Executive Summary

  • Step‑out hole QVD‑414 returned a spectacular 545 g/t Ag over 43.20 m (including 1,302 g/t Ag over 8.00 m), extending the Yaxtché mineralized zone 70 m to the northwest.
  • New exploration target “Atenea” confirmed by hole QVD‑416 with 314 g/t Ag over 2.00 m, indicating potential for additional high‑grade silver zones.
  • Completion of the fully funded 2025 winter drill program (4,244 m in 16 holes) and preparation underway for a larger 2025‑2026 summer campaign (12,000–15,000 m).

Key Details

  • QVD‑414 (step‑out):
  • 330.50‑373.70 m – 43.20 m interval – 545 g/t Ag, 0.01 g/t Au, 1.63 % Pb, 1.39 % Zn, 0.05 % Cu.

  • Sub‑intervals include:

    • 330.50‑338.00 m (7.5 m) – 443 g/t Ag.
    • 342.00‑346.00 m (4.0 m) – 312 g/t Ag.
    • 356.00‑364.00 m (8.0 m) – 1,302 g/t Ag.
    • 366.00‑373.70 m (7.7 m) – 905 g/t Ag.

  • QVD‑415 (up‑dip test): 15.5 m total intersect with low‑grade silver (2–3 g/t Ag), confirming the upper boundary of the deposit.

  • QVD‑416 (Atenea target):

  • 38.00‑40.00 m – 2.0 m interval – 314 g/t Ag, 0.01 g/t Au, trace Pb/Zn/Cu.

  • QVD‑417 (exploratory): Multiple shallow intervals (1 m each) returning low‑grade silver (1–2 g/t Ag).

  • Program Summary:

  • Winter 2025 drill program designed for 4,000 m; completed 4,244 m across 16 holes.

  • Results released for 10 holes (2,409 m); assays from remaining six holes pending (expected Oct 2025).

  • Future Plans:

  • Summer 2025‑2026 drill program slated for Oct 2025 launch, targeting 12,000–15,000 m.

  • Capital allocation: 40 % to Resource Expansion Program, 60 % to New Discoveries Program.

  • Webinar: CEO Joaquín Marias will host a live Q&A on Sep 23, 2025 at 12 pm ET / 9 am PT (registration link provided).
