Maverick Gold and Silver (VRCFF) received BLM acknowledgment of its Notice of Intent for proposed drilling at Nevada's Gator Property. The notice covers access-road construction, eight drill pads and proposed drilling at the Gator South and GSX targets. The program may proceed only after the required financial reclamation bond is posted and the U.S. Bureau of Land Management confirms acceptance.
The planned drilling will test beneath surface alteration and geochemical anomalies for a potentially concealed precious-metals-bearing system. Mapping and geochemical analysis have outlined a mineral system along an approximately seven-kilometre north-south corridor. Drilling at Silver Vista was recently completed. Maverick aims to drill-test all three properties within a 12-month period and is advancing Jericho toward drilling over the coming months.
Maverick Gold and Silver (VRCFF) announced a non-brokered private placement targeting gross proceeds of up to C$1,100,000. The offering comprises up to 22,000,000 units at C$0.05 each.

Maverick Gold and Silver (VRCFF) has completed its Silver Vista drill program in British Columbia, with five holes drilled. The program covered 1,316 metres and focused on the MR Zone to follow up on previous drilling. Maverick said drilling finished ahead of schedule. Samples from the first two holes have been sent for laboratory analysis; samples from the remaining holes will be shipped shortly.
Historical 2021 intersections included 46 metres at 48.0 g/t silver and 0.62% copper in SV21-07, and 47.82 metres at 37.0 g/t silver and 0.21% copper in SV21-01. These results were generated by previous operators and have not been independently verified by Maverick.
Maverick Gold and Silver (VRCFF) appointed Michelle Suzuki vice president of marketing and communications and deployed SmarterIR’s investor relations platform.
Wailea Capital Advisory, which Suzuki controls, began providing communications and investor relations services on September 15, 2026, under an initial 12-month engagement at C$5,000 per month. SmarterIR’s engagement began September 1, 2026, also for an initial 12 months; Maverick will pay C$250 per month plus a one-time C$5,000 onboarding fee. The website platform draws on company-approved public disclosures. Drilling is underway at Silver Vista, and Maverick plans to advance Jericho and Gator. The company expects three projects to be drilled over the next twelve months.
Maverick Gold and Silver (VRCFF) announced on September 24, 2026, that drilling had started at its Silver Vista property in British Columbia.
The program calls for five holes totaling 1,300 metres at the MR Showing. The property comprises 17 mineral claims covering 6,444.5 hectares. Earlier operators reported a 46-metre interval averaging 48.0 grams per tonne silver and 0.62% copper in hole SV21-07, and a 47.82-metre interval averaging 37.0 grams per tonne silver and 0.21% copper in hole SV21-01. Maverick has not independently verified the historical drill results.
Maverick Gold and Silver (OTC Pink: VRCFF) reported chip channel and grab sample results from the northern portion of its Jericho Property in Lincoln County, Nevada, covering the Fluorite Flat, Upper Flats and NE Extension Zones on the West Trend.
At Fluorite Flat, 14 samples returned gold from trace to 2.16 g/t, with five above 0.5 g/t and a 1.40 m chip channel averaging 1.37 g/t Au. A 1.50 m chip channel at Upper Flats graded 2.56 g/t Au. NE Extension samples contained trace gold and silver with anomalous mercury and arsenic pathfinders. According to Maverick, these results, combined with epithermal-style alteration and the on‑trend position with the Helen and Tempa Zones, support the interpretation that the northern area overlies extensions of the mineralizing system and merits high‑priority follow‑up exploration.
Maverick Gold and Silver (OTC: VRCFF) reported results from its first comprehensive sampling program at the Jericho Property in Lincoln County, Nevada. A total of 171 chip-channel and grab samples were collected property-wide, with 153 samples from the Helen, Tempa and President's zones reported.
Gold assays ranged from trace to 7.21 g/t and silver from trace to 644.0 g/t, confirming widespread silver- and gold-bearing epithermal mineralization along two sub‑parallel trends traced over several kilometres. Sampling highlights include chip-channel intervals such as 5.25 m grading 3.16 g/t Au and 54 g/t Ag at the President's Zone, and 4.50 m grading 1.37 g/t Au and 323.33 g/t Ag at the Tempa Zone.
The work established mineralization continuity over roughly two kilometres of strike with zones exceeding 200 m in length, emphasized silver as a dominant component with very high silver-to-gold ratios, and indicated potential for bulk-tonnage targets in the Tempa footwall stockwork. Maverick holds an option to acquire 100% of Jericho by paying US$250,000 over four years, with a 3.0% net smelter royalty on future production.
Maverick Gold and Silver (CSE: MAV, OTC: VRCFF) appointed Michael Leahy to its Board of Directors, effective immediately, while Chris Farnworth resigned as director. Leahy is a junior mining executive with experience in mineral exploration, capital markets and geospatial technology, including senior roles at Auracle Geospatial Science.
According to Maverick, the appointment supports its focus on advancing gold, silver and copper exploration assets in Nevada and British Columbia. The company also granted Leahy 300,000 stock options, exercisable at $0.10 per share for five years under its incentive stock option plan.
Maverick Gold and Silver (OTC Pink: VRCFF) received formal confirmation from the British Columbia Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals that five new mineral claims adjoining its Silver Vista property have been granted. The claims add 1,901 hectares (4,698 acres), increasing the property size by 42%.
Silver Vista, about 55 km from Smithers, B.C., now consists of 17 mineral claims covering 6,444.5 hectares (15,925 acres). The new ground covers two historic soil anomalies in a geological setting considered prospective for copper and silver. Maverick is in final preparation for a fully funded drill program at Silver Vista, anticipated to start before the end of September, supported by ongoing hyperspectral core surveys and a new 3D geological model.
