Argyll Metals


GOLD & METAL EXPLORATION IN SCOTLAND

Argyll Metals Limited is a UK-based exploration and development company established in 2022. The company
was founded in response to a growing opportunity to develop both gold and critical metal projects within the UK. The founders and Board recognise that the increasing drive for national self-sufficiency in raw materials necessitates a revival of the UK’s mining industry—particularly in the critical metals sector, where demand is projected to grow significantly. With this vision, they set their sights on the historically rich resources of Argyll.

Knapdale Project Highlights

Substantial historical work programs have been undertaken on the Knapdale Project. Previous field work, geochemistry and geophysical surveys identified multiple gold and base metals targets. Subsequent drilling programs have intersected several quartz veins containing high-grade and antimony along with Cu-Pb-Zn sulphides.

Mapping and shallow diamond drilling programs in 2017 and 2021 resulted in the discovery of high-grade orogenic gold veins with an interpreted strike length of c.4km close to the historic Stronchullin gold mine.

 

Numerous high-grade intersections include:

  • 41.8 g/t Au + 262g/t Ag + 0.26% Sb over 0.55m
  • 13.3 g/t Au + 32 g/t Ag + 0.14% Sb over 1.05m
  • 19.2 g/t Au + 1.2 g/t Ag over 1.0m from 88.2m
  • 12.2 g/t Au + 20 g/t Ag over 1.0m from 56.9m
  • 5.0 g/t Au + 2.8 g/t Ag over 3.6m from 41.8m

Significant Upside Potential

✅ The highest ranked geochemical gold and base metal anomalies remain untested

✅ Numerous gold hits from drilling with high-grade gold values up to 41.8 g/t Au

✅ Average intersection encountered to date is 1.2m with at 8.1 g/t Au and 17 g/t Ag (applying a 2.0g/t Au cut-off)

✅ Knapdale exhibits certain geological analogies with the >6.0Moz Curraghinalt orogenic gold deposit in Northern Ireland, highlighting significant upside

✅ High grades of stibnite (Antimony) identified in drilling (0.26%) and rock chip sampling (>1.0%)

✅ Antimony recognised by UK Department of Industry as a critical mineral

Since its inception, Argyll Metals has built strong relationships with supportive landowners, successfully navigating many of the early challenges typically faced by greenfield projects. The company has completed two funding rounds, which have supported initial exploration efforts, including the first-ever drilling program at Loch Fyne. Future exploration programs are planned to further define resources and reduce investment risk across each project.
