Silver Pony Intersects GalenA-PYrite Veining in All Three Holes Drilled at the Revelstoke Trend Thus Far; Surface Grab Samples Return up To 1,610 g/t Ag
Rhea-AI Summary
Silver Pony Resources (OTC: PONIF) reported its third 2026 exploration update for the Silver Pony Project in southeastern British Columbia. The first three holes ever drilled on the Revelstoke Trend (SP-26-005, 006, 007) all intersected galena-pyrite vein breccias at marble–schist contacts beneath historic workings, with multiple mineralized intervals logged in each hole (true widths not yet known and assays pending).
According to Silver Pony, 2026 surface grab samples returned up to 1,610 g/t silver and >15% lead on the northwest trend, and 442 g/t silver with >15% lead roughly 40 meters from the Revelstoke drill pad. All ten surface samples contained silver and eight exceeded 0.2% lead. Hole SP-26-008 is in progress to test the trend at depth, while core from SP-26-001 to 005 has been submitted for assay and SP-26-006 and 007 are being prepared. The company emphasizes that core observations are qualitative and that investors should await laboratory assay results to determine metal grades.
Positive
- All first three Revelstoke holes intersect galena-pyrite vein breccias at targeted contacts
- High-grade silver in surface grabs up to 1,610 g/t Ag and >15% Pb in 2026 sampling
- Revelstoke grab sample near drill pad returns 442 g/t Ag with >15% Pb
- Multiple mineralized intervals logged in SP-26-005 to SP-26-007 across several meters each
- Eight of ten 2026 surface samples report more than 0.2% lead along project targets
- Structured QA/QC program with certified standards, blanks and duplicates at 5% insertion rate
Negative
- No drill core assays have been received yet for any 2026 holes
- Logged intervals are qualitative only; metal grades remain unknown until lab results
- Grab samples are selective and not necessarily representative of overall project mineralization
- Lead values above 15% exceeded assay method limits and require higher-range re-assay

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 27, 2026) - Silver Pony Resources Corp. (CSE: PONY) (FSE: BJ40) (OTC: PONIF) (formerly Carlyle Commodities Corp.) ("Silver Pony" or the "Company") provides its third exploration update from the Silver Pony Project (the "Project") in southeastern British Columbia. The first three holes ever drilled on the Revelstoke Trend have intersected galena-pyrite vein breccias. Surface sampling has returned up to 1,610 g/t silver, including 442 g/t silver located approximately forty meters from the drill pad.

Highlights
- SP-26-005, SP-26-006 and SP-26-007, the first three holes ever drilled on the Revelstoke Trend, each intersected galena (PbS) -pyrite (FeS2) vein breccias on the marble and schist contacts, directly below the historic workings (Table 1, Figure 1).*
- In every dataset to date, from the historic trench assays to the 2026 surface assays, the presence of galena has been associated with elevated levels of silver.
- A surface grab sample approximately 40 meters from the drill pad returned 442 g/t Ag with greater than
15% Pb (Table 1). - Grab samples of massive galena mineralization from the northwest trend also returned up to 1,610 g/t Ag. (Table 2).
- Drilling is ongoing with the initial assays expected in due course, and the Company looks forward to providing more updates as the drilling program continues.
* Geological observations were made from core logging and are qualitative. They indicate that mineralization is present, not what grade it carries. The metal content of these intersections will be known only when laboratory assay results are received, and readers are cautioned to await those results before drawing conclusions.
Revelstoke Trend Drilling
The Revelstoke Trend had never been drilled before August 14, 2026. The first three holes were collared from a single pad below the historic trenches and adits and drilled as a fence, so the same contacts were cut three times at increasing depth. Each hole intersected the marble and schist contacts that surface mapping predicted, and each contact carried a vein breccia with fine grained to semi-massive galena and pyrite, accompanied by magnetite as at the historic workings.
Hole SP-26-008 is now being drilled and is collared on the valley floor roughly 200 meters from the first three holes to cut the same contacts at depth below them.
Drill core from holes SP-26-001 through SP-26-005 has been submitted to the lab for assay. Holes SP-26-006 and 007 are being sampled and prepared for shipment to the lab. A core orientation tool is in use from SP-26-008 onward so the orientation of the mineralized contacts can be measured.

What Comes Next
Hole SP-26-008 is continuing, and another drill pad has been scouted along the trend, as well mapping and structural work are ongoing ahead of the upcoming drill hole. The first drill assays from the Black Warrior and Old Gold holes are expected in due course.
Chris Furey, Silver Pony's VP of Exploration, commented: "We are continuing to hit galena-pyrite vein breccias in all three completed holes at the Revelstoke Trend, with each hole cutting several mineralized intervals on the contacts we targeted, which is an encouraging sign this early in the program. What makes the galena so interesting is that everywhere we have assay data on this property to date, from the historic trenches to this season's surface samples, it has indicated elevated levels of silver. That sampling returned 442 g/t silver roughly forty metres from the drill pad, and up to 1,610 g/t silver from the northwest trend, a key target for follow-up work. These results add further evidence that the thesis we built from the historic record is bearing fruit, and the pending core assays will tell us what the drill intersections carry."
