Kootenay Hits 18 Meters of 254 gpt Silver Eqv Within 89 Meters of 84 gpt Silver Eqv

VANCOUVER, April 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - Kootenay Silver Inc. (TSX VENTURE: KTN.V) is pleased to announce results from an additional 10 holes from its current 25,000 meter drill program on its Promontorio Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico. The Company reports the two-phase 35,000 meter in-fill drill and resource definition program, comprised of 25,000 meters of core drilling and 10,000 meters of RC drilling is now complete. Work on an independent NI 43-101 resource update to incorporate results from drilling is underway.

States Kootenay CEO James McDonald "The high-grade results achieved from step-out drilling in the Northeast Zone is further testimony to the success of our multi-phase drill program. Since confirming our initial NI 43-101 silver resource in 2010, we established one continuous zone of silver mineralization from the Pit (Discovery) Zone through the Southwest Zone. This zone remains open to the east, west and to depth. We continue to encounter high-grade silver intercepts over widespread areas of silver mineralization in the Northeast Zone, some 700 meters outside of the current NI 43-101 resource. We expect these developments will play a critical factor in sharply boosting the size of our existing silver resource as we prepare for our updated independent NI 43-101 resource study."

Silver Hosted in Large Diatreme Complex
The recent definitive recognition that Promontorio silver mineralization is hosted in a large diatreme complex has significant geologic implication, as these types of systems can typically be very large in size and result in discovery of numerous deposits. Examples in Mexico include the Pitarrilla Silver-Lead-Zinc deposits in Durango and the Peñasquito Silver-Gold-Lead-Zinc mine located in the northeast of the State of Zacatecas in north-central Mexico.

Mineralization Remains Open on Strike and Down Dip
At present, silver mineralization remains open in both strike directions and down dip within Promontorio's Diatreme complex, between the Pit, Southwest Extension and Northeast Zones. The Company reports it has identified a host of new prospective targets within the Diatreme complex, that require further drill testing. Accordingly, the Company reports plans are underway to conduct a large follow up drill program after the release of the NI 43-101 resource update.
