Arizona Silver released the assay results from the Philadelphia gold project. Click here to see how much gold and silver it found.

Arizona Silver Exploration Inc. (AZS:TSX; AZASF:OTC) has released the assay results from drilling on the Rising Fawn Zone and the Perry GAP zone. The drill results reveal significant gold and silver mineralization within both segments, which is particularly encouraging as gold rises in the face of the foundering dollar.

Arizona Silver is a junior mining exploration company based in Canada, and its flagship project is the Philadelphia epithermal gold-silver project in Arizona.

According to Greg Hahn, the Vice President and Head of Exploration for Arizona Silver, "Our drilling on these previously undrilled areas has delivered precisely what we were targeting — continuity of good grade mineralization. On the Rising Fawn zone beneath and along strike of mine workings, we have demonstrated continuity of robust gold mineralization . . . In the Perry zone, our successful drilling of the GAP has been particularly encouraging. We confirmed the continuity of mineralization in that previously undrilled area. Importantly, the system remains open along strike in both directions and downdip."

Why Gold?

Gold has performed well as the dollar continues to take hits. Stockhead reports that gold futures last week "lifted as high as US$2037oz with spot gold lifting almost 1% to US$2031oz in the U.S. market."

The analyst Clive Maund rated Arizona Silver as an excellent Buy.

Ed Moya, the senior market analyst for OANDA, commented that, depending on the actions of the Fed, gold could be looking at another rise: "The journey to record highs has been a long one for gold, but if the Fed is truly done lifting rates, further tightening of credit conditions could be the key catalyst."

According to Rick Mills with Ahead of the Herd, there are a number of factors that are acting in concert to support gold, including recession fears, a banking crisis, the actions of the U.S. Federal Reserve, a robust gold demand, and supply stagnation.

Catalyst

The analyst Clive Maund rated Arizona Silver as an excellent Buy: "We bought Arizona Silver late last month at what was thought to be a good entry point which is shown on the latest 6-month chart below. But now, thanks to it reacting back a little more than expected, it is at an even better entry point, especially as its technical setup is even more positive."

Arizona Silver has pending drill results that should be ready to release anytime. The company has a tight share structure with large investments in management and with advisors. Management has a big stake and does not have a history of selling shares. The company reports 100% of drill hole hits on all patented ground drilling and minable grades.
