Potential New Gold Zone At Cerro Jumil

VANCOUVER, BC - Esperanza Silver Corporation reported on its 100%-owned Cerro Jumil gold project in Mexico where drilling continues to expand the potential resource. Highlights include: ¥ Extended the Southeast Zone 100 meters down dip to the east and have confirmed continuity within the zone. ¥ Discovered the potential new Cerro Calabaza West gold zone approximately 300 meters to the northwest of the central Southeast Zone. ¥ Drill Hole RCHE-07-76 yielded 79.5 meters containing 1.04 g/t gold. ¥ Drill Hole RCHE-07-80 yielded two mineralized zones. One of 36 meters containing 2.53 g/t and another of 54 meters containing 0.73 g/t gold. ¥ Drill Hole RCHE-07-64A yielded 51 meters containing 1.44 g/t gold. ¥ Drill Hole RCHE-07-67 yielded 163.5 meters containing 0.87 g/t gold.
Ongoing Drilling Confirms Continuity and Expands Southeast Zone.
The assay results from 20 new drill holes have confirmed gold continuity within the central portion of the Southeast Zone. The new drilling also demonstrates that gold mineralization continues down dip to the east.
Drill holes RCHE-07-66 and 67 intercepted broad zones of gold mineralization (78.0 meters averaging 0.84 g/t gold and 163.5 meters averaging 0.87 g/t gold respectively). This extends the gold mineralization within the central portion of the Southeast Zone an additional 100 meters to the east.
