- Silver North Resources (TSXV:SNAG) has begun its 2025 drilling program at the Haldane Silver Property in Yukon, targeting the Main Fault zone with 10 planned holes totaling ~2,500 metres.
- The first hole will test down-dip continuity of the 2024 discovery, which included 28.36m (true width) of mineralization grading 130 g/t silver, among other metals.
- The program aims to expand high-grade silver-lead-zinc mineralization and may include a follow-up hole at the Bighorn target, with completion expected by October 2025

Silver North Resources (TSXV:SNAG) has officially launched its 2025 exploration program at the company’s flagship Haldane Silver Property, located in the Keno Hill Silver District of Yukon. The program will follow up on the 2024 Main Fault discovery, with ten diamond drill holes planned to test both down-dip and strike potential of high-grade silver mineralization.

The Haldane Property, spanning 85.79 square km. and accessible by road, lies just 25 kilometers west of Keno City and adjacent to Hecla Mining’s (NYSE:HL) producing Keno Hill Silver Mine. Known for hosting silver-lead-zinc-bearing quartz siderite veins, the property has become a focal point for Silver North’s exploration efforts.
“The focus of the 2025 program is to expand upon the discovery made at the Main Fault last year,” Jason Weber, P.Geo., Silver North’s president and CEO said in a news release. “The Main Zone has shown strong potential in both its high grades and large widths of mineralization. The current program will aim to build upon last year’s results and expand beyond the discovery section.”
The 2025 drill campaign will consist of approximately 2,500 metres of drilling from four sites. The first hole of the program (HLD25-31) is designed to test the continuity of mineralization roughly 60 metres down-dip from the 2024 Main Zone discovery. That zone revealed a structural corridor containing three stacked, high-grade silver veins, including a standout intercept of 28.36 metres (true width) grading 130 g/t silver, 0.09 g/t gold, 0.55 per cent lead, and 0.52 per cent zinc.
Previous holes HLD24-29 and HLD24-30 intersected impressive mineralization, including:
- 1.83 metres (true width) of 1,088 g/t silver, 3.90 g/t gold, 1.89 per cent lead, and 0.63 per cent zinc
- 5.8 metres (true width) of 365 g/t silver, 0.23 g/t gold, 1.80 per cent lead, and 1.37 per cent zinc
The remaining holes will be drilled in fans of three on sections spaced approximately 50 and 100 metres southwest and 50 metres northeast of the discovery section, aiming to delineate the strike and depth extent of the mineralized zone. Time and budget permitting, one additional hole may be drilled at the Bighorn target, where previous drilling intersected silver-bearing quartz-siderite-galena veins.
Silver North has contracted Paycore Diamond Drilling to carry out the drilling, with Hardline Exploration Services Ltd. providing technical, staffing, and camp support. The program is expected to wrap up by the end of October.
Silver North Resources Ltd. is a Canadian exploration-stage company, which is focused on silver discoveries in the Keno Hill Silver District of the Yukon.
