Orosur Mining Inc Announces Anza Restarts With Strong Set of Drilling Results
High-Grade Colombian Assays Clear Path to Feasibility as Orosur Aggressively Expands Footprint
The news release dated January 8, 2026, marks the completion of the infill drilling program at the Pepas prospect within the Anzá Project in Colombia. Key results from the final three diamond drill holes show significant high-grade gold mineralization starting from surface: - Hole PEP074: 71.35m at 6.46 g/t Au - Hole PEP073: 104.45m at 5.96 g/t Au - Hole PEP072B: 47.6m at 3.43 g/t Au
The company has delivered the full drill database to external consultants to commence Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) modeling. Additionally, Orosur announced a 65% increase in its exploration license area at Anzá through the grant of previously pending applications. Management has officially initiated a feasibility assessment and restarted drilling after the holiday break, targeting the APTA and El Cedro prospects for 2026.
This news is materially positive as it transitions the company from a pure explorer to a potential developer. - Resource De-risking: The consistently high grades (averaging 3-6 g/t over wide intervals) from surface suggest a robust core for the upcoming MRE. Moving to modeling indicates that the company believes it has sufficient data density for a NI 43-101 compliant resource. - Strategic Continuity: The initiation of a feasibility assessment suggests a rapid development timeline, which is supported by the 100% ownership status regained from Newmont and Agnico Eagle in late 2024. - Expansion Potential: The 65% increase in landholding (to approx. 400km²) provides a massive runway for regional discovery, particularly at El Cedro, which has previously shown porphyry potential. - Operational Momentum: Starting the year with two rigs turning in two countries (Colombia and Argentina) minimizes the "single-asset" risk, though Anzá remains the primary driver.
Orosur Mining is a South American-focused gold developer. Its flagship is the Anzá Project in Colombia, located 50km west of Medellin. - Flagship Details: Anzá consists of several prospects: Pepas (current focus), APTA (historical focus with 38k meters drilled), and El Cedro (porphyry target). - Ownership: 100% owned. Orosur bought out its JV partners (Newmont and Agnico Eagle) in late 2024 in exchange for contingent royalties. - Other Assets: 51% interest in the El Pantano Project (Argentina) and early-stage lithium interests in Nigeria.
