Brixton Metals Corporation (TSX-V: BBB) reported a significant brownfields discovery at its Langis project, located in the historic Cobalt silver mining camp of Ontario. The company intersected ultra-high-grade silver within a newly identified area designated as the Shaft 6 Southeast (S6-SE) zone. The results stem from the current 2026 drill campaign, which has already seen 24,016 meters completed across 105 drill holes. This ongoing effort marks the company’s most intensive exploration program at the site to date, as it simultaneously advances plans for a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate regarding the project's historical tailings.

The headline results from hole LM-26-377 confirm the presence of significant silver mineralization in a location that lacks prior underground mining activity. This intercept returned 20.00 meters grading 5,015 grams per tonne (g/t) silver, including a concentrated sub-interval of 0.65 meters grading 89,125 g/t silver. These figures represent a notable advancement over previous intercepts at the project, including a March 2026 result that returned 82,334 g/t silver over 0.5 meters. Furthermore, the current findings show a marked improvement over earlier drill results from the same S6-SE area, which in May 2026 reported 13.0 meters of 594 g/t silver.

"We are super excited to have drilled more ultra-high-grade silver at Langis, especially in the Shaft 6 Southeast (S6-SE) area where no underground workings exist, effectively a new brownfields discovery." — Gary R. Thompson, Chairman and CEO

"As far as we can find in publicly available data, hole 377 represents one of the highest reported silver intercepts globally."

The S6-SE zone is currently defined over a strike length of at least 100 meters, and the mineralization remains open both laterally and at depth. Management noted that unlike the nearby Shaft 6 South zone, the S6-SE area has no known historic stopes, providing an unmined target for expansion. In addition to the headline intercept, other holes in the current batch, such as LM-26-353, returned 13.00 meters of 287.8 g/t silver, including a sub-interval of 0.55 meters at 4,320 g/t silver. The exploration team is currently executing step-out drilling along strike to test the continuity of these high-grade silver intervals and to explore a potential connection between the Shaft 6 South and Shaft 6 Southeast zones.

Market reaction to the announcement was immediate. Shares of Brixton Metals rose 21.54% on the session following the release of the drill results, closing at $0.79. Trading volume was significantly higher than the company’s typical activity, with 823,829 shares changing hands—a figure approximately 735% above the 50-day average volume of 112,029 shares. The company plans to continue its aggressive drilling strategy, with further updates expected as assays return from the laboratory, alongside the technical work required to support the upcoming tailings resource estimate. The current drilling program continues to evaluate prospective targets across the broader Langis property.
