Argenta Silver Intersects 4,982 g/t Ag over 7.5m including 6,859 g/t Ag over 4.5m at Emerging Target; Step-Out Drilling Expands Resource Footprint by 270m; Gold and Copper Discovery Drill-Confirmed

About this update from Argenta Silver Corp

TSX-V: AGAG VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 23, 2026 /CNW/ - Argenta Silver Corp. (TSXV: AGAG) (OTCQX: AGAGF) (FSE: T1K) ("Argenta" or the "Company") is pleased to report the second set of assay results from its ongoing 2025–2026 Summer Exploration Program at the 100% owned El Quevar Project ("El Quevar") in Salta Province, Argentina. These latest results confirm multiple high-grade silver intervals beyond the Yaxtché Deposit ("Yaxtché"), demonstrating mineralized continuity over a 100-meter northwest extension (step-out holes QVD-426 and QVD-428) and a 170-meter southeast extension (including step-out hole QVD-432 and others) (Figure 1, Figure 2, Table 1, and Table 2). Notably, additional high-grade drill and surface sample results continue to emerge from the Mani-Copan target, located approximately 500 meters south of Yaxtché (QVD-433 and others). Furthermore, the Company has confirmed the gold-copper mineralized zone in a follow-up drill hole at the Carmen target. Highlights: Resource Expansion at the Yaxtché Deposit: Mani-Copan Target (~500 meters south of Yaxtché): New Discoveries & Target Validation: Additionally, the Company has encountered silver anomalies in other holes including QVD-429, and is awaiting results for hole QVD-430, which are delayed due to laboratory backlogs. Joaquin Marias, President and CEO commented, "The latest step-outs are very encouraging and extend the footprint of the main deposit [Yaxtché] by 170 m to the southeast and 100 m to the northwest with high-grade continuity, reinforcing that the deposit remains open in multiple directions. In parallel, drilling results from Carmen confirm an open Au-Cu zone and Mani-Copan continues to deliver very high-grade silver, validating our broader mineralization model for El Quevar project. With two rigs active and assays still pending, we remain focused on disciplined resource growth and high-impact discovery."
