AbraSilver Reports 2026 La Coipita Project Drill Results; Best Hole Returns 748 Metres of 0.69% Copper, 0.06 g/t Gold and 142 ppm Molybdenum

AbraSilver reports incremental exploration milestones at its La Coipita joint venture, which do not alter the near-term investment thesis centered on the Diablillos definitive feasibility study.

Executive Summary
  • AbraSilver reported 2026 drill results from its La Coipita copper-gold-molybdenum project in Argentina.
  • Hole DDH-LC26-010 returned the strongest intercept to date: 747.5m @ 0.69% Cu, 0.06 g/t Au, 142 ppm Mo, confirming a vertically extensive system.
  • Hole DDH-LC26-012 identified a new, shallower discovery at the Yaretas Sur target, ~1.9 km south of the main drilling area.
  • The first-ever magnetotelluric (MT) survey indicates potential mineralized extensions to the south.
  • The program is fully funded and operated by a Teck Resources subsidiary under an earn-in JV agreement. Teck has completed 11,270m across 19 holes, representing ~US$23M in expenditures against a US$20M commitment.
  • Upon completion, an 80/20 JV (Teck/AbraSilver) will be formed.
Material Impact
  • The release is a routine exploration update from a JV partner. It confirms geological continuity and district-scale potential but does not change the Diablillos development timeline, DFS catalysts, or immediate financing needs.
  • The stock has already rallied significantly from ~$4.55 to ~$19.02 over the past year, pricing in substantial project advancement.
  • No new financing, M&A, DFS results, or permitting milestones are attached to this release. It is expected incremental progress that aligns with previous JV announcements.
  • Impact on the stock price is likely neutral to marginally positive. The market is currently focused on the Diablillos DFS and permitting pipeline rather than incremental JV exploration updates.
