Aftermath Silver Hits 30m of 77 g/t Silver and 2.93% Copper at Berenguela
Aftermath Silver reports high-grade intercepts from infill drilling at its Berenguela project in Peru, including 30 metres grading 77 g/t silver and 2.93% copper, boosting the project's resource confidence.
Aftermath Silver Ltd. has released additional assay results from its Phase 3 diamond drill program at the Berenguela silver-copper-manganese deposit in southern Peru, reporting a high-grade intercept of 30.0 metres grading 77 g/t silver and 2.93% copper.
The results come from the final 15 holes of a 90-hole program, targeting infill drilling along a 100-metre strike length within the existing resource. The company aims to delineate high-grade mineralization suitable for a starter pit in future mining operations. The intercept highlights the deposit's potential for near-surface, high-grade production, which could enhance the project's economics.
For precious metals traders, high-grade silver intercepts like this support the supply-side narrative for silver, a metal with growing industrial demand from solar energy and electronics. While silver prices are influenced by macroeconomic factors such as interest rates and industrial activity, new discoveries can impact long-term supply expectations.

Investors will watch for a preliminary economic assessment or feasibility study from Aftermath Silver, which could further define the project's viability. The company plans to continue resource definition drilling and metallurgical testing to advance Berenguela toward development.
