Oro Silver Resources Ltd. (“Oro Silver”) (TSX-V: OSR) is pleased to announce that it has acquired a 51% interest in the Ana Camila claim group (5 concessions) located adjacent to the El Compas mine in Zacatecas. The 320 hectare property covers the northern extensions of the gold/silevr bearing El Compas vein system.
