Southern Silver (OTC: SSVFF) has mobilized crews to begin an exploration and integration drill program on the newly acquired Puro Corazon claim contiguous to its Cerro Las Minitas project in Durango, Mexico (Oct 6, 2025). The program plans up to 12,000 metres of core drilling using three rigs, compilation of underground data, new sampling of historic workings and a Lidar survey.
Puro Corazon is a nine-hectare claim with an active private mine producing ~60 tonnes/day and development extending ~200 m laterally and 250 m depth. Drilling will test extensions to 450 m depth and lateral projections ~200 m, plus up to six hangingwall targets. Results will feed an updated NI 43-101 Technical Report and a PEA scheduled for Q1 2026. The company also granted 13.9M incentive stock options at $0.41 exercisable five years.
Southern Silver Exploration (TSXV: SSV) has secured an agreement to acquire the Puro Corazon mining claim, strategically located adjacent to its 100%-owned Cerro Las Minitas project in Durango, Mexico.

Key highlights from hole 24CLM-198 include:
- 8.9 metres averaging 97g/t Ag, 0.1g/t Au, 0.7% Cu, 0.1% Pb and 0.7% Zn (222g/t AgEq)
- 4.0 metres averaging 81g/t Ag, 0.2g/t Au, 0.1g/t Cu, 0.4% Pb and 3.9% Zn (267g/t AgEq)
Notable gold-enriched intercepts include 0.9 metres averaging 124g/t Ag, 5.2g/t Au and 4.0% Pb (682g/t AgEq). The drilling program also achieved a 175-metre lateral extension through hole 24CLM-199. The company continues advancing various project aspects, including baseline data collection, hydrology, geotechnical, archaeological and land surveys.
Southern Silver Exploration Corp. (TSXV: SSV) has entered into a letter agreement to acquire the Nazas exploration project in Durango, Mexico. The company can earn a 100% interest by making cash payments of US$130,000 over 36 months and completing 8,000 metres of drilling over 4 years.
The Nazas Ag-Au-Pb-Zn property comprises 5 claims totaling 2,189 ha and is located within Mexico's Faja de Plata, just 15km east of Endeavor Silver's Pitarilla Deposit. The property features similar host stratigraphy and mineralizing systems to Pitarilla, with potential for epithermal vein, porphyry and replacement-styled mineral deposits.
Previous exploration includes geological mapping, rock and soil sampling, geophysical surveys, and 18 drill holes totaling 4,070 metres. Seven different targets have been identified, with drilling at Yerbabuena and Santa Rita targets showing strongly anomalous Au-Ag mineralization. The company plans to begin drill testing in Q3 2025.
