Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation announced additional drill results from its 2025-2026 Exploration Drill Program at the Hycroft Mine in Nevada, reporting high-grade silver and gold intercepts at both the Vortex and Brimstone systems. At Vortex, hole H26D-6090 returned 30.5 meters at 780.53 g/t silver and 0.49 g/t gold, including 11.2 meters at 1,664.80 g/t silver, while hole H26D-6172 intersected 6.1 meters at 21.12 g/t gold, including 1.5 meters at 43.00 g/t gold, suggesting a potential separate high-grade gold system.
