  • NGEx Minerals Shares Surge 12.7% on Lunahuasi Drilling Results and Adit Approval
    May 13, 2026, 8:06 PM EDT. NGEx Minerals (TSX:NGEX) shares rose 12.7% after announcing completion of its Phase 4 drilling program at the Lunahuasi copper-gold-silver project in Argentina, featuring high-grade intersections. The company also secured environmental approval for an underground exploration adit, expanding future drilling and sampling options. These developments support the investment narrative that hinges on assay results shaping the potential scale of deposits at Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, and new zones. Despite the positive news, investor caution remains due to ongoing losses, funding needs, and risks that drill results may not translate into an economic mine. Shares remain volatile with a wide valuation range among analysts, reflecting differing views on exploration success and project risk.
