Orvana releases 2026 assay results from Taguas; updates El Valle-Boináš drilling
Canada NewsWire TSX:ORV OTCQX: ORVMF Taguas Highlights Completion lab results from TADD-279 (Table 1), returned several intercepts, highlighted by a 1.25 metres interval (from 398 to 399.25 metres) grading 9.19 g/t gold, 5.55% copper. This high-grade intercept indicates that the high-sulfidation epithermal system remains rooted and mineralized at these depths, demonstrating vertical continuity of the hydrothermal system. VNIR–SWIR Terraspec measurements from TADD-279 reveal the development of sericitic alteration at depth, consistent with observations from TADD-278.
This alteration pattern strengthens the interpretation that the hydrothermal system persists at depth and supports plans to extend the hole in the next drilling campaign in an effort to vector toward the system's core. The next steps will focus on completing the petrographic studies of TADD-279 and integrating all drilling data from the 2026 program with historical datasets to refine the geological model and support planning for the next exploration campaign. This work will be aimed at vectoring toward a potential deeper porphyry source that may be driving the high-sulfidation epithermal system.
In addition, a technical workshop involving subject matter experts in porphyry and epithermal systems will be conducted during July to review the geological, geochemical, mineralogical, and alteration data, and to further refine targeting strategies for future drilling. TORONTO , July 2, 2026 /CNW/ - Orvana Minerals Corp. (TSX: ORV) (OTCQX: ORVMF)  ("Orvana " or "the Company") , is pleased to provide a further update on its deep drilling campaign at its 100%-owned Taguas Project in San Juan, Argentina, including additional assay results beyond those previously reported on May 27, 2026, and an update on planned next steps, with laboratory analyses and sup
