Company Description
Capitan Silver Corp. develops mineral exploration targets centered on the Cruz de Plata silver-gold project in Durango, Mexico. The Vancouver-based company is focused on defining and expanding silver and gold mineralization at Cruz de Plata, where its exploration work includes drilling, geophysical surveys, surface mapping, sampling, and geological interpretation.
The company's principal project is reported as 100% owned and includes the Jesus Maria Silver Trend, a mineralized trend associated with mapped structures, intrusive contacts, and high-grade silver zones. Capitan Silver's technical updates describe reverse-circulation and diamond drilling, assay results reported in silver-equivalent and silver grades, and additional geological work intended to test strike extensions and depth continuity within the mineralized system.
Cruz de Plata has been described in company updates as a silver-rich system with gold mineralization and multiple target areas. Reported exploration work has included drilling near previously identified mineralized zones, follow-up drilling along the Jesus Maria vein, and airborne magnetotelluric geophysics across the property. The geophysical work is used to interpret conductivity and resistivity contrasts around intrusive and surrounding rock units and to refine targets along the Jesus Maria Silver Trend.
Capitan Silver's common shares trade in Canada on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol CAPT and in the United States on the OTCQX market under the symbol CAPTF. The company upgraded its U.S. trading market from OTCQB to OTCQX in 2026. Its public profile is therefore tied to a Canadian-listed mineral exploration issuer with a U.S. over-the-counter quotation and a project focus in Mexico's silver and gold exploration sector.
