|
| Most silver deposits get measured in grams per tonne, and a genuinely good one might run 200 or even 300 g/t silver.
|
| Which makes what Brixton Metals (BBB.V; BBBXF.OTC) just drilled at its Langis Silver Project in Ontario something for the record books:
|
| The company cut a half-meter interval running a (nearly) unheard-of 89,125 g/t silver — a grade so far outside the normal range it’s easier expressed as over 2,800 troy ounces of silver per tonne of rock!
|
| That grade was “nearly” unheard of...because the company hit another plus-80,000 g/t silver intersection in an entirely different hole earlier this year.
Consider that in a single hole, LM-26-377, in the newly discovered Shaft 6 Southeast zone, the drill has delivered 20.00 meters of 5,015 g/t silver. This includes:
- 14.00 meters of 7,150 g/t silver
- 1.15 meters of 74,137 g/t silver
- 0.65 meters of 89,125 g/t silver
|
| And More...
|
| Chairman and CEO Gary Thompson notes that hole may represent one of the highest reported silver intercepts globally.
And again, this is not an isolated fluke.
|
| It’s actually the second time this year that Langis has delivered a grade Brixton describes as among the highest ever recorded worldwide.
And those intercepts came about 140 meters apart — inside a zone that has never been mined before.
|
| Cobalt, Ontario has produced silver since outcropping veins were first found there in 1903, and Langis itself produced 10.4 million ounces of silver at a head grade of 20 to 25 ounces per tonne from 1908 to 1989, closing only when silver prices collapsed to $5 an ounce.
What Brixton’s drill has now found is that a century-old camp still has more to give...perhaps much more...in ground nobody thought to look at before.
|
| Grades That Rewrite
What A Silver Deposit Can Look Like
|
| Grades this extreme are usually confined to narrow, hard-to-mine veins often measured in centimeters.
What Brixton is finding instead is a full 20 meters running an average of 5,015 g/t silver, and within that, 14 continuous meters averaging 7,150 g/t.
|
|
| The core photographs from hole LM-26-377 show extraordinary, high-grade intervals dispersed throughout the eye-popping intervals that made the headlines.
|
| It is a genuinely wide, continuously high-grade zone — the kind of combination that could support high-margin, bulk-tonnage silver production and the cash flow that comes with it, rather than a narrow vein that is expensive to chase underground.
Finding grades like this concentrated over meters, not centimeters, is the difference between an interesting drill result and a deposit that could change what the market expects a junior silver company to deliver.
|
| A Company That Bet On Silver At The Right Time
|
| Brixton has held Langis since 2016, but for years it was the Thorn project that got the company’s exploration efforts.
|
| Thorn is Brixton’s copper-gold porphyry district in BC’s Golden Triangle that is backed by a strategic investment from BHP — the world’s largest miner — and is now being advanced by a fully funded 10,000-meter drill program.
|
| The company also optioned out two other projects over that time: Hog Heaven in Montana to Ivanhoe Electric and Atlin Goldfields in BC to Eldorado Gold. This lets those majors fund exploration while Brixton keeps its ownership upside.
Between Thorn’s BHP backing and two option deals with major miners footing the bill, these assets could arguably support Brixton’s current market value all alone.
|
| Brixton was focused on those projects for years. Then silver turned higher, and management redirected serious drilling effort back to Langis, chasing the kind of scale that separates a real silver producer from an exploration story.
|
| The result is what you just read above — results that far exceed even the extraordinary grades realized by the historic mine.
And the market has yet to fully price in what grades like these could mean for the company....
|
| More Ounces, More Drills, And More Coming
|
| At Langis alone, Brixton has completed 105 holes and more than 24,000 meters in 2026 — its largest single-project drill program in company history — with two drills turning right now and plans to add more in the months ahead.
|
|
| A drill program that keeps delivering record grades — with more results still to come.
|
| The Shaft 6 Southeast zone hosting these exceptional grades is a new discovery, with no historic underground workings anywhere near it. Moreover, it remains completely open along strike, down-plunge and laterally. Brixton is stepping out to test the ground between its two ultra-high-grade holes as well as further along an emerging southeast trend.
|
| With headline-making results like these, every new assay batch is its own market catalyst.
|
| Running in parallel is Langis’s tailings program, backed by an accelerated support initiative from the Ontario government for tailings recovery.
The historic mill tailings on the property sit on private, patented land with road and power access already in place — factors which would make processing simple and likely very inexpensive.
|
| Because that silver is sitting in already-broken material rather than locked in hard rock, tailings reprocessing could offer Brixton a faster, lower-capital path to early cash flow than a conventional mine build would ever provide.
|
| And given the head grades of the producing mine that they came from, the grades of these tailings could be remarkable for such an easily exploited resource.
For the greater Langis project, the company’s own Exploration Target of 1 to 2 million tonnes grading 400 to 800 g/t silver works out to between roughly 13 and 51 million ounces of contained silver.
|
| Of course, that range doesn’t yet exist as a defined resource, and Brixton is careful to say so: The current drill program is exactly what’s needed to test and define it, with a formal resource estimate to follow once enough holes are in the ground.
|
| And also consider this: The target itself is based on historic mine production before this year’s assays existed. If the grades reported so far are any guide, upside surprises could put Langis in a class of silver discovery few companies this size ever reach.
|
| A Story Still Ahead Of The Market
|
| Again, Brixton’s other assets, Thorn’s BHP-backed porphyry program and two fully funded option deals with Eldorado Gold and Ivanhoe Electric, arguably justify the company’s current valuation on their own.
|
| Langis, and the world-class grades it has delivered, come on top of that.
|
| A brand new discovery zone that has never been touched by mining. Two record-breaking intercepts in four months. A 60,000-meter program still running, with more drills on the way. A tailings opportunity that could deliver cash flow long before a conventional mine is ever built.
And a maiden resource still ahead once the drilling program is complete.
Investors who want what could be the best new silver play in the market need to take a look at Brixton Metals now...before the next batch of assays can make headlines once again.
