Hycroft Mining drills 19 6 metres averaging 30 49 grams gold per tonne
Mineral exploration firm Hycroft Mining intercepted 19 6 metres grading 30 49 grams per tonne gold and 1 726 72 grams per tonne silver at its Nevada deposit
Hycroft Mining released 2025-2026 drill results that include the company's highest-grade intercept to date. Hole H26D-6175A reached 19.6 meters at an average grade of 30.49 grams per tonne gold and 1,726.72 grams per tonne silver. This includes a 1.7-meter interval with an astonishing 347.07 grams per tonne gold and 9,526.36 grams per tonne silver.
Visible gold in the intercept marks the best hole drilled in Hycroft's 40-year history and the highest gold grades ever reported at the mine. The silver grades represent the best silver grades ever drilled at Vortex. The discovery extends west and south of previously reported high-grade gold and silver intercepts. The alteration and mineralization style may indicate proximity to a potential source of the Vortex system.
Executive Chairman and CEO Diane Garrett noted that the result is exceptional and the best in Hycroft's history, with silver-equivalent grades 50% higher than previous bests. Follow-up drilling is already underway to accelerate work at the Vortex and Brimstone systems.
