Executive Summary

  • Brixton Metals Corp. released results from its 2025 exploration season at the wholly owned Thorn project in BC, highlighting new geochemical targets and drill intercepts across multiple mineralized zones.
  • Significant high-grade silver and copper-gold mineralization was identified at the 95th South and Cirque East targets, with assays returning up to 642 g/t Ag and 2.16% Cu, respectively.
  • Shareholders approved a 10-for-1 share consolidation at the Feb. 4, 2026 meeting, and the company outlined a 2026 drilling campaign that will see all four of its projects (Thorn, Langis, Hog Heaven, and Atlin) actively drilled for the first time simultaneously.

Key Details

  • Geochemical Sampling: 770 soil samples and 195 rock samples collected across multiple target zones at Thorn during the 2025 season.
  • Cirque East Target: Porphyry-style mineralization identified in a monzonite intrusive unit; rock-chip assays returned up to 2.16% Cu and 39 g/t Ag. Associated with intrusive breccias and a 1-kilometre-long leach cap.
  • 95th South Target: High-grade silver veins (30cm to 2m wide) yielding up to 642 g/t Ag, 1.47% Cu, 3.56% Pb, and 1.97% Zn. Additional high-grade sample returned 414 g/t Ag. Hosted in Triassic quartz-diorite with quartz-carbonate alteration halos.
  • 2025 Drilling Progress: Total of 12,766 metres drilled across 4 targets: Camp Creek (3,223m, 19 holes), Trapper (6,272m, 30 holes), Catalyst (2,670m), and Tempest (601m).
  • Trapper Target: Gold mineralization structurally controlled along contacts between Cretaceous quartz diorite and Triassic lapilli tuffs. Hole THN25-348 collared from the same pad as previously reported holes THN25-358 and THN25-359.
  • Camp Creek High-Sulphidation: Final 2025 holes (THN25-367 to 370) intersected polymetallic veins interpreted as the shallow, high-sulphidation expression of the deeper Camp Creek porphyry system.
  • Share Consolidation: Approved at the AGM/Special Meeting on Feb. 4, 2026. 10-for-1 ratio resulting in a post-consolidation share count of 71,323,542. Subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. Exercise prices and warrant/option terms will be proportionately adjusted. Fractional shares will be rounded down; no cash paid for fractions.
  • Board Changes: New directors Ryan Goodman and Kevin Chen elected; incumbent directors Ian Ball, Cale Moodie, and Gary Thompson re-elected.
  • 2026 Project Drilling Plans:
  • Thorn: Drilling expected to commence May 2026.
  • Langis Silver (Ontario): 3,000m across 8 holes completed in 2026; assays pending.
  • Hog Heaven (Montana): Under earn-in agreement with Ivanhoe Electric, who has commenced drilling for the causative copper-gold porphyry system.
  • Atlin Goldfields (BC): Under option to Eldorado Gold, which plans to start drilling orogenic gold targets in May 2026.

Notable Quotes

  • "The definition of new exploration targets through geochemical sampling with boots on the ground has been an effective approach at the Thorn project as we continue to identify new areas of mineralization. Two thousand twenty-six is shaping up to be an exciting year for Brixton as we unlock potential at Thorn by drilling this year. Meanwhile current drilling at the Langis silver project is progressing well. Ivanhoe Electric is drilling at Brixton's Hog Heaven copper-gold porphyry project under the earn-in agreement and Eldorado Gold plans to drill Brixton's Atlin Goldfields project under the option agreement. This year will be the first time ever that all four of our projects will be drilled in the same year, so it's super exciting. Assays from Langis are anticipated in the coming weeks and months." — Gary R. Thompson, Chairman and CEO
