Tinka Provides Initial Drill Results at Silvia Copper-Gold Project and Updates Exploration Progress at Ayawilca
Dr. Graham Carman, President and CEO of Tinka, stated: "The initial drilling at Silvia NW has intersected relatively narrow copper - gold zones so far, however the strong skarn alteration and coincidence of copper and gold is encouraging and suggests that a significant mineralizing source could be nearby. The footprint drill area tested was also restricted in size, being a small part of the overall target area at Silvia. Multiple copper-gold targets exist at Silvia NW covering several square kilometres, and the most prospective areas will be covered by a ground geophysical survey following cessation of the current wet season in May."
"At Ayawilca, good progress is being made with our active discussions with the local communities to extend our social licence at the project for an additional three years. Tinka has been working with these same communities for over 10 years, and our relationship remains strong. More details of a drilling program at Ayawilca, scheduled for early Q3 2026, will be forthcoming."
