Cerro Resources-7 holes @ 200g/t+ Silver from Namiquipa, Mexico, Initial Resource Evaluation Work to Commence
20 Junho 2012 - 9:30AM
Marketwired Canada
Cerro Resources NL (ASX:CJO)(TSX VENTURE:CJO) is pleased to advise it has
received excellent final drill results from the Stage 1 diamond core drill
campaign at the Namiquipa Silver Project (CJO - 100%), in Chihuahua, Mexico.
HIGHLIGHTS
-- Drilling has identified a broad zone of confluence between the principal
Princesa and America vein systems;
-- 11 out of the 16 holes yielded silver intercepts greater than 100 g/t
Ag;
-- 7 holes yielded silver intercepts greater than 200 g/t Ag, including:
-- 3.66m@ 738g/t AgEq (NAM-085) from 122.34m (654g/t Ag, 0.62% Pb and
2.43% Zn),
-- 8.8m@ 268g/t AgEq (NAM-084) from 145.12m (255g/t Ag, 0.19% Pb and
0.32% Zn), including 0.25m@ 2,397 g/t AgEq from 145.12m (2,340g/t
Ag, 1%Pb and 1% Zn), and
-- 4m@ 383g/t AgEq (NAM-078) from 148m (363g/t Ag, 0.6%Pb and 0.2% Zn).
Stage 1 drilling, comprising 86 holes, has delineated a major silver-driven
system of largely contiguous mineralized veins (Ag-Pb-Zn) encompassing 1km
lateral strike, and extending from 150m below surface to 500 meters down-dip.
The drill results from this extensive system will now be incorporated into a
detailed geological-geophysical-geochemical model for purposes of completing an
initial resource estimation during the second half 2012.
Surface exploration, consisting of soil geochemistry and a planned Induced
Polarization geophysics, is also underway to better define the northern
extension of the Namiquipa mineralization. This will be subject of drill testing
at a later stage - post the initial resource assessment.

The Silver equivalent grades ("AgEq") have been calculated using metal
prices of US$25oz Silver; US$1.00/lb Zinc; and US$1.00/lb Lead. Metal
recoveries are not considered in this calculation. Further drilling is
required to provide a more accurate assessment of vein thickness and true
width may vary.
