Minaurum drills high-grade silver at Alamos project in Mexico

Minaurum Gold (TSXV: MGG) announced Thursday the initial results of its 2025 resource-definition drill program targeting the Promontorio, Europa and Travesia vein zones at its Alamos silver project in Sonora, Mexico.

These vein zones returned numerous high-grade intersections, including 5.85 metres of 476 grams per tonne (g/t) silver equivalent (AgEq), 21.45 metres of 220 g/t AgEq, 2.4 metres of 499 g/t AgEq, and 1.75 metres of 845 g/t AgEq.

“Drilling at both Europa and Promontorio continues to confirm the continuation of strong, wide zones of high-grade silver mineralization at depth and along strike,” Minaurum CEO Darrell Rader said in a news release.

“At Promontorio, drilling intersected over 21 metres of robust carbonate replacement-style lead-zinc-silver mineralization,” Rader highlighted, noting that the drill results, along with those pending, will be incorporated into a forthcoming resource estimate for the Alamos project.

To date, the company has completed 28 holes on the project’s three vein zones. The latest results cover holes AL25-129 through 140, with the rest pending.

The 1-km-long Promontorio zone consists of multiple veins, including Veta Grande and Veta Las Guijas, where drilling has confirmed significant skarn/carbonate replacement (CRD) mineralization. This zone, along with Europa, is one of the high-priority targets in which Minaurum said it will establish an initial resource at Alamos.

The Travesia vein zone lies to the north of the Promontorio zone and in the same structural corridor, with further drilling expected to test the potential for high-grade mineralization along strike and down dip. At Europa, drilling completed by the company this year has extended the known mineralization.

By market close in Toronto, Minaurum’s stock was down 6%, as the wider precious metals market slumped. The company has a C$168.7 million ($120 million) market capitalization.
