Aztec Minerals ( (TSE:AZT) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Aztec Minerals reported new reverse circulation drilling results from its 2025-2026 program at the Tombstone gold-silver project in Arizona, showing broad, shallow oxide mineralization that significantly extends the Contention and Westside zones. Step-out drilling in the Westside area widened the mineralized corridor to about 0.4 kilometers and confirmed strong intercepts, including 107.9 meters grading 0.62 grams per tonne gold and 24.8 grams per tonne silver.

Additional holes around the Contention main zone expanded mineralization to the west and to depth, with one hole cutting 112.5 meters averaging 0.48 grams per tonne gold and 12.6 grams per tonne silver, and several holes ending in mineralization, indicating open extensions. With 59 RC and six core holes now completed in the 17,000-meter campaign, the results underscore the potential for significant growth of near-surface oxide resources at Tombstone, supporting Aztec’s strategy to outline a larger, continuous gold-silver system that could enhance project scale and investor interest.
