07:29 AM EDT, 09/01/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Aya Gold & Silver (AYA) said Tuesday that it has signed an agreement to acquire a 139-square-kilometer portfolio of exploration permits in Morocco for C$4 million ($2.9 million) in common shares. The deal includes a 19 square-km mining license, which the company said is near Aya's Zgounder Silver Mine. The company said it expects the acquisition to consolidate its land position in the area and provide exposure to a large, underexplored copper-silver system with multiple styles of mineralization and significant exploration potential. Aya also said it plans to conduct exploration work over the next 12 to 18 months to assess the portfolio's potential. Shares of Aya Gold & Silver were down close to 4% pre-bell.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) has raised its forecast for average Brent crude oil prices in 2026 and 2027 to $97 and $86, respectively, reflecting pressures from global inventory declines, Middle East supply disruptions, and rising transportation costs. As oil production in the Middle East gradually recovers and global inventories rebound from low levels, the EIA expects the average spot price of Brent crude to fall to $87 per barrel in the second quarter of 2027, and further decline to $77 per barrel by the fourth quarter.
