en.Wedoany.com Reported - Canadian mining company Pacifica Silver Corp. has released assay results from an additional 28 drill holes from the Phase 2 diamond drilling program at the Claudia gold-silver project, with samples showing high-grade precious metal mineralization, particularly the successful 600-meter strike extension of the newly discovered Justina vein. The project is located in the historic El Papantón mining district in Durango State.

The Phase 2 drilling program, totaling 20,000 meters, is fully funded. As of June 10, 2026, the company has completed 54 drill holes for a total of 12,750 meters. To ensure efficient and safe operations, management temporarily reduced the number of active rigs from three to two after the start of the dry season, while maintaining a steady exploration pace on priority targets within the deposit.

Highlight results indicate high potential in multiple zones. In the Aguilareña (Tres Reyes) zone, drill hole 26CLAU107D intercepted mineralization grading 0.94 g/t gold and 101 g/t silver over an 8.90-meter interval, including a 0.65-meter high-grade section grading 6.98 g/t gold and 981 g/t silver. Additionally, the Justina vein stood out in drill hole 26CLAU110D, returning 3.35 g/t gold and 600 g/t silver over a 0.50-meter interval.

Meanwhile, Pacifica Silver completed 31.6 line-kilometers of induced polarization and resistivity geophysical surveys in the central part of the claim block, identifying a high-chargeability anomaly. Data is currently being analyzed to guide subsequent drilling. Company CEO Todd Anthony stated that these results confirm the expansion potential of the southern zone and demonstrate the scale and consistency required to consolidate a resource of significant importance.
