New Discoveries Reinforces District Potential at Joaquin


Unico Silver Limited (“USL” or the “Company”) is pleased to report assay results for 21 holes (3587m) as part of an ongoing drill program at the Company’s 100%-owned Joaquin Project in Santa Cruz, Argentina. This includes exceptional high-grade silver gold intercepts at three prospects – La Morocha, La Negra SE and La Morocha SE.


HIGHLIGHTS

  • Infill drilling at La Morocha defines the up-dip projection of high-grade mineralisation.

JDD064-25

42.4m at 437gpt AgEq (0gpt Au, 437gpt Ag) from 49.6m, including:

  • 1.85m at 8335gpt AgEq (0.2gpt Au, 8313gpt Ag) from 52.7m
  • At La Negra SE, drilling has extended mineralisation a further 200m to the southeast, as defined by exploration hole JDD047-25 that returned 34.7m at 110gpt AgEq (0.4gt Au, 69gpt Ag) from 121.5m.
  • Significant silver gold assay results from extensional and infill drilling within La Negra SE, include:

JDD048-25

43m at 256gpt AgEq (1.8gpt Au, 74gpt Ag) from 75m, including:

  • 11m at 714pt AgEq (6.5gpt Au, 84gpt Ag) from 97.5m

JDD052-25

Gm at 787gpt AgEq (7.7gpt Au, 38gpt Ag) from 162m

  • 4.4m at 714pt AgEq (15gpt Au, 31gpt Ag) from 166.6m

JDD056-25

34m at 170gpt AgEq (0.5gpt Au, 121gpt Ag) from 177m, including:

  • 14.3m at 341pt AgEq (1.1gpt Au, 235gpt Ag) from 183m
  • 1.75m at 1621gpt AgEq (6.8gpt Au, 959gpt Ag) from 189m

JDD061-25

8.4m at 413gpt AgEq (1.2gpt Au, 290gpt Ag) from 51.6m, including:

  • 0.Gm at 3156pt AgEq (8.8gpt Au, 2303gpt Ag) from 51.6m

JDD063-25

71m at 131gpt AgEq (0.7gpt Au, 62gpt Ag) from 7m, including:

  • 24m at 287pt AgEq (1.9gpt Au, 99gpt Ag) from 49m
  • Mineralisation is now defined over 725m of strike and 150m of vertical extent and remains open to the southeast and at depth. True thickness of 10m to 75m and increases at structural intersections.
  • Significant follow up silver-gold assay results from the La Morocha SE discovery include:

JDD070-25

20m at 160gpt AgEq (0.6gpt Au, 120gpt Ag) from 175m, including:

  • 4m at 411gpt AgEq (1.6gpt Au, 249gpt Ag) from 187m

JDD071-25

36m at 130gpt AgEq (0.5gpt Au, 84gpt Ag) from 127m, including:

  • 20.4m at 17Ggpt AgEq (0.8gpt Au, 102gpt Ag) from 138.3m

JDD075-25

17m at 200gpt AgEq (1.2gpt Au, 79gpt Ag) from 215m, including:

  • 7m at 380gpt AgEq (2.8gpt Au, 106gpt Ag) from 218m
  • Mineralisation is currently defined over 400m strike and 175m vertical extent and is open to the southeast and at depth. True thickness ranges from 15 to 60 metres.

Managing Director Todd Williams states:

“The Joaquin Project continues to deliver exceptional results. Infill drilling at La Morocha has confirmed that bonanza-grade silver mineralisation—typical of that previously mined underground by Pan American Silver— extends far closer to surface than previously understood. A standout intercept of 1.8 metres at 8,335gpt AgEq from 52 metres demonstrates the potential for early, near-surface ounces and strengthens the case…
