The First Assay

12 qualifying holes

An all-Americas Friday. GR Silver's SE Extension step-out at San Marcial was the only fresh assay release this morning, but two substantial reports that posted into yesterday's scrape gap round out the sheet: Roxmore's first infill results at Converse in Nevada — nine qualifying skarn intercepts led by 247 m of 0.51 g/t Au — and Mogotes' final Albor assays at Filo Sur, where 180 m of 0.98% CuEq from 108 m confirms a second discovery on the Macho Muerto fault, directly along strike from Filo del Sol. Twelve qualifying holes across three companies and three jurisdictions, with nearly everything starting shallow.

CV26-010C put 247.2 m of 0.51 g/t Au through a sparsely drilled block of inferred material at North Redline — and came back better than the model. As the first hole of Roxmore's 30,000 m inferred-to-indicated conversion program, that is exactly what the 5.9 Moz Converse resource needed: heap-leach grade over true widths of 75–100%, starting at 131.7 m, with the hole extending mineralization beyond the current PEA pit shell. 0.58× GT/MCap is solid rather than spectacular for a ~C$218M developer, and the hole ranks #16 among roughly 100 gold intercepts in the 30-day archive — this is a de-risking hole, not a discovery hole, and the market will price it as resource-conversion progress. Watch for a second core rig arriving mid-July, silver re-assay results in Q3, and the updated MRE in Q1 2027.
GT/MCap Spotlight — Top 5
GR Silver's 24.0× is an Ag-unit figure — silver GT runs ~30× gold's scale, so it is not comparable to the Au/Cu names. Best clean ratio: Roxmore's CV26-010C at 0.58×. Au and Cu metrics are on different price bases — not directly comparable across metals.

Copper owned the week — 8 of the top 10 holes, split between the Vicuña district (NGEx, ATEX) and Chile/Argentina porphyries. Radisson's 316 g/t bonanza hole was the lone gold entry.
