Sun Silver (ASX:SS1) announced final drill results from its 2025 exploration program at the Maverick Springs Project, confirming thick zones of silver, gold, and antimony mineralisation that exceed existing resource grades.
The standout result came from drill hole MR25-231, which returned a massive intercept of 102.1m at 86.2g/t AgEq from a depth of 192m.
Within this zone, a high-grade core of 50.6m at 149g/t AgEq was identified, significantly boosting confidence in the southern infill zone of the Nevada-based asset.
The drilling also uncovered significant critical mineral potential, with a 9.1-meter zone grading 1% antimony, including individual assays peaking at 9.3%.
These results arrive at a strategic turning point for the company, as silver prices have performed exceptionally well in the global commodity markets, recently trading above US$100/oz.
