Bayhorse Silver Extracts 25 Ton Metallurgical Sample from the Bayhorse Silver Mine

Bulk sample extraction for resource definition and permitting support

By The Northwire Desk — AI Analysis Apr 07, 2026 · 08:01 BHS · 0.075 Bayhorse Silver Inc.
Executive Summary
  • On April 7, 2026 Bayhorse Silver announced it has extracted a 25‑ton “run of mine” bulk metallurgical sample from two ready‑for‑mining faces (Big Dog Zone and Goldilocks Zone) at the Bayhorse Silver Mine in Oregon.
  • The sample will be crushed, screened (±8 mm), sorted via a Steinert ore sorter (~40 t/h capacity) and processed to confirm mill recoveries, flotation performance, tailings composition and wastewater remediation requirements under NI 43‑101 protocols.
  • Historical drill intercepts from the sampled zones show exceptionally high silver grades (up to 1,642 g/t Ag ≈ 54.8 oz/t) together with significant copper, antimony, zinc and minor gold mineralization.
  • The bulk sample is intended to mimic full‑scale mining operations, providing data on ore sorter silver upgrade, metal recoveries (Ag, Cu, Sb, Zn) and concentrate quality for downstream processing or potential in‑house bar production pending successful antimony leach results.
Material Impact
  • This announcement aligns with the company’s previously disclosed 2026 work program (Jan 7 & Jan 15 releases) which outlined a planned underground bulk sample, metallurgical testing and permitting activities.
  • No new financing, resource estimate update or permit approval is reported; the news provides operational progress rather than a material change to valuation outlook.
  • Given that the market was already aware of the intention to take a 25‑ton bulk sample for NI 43‑101 work and permitting, the release represents an expected incremental step – therefore it is routine positive.

Company Overview
  • Bayhorse Silver Inc. is a junior mining company focused on the Bayhorse Silver Mine in northeastern Oregon, USA.
  • The mine hosts high‑grade tetrahedrite mineralization (Ag‑Cu‑Sb‑Zn) with historical production of direct‑shipping silver ore up to 240 oz/t Ag and associated base metals.
  • Current NI 43‑101 inferred resource (per Turner et al., 2018): 292,300 t @ 21.65 oz/t Ag (~673 g/t) for approximately 6.3 Moz silver.
  • Adjacent exploration target: the Pegasus porphyry copper‑silver project in Idaho, believed to be linked via a shallow pluton and rhyolite‑hosted mineralization extending across the Snake River.
