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

StrikePoint Gold has launched its initial 2026 drill program at the Hercules Gold Project in Nevada’s Walker Lane, targeting 30 reverse circulation holes over roughly 3,650 meters to underpin a maiden resource estimate expected in the third quarter of 2026. The campaign is designed around a sizable NI 43-101 exploration target at Hercules and is supported by a strong geological model, with initial results anticipated in April.

The company has recently consolidated the southern portion of the property, gaining control of the past-producing Como District through the acquisition of 51 unpatented claims, where historic surface sampling has yielded high-grade gold and silver values. Following the current drill phase, StrikePoint plans to amend its permits to include the Como area, positioning the Hercules project for expanded exploration across more than 40 undrilled targets and potentially enhancing its long-term resource growth profile.

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.
