Americas Gold and Silver Announces High-Grade Infill Drill Results at the Cosala Complex Highlighting Substantial Upside Compared To Mineral Resource Grades, Including 599.8 g/t Ag, 0.8% Cu over 14.0m and 509.7 g/t Ag, 0.4% Cu over 10.0m

Americas Gold & Silver Converts Debt to Equity, Confirms Cosalá Grade Upside, but Technicals Signal Consolidation After Parabolic Run

Executive Summary
  • Americas Gold and Silver Corporation reported high-grade infill drill results from its Q4 2025 through Q1 2026 campaign at the Cosalá Complex in Mexico.
  • Fourteen drillholes across the San Rafael Upper, 120 Upper, and 120 Lower zones returned silver grades averaging 2-3x higher than the current modeled Mineral Resource, with highlights including 14.0m @ 599.8 g/t Ag and 10.0m @ 509.7 g/t Ag.
  • The intercepts are located adjacent to existing mine infrastructure and are being integrated into the optimized H2 2026 mine plan.
  • This announcement follows a series of recent corporate actions, including the termination of a $45M silver delivery obligation to Sprott and a $40M gold delivery settlement with IRC, both converted into equity.
  • The company also reported record Q1 2026 production of 787,000 oz of silver, turning profitable with a $10.0M net income and maintaining a strong cash position of $122.4M.
Material Impact
  • The drill results are positive but incremental. They validate the company's aggressive 64,000-meter exploration campaign and support the stated 2026 production guidance of 3.2-3.6 million ounces.
  • The grade upgrades (2-5x) reduce geological risk for the H2 2026 mine plan and should improve near-term cash flow, but they do not fundamentally alter the company's valuation thesis, which has already been heavily bid up following the GDXJ inclusion and debt restructuring.
  • The recent debt settlements are financially material, removing ~$85M in variable obligations. However, these were settled via equity issuance (~10.6M shares combined), introducing dilution that the market has already absorbed.
  • The transition to profitability in Q1 2026 is a strong operational milestone, but the stock's 300%+ run-up from mid-2025 to early 2026 suggests much of this execution has been priced in. The news is a confirmation of management's stated roadmap rather than a surprise catalyst.

Company Overview
  • Americas Gold and Silver operates two primary assets: the Galena Complex in Idaho, USA, and the Cosalá Complex in Sinaloa, Mexico.
  • Galena Complex: The sole producing antimony mine in the United States. Produces silver, copper, lead, and antimony. The company is aggressively upgrading infrastructure, including a new paste backfill plant and No. 3 shaft hoisting upgrades, to increase milling capacity from 750 to 1,200 stpd by end-2026.
  • Cosalá Complex: A high-grade silver operation that recently declared commercial production at the EC120 zone. The complex is undergoing resource conversion drilling to upgrade inferred resources to measured and indicated categories.
  • Crescent Mine: A newly acquired historical silver mine in Idaho, adjacent to Galena. The company is investing $30-40M in 2026 to restart operations, targeting mid-2026 production to feed the Galena mill.
