Outcrop Silver & Gold (TSXV: OCG; OTCQX: OCGSF) is advancing its Santa Ana project in Colombia, one of the highest-grade primary silver deposits. Speaking with Kitco Mining, CEO Ian Harris outlined scale, metallurgy, and de-risking. Santa Ana’s initial resource totals about 24 million ounces at 614 grams per tonne silver equivalent, plus 13.5 million ounces inferred, based on six veins and around 40,000 meters of drilling. Since then, the company has made six additional discoveries along the 17 km trend and plans about 30,000 meters of drilling this year, with an updated resource targeted for early Q1 2026. “We want to make sure we’re getting close to or break that a hundred million ounce number…if you can break a hundred million, now you’re talking about the production of about eight, seven, maybe 10 million ounces a year”. Harris notes that such a milestone could put Santa Ana among the world’s top silver producers. He also highlighted metallurgy as a key advantage: “It’s not just high grade. It’s high grade, extremely high recovery, and amazing concentrate.” On the investment case, he added: “Our valuation today is based on our resource and independent of silver price… we trade to a beta to silver, and that’s why it’s gotten so explosive.”
