Today\u2019s release includes the results of four new drillholes at 100 meter spacing over a strike length of 300 meters and approximately 150 meters beneath the surface:<br \/>\nSRC-901: 22m of 8.5 g\/t gold and 58 g\/t silver from 181m<br \/>\nSRC-902: 16m of 10.3 g\/t gold and 86 g\/t silver from 195m<br \/>\nSRC-903: 7m of 8.1 g\/t gold and 77 g\/t silver from 189m<br \/>\nSRC-904 1m of 6.8 g\/t gold and 62 g\/t silver from 189m<br \/>\nA fifth hole, SRC-905, was drilled 100m west of SRC-904 and did not intersect the vein.<br \/>\nThe widths reported above are intersected widths, which are generally, but not always less than the true widths. Andean has assumed an underground cut-off grade of 2.5 g\/t gold at San Marcos for all the interval summaries reported in this release.<br \/>\nThe first ore-shoot at San Marcos has been intersected over a strike length of 300 meters and is open to the east and to depth. The widest intersection is SRC-901 with an intersected width of 22m and is the eastern-most hole. The vein narrows to the west with sequential holes SRC-902, SRC-903, and SRC-904, all of which obtained successively narrower intersections. Further drilling is in progress with results pending to test the extension east of SRC-901.<\/p>\n<p>Wayne Hubert, Andean\u2019s President and CEO commented, \u201cThis new discovery is another testament to the highly prospective exploration potential at Cerro Negro. San Marcos is a new gold and silver  discovery on the northern part of the property position. <b>This new discovery now opens up the potential for additional discoveries along strike in a north-west direction between the Bajo Negro and San Marcos veins, as well as for parallel veins at the Mariana targets between Eureka and San Marcos. <\/b> The exploration team continues to focus on adding value through the drill bit at the Cerro Negro site.\u201d<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.australian-gold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/and-andmore-1.gif\" alt=\"and-andmore\" title=\"and-andmore\" width=\"921\" height=\"562\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-251\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AND is going to be a larger mid-cap producer is the near future.
