Scorpio Mining Corporation found further underground drill results from the 9th level North West Main Zone of their Nuestra Senora project in Sinaloa State, Mexico.  Scorpio intersected 25.69% lead over 0.6 metres within 18 metres grading 2.20% lead.

Peter J. Hawley, Chairman, CEO reports, “As our geological team increases its understanding of the controls of the various ore bodies and their relationship to feeder zones, our success ratio of defining high-grade shoots has increased. The detailed drilling into the NW Zone has now allowed enough data for immediate mine planning and supporting development to prepare for extraction later this fall. This high-grade material will be blended into the existing surface stockpile to increase the grade of mill throughput, allowing for greater tonnages of concentrates to be produced. The Company is clearly excited with the long-term potential of this area and work also continues on the definition of the Jewel Box area in the down plunge sector from this
zone.”
