Minaurum Drills High-Grade Silver in 250 m Step-Out at Alamos Silver Project: 12.35 m of 408 g/t AgEq, including 3.20 m of 1,277 g/t AgEq
High-grade silver explorer transitioning from discovery to resource expansion with a massive cash-funded drill program.
The February 10, 2026, news release reports high-grade silver intercepts from the ongoing Phase II 50,000-metre drill program at the Alamos Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico. The highlight is hole AL25-163, which intersected 12.35 m of 408 g/t AgEq (including 3.20 m of 1,277 g/t AgEq) in the Europa Vein Zone. This hole represents a 250-metre step-out from the current mineral resource boundary. Additional results include hole AL25-153 (2.35 m of 374 g/t AgEq) and several narrower intercepts from the Promontorio and Travesia zones. The company also noted a minor administrative correction regarding insider participation in its December 2025 financing.
- Resource Expansion Potential: The 250-metre step-out in hole AL25-163 is significant because it demonstrates that high-grade mineralization continues well beyond the limits of the Inferred Resource announced just weeks prior (January 28, 2026).
- Grade Continuity: The intersected grade of 408 g/t AgEq is higher than the average grade of the current 55.2 million ounce AgEq Inferred Resource (320 g/t AgEq), suggesting potential for grade improvement or at least maintenance of high grades as the footprint grows.
- Technical Validation: Intersecting "strong grades and widths" in a step-out validates the geological model used by the new technical team (former SilverCrest experts hired in mid-2025).
- Strategic Momentum: This news sustains the market interest generated by the maiden resource and the $25 million financing closed in December 2025. It confirms that the company is successfully deploying its large capital pool to increase the project's scale.
Minaurum Silver Inc. (formerly Minaurum Gold) is focused on the Alamos Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico. The project is a district-scale, high-grade epithermal system with 26 identified vein zones. - Flagship Project: Alamos Silver Project. - Ownership: 100%. - Permitting: The project is unique among Mexican juniors as it is already permitted for both exploration and underground mining production (30-year MIA permit). - Current Resource: 55.2 million ounces AgEq at 320 g/t AgEq (Inferred), based on only 3 of the 26 vein zones.
