Blackrock Silver Launches Major Expansion Drilling at Tonopah West in Nevada

Blackrock Silver ( (TSE:BRC) ) has shared an update.

Blackrock Silver has mobilized drill rigs for a fully funded, 17,100 metre, two-phased resource expansion program at its Tonopah West silver-gold project in Nevada, aimed at extending known mineralization and testing new structures. The company will use a capital-efficient RC/Core hybrid drilling method across 30 sites, reflecting a focus on maximizing meterage while preserving detailed geological data to support ongoing resource growth.

The Eastern Expansion program will follow up on 2025 successes by targeting shallow, high-grade, thick zones of silver and gold along the Pittsburg-Monarch fault and its footwall splays, historically recognized as key ore controls in the district. In parallel, the Northwest Expansion program will test along strike and down dip extensions of the Denver and Paymaster veins, including an 800 metre step-out based on new seismic data that could confirm Tonopah West as a large, open system, while the near-complete hydrology program underpins permitting for an exploration decline, test mining, and bulk sampling planned for 2027.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:BRC) stock is a Buy with a C$1.90 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Blackrock Silver stock, see the TSE:BRC Stock Forecast page.
