Arizona Gold & Silver reports high-grade Antimony, receives drill approval at Silverton

Arizona Gold and Silver Vice President of Exploration Greg Hahn joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news of high-grade antimony results from the company’s Silverton gold-antimony project in Nye County, Nevada. The project is located immediately north of US Highway 6, between Tonopah and Ely, and hosts two distinct target types — a Carlin-style large-tonnage gold system and high-grade antimony-gold-silver veins exposed at surface. Hahn explained that Arizona Gold & Silver is shifting exploration focus toward antimony, given the metal’s status as a U.S.-designated critical mineral currently trading around US$57.50 per pound. Recent sampling across stibnite-quartz veins and surrounding rock returned antimony grades as high as 7.95% from a 25.4-centimeter-wide vein, averaging 1.38% across 14 samples, including non-vein material. Historical data collected primarily by Newcrest Resources (2002–2004) further underscore the project’s potential, with more than 25 surface samples exceeding 1% antimony, often accompanied by anomalous gold and silver values. Sample preparation and analysis for the latest program were conducted by ALS Global Labs in Tucson, Vancouver, and Loughrea, Ireland. In a significant operational update, the company also announced that it has secured approval from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management for a 27-hole reverse circulation drilling program from 17 permitted drill pads, paving the way for immediate road and pad construction. Hahn emphasized that the combination of strong surface results, historical data, and regulatory progress positions the Silverton project for meaningful near-term advancement. #proactiveinvestors #arizonagoldandsilverinc #tsxv #azs #otcqb #azasf #GoldExploration #PhiladelphiaProject #MiningNews #JuniorMining #HeapLeach #Metallurgy #ResourceInvesting #GoldStocks #PreciousMetals #MiningNews #GoldExploration #SilverMining #JuniorMining #ArizonaMining #GoldInvesting #DrillResults #MiningInfrastructure #ProactiveInvestors #perryzone #risingfawnzone #Antimony #CriticalMinerals #ArizonaGoldAndSilver #MiningNews #SilvertonProject #GoldExploration #JointVentureOpportunity #NevadaMining #DrillPermit
