Brixton drills more ‘high-grade’ silver at Langis ahead of maiden MRE

Brixton Metals (TSX-V:BBB) has delivered more ‘high-grade’ results from drilling at its Langis Silver Project in Ontario, Canada, as it moves closer to a maiden mineral resource estimate (MRE).

The new results cover 28 holes drilled across several areas of the property, which includes a former mine within the historic Cobalt Mining Camp, 500km north of Toronto. 

At the Shaft 6 South East (S6-SE) area, drilling returned 23.5m at 348 grams per tonne silver from 203m, including a ‘higher-grade’ section of 4m grading 1,975g/t silver.

Drilling in the Shaft 6 West (S6-W) area returned 6.45m at 667g/t silver from 124.65m. This included two ‘higher-grade’ intercepts: 3.19m at 1,339g/t silver and 1m at 3,570g/t silver.

Moreover, drilling in the Shaft 6 East (S6-E) area returned 10.5m at 85.7g/t silver from 192.5m, while drilling in the Shaft 6 (S6) area returned 9m at 222g/t silver from 119m. 

“Drilling at Langis continues to shine, delivering more multi-kilogram silver intercepts,” Chairman and CEO Gary Thompson says.

‘High-density’ strategy

The company is currently undertaking what Thompson calls a ‘high-density’ drilling strategy, targeting 60,000m of surface bedrock drilling across multiple areas to define an MRE for the Langis Project.

That strategy, says Thompson, is “showing results” across several areas as the company seeks to expand the known mineralisation across the project.

Exploration to date has led to an exploration target of 1–2 million tonnes grading 400–800g/t silver for the project, though that remains conceptual in nature, according to the company.

So far in 2026, Brixton’s team has completed approximately 39,937m across 182 drill holes.

Accelerated drilling

To accelerate the drilling, the company has added a third drill rig to target 9,000m per month.

Brixton says the additional rig will allow the company to meet its near-term objective of establishing the maiden MRE.

In parallel, Brixton has also completed a sonic drilling campaign targeting the historic tailings at the Langis property.

Last month, the company reported that all 85 sonic drill holes had returned silver-mineralised tailings material.

Brixton Metals is a Canadian exploration company focused on the advancement of five exploration projects.
