Astra Exploration (OTCQB:ATEPF) reported progress at its La Manchuria gold-silver project in Argentina and Don Mario gold project in Chile, plus new analyst coverage from ATB Cormark Capital Markets.
Phase III at La Manchuria completed 16 DDH holes totaling ~5,170 metres, with veins and/or veinlets intersected in every hole and assays expected between July and September. At Don Mario, Astra finished low-cost targeting work including satellite alteration mapping, CS-NSAMT, and geochemical and spectral surveys, outlining a 1.8 x 2 km silica-alunite anomaly. According to Astra, a recent C$15M financing supports ongoing work. On May 22, 2026, Zach Matheson of ATB Cormark initiated independent research coverage, and Astra engaged BTV for a one-time C$9,650 investor-awareness video.
Astra Exploration (OTCQB: ATEPF / TSXV: ASTR) has commenced a Phase III diamond drill program at the La Manchuria gold‑silver project in Santa Cruz, Argentina. Mobilization is complete and drilling is underway, testing Main Zone and Eastern Zone veins at ~250–300 m vertical depth.
The program is a minimum of 5,000 metres, expected to finish by mid‑June 2026. All planned drilling is fully funded; the company reports a treasury balance of approximately C$17,000,000. Additional drill and corporate updates will follow.
Astra (OTCQB: ATEPF) reported final assays from five drill holes at the La Manchuria gold-silver project, highlighting 2.3 m at 500 g/t Ag and 1.46 g/t Au (including 0.5 m at 2,197 g/t Ag and 6.23 g/t Au) in hole LMD-137. Phase II totalled 5,119 m; 23 of 25 holes intersected potentially economic mineralization. The West Feeder is outlined over ~750 m strike and remains open; the company is funded for a minimum 5,000 m Phase III program to test depth extensions and feeder convergence.
Astra Exploration (OTCQB: ATEPF) reported assays from seven Phase II drill holes at La Manchuria, Argentina, including 0.5m @ 2,371 g/t Ag & 11.09 g/t Au (LMD-130) and multiple other high-grade narrow intercepts. Several key veins (East and West Feeders) were extended along strike and remain open in all directions.
Company is fully funded for a minimum 5,000 metre drill program expected to begin in April; five holes remain pending assay results.
Astra (OTCQB: ATEPF) reported assays from seven Phase II drill holes at La Manchuria, Argentina, including 6.3 metres grading 837 g/t Ag and 3.32 g/t Au in the newly discovered Basalto Zone. Multiple holes returned gold and silver intervals; the system remains open in all directions. The company is funded for a further 5,000 metres of drilling expected to start in late March or early April.
Veins may converge at depth, creating high‑grade feeder targets; assays remain pending for 12 additional holes.
Astra Exploration (OTCQB: ATEPF) will exhibit and present at two Toronto events around PDAC 2026: the Metals Investor Forum (Feb 27–28) and PDAC 2026 (Mar 1–4).
Astra's CEO, Brian Miller, will present Feb 27 at 5:20pm and Mar 2 at 3:00pm; the team will staff Booth #2412A and Core Shack Booth #3112B.
Astra (TSXV: ATEPF) reported first assays from six Phase II drill holes at the La Manchuria gold-silver project, Argentina, with high-grade intercepts including 3.1 m @ 9.04 g/t Au and 1,286 g/t Ag (including 0.9 m @ 25.14 g/t Au and 3,102 g/t Ag) from LMD-121.
Other notable results include LMD-118 (1.4 m @ 16.44 g/t Au and 81 g/t Ag). Nineteen holes remain pending; the company plans geophysics in February and a second ~5,000 m Phase II in March 2026.
Astra Exploration (OTCQB: ATEPF) reports it is about halfway through a 10,000 metre Phase II diamond drill program at La Manchuria, with 5,119 metres in 25 holes completed. Initial assays are expected in December 2025 with most results in early 2026; drilling is paused pending results and will resume in early 2026.
Key technical highlights include a strike extension of the West Feeder from ~500 m to 800 m, veins or veinlets in every hole, a first continuous vein in the Eastern Zone (~200 m strike, up to 150 m depth), a new parallel structure ~350 m northeast (Road Zone), and a 3-D resistivity model that is successfully predicting subsurface veins.
Astra Exploration (OTCQB: ATEPF) has mobilized equipment and started a Phase II diamond drilling program at the La Manchuria gold-silver project in Santa Cruz, Argentina.
The program is planned for approximately 10,000 metres of DDH, with 5,000 metres scheduled by December 2025 and a further 5,000 metres in Q1 2026. All planned drilling is fully funded with a reported treasury balance of over C$7,000,000.
Phase I results (May 2025) indicated a larger-than-expected vein system with numerous near-surface intervals of significant gold and silver grades and support for an epithermal system open in all directions; detailed mapping shows low-temperature silica, vein fragments, and favorable host rocks in andesitic units and post-mineral breccias. Additional drill-program details will be released in coming weeks.
Astra Exploration (OTCQB: ATEPF) has initiated ground operations at its La Manchuria Gold and Silver Project in Argentina, deploying crews for detailed mapping, regional ground magnetics, topographical surveys, and sampling ahead of an upcoming Phase II drill program.
The company reports that surface findings of low temperature vein fragments support their model of southeast-plunging veins, suggesting a preserved epithermal system hidden by post-mineral volcanics. Phase I drilling confirmed favorable host rock units beneath andesites, with thicknesses ranging from 10 to 50 metres, indicating potential for a large-scale gold-silver epithermal system.
Additionally, Astra announced participation in several upcoming investor events, including the Precious Metals Summit, Metals Investor Forum Vancouver, and a European Roadshow with Michael Gentile.
