Vancouver, British Columbia – Radius Gold Inc. (TSXV: RDU) (“Radius” or the “Company”) reports final drill results for the Plata Verde silver project in Chihuahua, Mexico. Drilling was funded by Minera San Julian, S.A. de C.V. (“Minera San Julian”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Fresnillo plc (“Fresnillo”).
The Plata Verde drill program comprised 13 holes for a total of 2400m of diamond core drilling. The drill holes cut several zones of low-grade silver mineralization, but unfortunately did not intersect zones of significant silver mineralization. Due to the limited economic potential, Minera San Julian has withdrawn from the partnership and Radius is in the process of returning the property to the underlying owners.
