Silver North Resources Ltd. reports that the 2026 field program at the Veronica Property, located in the Yukon?s Silvertip District, has been completed. The program was designed to build on the success of the 2025 program which identified silver mineralization in float and outcrop in stratigraphy that appears to be prospective for Carbonate Replacement Deposit style mineralization, similar to that seen at Coeur Mining?s Silvertip Mine Project, located 11 km to the southwest of Veronica. The primary objective of the 2026 program at Veronica was to expand an open-ended multi-element soil geochemical anomaly that currently covers an area of 1.2 km by 1 km.
Detailed prospecting and mapping within the anomaly was completed to further understand and expand the Lodge and Cooper showings, where mineralized float returned 2,860 g/t silver and an outcropping northeast-trending fault returned 33.2 g/t silver. The program also investigated several target areas defined by airborne magnetics and VTEM geophysical anomalies. Contour soil geochemical lines were carried out in select areas of the southern half of the project where anomalous soil geochemical results coincide with magnetics and VTEM conductivity anomalies.
In total, 1,112 soil geochemical samples (including 60 samples from the adjacent Tim Property) and 53 rock samples were collected in the program. Results will be reported once analytical results have been received and incorporated into the Veronica database and interpreted together with geophysical data and lithological mapping from the 2026 program.
