Exciting Silver-Lead-Zinc Discoveries at Kolpa Mine Unveiled
Positive Developments at Kolpa Mine
Endeavour Silver Corp. (“Endeavour” or the “Company”) (TSX: EDR, NYSE: EXK) has revealed encouraging drilling results from its ongoing exploration activities at the Kolpa Mine. Located in Peru’s Huancavelica province, the mine is characterized by unique geological formations shaped by the Andean Orogeny. These structural formations are crucial in guiding the distribution of mineralization, making the area a prime candidate for exploration.
Understanding the Geological Structures
The geology at Kolpa reveals sub-vertical structures that result from intense compressive forces. These geological formations lead to well-defined vein systems that trend southwest to northeast. This structural uprightness not only provides insights into how mineral deposits lie but also enables the identification of corridors where multiple vein systems align with each other, thus augmenting the potential for finding new mineral resources.
Exploration Corridors and Drilling Focus
Endeavour has concentrated its drilling efforts in Corridor 3, particularly on the Poderosa West and Caudalosa Chica veins, which are known for their mineral resource potential. The Poderosa West vein, mapped over approximately 2.5 kilometers, has shown substantial mineralization in existing drill holes. The Company has completed a total of 14 drill holes, summing up to 2,343 meters at this site, and encountered promising fill zones of mineralization.
Highlighted Drill Results
The recent drilling has revealed notable intersections such as:
- 247 gpt Ag, 0.77% Pb, 10.70% Zn and 0.55% Cu over 8.20 metres estimated true width in hole DDH-H1-25-88
- 266 gpt Ag, 1.34% Pb, 4.73% Zn and 0.23% Cu over 5.15 metres estimated true width in hole DDH-H1-25-92
Meanwhile, the Caudalosa Chica vein, extending over 1.5 kilometers, saw substantial findings from three drill holes. The ongoing analysis is aimed at refining a systematic exploration program designed to unlock Kolpa’s potential fully.
Future Plans and Developments
Management is keen on utilizing both surface and underground exploration results to formulate a comprehensive drilling strategy at the Kolpa Mine. At Poderosa West, the continuous enhancement of underground development is providing enhanced access for new drilling stations, promoting an aggressive expansion of drilling initiatives.
Additionally, stakeholders can expect the drilling activity in Corridor 3 to ramp up in late Q4, as the Company has applied for surface drilling across the entirety of the 2.5-kilometer vein.
Expressions from Management
“Kolpa’s geology continues to demonstrate outstanding potential, with multiple underexplored targets that point to a long runway of discovery,” said Dan Dickson, Chief Executive Officer of Endeavour. He emphasized that the company is just beginning to tap into the wealth of opportunities available through diligent exploration efforts.
