Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce additional assay results from the company’s Phase 3 diamond drill program at the Berenguela silver-copper-manganese deposit located in the Department of Puno in southern Peru. Rushton explained that the latest results are based on 19 drill holes from the ongoing 90-hole diamond drilling campaign. The drilling program is primarily focused on infill work along a 225-metre strike length across two key zones within the existing resource area. The goal of the campaign is to better define higher-grade mineralization suitable for potential early-stage mining opportunities while also improving geological understanding of the broader deposit. The company is targeting several important objectives through the current drill campaign, including delineating high-grade zones that may support initial mining activities and refining the geological model for future planning and development work. To date, Aftermath Silver has completed approximately 15,540 metres of core drilling across three phases of activity. Management noted that assay results from approximately 15 additional holes remain outstanding and are expected to be reported in future updates. Rushton added that copper results from the latest holes have also been encouraging and could provide additional benefits to the project’s economics through potential future production scenarios. The company also reported that infill drilling across Domains 1 and 2 of the current mineral resource estimate has now been completed. Drilling activities have temporarily shifted to additional geotechnical work designed to support the ongoing pre-feasibility study currently underway. This work is being supervised by local Peruvian engineering company Amphos 21. Beyond the existing resource footprint, exploration activity continues to generate additional targets. The company noted that drilling has also identified high-grade copper mineralization near the eastern portion of the resource area where road construction is planned. In addition, sampling within the Southwest Intrusive/Skarn target area returned anomalous copper mineralization associated with silicified limestone over an approximate two-kilometre strike length. Management believes the combination of resource expansion potential, higher-grade mineralization targets, and ongoing engineering work continues to strengthen the long-term development outlook for the Berenguela project. #proactiveinvestors #aftermathsilverltd #tsxv #aag #otcqx #aagff #mining #BerenguelaProject #SilverProject #CopperProject #Manganese #PreFeasibilityStudy #PFS #MiningDevelopment #PeruMining #Mining #Silver #Exploration #ResourceDevelopment #MiningStocks #CriticalMinerals
