrinas is slated for drilling. Within this 600-meter by 200-meter area is a cluster of 13 northwest striking veins of variable thickness and because of this vein density, most of the drill holes should intersect multiple veins. Six of these veins returned samples better than 1,000 g/t silver, with the best results coming from the Golondrinas Vein underground workings (4,800 g/t silver over 1.25 meters). Mineral association studies conducted by IMPACT's exploration staff suggest the veins in this area are characteristic of the upper portions of the epithermal vein systems in the district, meaning that the initial drill holes will be targeting the higher grade tops of the silver-bearing zone. This initial program will consist of sets of three drill holes (spaced at 50-meter intervals) in each of the following target areas:
SUMMARY OF GOLONDRINAS DRILL TARGETS
| TARGET AREA | OLD MINE WORKINGS | SIGNIFICANT SILVER VALUES AND VEINS |
|---|---|---|
| GOLONDRINAS CROSSCUT | Golondrinas Adit, Golondrinas Cross Cut, Working Lamberto-10, Working JA-005 | Two parallel veins (BTH-366, hosted by the Golondrinas South Wing and Golondrinas, hosted by the Main Adit) located 25 meters apart. which contain 10 assays ranging from 215 to 2,510 g/t silver |
| GOLONDRINAS MAIN | Golondrinas Adit | Values up to 4,800 g/t silver over 1.25 meters for the Golondrinas Vein within the Golondrinas Adit |
| DON CARMELO | Don Carmelo Main Adit, Don Carmelo Arriba Adit, Working TRJ-001, El Quacle | The Lower Don Carmelo Adit is a buried working with a nearby old mine office and mining equipment; it is reported to be least 150 meters long and trends on the northerly continuation of the Golondrinas Vein, 372 g/t silver over 0.81 meters at the entrance |
| WORKING BTH-366 | El Sapo, Guajocote, Zapote, El Sauce, Pretil, El Guayabo | Values up to 1,220 g/t silver over 0.31 meters hosted by the BTH-366 Vein, with values of 244g/t Silver over 0.91 meters in the adjacent Guajocote Vein, 25 meters to the northeast |
| LA OBRA WORKING | La Obra, Huamuchil, BTH-407 Working | Within the La Obra Adit there are 35 rock samples that contain greater than 100 g/t silver, with the highest having 1,135 g/t Silver over 0.31 meters (La Obra Vein) |
| LA OBRA AV-005 WORKING | El Borrego, AV-006 | La Obra Vein, assays of 584 g/t silver over 0.13 m |
| EL COLORIN II | El Color
