Collective Mining (TSX:CNL) moved into focus after reporting assay results from seventeen diamond drill holes in the Shallow Halo Zone of the Apollo Deposit at its Guayabales Project in Colombia.

At around CA$16.08 per share, Collective Mining’s 1-day share price return of 1.20% came after a period where the stock fell 11.31% over 30 days and declined 16.16% year to date.

Most Popular Narrative: 51% Undervalued

Based on the most followed narrative, Collective Mining’s fair value of CA$32.80 sits well above the last close at CA$16.08. This puts the recent pullback in a very different light once you focus on the long dated project story at Guayabales.

Progress on drilling across the broader Guayabales district, including Trap, Apollo’s Ramp Zone and Plutus from surface and planned underground drilling following construction of the exploration adit, could add new mineralized zones that influence long term revenue potential across multiple deposits.

Ongoing expansion of Collective Mining’s titled land position around Guayabales, following new mining titles granted in 2026, may support additional discoveries and project configurations that affect future revenue scale and capital allocation decisions.
