Tombstone Property Drilling Program Complete 29 RC Drill Holes

VANCOUVER – Aztec Minerals Corp. has received the results from an additional three holes of its reverse circulation portion of the 2025 drilling program at the Tombstone Property in Southeastern Arizona. The 2025 drilling program has now completed 29 RC drill holes, with results from 3 holes drilled in the historic Head Center Mine Area of the Contention Target announced herein.
Highlights include drill hole TR25-17 that tested the previously undrilled Head Center Area in the northern Contention Target and returned broad zone of 36.5m averaging 8.1 gpt Au and 49.7 gpt Ag including 4.56m of 58.5 gpt Au and 158.0 gpt Ag. Further downhole, 16.7m at 39.11 gpt AgEq (1 gpt Ag and 0.42 gpt Au) was intersected. TR25-17A returned 53.08 gpt Ag and 0.58 gpt Au over 18.2m ending with 7.6 m of open stope. As a result of the stope in TR25-17A, the drill was moved several meters west to collar TR25-17.
Additionally, drill hole TR25-16, collared 45m south of TR25-17 intersected two zones of mineralization of 50.2 m at42.67 gpt Ag and 0.67 gpt Au including 3 m of historic workings, and a second zone of 9.1m at 8.7 gpt Ag and 0.92 gpt Au). All reported intersection lengths are apparent widths of the mineralization, not true widths, which can range at the property from 30% to 100% of apparent widths.
CEO, Simon Dyakowski, said, “The high-grade gold intersection drilled in TR25-17 represents one of the strongest Gold results encountered to-date at the Tombstone Project and advances Aztec’s track record of high-grade precious metal discovery that the historic Tombstone Silver District is best known for. The strong, early, results of our recently expanded drilling program support the continued growth and expansion of the now significant, shallow, oxide gold-silver mineralization target.”
