/CNW/ - Argenta Silver Corp. (TSXV: AGAG) (formerly Butte
Energy Inc.) ("Argenta" or the "Company") is pleased
to announce successful initial discussions with both indigenous
community leaders and government officials in Salta Province, Argentina.
Joaquin Marias, Argenta's Vice President of
Exploration and Development, met with the Chief of the Kolla
Community in Pocitos , located just 4 kilometers from the El Quevar
Project. The community has a long-standing connection with El
Quevar and welcomes the return of exploration under Argenta's
leadership. The meeting was constructive, with both parties
agreeing to respect each other's needs and commit to open
communication as exploration advances.
In Salta's capital, Mr. Marias also introduced
Argenta to key government officials, including Minister of
Production, Mr. Martin de Los Rios,
and Secretary of Mines and Energy, Mrs. Romina Sassarini. Both officials expressed
strong support for Argenta's plans and the benefits the project
will bring to Salta's communities.
"Building a Social License in Latin America is essential," said Mr. Marias.
"Our positive reception by the Pocitos Kolla community and
government leaders is an important step forward for Argenta Silver and the El Quevar Project."
Argenta remains committed to strengthening
relationships with local communities, ensuring benefits for the
people of Salta, and advancing the project responsibly.
