Executive Summary

  • Argenta Silver released fourth‑group assay results from its 2025 Winter Diamond Drilling Program at the El Quevar Project, highlighting high‑grade silver intercepts such as 263 g/t Ag over 35 m (including 425 g/t Ag over 6 m) and a standout 694 g/t Ag over 2.1 m.
  • New mineralized trends were identified at the Mani and Atenea targets, supporting follow‑up drilling in the upcoming 2025–2026 Summer Drill Program.
  • The company confirmed it is fully funded with approximately C$23 million to execute a 12,000‑15,000 m summer program (Nov 1 2025 – Jun 2026), allocating 40% to resource expansion and 60% to new discoveries.

Key Details

  • Drill Hole QVD‑411B (Yaxtché Deposit) – 263 g/t Ag over 35 m; includes:
  • 425 g/t Ag over 6 m
  • 342 g/t Ag over 9 m (contains 694 g/t Ag over 2.1 m)

  • Gold: 0.35 g/t Au over 1 m and 0.84 g/t Au over 1 m

  • Drill Hole QVD‑420 (Mani Target) – 204 g/t Ag over 2 m within a 36 g/t Ag over 14 m interval; confirms mineralization ~800 m south of Yaxtché.

  • Exploration Holes
