Corporate Objectives
The Gryphon Project: Fall Drill Campaign 2024
- Reyna Silver’s current focus for the Fall of 2024 is on the Gryphon Project near Carlin, Nevada. Drilling commenced on September 5, 2024.
- Previously, the project's focus was the Carlin-type gold mineralization; however, the project also contains a strong Ag-Pb-Zn-Cu signature of a significant Carbonate Replacement Deposit system.
- Reyna Silver’s targets this fall aim to illuminate the potential of the whole mineralized system. Silver, Gold + Critical metals, too.
Medicine Springs/ Batopilas / Guigui Projects
- Reyna Silver is committed to advancing exploration efforts at all of the other projects.
- Reyna Silver will on further consolidation and exploration of the Santa Eulalia district at the Batopilas Project.

AI and Reyna Silver
Reyna Silver has partnered with ExploreTech, a technology company who offers prepared solutions for the mining industry, and builds custom software as needed. Their company objective is to find and extract more metal, faster using artificial intelligence. ExploreTech has focused on the Guigui project and their algorithms have helped to highlight a strong, multi-layered magnetic anomaly, reinforce Reyna’s existing geological thinking that the intrusive source for the district lies in that area and greatly enhance the area's potential.
ExploreTech's platform first uses AI to identify and locate where a geophysical anomaly actually is and then design the optimum hole geometry to hit it. The first step searches a geophysical survey dataset and calculates thousands of possible explanations for anomalies measured at the surface. For CRDs, the search focuses on solutions most likely to be caused by a source intrusion. This process generates thousands of candidate models that the program then evaluates in 3 dimensions to determine the optimal drilling trajectory to pierce as many of these potential intrusion-related anomalies as possible (See Figure 1).
ExploreTech's use of AI to reveal and reinforce target anomalies in existing geophysical datasets appears to be a significant new exploration tool and Reyna intends to apply it to the extensive existing datasets for its Gryphon Summit and Medicine Springs CRD projects in Nevada.
Please see the Press Release from Jan 22, 2024 to learn more about how Reyna Silver is optimizing exploration efforts with the use of ExploreTech’s Artificial Intelligence program.
