Silver North keeps two rigs busy in the Yukon

Silver North Resources (TSX-V:SNAG) has both rigs turning at its flagship Haldane Silver Project in the Yukon, Canada, with one expanding the Main Fault target and the other testing Bighorn for the first time since 2019. 

President and CEO Jason Weber joins us live from site to unpack what is shaping up to be a very busy field season.

  • Main Fault: Most drilling is focused on stepping out the ‘high-grade’ silver system
  • Big benchmark: Previous drilling returned 13.15m at 818 grams per tonne silver
  • Bighorn: Fresh holes are testing a target last drilled in 2019
  • Assays: First results are expected from September
  • Veronica Project: Fieldwork is building the dataset across an emerging silver district 

Two rigs. Multiple targets. One Yukon summer to make them count.

Winter waits for no drill rig.

About the guest and company:
Jason Weber is the president and CEO of Silver North Resources, a Canadian silver explorer focused on the Yukon. The company’s flagship Haldane Silver Project sits in the historic Keno Hill Silver District, while the Tim and Veronica projects give it additional exposure to the emerging Silvertip silver district. 

🎥 Watch the full interview to see how Silver North is balancing resource-scale drilling with the hunt for its next discovery.
