Honey Badger Silver (TUF) is releasing results from the Phase 1 summer work program at its Plata Silver Property.

The Toronto-based silver exploration company owns a 100-per-cent interest in the 5,690-hectare property located in east-central Yukon.

Assays from five composite grab samples of hand sorted material collected from 90 ore bags left behind by historic miners contain values ranging from 2,930 to 5,190 grams per tonne of silver.

The Plata Silver Property lies within the Tintina Gold Belt and displays numerous similarities to the Keno Hill Mining Camp, Canada’s second largest primary producer of silver, located 165 kilometres to the west.

Preliminary results confirm the potential for very high-grade silver mineralization at Plata. Gold assays for these five composite samples are pending as are assay results from rock and channel samples collected during the Phase 1 Summer Work Program.

Rock samples were routinely analyzed for gold by fire assay followed by atomic absorption.

Honey Badger Silver is up 15.38 per cent, trading at $0.075 at 10:50 am EST.
