Argenta Silver Corp. has reported high-grade silver intercepts from a step-out drill hole at its El Quevar project in Salta Province, Argentina, extending the known mineralization at the Yaxtché deposit.
Drill hole QVD-469 intersected 446 g/t silver over 28.0 meters, including a higher-grade interval of 1,195 g/t silver over 6.0 meters. The hole was drilled as a 120-meter step-out to the northwest of the current mineral resource boundary, demonstrating the continuity of high-grade silver mineralization beyond the previously defined limits. These results are part of the company's ongoing 2025–2026 diamond drilling campaign at its flagship El Quevar project.
For precious metals traders, this news highlights the potential for new silver supply from development-stage projects, which could influence long-term supply dynamics. However, near-term silver prices remain driven by macroeconomic factors such as interest rate expectations and industrial demand.
