Since 2015 Miguel Heredia and I have published the weekly newsletter ‘The Mining and Exploration News in Mexico’. It has been a very rewarding experience and we have learnt a lot in the process on Mexico and on the global mining industry. Although a pro-bono project, the previous format consumed a lot of time. We realized we could not keep reasonably doing this task in the same manner when recently had to put more than 10 hours in the week for producing the newsletter, while doing long hours on project work at the same time. To sustain this contribution, we are introducing a new, streamlined format with all the key mining activity in Mexico, with links to all the original press releases and sources. It is our intention to continue serving the industry as long as it remains fun and rewarding as it has been so far.

ON EXPLORATION
Algo Grande Copper Corp., provided an exploration update on its Adelita project in Sonora. The company recently completed Phase 1 drilling with assay results pending. Surface prospecting across the property collected 49 rock samples, 19 of which graded above 1% copper, confirming copper–gold–silver mineralization across multiple targets including Potrero South, Las Trancas, Cerro Grande Northwest, La Molina, and Mezquital. A significant new skarn zone was discovered at Potrero south, about 3 km south of Cerro Grande, with over 300 meters of surface exposure and samples exceeding 3% copper. Other highlights include high-grade samples including one with 41.4 % Cu, 1.97 g/t Au 1,570 g/t Ag at Las Trancas and 1.99 % Cu, 17.9 g/t Au and 44 g/t Ag at La Molina targets. The company confirmed mineralization on both limbs of the Cerro Grande limestone fold, and encouraging copper-bearing float samples associated with tourmaline breccias at Mezquital indicating possible porphyry systems. The results suggest a district-scale, multi-deposit copper-dominant skarn-porphyry system with notable gold and silver credits. Follow-up exploration including Phase II drilling is planned for Q2 2026 to target these multiple prospects.

ON MEXICO ISSUES
According to an analysis of SP Global Market Intelligence, the Mexican Mining Policy may affect Mexico-USA Critical Minerals Plan. Mexico is among the largest producers of six of the 60 minerals it imports from the United States, but the 2023 mining reform could limit the attraction of new investment. The agreement on critical minerals recently reached with the United States represents an opportunity for Mexico to boost its mining sector. Despite the agreement, President Sheinbaum has reiterated that no new mining concessions will be granted, nor will the strict 2022 law be modified, which could limit the attraction of new investments and the development of new projects.
Minaurum Silver Inc., Silverco Mining Ltd., Heliostar Metals Ltd., Capitan Silver Corp., and Axo Copper Corp., reported the best drilling intercepts in Mexico on the fourth week of February, 2026. Details are shown in the table below:
ON EXPLORATION
Barksdale Resources Corp., informed that it is reviewing a sample collection program to assay historic core drill samples and core from 2021 Barksdale drilling program for gold content. During the 2021 drill campaign, Barksdale encountered three broad intercepts of gold, including 1.97 g/t Au over 27m in hole SJ21-04; and two 21m intervals of 0.55 g/t Au followed by 1.57 g/t Au in hole SJ21-05.
Riverside Resources Inc., reported new assay results and exploration updates from its Ariel project in Sonora. Highlights include high-grade mineralization from veins in the northern Maria Luisa area, with values of up to 320 g/t Ag, 5.4% Pb, and 0.66 g/t Au. The company also completed detailed geological mapping and alteration mineral studies using spectral analysis to identify minerals associated with porphyry copper and high-sulphidation systems. In addition, a regional geophysical dataset was analyzed to prioritize drilling within permitted areas. Riverside expanded its land position through the acquisition of adjacent mineral concessions, consolidating the Ariel project into a single, drill-ready property covering 1,640 hectares. The work has further refined two principal target styles: a porphyry copper target and an epithermal target interpreted as the upper portion of a porphyry system.
Mammoth Resources Corp., identified potential draw point locations for small-scale gold-silver and pilot leach testing at its Tenoriba project in Chihuahua. Geologists analyzed thousands of surface samples and drill results, combined with geological and geophysical data, to pinpoint promising several draw point within the Carneritos area, with average gold grades ranging from about 0.97 g/t to 3.86 g/t. The target that shows high surface grades averaging 3.86 g/t gold has not been drilled yet. Next plans of the company are to carry out a field validation of the selected draw points; estimate size and tonnage; run metallurgical tests, and drill to define resources.
Pinnacle Silver and Gold Corp., provided an update on its El Potrero project in Durango, as its progresses towards a production decision. Key developments include the rehabilitation of historic mine workings and the preparation of drill stations, with a a total of 2,423m of drilling across 107 holes planned.
