Blackrock Silver (BRC) has commenced a maiden drill campaign on its Tonopah North Project.
The Tonopah North Project covers 20 square kilometres along the prolific Walker Lane trend of Western Nevada.
The fully permitted and funded inaugural drill program will consist of 9,000 metres in twelve reverse circulation (RC) drillholes. The program will test two silver-gold concepts associated with the mapped margin of the Tonopah Caldera and the projection of major northwest structures, and the lithium potential within the middle and lower portions of the Siebert Formation.
Highlights:
- A total of 9,000 metres of drilling planned in twelve RC drillholes
- Multiple high-priority silver-gold targets identified
- District-scale potential
- Lithium potential identified
Andrew Pollard, Blackrock’s President and CEO, commented on the program’s potential.
“2022 is poised to be a pivotal year for the company, as we focus on the simultaneous expansion and de-risking of our Tonopah West Project (maiden resource expected during Q1) while we continue our search for new discoveries in the shadows of where historic miners left off nearly a century ago. With over 110,000 metres of drilling under our belt on the Tonopah silver district, which has sharpened our understanding of the key structural controls that shape this prolific silver-gold system and benefitting from technology that wasn’t available to the old-timers, we’ve delineated multiple new targets with district-scale potential and are excited to finally test them with the drill-bit.” Blackrock Silver is a junior mining company focused on precious metal exploration in Nevada.
