[{"type":"text","content":"Decade Discusses Silver Potential of the Del Norte PropertyStewart, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 6, 2026) - Decade Resources Ltd (TSXV: DEC) (\"Decade\" or the Company) discusses the silver potential of the Del Norte property optioned in January of 2020 from Teuton Resources Corp. with terms allowing the Company to earn up to a 55% interest in the property by spending $4 million over a five year period. The Company can an earn an additional 20% interest by carrying the property to commercial production. Decade has earned the 55% interest in the property. It is situated within BC's \"Golden Triangle\", 34 kilometres east of Stewart, BC. The property covers the contact of felsic volcanic rocks of the Hazelton Group and sedimentary rocks of Salmon River Formation. This is the same horizon that hosts the Eskay Creek mine 60km north of Stewart, BC.A deformation corridor along this contact, is composed of argillites and lapilli tuffs, brecciated and sheared with quartz-carbonate-sulphide cemented breccias, replacement zones and veins. Breccia fragments, composed mostly of argillite are very angular ranging in size from less than 1 cm to 10 cm across. Mineralized zones host sulphides including pyrite, sphalerite, galena and tetrahedrite mineralization along with sections mineralized by fine acicular arsenopyrite. Mineralization is located within a pyrite-rich, graphitic black mudstone horizon within black matrix lapilli tuffs with sub-intervals of dacite lapilli tuffs. The mudstone horizon contains small rounded fragments of pyrite as well as fine stringers of sphalerite. Fracturing and faulting within this unit has resulted in the deposition of quartz and sulphides. The faulting has resulted in black graphitic gouge, crushed sulphides and quartz fragments. Within this deformation corridor related to thrust faulting, there are at least 3 distinct silver-gold rich veins and breccias; these are the Kosciuszko (K-zone), Argo/ LG and Eagles Nest zones. Widths on these veins and breccia can be up to 10-12 m over lengths exceeding 1.2 km. Zones appear to occur along a number of splays associated with the thrust faulting along the volcanic-sedimentary contact.
