Barton Gold Extends Tolmer Silver Discovery – Numerous High-Grade Assays 

Multiple new >2,000g-m Ag assays; metallurgical testwork to begin

Barton Gold Holdings Limited (ASX:BGD, OTC:BGDFF, FRA:BGD3) (Barton or Company) is pleased to announce further shallow, broad and high-grade assays at its South Australian Tolmer Silver discovery (Tolmer).

Tolmer is located at its Tarcoola Gold Project (Tarcoola), where during 2025 Barton announced one of Australia’s highest-grade modern silver discoveries with an intersection of 6m @ 4,747 g/t Ag from only 46m depth.

These assays have further infilled Tolmer’s shallow, high-grade ‘western silver zone’ mineralisation and extended it to over 500m strike, also yielding broad high-grade intersections in the ‘eastern gold zone’.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Recent 3,677m drilling program targeted infill and extension of high-grade Tolmer silver discovery, after preliminary testwork yielded a high-grade concentrate grading over 100,000 g/t Ag (10% silver)
• New high-grade assays infill Tolmer’s ‘western silver zone’ and extend its strike to over 500m, while also adding broad, high-grade intersections to the ‘eastern gold zone’. These include:
Hole ID Interval Including:
TBM0258 10m @ 399 g/t Ag & 0.55 g/t Au from 56m 4m @ 954 g/t Ag & 1.23 g/t Au from 56m TBM0259 16m @ 120 g/t Ag from 5m, and
16m @ 493 g/t Ag & 0.66 g/t Au from 50m
5m @ 282 g/t Ag from 5m

Commenting on the Tolmer drilling results, Barton MD Alexander Scanlon said:

“Our South Australian Tolmer silver discovery continues to yield broad, high-grade silver assays across an expanding footprint.

 

“With a shallow profile and having produced trial concentrates grading over 100,000 g/t Ag, Tolmer is already hinting at real potential for a low-cost, high-margin operation.

 

“We will share our further analysis in due course.

 

“We are also planning to update our 3.1 million ounce Tunkillia silver Resource, where 58,000m drilling was recently completed to support JORC upgrades, a Pre-Feasibility study, a Mining Lease application and financing discussions.

 

“Barton’s Tolmer and Tunkillia silver assets are emerging as potentially significant contributors to our South Australian precious metals strategy, whether developed as a complement to our regional gold holdings or on a standalone basis.”

Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSX.V: LG)

Announced an updated Mineral Resource Estimate  for its flagship Santa Fe Mine, a past-producing open pit, heap leach, gold and silver mine, located in Nevada’s prolific Walker Lane.

The MRE for Santa Fe is based upon 1,275 drill holes totaling 136,515 metres, including 103 drill holes totaling 23,805 metres drilled by Lahontan from 2021 through
May 2026.

LAHONTAN ANNOUNCES 22% INCREASE IN MINERAL RESOURCES AT SANTA
FE: 1,195,000 Au Eq oz INDICATED, and 1,190,000 Au Eq oz INFERRED

Toronto Ontario, August 17, 2026 – Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSXV:LG, OTCQB:LGCXF, FSE:Y2F) (the “Company” or “Lahontan”) is pleased to announce an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) for its flagship Santa Fe Mine (“Santa Fe”), a past-producing open pit, heap leach, gold and silver mine, located in Nevada’s prolific Walker Lane.

The MRE for Santa Fe is based upon 1,275 drill holes totaling 136,515 metres, including 103 drill holes totaling 23,805 metres drilled by Lahontan from 2021 through
May 2026.

Highlights of the MRE include:

• Project-wide pit constrained resources increase significantly: Indicated Mineral Resources of 1,195,000 contained gold equivalent (“Au Eq”) ounces and Inferred Mineral Resources of 1,190,000 contained Au Eq ounces, a total increase of 435,000 ounces or 22% over the 2024 MRE (assumptions for Au Eq are described in the Notes to Table One).
• Project-wide average grade for the Indicated Mineral Resource is 0.78 g/t Au Eq; the average grade of the Project-wide Inferred Mineral Resource is 0.61 g/t Au Eq (please see Table One).
• Shallow Slab and York oxide resources expand dramatically: Indicated oxide Resources for the two deposits total 12.09 Mt grading 0.33 g/t Au Eq for 128,000 Au Eq ounces and Inferred oxide Resources total 8.34 Mt grading 0.36 g/t Au Eq for 96,000 Au Eq ounces, an increase of over 37% compared to the resources reported in the 2024 MRE.
• Santa Fe Deposit resources increase by over 26%: Indicated Mineral Resources of 31.15 Mt grading 0.99 g/t Au Eq totaling 993,000 Au Eq ounces and Inferred Mineral Resources of 41.60 Mt grading 0.71 g/t Au Eq totaling 954,000 Au Eq ounces.
• The MRE block model shows that gold and silver mineralization extends well beyond the conceptual pit shells, generating high-quality targets for additional drilling and resource growth, including the increasingly important deep sulfide mineralization at Santa Fe, and throughout the Slab-Calvada-York resource area.

.
Kimberly Ann, Founder, Executive Chair, CEO, and President of Lahontan Gold Corp commented:

“Lahontan is excited by the results of this updated MRE for the Santa Fe Mine, particularly the large growth in total resource ounces and the continued expansion of the shallow Slab and York oxide gold and silver deposits.

 

“The MRE will form the basis of an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) of the Santa Fe Mine. The PEA will examine mining and process options utilizing low-cost open-pit mining and heap leach processing and very importantly, analyze the mining and processing of Santa Fe’s substantial sulfide resources as a Second Phase in future mine operations.

 

“Our technical consultants, Kappes, Cassiday and Associates (“KCA”) and RESPEC Company LLC (“RESPEC”), both based in Reno, Nevada, are well advanced at project planning, mine design, finalizing the process flow sheet, and optimizing crushing
throughput.

 

“The Company will use the Phase One oxide conventional leach mine plan to complete its State level mine permitting process and the Company’s Mine Plan of Operation (“MPOO”) with the Federal Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”).

 

“With the release of the updated MRE and the soon to be completed PEA, Lahontan continues its transition from mine developer to mine operator, targeting 2027 for mine
construction at Santa Fe.”

AVINO ANNOUNCES Q2 2026 PRODUCTION RESULTS
 

.

Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (ASM: TSX/NYSE American, GV6: FSE) a long-standing silver producer in Mexico, reports second quarter 2026 production results of 267,305 silver ounces (“oz”), 2,178 gold oz and 729,929 pounds of copper (“lbs”), for a total of 534,945 silver equivalent¹ (“AgEq¹”) oz.

 David Wolfin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Avino Silver said,

“The second quarter of 2026 represented a meaningful increase in contribution from La Preciosa with a 59% increase in silver production, as we continue to move the project forward.

 

“Mill performance remained solid during the quarter, with tonnes milled exceeding expectations and contributions from La Preciosa development ore continued to increase throughout the quarter.

 

“We will continue to optimize performance across our operations to advance our transformational growth plans.

 

“As noted previously and as La Preciosa advances, we expect that total 2026 production will be more heavily weighted to the second half of 2026.”

.

PRODUCTION HIGHLIGHTS – Q2 2026

• Steady Progress at La Preciosa:  Ongoing extraction, haulage, and processing of mineralized development material from La Preciosa was above plan in Q2 2026, primarily due to Mill Circuit 2 becoming available. This increased throughput was offset by intentional processing of lower-grade development ore during elevated metal prices, that would have otherwise been stockpiled. 
• Increased La Preciosa Development Production: Avino produced 534,945 silver equivalent¹ ounces in Q2 2026, a decrease from Q2 2025, and was a result of lower copper production. The decrease reflects planned mining sequencing into lower copper grade areas near the historical open pit operations at Avino. At La Preciosa, development production increased 59% from Q1 2026, contributing 100,658 AgEq¹ ounces, and consisting of 84,806 silver oz and 182 gold oz.
• Consistent Mill Throughput: In Q2 2026, mill throughput remained on plan with 184,293 tonnes processed from both Avino and La Preciosa. Continued steady mill performance and availability reflects the impact of targeted upgrades and automation initiatives led by our operations and maintenance teams over recent years.

Toronto, Ontario – May 14, 2026 – Mogotes Metals Inc. (TSXV: MOG, FSE: OY4, OTCQB: MOGMF) (“Mogotes”, or the “Company”) is pleased to announce partial laboratory assay results from diamond drillhole FS_DDH_016 at the Company’s flagship Filo Sur project in Argentina, immediately along strike from BHP and Lundin Mining’s Filo del Sol copper-gold-silver discovery^¹.

Assays received for the first 194 m within the 464 m deep hole confirm a continuous zone starting from 108 m depth of near surface, high-grade copper-gold-silver-molybdenum mineralization within chalcopyrite – bornite – covellite bearing breccias, stockwork and dissemination within the altered porphyry matrix.  

Mogotes geologists have noted strong parallels with the characteristics of mineralization in hole FS_DDH_016 and those reported from the nearby Filo del Sol deposit².

.

Highlights

·      86 m at 0.7% Cu, 0.55 g/t Au, 2.7 g/t Ag & 169 ppm Mo from 108 m to 194 m down hole to end of assays received to date.

o  Including 43 m at 1.1% Cu, 0.82 g/t Au, 4.0 g/t Ag & 281 ppm Mo from 111 m

o  Reported interval ends in mineralization

o  Assays for the remaining 270 m of the hole are pending.

 

·     Shallow high-grade copper, gold, silver and molybdenum mineralization: mineralization starts at 108 m down hole, and trenching results along strike at surface indicate that mineralization projects to surface beneath a thin scree cover that may also be concealing a larger mineralized target.

·    Generally low levels of arsenic for the Vicuña district: Arsenic levels are typically low (median for this interval is 2 ppm As) within this mineralized interval with only specific narrow structures with elevated arsenic indicating the local presence of the copper-bearing epithermal mineral enargite.

·      Larger mineral system at play:The newly identified “Albor” target is part of a 3.5 km long Mogotes (Meseta – Luz del Sol – Cumbre – Albor) Miocene age target trend aligned within the regional scale, transorogen, Macho Muerto Fault Zone. Observed multistage alteration and mineralization features in the drill core suggest association with a larger Cu-Au-Ag-Mo mineral system.

·       “Albor” is thesecond copper-gold-silver-molybdenum discoveryby Mogotes in its inaugural drilling season at Filo Sur (see Cruz del Sur press release) and is part of the large Luz del Sol target trend where drill results are pending for a number of holes drilled in the 2025-2026 exploration season.

.

.

 

 

 

 

.

CEO Comment

Allen Sabet, President and CEO of Mogotes, commented:

“In our first fully funded drill season at Filo Sur we have now made two significant copper-gold-silver-molybdenum discoveries at Cruz del Sur and at the Albor target, where we have just scratched the surface of something we believe will be significant.

.

This partial assay release from Albor is a first hole into a shallow and high-grade copper-gold-silver-molybdenum system, strategically located adjacent to the large Vicuña district deposits, where BHP and Lundin Mining are developing the Josemaria copper-gold porphyry and evaluating development options for the very large Filo del Sol deposit.

.

As this style of mineralization has implications for the broader Vicuña district, we felt it prudent to release partial results for FS_DDH_016 as received.

.

We continue to be humbled by the geological endowment of this very special part of the world and are grateful for the continued support of our patient shareholders. Stay tuned for more!”

Mining Review 22nd March 2026

An absolutely horrendous week for investors in the mining space, with the price of gold falling a whopping 11% in a week, and silver down 16%.

Mining companies’ shares were clobbered on the market, despite some releasing excellent results, the market was unforgiving and merciless.

Swiss Mining Conference Day 2

The second and last day of the conference was overshadowed by the news that gold had dropped sharply overnight, and silver was down 10%. Not the greatest news to greet a room full of mostly gold and silver mining companies.

I focused on new companies today and had a couple of nice surprises amongst my eight meetings.

.

Swiss Mining Conference Day 2

The second and last day of the conference was overshadowed by the news that gold had dropped sharply overnight, and silver was down 10%. Not the greatest news to greet a room full of mostly gold and silver companies.

I focused on new companies today and had a couple of nice surprises amongst my eight meetings.

I met Awale Resources first, an exploration company in the Ivory Coast, with a free carry from Newmont on the xurrent exploration campaign. All is going well but the resources may not be large enough to interest Newmont beyond the exploration phase, and Awale may well regain 100% control of the project in due course.

I had a first meeting with Erdene Resource Development, a producing gold miner based in Mongolia, with a string of copper – gold – moly projects in a prolific area. The idea is to use the revenues from gold production to fund the exploration of the larger copper moly projects, just the sort of story I like.

Aftermath Silver are a company I have followed for a while but they are too far from production for me to have an immediate interest.

Aftermath are a silver – copper- manganese story, and a PFS is due Q1 2027. Manganese is a critical metals as defined by the USA, so should gain the company some traction when further along the line to development and production.

My next meeting was a nice surprise, St. George Mining, with a Niobium project , Araxa, in a prolific niobium area in Brazil, where 80% of the current world supply comes from. There are only two other sources of the metal in the world, each producing around 10% of world supply.

This is a critical metal for strengthening steel, making it lighter, and giving it temperature resistant qualities. Clearly it has military uses.

St. George are in the process of installing a pilot plant in  a local university to test the process and product quality, and create a techical hub for the benefit of the company and the university.

Capex is projected to be around US $100 million, and If things go well ,production could commence in Q4 2028.

I’ve put this on my personal watchlist and will add it to the website Tier 4 watchlist for early exploration stocks.

I also met Montage Gold, constructing the Kone Gold Mine in the Ivory Coast, which is around 50% complete. Quite a high market cap currently but if it falls with the lower gold price it may present an opportunity before production starts.

Last but not least was Borealis Mining, a company that has just commenced production at the Borealis Gold mine in Nevada. Production is slated to be around 15,000 – 20,000 ounces of gold in 2026.

Market cap is around C$182 million, which looks low for a company commencing production in Nevada.

Companies to Watch in 2026 – Silver Storm Mining

Silver Storm Mining are planning to commence production in H1 2026.

La Parilla silver mine is located in Durango, Mexico, and a well executed start-up should result in a rerate for the stock.

Companies to Watch in 2026 – Silver Storm Mining

,

Silver Storm Mining is planning to commence production in H1 2026.

La Parilla silver mine is located in Durango, Mexico, and a well executed start-up should result in a rerate for the stock.

Company profile

Silver Storm Mining is a silver exploration and development company, with two projects in Mexico.

La Parilla Silver Mine, is a former producing mine located in Durango state, Mexico. It was formerly owned by First Majestic Silver, and last produced in 2019.

The company is currently planning to restart La Parilla in the first half of 2026, and is currently working on drilling programs and a resource update. This is subject to final confirmation.

Samsung have invested around C$7 million in return for an exclusive offtake agreement for all the silver produced at market prices.

The San Diego Project (100%)

Is located in Durango state, near Torreon, Mexico.

The project  consists of four mining concessions, and is considered one of the largest undeveloped silver projects in Mexico.

There is good infrastructure, and the possibility to truck ore to the La Parilla mine.

The company are focused on restating the La Parilla mine, so no major drilling has occurred in the last two years. There is a planned 5 – 10,000 metre drill program, to be followed by a PEA.

——-

Comment

I like this story a lot because they are focused on commencing production, and have the backstop of Samsung wanting all their silver. I view Samsung’s involvement as validation of the project, they have a far superior ability to complete due diligence than the average investor.

Positives

The mine is fully permitted.

The average EV/Ag Eq for production is extremely low compared to peers, at C$82 Oz for Silver Storm.  Avino Silver is C$448 per ounce, for example, and the producer peer average is C$233 EV Ag Eq.

I have made a small investment as I have a preference for junior mining stocks going into early production in tier 1 jurisdictions.

Large holders include First Majestic Silver at 19% and Eric Sprott 11%.

Small negatives

A decision to commence mining is still pending, the company has to complete technical evaluations, which are still outstanding.

Management only hold 2% which is on the low side.

The company has a strong treasury, and C$55 million in ‘in the money’ warrants, which will dilute the fully diluted share count to over 1 billion shares.

No proper analyst coverage.

Silver Price Hits An All-Time High

The price of silver registered an all-time high on Friday 28th November, caused by a structural supply deficit as demand from the electronics, EV industries, and investment  increases.

Silver Price Hits An All-Time High

.

Silver Price Hits An All-Time High – The price of silver registered an all-time high on Friday 28th November, caused by a structural supply deficit as demand from the electronics, EV industries, and investment  increases.

The projected shortfall in supply for 2025 is projected to be 100 – 150 million ounces.

New supply is constrained as most silver is produced as a bi-product of mining other commodities. Pure silver miners are rare.

Industrial use now accounts for around 50% of supply, with solar now accounting for 20% of total silver demand.

This augurs well for investors owning shares in silver stocks in production or close to production and fully funded.
