Argenta Silver Intersects 1,385 g/t Ag over 4.0m at Mani-Copan Target and Discovers New High-Grade Silver Zone at El Quevar

Argenta Silver Corp.

Executive Summary
  • Latest Drilling Campaign: Argenta Silver reported high-grade silver intercepts from its ongoing 2025–2026 diamond drilling campaign at the El Quevar Project.
  • Mani-Copan Target: Hole QVD-444 intersected 1,385 g/t Ag over 4.0m (from 271.0m to 275.0m).
  • New Discovery: A new mineralized zone was discovered at the Argentina target with intercepts up to 725 g/t Ag over 3.0m.
  • Program Progress: Over 14,500 meters completed across 61 holes (more than half of the total 25,000-meter program). Two rigs are operational.
  • Existing Resource: Yaxtché Deposit holds 45.3 million ounces Indicated silver @ 482 g/t Ag and 4.1 million ounces Inferred @ 417 g/t Ag.
  • Management Commentary: CEO Joaquin Marias stated results reinforce district-scale potential and confirm mineralization beyond the current resource envelope, noting Mani-Copan shares a geochemical signature with Yaxtché but has higher-grade surface samples.
Material Impact
  • Confirmation of Trend: The 1,385 g/t Ag intercept at Mani-Copan is consistent with previous high-grade results announced in February 2026 (4,982 g/t Ag over 7.5m), confirming the continuity of the mineralized system rather than introducing a fundamentally new valuation driver.
  • Program Execution: The news confirms the company is executing its fully funded 25,000-meter program as planned in January/February 2026, validating management's capital allocation strategy.
  • Market Context: Despite positive drilling results, the stock price has declined significantly from $0.93 (January 2026) to $0.53 (April 2026). This suggests the market is currently pricing in dilution risks or broader sector headwinds rather than exploration upside alone.
  • Routine Nature: As this is part of an announced summer drill program where high grades were already anticipated following February results, the news is incremental validation rather than a surprise event that fundamentally alters the risk/reward profile immediately.
  • Positive Sentiment: The discovery of a new zone at the Argentina target adds to the district-scale narrative, which supports long-term value but does not constitute an immediate resource update or financing event.
