QQQ · Price

Executive Summary

  • Questcorp Mining and partner Riverside Resources have launched a fully‑funded Phase 2 exploration program at the La Union Project in Sonora, Mexico.
  • The program will expand geological mapping, geochemistry, geophysics, structural analysis and prepare for follow‑up drilling slated for early summer 2026.
  • Recent Phase 1 results include a high‑grade 30 m interval (20.2 g/t Au, 226 g/t Ag) at Union Mine and a new sediment‑hosted gold discovery (42 m @ 0.3 g/t Au) at Luis Hill.

Key Details

  • Phase 1 Highlights (announced Jan 22 2026):
  • 30 m chip‑channel interval grading 20.2 g/t Au and 226 g/t Ag at Union Mine.
  • 42 m interval grading 0.3 g/t Au at Luis Hill, representing a new sediment‑hosted gold discovery.

  • Phase 2 Objectives:

  • Refine existing drill targets (sediment‑hosted gold, underground sampling at Union Mine).
  • Test lead‑zinc anomalies in the Famosa North area (first drill test).
  • Conduct structural mapping in the northern property with external consultants.
  • Evaluate additional sediment‑hosted gold targets in the eastern portion of the project.
  • Follow‑up drilling at Luis Hill on hole UND25‑9 intercept.

  • Field Activities:

  • Geological mapping, geochemical sampling, and geophysical surveys across four target areas.
  • Expanded aeromagnetic drone survey covering the entire property to aid target refinement.

  • Funding & Timeline:

  • Program is fully funded; field teams mobilized immediately.
  • Planned drilling campaign targeted for early summer 2026.

  • Land Position Update (Mar 18 2026):

  • Famosa mineral concessions consolidated into Riverside’s land package, enhancing district‑scale holdings and supporting Phase 2 work.

  • Qualified Person: R. Tim Henneberry, P.Geo., Director of Questcorp, reviewed and approved the technical content under NI 43‑101.
