Brixton Metals Reports Consistent Silver Grades in Langis Tailings Drill Program

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 08, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Brixton Metals Corporation has reported consistent silver mineralization across all 85 drill holes in its maiden tailings characterization program at the Langis Silver Project in Ontario, Canada. The program, completed over the mapped tailings extent, yielded an average grade of 61.7 grams per tonne (g/t) silver on a length-weighted basis over 119.5 meters of tailings intersected. The highest-grade result was 810 g/t silver over 0.50 meters in hole LT-26-051, while five other holes returned average grades above 100 g/t silver.
The Langis Silver Project, wholly owned by Brixton Metals, is situated within an established mining district that offers highway, rail, and power access, providing a significant advantage for any future recovery and reprocessing operations. The project is located approximately 500 kilometers north of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and includes a former producing mine and excellent infrastructure, such as all-season road access, power, rail connections, and a refinery.
According to Gary R. Thompson, Chairman and CEO of Brixton Metals, "The hallmark of the Langis tailings is uniformity. Hole after hole returned mineralized material at a remarkably consistent silver grade, and that consistency is precisely what a maiden resource estimate requires." Thompson emphasized the potential for near-term cash flow from material already sitting at the surface on private lands, with the added benefit of existing infrastructure.
The 2026 program comprised 85 sonic drill holes, each intersecting between 0.09 and 3.70 meters of tailings material, averaging 1.41 meters. The length-weighted average grade across the program was 61.7 g/t silver, with a median hole grade of 56.0 g/t silver. Most holes returned grades of 40 g/t silver or better, and 77 of the 85 holes fell between 40 g/t and 90 g/t silver. The grade distribution is tightly clustered, with a coefficient of variation of 0.35, supporting straightforward domaining and grade estimation for the upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate.
Metallurgical test work is currently underway to define optimized processing and recovery parameters. The company has also identified two areas within the main tailings facility that could not be drilled during the 2026 season due to ground conditions. These areas are expected to be the subject of follow-up characterization drilling.
Brixton Metals is advancing the Recovery and Remediation Plan under Ontario’s Recovery of Minerals regime, which came into effect on July 1, 2025. This regulation allows for the extraction of residual minerals from tailings and other mine wastes on existing or abandoned mine sites, providing a streamlined permitting process. The Langis Silver Project benefits from the existing infrastructure and surface and patent ownership, which supports the potential for efficient reprocessing of the tailings.
The Langis Project is separate from and exclusive of the historic tailings. An exploration target for bedrock mineralization, identified at the Langis Project, ranges between 1.0 million and 2.0 million tonnes grading 400 g/t to 800 g/t silver. While insufficient exploration has been completed to define a mineral resource, the potential quantity and grade remain conceptual.
The company’s technical teams are moving directly into metallurgical test work and resource modelling, with the ultimate goal of defining a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate. Brixton Metals believes the Langis project holds significant potential for near-term cash flow and long-term value creation, leveraging the consistent silver grades and existing infrastructure in the mining district.
