[Video Enhanced] Sendero's 3D Magnetic Model Identifies Multiple Porphyry and Epithermal Targets with Deep Roots at Penas Negras
Sendero’s 3D magnetic model refines targets at the Penas Negras project, though no drill results have been released yet.
Sendero Resources Corp. (SEND) released an exploration update on October 8, 2026, detailing the interpretation of a 3D airborne magnetic survey at its Peñas Negras project in Argentina. The model extends to approximately 3 km depth, identifying porphyry and epithermal targets, including La Ollita, Cerro Verde Sur, and Cerro Verde Norte.
Key geological features identified include fertile intrusions, deep-rooted structures, a preserved lithocap, and stacked hydrothermal events. Historical drilling at La Ollita is shallow, and the deeper root zone remains untested. Holes at Cerro Verde Sur intersected anomalous gold but missed the magnetic body below, while Cerro Verde Norte intersected lithocap and intrusive granite.
The update follows a September 23, 2026, recalculation of historical CuEq data and an August 17, 2026, initial drill program that confirmed the geological model.
Sendero Resources Corp. (SEND) released an incremental exploration update that validates its geological model and outlines a roadmap for future drilling. The announcement does not constitute a discovery or financing event, nor does it include new financial data, production guidance, or strategic partnerships. As a routine update for an exploration-stage company advancing a 3D geophysical model, the news does not materially alter the project's valuation or near-term cash flow.
The market has already priced in the exploration phase, with the stock declining from approximately $2.00 in January to around $0.74 in October. This movement reflects typical volatility for junior explorers and the absence of near-term catalysts.
Sendero Resources Corp. (SEND) is an exploration-stage company focused on the 100%-owned Peñas Negras copper-gold project in the Vicuña Belt, Argentina. The project covers 120 km² with an option to earn an additional 91.7 km². It is located near major district operations: 22 km to Lundin Mining's Caserones, 22 km to Josemaria, and 21 km to Filo del Sol. The geological model suggests a district-scale magmatic-hydrothermal system with porphyry and high-sulfidation epithermal potential. No resource estimates or economic studies have been completed. The company is in the data compilation and target prioritization phase.
