Power Metallic Confirms High-Grade Lion Zone as Drilling Refines Québec Copper-Nickel Target

Story Highlights
  • Power Metallic’s winter drilling at the Lion Zone returned strong high-grade copper-equivalent intercepts, confirming a near-surface high-grade shoot and supporting a 2026 resource upgrade.
  • Infill and step-out drilling around Lion, Tiger and Elephant refined the limits of mineralization and geological model, defining boundaries and future targets but yielding few new high-grade discoveries.

Power Metallic Mines Inc ( (TSE:PNPN) ) has issued an update.

Power Metallic Mines Inc. reported strong assay results from its Winter 2026 drill campaign at the Lion Zone, highlighted by hole PML-26-050, which intersected 27.10 metres grading 2.17% copper equivalent and a high-grade interval of 4.76 metres at 10.43% copper equivalent. These infill holes on the eastern side of Lion are intended to upgrade resources to the Indicated category ahead of a planned 2026 mineral resource estimate and support the model of a high-grade copper shoot near surface.

Additional drilling, including hole PML-26-052 on the western high-grade shoot, continued to confirm mineralization consistent with earlier wider-spaced drilling, while shallow infill work targeted zones potentially amenable to early open-pit extraction. Exploratory holes around Lion and at the Elephant and Tiger targets helped define the Lion Zone’s eastern boundary, identified favourable ultramafic units and localized silver-rich intervals, but returned mostly low-grade or insignificant mineralization, refining the geological model and future drill targets rather than adding new discoveries.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:PNPN) stock is a Buy with a C$3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Power Metallic Mines Inc stock, see the TSE:PNPN Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on PNPN Stock

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

The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance driven by ongoing losses and significant cash burn in a pre-revenue phase. Technicals are supportive with a strong uptrend, but overbought signals add near-term risk. Valuation is constrained by negative earnings and no stated dividend yield.
