Silver Range Advances the Sniper Property
Silver Range Advances the Sniper Property
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / May 6, 2026 / Silver Range Resources Ltd. (TSXV:SNG) ("Silver Range") is pleased to provide an update on the Sniper Property in western Nevada.
Silver Range has expanded the Sniper Property from 4 to 14 claims by staking, enlarging the property to cover a high-grade gold occurrence near Gold Mountain. Sampling returned up to 16.21 g/t Au from newly-staked showings.
The Sniper Property is located on the north flank of Gold Mountain, south of Gold Point in Esmeralda County. Ribbon-banded quartz veins carrying pyrite, galena, tetrahedrite and secondary chrysocolla and wulfenite are present in the carapace of the Jurassic Sylvania Pluton, immediately below the contact with overlying Precambrian Wyman formation metasediments. The sulphide mineralization occurs in clots and locally amounts to 20% of the vein material. Mineralization is found immediately adjacent to the intrusive-metasediment contact at the North Showing. Sampling at the North Showing has returned up to 121 g/t Au and 1,375 g/t Ag from grab samples and 0.4 m @ 46.3 g/t Au from a chip sample (Silver Range News Release dated June 13, 2024). At the newly staked South Showing, similar vein-hosted mineralization is found deeper in the intrusion.
Silver Range intends to continue exploring the property with additional prospecting, geochemical surveys, geophysical surveys and geologic mapping. An updated video presentation and project brochure describing the Sniper Property may be found on the Silver Range website at https://silverrangeresources.com/projects/southwest-us/available-for-option/sniper/
