Barton Gold Holdings has launched a 4,000-meter reverse circulation drilling program at its Tolmer Silver prospect in South Australia to explore extensions of its high-grade silver mineralisation. Tolmer is one of Australia's richest modern silver finds, with previous drilling showing grades up to 17,600 g/t silver and 51.2 g/t gold near the surface. The new drilling aims to test the continuity and geological controls of the silver zone and identify potential extensions along a newly inferred strike. This accelerated program supports Barton's broader strategy to enhance its silver and gold resources in the region.
