Argenta's acquisition of the El Quevar project in October 2024 for $3.5 million signals the company's confidence in the region's exploration potential. With Mr. Peralta at the helm, Argenta is well-positioned to unlock the full potential of its Argentine assets and continue its growth trajectory in the precious metals mining sector.
