Rhea-AI Summary

Contango Silver & Gold Inc. (CTGO) reported initial 2026 surface diamond drilling results and underground exploration progress at the Lucky Shot Project in Alaska. Surface hole LSS26016 from Coleman Pad D intersected 2.45 meters grading 86.05 g/t gold, including 0.80 meters grading 244.30 g/t and 0.30 meters grading 49.96 g/t. From Coleman Pad C, LSS26003 returned 0.50 meters grading 81.57 g/t gold, with additional multi-meter mineralized intervals in other holes.

The company has completed about 5,700 meters of drilling in 27 holes, roughly 93% of the planned 6,000-meter program. Underground exploration development totals 332 meters of a planned 830 meters (about 40%), and the West Drift Extension has been completed to design. Development encountered two previously unmodeled KM-style mineralized vein structures, KM2 and KM3, with selective hand samples from stockpiled material assaying up to 395.10 g/t gold.

Contango emphasizes that Lucky Shot is an exploration-stage property with no mineral reserves declared. Reported drill lengths are downhole core lengths; true widths are not yet known. Selective underground samples are non-representative and do not establish bulk grade, continuity, mineral resources, mineral reserves or economic viability.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, it recorded a loss from operations of $8.5 M versus income of $23.0 M in Q2‑2025, while a large $10.3 M gain on derivative contracts drove net income of $4.8 M (or $0.14 per diluted share).

Rhea-AI Summary

Contango Silver & Gold Inc. furnished a new corporate presentation under Regulation FD, outlining its capital structure, operating mines and growth pipeline. The deck describes a dual‑listed North American silver‑gold producer with 33.5 M shares outstanding, Cash $97.5 M, a $20.0 M convertible debenture, $43.6 M project debt and a Market Cap $494M.

The presentation highlights the Manh Choh mine (30% interest), which in 2025 produced 60,200 oz of gold and 57,315 oz of silver, generated a $102 million cash distribution to Contango and reported AISC $1,616 per oz sold.

Management states a five‑year development pipeline targeting 200,000 oz Au and 5.0 Moz Ag of annual production and includes extensive cautionary language on forward‑looking statements, non‑GAAP metrics and differences between NI 43‑101 and S‑K 1300 mineral resource reporting.

Rhea-AI Summary

Contango Silver & Gold Inc. amended its credit facility through a new consent and amendment, mainly to convert its remaining gold hedge contracts into debt. An indirect wholly owned subsidiary increased term loans by approximately $33 million, using the proceeds to terminate required hedge agreements on 15,000 ounces of gold and to buy replacement put option contracts covering the same volume with maturities in March and June 2027. The amendment also lowers the applicable margin under the credit agreement from 5.00% to 3.63% per year, which the company reports as an interest rate of about 7.40%. Total principal under the amended credit facility now stands at $46.3M, with scheduled repayments of $1M on September 30, 2026, $1M on December 31, 2026, about $15.5M on March 31, 2027, and about $28.8M on June 30, 2027. Management highlights that removing the hedge book gives shareholders full, unhedged exposure to future gold prices while retaining flexibility to prepay the debt.

This removes future contingent obligations tied to project milestones and leaves the company with full control of Lucky Shot.

Contango also reported receiving a $9 million cash distribution from the Peak Gold JV related to production at the Manh Choh mine. Operationally, the company has begun a 6,800‑meter surface drill program at Lucky Shot, advanced permitting and field work at Johnson Tract, and completed over 14,000 meters of a planned 40,000‑meter drill program at Kitsault Valley, with an updated mineral resource estimate targeted for late July.

Updated cross-sections and models show a more detailed and complex interpretation of the Lucky Shot vein system.

Contango has restarted underground exploration development with contractor GMS Mine Repair & Maintenance, which has advanced 43 meters toward a planned 800 meters of excavation over roughly five months. This work is intended to create access and drill platforms for about 12,000 meters of further underground drilling, supporting ongoing technical studies and work intended to inform a Feasibility Study at Lucky Shot targeted for H1 2027.
