One is a long-life, low-grade engine; the other is a smaller, richer prize. Salazar Resources Limited (TSXV: SRL) (OTCQB: SRLZF) (FSE: CCG) has just reported results suggesting it may have both on a single, wholly owned concession in one of the world's most prolific copper-gold belts. On June 1, 2026, Salazar reported rock-chip sampling of up to 100 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 1,000 g/t silver from the Yumi vein system at its 100%-owned Tarqui Concession in southeastern Ecuador — high-grade precious-metals results sitting right alongside a large, district-scale copper-molybdenum porphyry that was previously drilled under an earn-in by mining giant BHP. It is the kind of combination that gives a junior two distinct ways to win on one piece of ground.The high-grade headline: YumiThe numbers that grab attention come from the Yumi gold-silver epithermal vein system, where Salazar's own recent rock-chip sampling returned exceptional grades. One sample assayed 80.9 g/t gold and 824 g/t silver; a second came back at greater than 100 g/t gold and greater than 1,000 g/t silver, with over-limit analysis still pending — meaning the true values could be even higher once the lab re-runs them at a wider range. Beyond those two standouts, 13 additional samples returned between 1.0 and 17.9 g/t gold across a vein system roughly 100 metres in length.Two caveats matter and Salazar discloses them plainly. First, these are rock-chip and grab samples taken at surface, which are selective by nature and are not necessarily representative of the grade of any mineralization at depth — they point to potential, not to a resource....
