Advance Metals hits record 4,120 g/t silver intercept at Gavilanes

Advance Metals’ latest diamond core drilling at the Gavilanes project in Mexico uncovered a one-metre section grading 4,120 g/t silver at 66.7 m depth, the highest individual silver assay the company has recorded. The drill also intersected a 4.6-metre zone with 945 g/t silver, 1.4 % zinc and 1 % lead, and a deeper 12-metre interval containing 21 g/t silver, 3.8 % zinc and 3.7 % lead, plus a richer 5.3-metre core with 36 g/t silver, 7.7 % zinc and 6.3 % lead.

Dr. Adam McKinnon highlighted the significance of the high-grade zinc-lead interval, noting its potential to add base-metal credit as the mineralised footprint expands. The project lies 23 km from First Majestic Silver’s San Dimas mine, a world-class operation that has produced over 745 million ounces of silver. Recent regulatory easing in Mexico is facilitating permitting for existing concessions, though new concessions remain limited. Advance holds 11 concessions over 136 km² at Gavilanes and plans a maiden JORC-compliant resource estimate by year-end.
