Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 11, 2026) - Capitan Silver Corp. (TSXV: CAPT) ("Capitan" or "the Company") is pleased to report that a third drill rig has arrived on site and has commenced drilling at the Company's Cruz de Plata silver-gold project in Durango, Mexico. The newly arrived core rig joins a reverse circulation (" RC ") rig and core rig that are already drilling on the property.
Capitan has commenced an aggressive 60,000-metre drilling campaign at its Cruz de Plata project for 2026, which represents the largest drill program in the Company's history and four times (4x) the size of the Company's 2025 drill program. The new core rig is the second of three (3) core rigs that are planned to arrive at the property. This core rig will be targeting high-grade silver mineralization on the western end of the Jesus Maria Silver Trend, including the Gully Fault Zone, central portions of the Jesus Maria vein, and beneath portions of Capitan Hill, and will focus on extending the mineralized envelope deeper, while providing more information about mineralization intersected in previously reported drill holes 21-JMRC-01, 21-JMRC-10, and JM-DDH-13-06 (see Figure 1, Target C).
