Epithermal mineralization represents the upper part of hydrothermal systems. At Pampa Paciencia, gold and silver mineralization in quartz veins returned grades of 93.3 g/t Au and 301 g/t Ag in surface rock chip samples, and 7.71 g/t Au over 3.75 m in drill results. The Pampa Paciencia project lies within the Paleocene Mineral belt in Northern Chile. The belt hosts a wide range of intrusion-related mineral deposits. They include giant copper/molybdenum porphyry deposits like Spence and Sierra Gorda, as well as low sulphidation epithermal gold-silver deposits like Faride and Yamana’s world-class El Peñón. Mineralization is wide open over several kilometers. Four historic drill holes in the Paciencia North Vein hit significant gold values. However, veins in the Central and South Zones were not drilled. Additional known veins have yet to be mapped and sampled, adding potential for additional discovery and size development. Cerro Bayo Project: Key Highlights: Large underexplored 8×6 km property in the Maricunga – 100% owned by Astra Limited drilling in 1990 (8 holes, 1660m) into a very discrete zone 120 km east of Copiapo – nearby infrastructure and skilled labor Oxide mineralization – favorable metallurgy for gold recovery and lower costs La Manchuria Project: Key Highlights: La Manchuria is a low sulphidation epithermal gold and silver deposit with spectacular high-grade fertility and is open in all directions. Astra’s inaugural drill program expanded the deposit in every dimension, and produced up to 199.3g/t gold (LM-107A) and 8,356g/t silver (LM-108A – see June 10 & 25, 2025 news releases) near surface. Historical drilling has been shallow (less than ~170m depth) and has focused on a very small area of the project. There are multiple underexplored regional targets which indicate the potential for a large-scale high grade gold-silver district. La Manchuria is located in the Deseado Massif of southern Argentina, which is the most prolific epithermal gold-silver region known in the world. Santa Cruz is a mining-friendly province, and host to several operating mines, including the world class Cerro Negro (Newmont) and Cerro Vanguardia (AngloGold-Ashanti) mines. Infrastructure is abundant, and elevations average ~700m, providing for road-access and the ability to explore year-round. The exceptional grades in past drilling have defined several trends of classic epithermal bonanza veins. The resource completed by previous operators focused on an open pit that diluted the high grade veins and didn’t demonstrate the true potential of the project. Astra aims to better define the continuity of the high grade veins based on a new geologic model, that if correct will establish better continuity of mineralization while extending it into previously untested areas. _Verified data last updated: 2025-10-31_ ## Recent filings - 2026-05-06 — press_release — [ASTRA EXPLORATION INC.
