5. Abrasilver Resource Corp. (TSX: ABRA): 228 m @ 1.79 g/t Au, Diablillos project, Argentina · 408 g·m

228.0 m grading 1.79 g/t gold was intersected in DDH-26-061 from 101.0 m to 329.0 m downhole, entirely in oxides. This included 66.0 m at 4.04 g/t gold from 263.0 m, containing 11.0 m at 15.97 g/t gold from 276.0 m. The higher-grade zone lies approximately 50 m below the current open pit design and extends beyond the current Mineral Resource limits; intervals are drilled widths, with true widths unknown.

The assays cover four diamond drill holes at Oculto East within the Phase VI exploration program at the Diablillos project in Argentina. Follow-up drilling around DDH-26-061 is planned to test the lateral and down-dip extent of the oxide gold zone, with program completion expected by year-end and an updated Mineral Resource estimate expected in Q2/2027.
