K2 Gold Drills Extensive Disseminated Mineralization and Gold-Silver Epithermal Quartz Veins at Si2 Project

K2 Gold confirms a large epithermal system at Si2, though drilling continues to return grades that remain sub-economic.

By The Northwire Desk — AI Analysis Jun 18, 2026 · 06:01 KTO · 0.74 K2 Gold Corporation
Executive Summary
  • K2 Gold Corporation released assay results from its 2026 RC drilling program at the Si2 Gold Project in Nevada.
  • The program completed 3,871 meters across 8 holes, testing five target areas (AOI1-5).
  • Results confirm a large, preserved low-sulphidation epithermal gold system with broad disseminated mineralization and high-grade quartz veins.
  • Key intercepts include 210.31m at 0.123 g/t Au in hole SR26006 and a high-grade vein intersection of 1.52m at 2.367 g/t Au with 8.13 g/t Ag in hole SR26008.
  • No economic grades were intersected in this phase.
  • Management highlighted that the fluid inclusion results correlate with drill results and the extensive surface alteration is consistent with a fully preserved epithermal system.
  • Next steps include expanded mapping, step-out drilling at AOI3, AOI4, and AOI1, and seeking joint venture partners.
Material Impact
  • The release is a Routine - Positive update. It follows the completion of the drill program in March 2026 and the mobilization of the Mojave drill rig on June 16.
  • The results are expected and incremental, validating the geological model but falling short of economic grades.
  • The news does not change the company's financial outlook or trigger immediate price movement, as the market anticipated sub-economic but geologically significant results.
  • It reinforces the company's exploration thesis but shifts near-term focus to the Mojave Project, where drilling has just commenced.
