Argyle Resources Completes 2026 Field Program and Defines Drill Targets at McKay Hill
Argyle Resources has finished 2026 fieldwork at McKay Hill and plans a property-wide lidar survey in early 2027.
Rhea-AI Summary
Argyle Resources (ARLYF) has completed its 2026 exploration field program at the McKay Hill silver-gold property in Yukon, Canada.
The work included prospecting and mapping, plus detailed mapping in high-priority areas with limited rock exposure. Crews collected 678 soil samples on a north–south/east–west grid to expand known mineralized areas and used a VLF electromagnetic magnetometer to delineate exposed veins and extend known structures. A further 45 rock samples were taken from both previously known and newly discovered zones, with soil geochemistry applied to trace potential extensions. Data compilation is ongoing, and results will be released as they are received, while a lidar survey covering the entire property is planned for early 2027.

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - September 17, 2026) - Argyle Resources Corp. (CSE: ARGL) (OTCQB: ARLYF) (FSE: ME0) ("Argyle" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the successful completion of the 2026 exploration program on the McKay Hill Silver Gold property located about 50 kilometers north of Keno City, Yukon Territory.
After compiling historical data on the McKay Hill Silver Gold property, fieldwork consisted of prospecting, mapping, and detailed mapping in high-priority areas, as evidenced by limited rock exposures. A total of 678 soil samples were collected on a grid oriented on northing and easting to expand the known areas of mineralization. A VLF electromagnetic magnetometer was also utilized to delineate exposed veins and to extend further known veins.
A total of 45 rock samples were taken, in which the previously known zones were sampled, and newly discovered zones were also sampled. Soil geochemistry was used to potentially trace extensions to all zones identified, including newly discovered zones in the 2026 work program.
Early in 2027, a lidar survey will be conducted over the whole property to potentially display areas of structure through orthophoto interpretation, allowing for targeted prospecting, which will start off the 2027 work season.
As compilation of the 2026 field season data is ongoing, Argyle Resources will release new information as it receives it from the geologists.
