UC Resources Discovers Significant Silver Vein Structure at XORA

05/12/2012 8:00pm

Marketwired Canada


UC Resources Ltd. ("UC" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:UC) is pleased to provide
this update to its shareholders, stakeholders and interested parties.


Recent sampling at multiple narrow vein mining locations have now been sampled
and site visited by management. The following observations and results were
inspected on a recent site visit.


Los Cuatas Vein

The Los Cuatas Vein was mined on three levels to a small extent and on surface
along strike to the north. 


The Los Cuatas Vein to the north appears to disappear under over burden that
outcrops periodically over a kilometre of strike length prior to disappearing
under overburden. The vein to the south morphs into an area of stockworks. (a
mineralized zone in the form of a network of veinlets diffused in the country
rock) The vein and stockwork area appears to be approximately 8 meters wide in
places and the following samples have been taken on strike from what remains of
the footwall.

69170-69174                        5              .64g              136g

------------------------------------------------------------------------



South and east of the Los Cuatas Vein is Los Cuatas II Vein where sampling
across a 7 meter area of the hanging wall has resulted in the following channel
sample results.

                            Distance

------------------------------------------------------------------------



To the east of the Los Cuatas Vein, within approximately 200 meters lies the
former El Mirador Mine. An adjacent mine referred to as the Mirador II Vein lies
approximately 25 meters east of the El Mirador main mine. Channel sampling was
conducted between the two mines and two areas of interest on surface were
observed.

------------------------------------------------------------------------



A channel sample taken 25 meters west of the El Mirador Mine returned .12g of
gold and 668g of silver over a one meter width. This showing can be followed on
surface and a drill pad has been constructed to drill in an effort to follow the
depth and strike of this spectacular assay. 


South of Los Cuatas Vein, at approximately 70 meters, resides the Leona II Vein.
The Leona Vein is an additional 125 meters south of Leona II. Both vein areas
show extensive fracturing and brecciated welded rock with quartz veining.
Channel samples taken from Leona II were taken along across the structure and
samples taken from Leona were taken from inside the mined area. One interesting
element about the Leona Vein, is that it strikes almost east west while all
other occurrences are almost exactly north south.

South of Leona Vein by 150 meters you will find Waterfall l Vein. This is least
explored of our new occurrences and have been sampled randomly to date with
samples taken over one meter widths. Highlights are as follows:

Further sampling will be required in this area. 

The analyses were completed by accredited ALS Chemex Laboratories of Vancouver. 

John Archibald, PGeo, a qualified person pursuant to NI 43-101, has reviewed and
approved the technical information in this press release on behalf of the
company.


The Company drill rig, after its arrival on site, has had required repairs
completed to facilitate efficient, economic and effective drilling. The Company
is also in the process of coming to a final agreement with a recently surfaced,
local land owner, for unrestricted land access on the UC Resources constructed
road to drilling locations. 


Some drilling has been completed and core samples are being sent for assays to
an accredited laboratory. Results will be released as they are received in
minimum two hole lots and the main drilling program plans will recommence in
January.


The Company has completed the planned upgrade on the La Yesca milling
operations, and now that the rainy season of August to October has concluded,
tonnage processed is increasing and production is again moving toward the end
goal of commercial production. A 25- year experienced milling consultant has
recently visited the site with management and will be assisting in the
streamlining of mining operations over the next few months. The company is
committed to consistency and most importantly the ability to sustain ongoing
production. Staff training, mill flow, strategic planning and all elements of
mill operation will be thoroughly examined in January in consultation with our
newly retained consultant. 


The Company defines Commercial production for the La Yesca production mill as
follows: 




--  all major capital expenditures to bring the mine to the condition
    necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by
    management have been completed; 
--  the completion of a reasonable period of testing of the plant and
    equipment; 
--  the ability to produce saleable product (e.g., the ability to produce
    precipitate / concentrate within specifications); 
--  the mill has reached a pre-determined percentage of design capacity; 
--  mineral recoveries are at or near the expected production level; 
--  the ability to sustain ongoing production 



Management is of the opinion that of the items listed that determines commercial
production, that the ability to sustain ongoing consistent production is the
final challenge.
