Strikepoint Gold ( (TSE:SKP) ) has issued an announcement.

StrikePoint Gold has launched its initial 2026 drill program at the Hercules Gold Project in Nevada’s Walker Lane, targeting an NI 43-101 Exploration Target of 40.3 to 65.6 million tonnes grading 0.48 to 0.63 g/t gold. The roughly 30-hole, 3,650-metre reverse circulation campaign is designed to deliver data for a maiden resource estimate expected in the third quarter of 2026, with initial results anticipated in April.

Management highlights that Hercules hosts near-surface mineralization amenable to a potential open-pit, heap-leach operation, and the company has recently consolidated the southern Como District, including three past producers, into the project. Historic sampling from the Como area has returned high-grade gold and silver values, and StrikePoint plans to amend its drill permits after this program to incorporate the newly acquired ground, expanding its pipeline of more than 40 undrilled targets and strengthening its district-scale exploration position.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:SKP) stock is a Hold with a C$0.19 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Strikepoint Gold stock, see the TSE:SKP Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on TSE:SKP Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:SKP is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (no revenue, recurring losses, and ongoing negative operating/free cash flow despite being debt-free). Technicals provide the main support with price trending above key moving averages and moderately positive momentum, while valuation remains challenged due to negative earnings and no stated dividend yield.
