Sterling Begins Drifting on Silver Mineralization Exposed by Cross-Cutting at Sunshine Mine

Close to Sterling Mining SRLM.ob listing in Toronto we should expect more good news.
"WALLACE, IDAHO--(MARKET WIRE)--Sep 13, 2007 -- Sterling Mining Company (OTC BB:SRLM.OB - News)(Frankfurt:SMX.F - News) today reported that its mining crews have completed over 230 feet of drifting on a new portion of the Sunshine vein, that has been accessed from the new Sterling Tunnel and which was exposed during exploration cross-cutting in June and July.
Sampling by Sterling's geologists to date indicate a vein grade of 33.7 ounces per ton over an average of 0.9 feet true vein width for the entire length of the exploration drift.
Raymond De Motte, President stated "This initial result is very exciting, and adds to our projections that there is ore in the Upper Country area that has been either inaccessible to date, or not explored due to fragmented land ownership with prior operators. The Upper Country area, which is separate from the lower levels of the Mine and its silver reserves that are the focus of our return to production, is key to our continuing exploration efforts at Sterling".
