"This is a transformative step for Capitan. By consolidating ownership of this highly prospective corridor, we not only expand our exploration footprint by 85%, but also unlock significant development potential with continuity across the district. This transaction positions the Company strongly for the next phase of growth through further exploration at Cruz de Plata. We're excited to move forward with a more unified and scalable land package."
