Sun Silver Hits 84.5% Silver Recovery in 24 Hours at Maverick

Perth – October 14, 2026 -- Sun Silver Limited (ASX: SS1; OTCQX: SSLVF) recovered 84.5% of silver and 83.6% of gold within 24 hours in cyanide leach testwork on its Maverick Silver Project in Nevada, strengthening the case for a tank-leach/CIL processing route alongside heap leach.

Sample 1 test delivers peak recoveries within 48 hours

The top result came from Sample 1 (LT15), run at a P80 53μm grind with 5,000 ppm initial and 2,500 ppm maintained sodium cyanide and no lead nitrate. Head assay recoveries were 84.5% for silver and 83.6% for gold, with peak recoveries indicated between 0 and 48 hours. Most recoverable metal in the test was extracted in the first 24 hours.

Interim solution assays for Sample 1 pointed to higher extraction at 24 and 48 hours than the reported figures, which are calculated from final head assay grades. The company notes that interim extractions are indicative point-in-time calculations, not final recoveries.

Cyphlens Ships Encryption That Hides Contract Terms From AI

New York – October 14, 2026 -- Cyphlens has made in-document encryption generally available, letting AI tools read a contract while the confidential terms inside it stay unreadable. The company was also named a 2026 Gartner Cool Vendor in the "Coolest Vendor Innovations in Data Security" report.

Cyphlens replaces selected document regions with ciphertext in place

In one example, AI reviewing a customer agreement can find the renewal deadline but sees a cipher where the negotiated price would be. Only an authorized person can reveal the protected information.

The file remains an ordinary Word or PDF, with no encrypted container. Each protected region carries its own recipients, so one document can disclose different content to different readers. The capability is applied through a Cyphlens skill for Claude.

Bind AI Launches Publicly With $10M to Automate Quote-to-Bind

Bind AI Launches Publicly With $10M to Automate Quote-to-Bind

New York – October 14, 2026 -- Bind AI has launched publicly as an AI workforce for insurance, backed by $10 million in venture funding from Bonfire Ventures and other VCs. The company says it is already live with hundreds of insurance agencies and touching billions of dollars in commercial premium.

Bind AI automates submission intake, quoting, proposals and binding

The platform handles the full workflow from quote to bind on brokers' behalf. Bind AI says this saves agencies hundreds of hours per month.

The pitch rests on a time imbalance. Agents and brokers sell roughly 90% of business insurance in the United States, yet spend only about 10% of their time with clients. The rest goes to rekeying submissions, chasing carriers for quotes, assembling proposals and processing binds.
