VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - April 4, 2011) - Prospero Silver Corp. (News - Market indicators) ("Prospero" or the "Company") announces that it has engaged contractor, Geotech Ltd., to conduct a ZTEM and magnetic helicopter airborne geophysical survey. This will cover both the Campana and San Luis del Cordero projects in central Durango State. The survey consists of a total of 1048 line-km covering 192 km2 which includes the ~ 9 Km alluvium covered valley in between both projects.
The ZTEM (z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic System) and magnetic surveys provide relatively deep imaging technology, which can map structure, bedrock geology and alteration from surface up to 1500 meters exploration depth. The objective of the survey is to provide new targets under alluvium or volcanic post-mineral cover, which can be followed up with ground IP and or/soil geochemistry.
The Company has drilling information from both Cordero and Campana projects which will provide "ground truthing" for the area wide geophysics program. The planned program combines airborne and ground geophysics (Induced Polarisation Survey), and soil geochemistry, and is expected to provide better target definition to carry out a more effective drilling campaign to search for additional diatreme-hosted or skarn-hosted mineralized zones.
Tawn Albinson, M.Sc., the President of the Company, is a Qualified Person, as defined in NI 43-101, and is responsible for the technical content of this press release.
