Silver Hill Project
Cu – Ag – Co
Location
Southern Morocco, Anti-Atlas Belt
Property size
16km2
Status
Exploration – First drilling completed in 2021/2022
Key Highlights
Located approximately 5 km from Aya Gold & Silver’s Boumadine Mine in Morocco’s premier silver district
Historical drill intercepts including 8 metres at 1.77% copper and 121 g/t silver
13-metre trench grading 2.7% copper, 34.5 g/t silver, and 82 ppm cobalt
Mineralization confirmed at depth and open along strike
Strong structural controls consistent with regional copper-silver systems
Ancient slags grading 2.5% copper distributed across one third of the concession, indicating a long history of surface mineralization
Geology and Mineralization
Silver Hill is situated within the Proterozoic to Palaeozoic sequences of the Anti-Atlas belt, a structurally complex terrane shaped by multiple deformation events. The area is well known for copper and silver mineral occurrences, and the project sits in close geological proximity to some of Morocco’s most significant producing mines.
Mineralization at Silver Hill is primarily associated with quartz-carbonate vein systems and brecciated fault zones hosted within volcanic and sedimentary units. Sulphide mineralization, including copper and silver-bearing phases, occurs within structurally prepared zones exhibiting silica-carbonate alteration. Surface mapping and drilling indicate that mineralization is structurally controlled and vertically continuous.
The presence of historical mine shafts measuring less than 20 metres in depth confirms that ancient workings targeted only the shallowest part of the system. The potential at depth remains largely untested. Geological interpretation suggests that Silver Hill represents part of a larger mineralized corridor, with multiple parallel and cross-cutting structures providing exploration upside.
Discoveries
Initial drill campaigns at Silver Hill tested continuity beneath historical surface workings and evaluated the vertical extent of mapped structures. Results confirmed the presence of copper-silver mineralization at depth and validated the structural model guiding exploration.
