Bob Archer, President and CEO of Pinnacle Silver & Gold, discusses a LiDAR-driven discovery of high-grade silver-lead-zinc at El Potrero. He outlines links to the nearby Topia geology and how the find fits with fast-tracking gold-silver production. He also covers underground drilling plans, metallurgical testing, and infrastructure feasibility steps.

LiDAR Revealed New Polymetallic Veins
Pinnacle used high-resolution LiDAR to detect historical artisanal workings across previously unexplored parts of El Potrero.
Field teams then inspected shafts, adits and pits identified by LiDAR and returned assays showing high-grade silver-lead-zinc over at least a 650 meter strike.

Keep Production Pathway Separate From New Exploration
Continue fast-tracking the gold-silver zone to production while treating the new surface polymetallic discovery as an additional exploration priority.
Finish underground drilling and then pivot some resources to surface drill testing of the new silver-lead-zinc targets in a few months.

New Veins May Be Extension Of Topia System
The new mineralization is polymetallic (silver-lead-zinc) unlike the fast-track gold-silver zone, and resembles surrounding mines including Topia.
Topia lies ~4 km away and similar extensive lateral vein systems suggest the discovery could be its northeastern extension.
