Strategic Metals samples 2740 g/t silver and 8.37 g/t gold at its Triple Crown Project, Yukon
Strategic Metals (TSXV:SMD) has announced significant exploration results from its Triple Crown Project in southwest Yukon's Dawson Range Gold Belt. The company's June 2025 exploration program revealed impressive precious metal grades, including 2,740 g/t silver over 0.5m and samples containing up to 8.37 g/t gold from the newly identified Central Zone porphyry target.
The exploration work, conducted through geological mapping, prospecting, and hand trenching, focused on the Southeast Zone and the Central Zone. The Southeast Zone features mineralization hosted in galena, tetrahedrite, and malachite veins within a 750 by 1,000m area. The Central Zone revealed a significant 1,000m by 900m copper and bismuth soil anomaly.
The Triple Crown Project, which has never been drilled, is considered highly prospective for silver- and gold-rich epithermal veins outboard of a porphyry-type copper-gold system.
Strategic Metals (TSXV:SMD) ha annunciato risultati esplorativi significativi dal suo progetto Triple Crown, situato nella Dawson Range Gold Belt nel sud-ovest dello Yukon. Il programma di esplorazione di giugno 2025 ha evidenziato tenori notevoli di metalli preziosi, inclusi 2.740 g/t di argento su 0,5 m e campioni contenenti fino a 8,37 g/t di oro dalla nuova area obiettivo porfirica identificata come Central Zone.
I lavori esplorativi, realizzati attraverso mappatura geologica, prospezione e scavi manuali, si sono concentrati sulla Southeast Zone e sulla Central Zone. La Southeast Zone presenta mineralizzazione ospitata in vene di galena, tetraedrite e malachite in un’area di 750 x 1.000 m. La Central Zone ha invece rivelato un’importante anomalia di rame e bismuto nel suolo estesa per 1.000 x 900 m.
Il progetto Triple Crown, mai perforato fino ad oggi, è considerato altamente promettente per vene epiterme ricche di argento e oro situate all’esterno di un sistema porfirico di tipo rame-oro.

Strategic Metals (TSXV:SMD)는 유콘 남서부 도슨 레인지 골드 벨트에 위치한 Triple Crown 프로젝트에서 중요한 탐사 성과를 발표했습니다. 2025년 6월 탐사 프로그램에서는 0.5m 구간에서 은 2,740 g/t와 새로 확인된 중심 대상인 Central Zone의 시료에서 최대 금 8.37 g/t 등 인상적인 귀금속 등급이 확인되었습니다.
지질도 작성, 답사 및 수작업 트렌칭을 통해 수행된 탐사 작업은 Southeast Zone과 Central Zone에 중점을 두었습니다. Southeast Zone에서는 750 x 1,000m 범위 내의 광맥에서 연광(갈레나), 테트라에드라이트, 말라카이트가 호스트하는 광화가 관찰되었습니다. Central Zone에서는 1,000 x 900m 규모의 구리 및 비스무트 토양 이상이 확인되었습니다.
지금까지 시추가 전혀 이루어지지 않은 Triple Crown 프로젝트는 포타시형(혹은 포르피리) 구리-금 시스템 외곽에 위치한 은·금 풍부한 열수광맥(에피서멀) 탐사 대상으로 매우 유망한 것으로 평가됩니다.

Les travaux d'exploration, réalisés par cartographie géologique, prospection et tranchées manuelles, se sont concentrés sur la Southeast Zone et la Central Zone. La Southeast Zone présente une minéralisation hébergée dans des veines de galène, tétraédrite et malachite sur une surface de 750 x 1 000 m. La Central Zone a révélé une anomalie de cuivre et de bismuth dans les sols de 1 000 x 900 m.
Le projet Triple Crown, qui n'a jamais été foré, est considéré comme très prometteur pour des veines épithermales riches en argent et en or situées en périphérie d'un système porphyrique cuivre-or.
Strategic Metals (TSXV:SMD) hat bedeutende Explorationsergebnisse aus seinem Triple Crown-Projekt im Dawson Range Gold Belt im Südwesten des Yukon bekanntgegeben. Das Explorationsprogramm im Juni 2025 ergab beeindruckende Edelmetallgehalte, darunter 2.740 g/t Silber über 0,5 m und Proben mit bis zu 8,37 g/t Gold aus der neu identifizierten Central Zone als porphyrisches Ziel.
Die Arbeiten, durchgeführt durch geologische Kartierung, Prospektion und Handaufschlüsse, konzentrierten sich auf die Southeast Zone und die Central Zone. In der Southeast Zone tritt Mineralisierung in Galenit-, Tetraedrit- und Malachitadern innerhalb eines Bereichs von 750 x 1.000 m auf. Die Central Zone zeigte eine bedeutende Kupfer- und Wismutbodenanomalie von 1.000 x 900 m.
Das Triple Crown-Projekt, das noch nie gebohrt wurde, gilt als vielversprechend für silber- und goldreiche epithermale Adern, die außerhalb eines porphyrischen Kupfer-Gold-Systems liegen.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 19, 2025 / Strategic Metals Ltd. (TSXV:SMD) ("Strategic" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results from an exploration program at its wholly owned Triple Crown Project in southwest Yukon. The Project lies within the Dawson Range Gold Belt, a district that includes the Coffee, Casino, Klaza and other gold, copper and silver deposits.
In June 2025, the Company completed a program of geological mapping, prospecting and hand trenching at Triple Crown. Hand trenches at the Southeast Zone were excavated along strike from trenches completed by Strategic in 2016 (Figure 1), which had returned results of 570 g/t silver over 6.4 m (Strategic Metals News Release, August 2016). Mineralization is hosted in semi-massive to massive galena, tetrahedrite and malachite veins, as well as strongly oxidized, banded to brecciated quartz veins, within a 750 by 1000 m area. Continuous chip samples from the 2025 trenches yielded highlight results of 2740 g/t silver over 0.5 m, 830 g/t silver over 1.5 m and 158 g/t silver over 8.75 m. Results from both programs are tabulated in the table below.
Trench ID | Sample Interval (m) | Silver (g/t) | Lead (%) |
TR-25-01 | 8.75 | 158 | 2.15 |
TR-25-02 | 1.50 | 830 | 7.76 |

TR-16-05* | 0.90 | 375 | 8.33 |
*2016 analysis
Prospecting and sampling also returned assays of up to 8.37 g/t gold from grab and composite samples collected at the newly identified Central Zone porphyry target. The target covers a 1000 m by 900 m, copper (up to 4780 ppm) and bismuth (up to 427 ppm) soil anomaly that is underlain by Mid-Cretaceous Whitehorse Suite granodiorite to syenite, Late Cretaceous Carmacks Group intermediate to basic volcanic rocks and various types of dykes.
Triple Crown is considered to be highly prospective for silver- and gold-rich epithermal veins outboard of a porphyry-type copper-gold system. The mineralization has received little historical exploration and has never been drilled.
Analytical work was done by ALS Minerals, with sample preparation in Whitehorse, Yukon and assays and geochemical analyses completed in North Vancouver, British Columbia. All rock samples were analyzed for gold by fire assay fusion and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (Au-ICP21) and 48 other elements by four acid digestion and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ME-MS61). Overlimit values were determined for silver, lead and zinc by four acid digestion and inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (Ag- and Pb-OG62). Further overlimit analysis for samples with silver values greater than 1500 g/t were analyzed by fire assay using a gravimetric finish (Ag-GRA21).
Technical information in this news release has been approved by Strategic's Vice President Exploration, Jackson Morton, P.Geo., a qualified person as defined under the terms of National Instrument 43-101.
