14 minutes

In this company update, we sit down with Joaquín Marías, President and CEO of Argenta Silver Corp. (TSX.V:AGAG | OTCQB:AGAGF | FRA:T1K), to discuss the significant acceleration of exploration activities at the El Quevar Project in Salta Province, Argentina. Joaquín provides a deep dive into the company’s upsized 25,000-meter drill program, the technical milestones ahead for 2026, and the recent discovery of a new gold-copper system.

Key Discussion Points:

Expanded 25,000m Drill Program: Originally planned at 15,000 meters, the program has been significantly upsized to 25,000 meters through April 2026, with a total goal of 45,000 meters by the end of 2026.

New Exploration Frontiers: The company has more than doubled its exploration area from 25 square kilometers to 60 square kilometers, incorporating extensive geophysics, surface work, and environmental baseline studies.

Gold-Copper Discovery at Carmen: Results from the January 21st release highlighted a significant new discovery 400–500 meters from the main resource, featuring 44 meters of gold and copper mineralization, suggesting a distinct and rich mineral system.

Path to Economics: Argenta is initiating advanced metallurgical test work and technical studies to build upon the existing 50-million-ounce pure silver resource, moving the project closer to a formal Mineral Resource Update and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).

Strong Financial Position: Following a successful $23 million bought deal financing in January, Argenta is fully funded with over $40 million CAD to execute its aggressive 2026 exploration and development mandates.

Please send me any follow up questions you have for Joaquin. My email address is [email protected].
