Arian Silver Confirms Strong Continuity within the San José Vein System

9 June 2015

Arian Silver Corporation (“Arian Silver” or the “Company”), (AIM: AGQ, TSXV: AGQ), a silver mining company focussed on projects in the silver belt of Zacatecas, Mexico, is pleased to report the results of its Phase-5 drilling programme within the township of Guanajuatillo located along the San José vein system (“SJV”) within the San José project, Mexico.

Highlights (all widths are true widths):

  • High-grade silver intersected in latest round of drilling;
  • Mineralisation intersected in all 19 holes;
  • Hole GW-15-59 containing multiple intersections including 5.09m with 249 g/t Ag and 6.43m with 357 g/t Ag;
  • Hole GW-15-58 also contained multiple intersections including 1.22m with 431 g/t Ag and 6.11m with 157 g/t Ag;
  • Hole GW-15-64 intersected 5.68m with 249 g/t Ag;
  • Hole GW-15-65 intersected 8.1m with 225 g/t Ag;
  • Mineralisation remains open along both the western and eastern strike extensions and to depth; and
  • Independent Mineral Resource Estimate update planned over the coming months.

Arian Silver’s Chief Executive Officer, Jim Williams, commented today: “The Phase-5 drilling programme demonstrates the significant potential for further silver and base metal resources within the San José vein system. Our exploration methodology and execution has been very effective and we returned some excellent intersections with increased true widths in several drill holes.

The results confirm that the silver, lead and zinc mineralisation extends beneath the township of Guanajuatillo over a length of a kilometre. The Guanajuatillo area connects to the Soledad resource blocks to the east as well as to the resource blocks to the west of Guanajuatillo.

These drilling results will enable us to update our NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate over the coming summer months and we look forward to updating shareholders in due course.

In addition, we have recently commenced an underground drilling program using our own compact drilling rig which has been set up to drill the down dip extensions of the SJV and to further aid mine development work.”

The drilling programme, which comprised 19 holes for a total of 4,876.75 metres, was completed during April 2015 and followed by sample preparation, analysis, and data compilation.
