Emerita Intersects 7.2m Grading 1.0% Copper, 4.0% Lead, 7.5% Zinc, 0.13 g/t Gold and 83.32 g/t Silver at La Infanta Deposit; Deep Hole Extends the La Infanta Deposit Limits at Depth

  • Emerita Resources Corp. announced recent drilling results at its wholly owned La Infanta deposit, part of the Iberian Belt West project in western Spain.
  • A NI 43-101 compliant Prefeasibility Study is currently being prepared for the project, following details released in December 2025.
  • Drill hole IN095 intercepted 7.2 meters grading 1.0% copper, 4.0% lead, 7.5% zinc, 0.13 g/t gold, and 83.32 g/t silver.
  • Drill hole IN093 intercepted 16.9 meters grading 0.2% copper, 1.5% lead, 1.9% zinc, 0.11 g/t gold, and 9.29 g/t silver, including a higher-grade interval of 4.8 meters grading 0.6% copper, 3.0% lead, 3.8% zinc, 0.12 g/t gold, and 21.28 g/t silver.
  • Exploration drill hole INN08 tested deep at 380 meters below surface, intercepting 2.8 meters grading 0.3% copper, 0.7% lead, 1.7% zinc, 0.31 g/t gold, and 18.9 g/t silver, extending mineralization beyond previously defined resource limits.
  • Seven infill drill holes were drilled at 50-meter center spacing, with all holes encountering mineralization and four exceeding one ounce per tonne of silver.
  • The La Infanta deposit reported robust silver grades, with existing Indicated and Inferred resource estimates at 94 g/t and 74 g/t silver respectively.
  • Results from INN08 demonstrate that mineralization continues past the limits of the 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate, suggesting potential for additional resource delineation.
  • The Company has paused its drilling campaign for the summer season to evaluate geological models and generate new targets across the IBW, San Antonio, and Nuevo Tintillo projects.
  • Summer activities will include field exploration such as geophysical ground surveys, geological mapping, prospecting, sampling, and compilation.
  • Quality Assurance and Quality Control protocols involved core logging, sampling, and analysis by ALS laboratories in Seville, Ireland, and Romania, with 10% of samples reanalyzed at AGQ Lab Sevilla.
  • Scientific and technical information was reviewed by Danniel Oosterman, P.Geo., the Project Director.
  • Emerita Resources Corp. is focused on mineral exploration in Spain, with technical operations based in Sevilla and administrative offices in Toronto.
