Abitibi Metals Extends High-Grade Zone at B26 With Step-Out Drilling

Story Highlights
  • Abitibi Metals’ latest drilling at B26 extends the western high-grade Copper Stringer zone by about 300 metres and confirms it remains open. These strong copper-equivalent intercepts underpin the deposit’s growth potential and reinforce the western down-plunge area as a key focus for expansion.
  • Broad alteration halos and localized high grades in wide step-out holes demonstrate geological continuity and exploration upside at B26. With over 8,200 metres drilled, a third rig planned, and 40,000 metres targeted for 2026, Abitibi is driving resource growth and quality improvements at the project.

An update from Abitibi Metals ( (TSE:AMQ) ) is now available.

Abitibi Metals reported strong step-out drilling results at its B26 polymetallic deposit in Québec, highlighted by a key hole intersecting 1.81% copper equivalent over 15 metres, including 2.71% copper equivalent over 7 metres in the western down-plunge zone. These intercepts extend the high-grade Copper Stringer zone by about 300 metres beyond the current block model and confirm that mineralization remains open to the west, reinforcing B26 as a priority growth area for the company.

Additional step-out holes up to 350 metres from existing drilling encountered broad alteration halos and localized higher-grade copper equivalent values, indicating robust geological continuity and substantial exploration upside despite some grade variability. With more than 8,200 metres drilled so far this year, a third rig being added, and 40,000 metres of planned drilling for 2026, Abitibi is positioning B26 for meaningful resource expansion and quality upgrades that could enhance the project’s long-term value for stakeholders.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:AMQ) stock is a Sell with a C$0.57 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Abitibi Metals stock, see the TSE:AMQ Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on AMQ Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, AMQ is a Neutral.

The score is primarily held back by weak operating performance (no revenue, widening losses, and ongoing cash burn). A debt-free balance sheet and expanded equity/assets provide meaningful financial stability, but technical signals are soft (below short-term averages with weak momentum) and valuation support is limited due to a negative P/E and no dividend.
