Apollo Silver: Capitalized, Strategically Backed, and Positioned for the Next Silver Cycle
In a recent episode of Proven and Probable, host Maurice Jackson spoke with Ross McElroy President and CEO of Apollo Silver, to discuss the company’s latest financing, strategic shareholder support, and its growth strategy amid a strengthening silver market.
Apollo Silver recently completed a $27.5 million financing, increasing its treasury to nearly $60 million. The raise was led primarily by strategic investors and insiders, most notably Eric Sprott and Jupiter Asset Management, Apollo Silver’s two largest shareholders. Their continued participation and increased ownership underscore strong institutional confidence in the company’s assets, leadership, and execution capability.
The majority of the capital will be deployed at Apollo Silver’s Calico Project in San Bernardino County, California, one of the largest primary silver deposits in the United States. Calico hosts an updated mineral resource totaling approximately 125 million ounces of silver in the Measured and Indicated category, with an additional 58 million ounces inferred. Planned work includes advanced metallurgical testing, geotechnical studies, recovery optimization, mine planning, and exploration across an expanded land package.
Mr. McElroy addressed investor concerns regarding California as a mining jurisdiction, emphasizing that San Bernardino County is mining-friendly, with a long history of active mining operations and strong local support for responsible resource development.
In addition to Calico, Apollo Silver controls the Cinco de Mayo Project in Chihuahua, Mexico, a high-grade carbonate replacement deposit originally discovered by MAG Silver. The project hosts a substantial historic resource and significant expansion potential. Should Apollo Silver secure a long-term access agreement with the local community, Cinco de Mayo has the potential to become a company-making flagship asset, given its scale, grade, and jurisdiction.
The conversation also explored silver’s evolving role as both a precious and industrial metal, particularly following its designation as a U.S. critical mineral. With rising demand from solar energy, electronics, defense applications, and persistent global supply deficits, Apollo Silver is positioning itself to benefit from favorable long-term market fundamentals.
With a strong balance sheet, top-tier shareholders, two world-class silver assets in stable jurisdictions, and an experienced management team, Apollo Silver enters the coming year with multiple catalysts and a clear path forward.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – January 6, 2026) – West Point Gold Corp. (TSXV: WPG) (OTCQB: WPGCF) (FSE: LRA0) (“West Point Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the results for four holes from the high-grade zone at Northeast (NE) Tyro, part of the ongoing 15,000 metre (m) drill program at its flagship Gold Chain Project in Arizona. The Company is reporting assay results for four drill holes (936 m), GC25-85 through GC25-88.
Highlights:
Hole GC25-87 returned 27.4m of 9.56 g/t Au at 71.6m to 99.1m, including 13.7m of 18.00 g/t Au at 79.3m to 93.0m, about 50m up-dip from GC25-49 (62.5m at 4.73 g/t Au) – expanding the highest-grade part of the zone up-dip.
Hole GC25-88 returned 44.2m of 5.46 g/t Au at 140.2m to 184.4m, including 18.3m of 12.04 g/t Au at 166.1m to 184.4m – expanding the high-grade zone along strike, as this is the furthest northeast hole at Tyro.
Hole GC25-85 returned 29.0m of 5.24 g/t Au at 164.6m to 193.6m, including 12.2m of 10.48 g/t Au at 176.8m to 189.0m, about 80m down-dip from hole GC25-58 which returned 32.0m of 2.01 g/t Au.
Hole GC25-86 returned 36.6m of 2.22 g/t Au at 179.8 to 216.4m about 140m down-dip from GC25-57 which returned 12.2m at 3.52 g/t Au.
Drilling continues to explore the deeper portions of the high-grade zone between the Tyro NE and Main zones, with two holes (540 m) completed with assays pending. A total of 3,769 m of the planned 15,000m program was completed in 2025.
“Drilling at NE Tyro continues to return better than expected grades with good continuity at relatively shallow depths. The high-grade zone at NE Tyro appears to continue at depth and to the northeast, suggesting the zone remains open to further expansion as we continue drilling. We expect these results to positively impact the grade profile and the overall scale of our upcoming maiden resource. Drilling continues at Gold Chain, with one rig at NE Tyro, and one at Tyro South,” stated Derek Macpherson, President and CEO.

Summary The drilling of holes GC25-85 through GC25-88 continues to expand and provide improved definition for high-grade gold mineralization in the NE Tyro zone at the Company’s Gold Chain project in Arizona. The four holes comprising this release, GC25-85 through GC25-88, represent 936 m of the 3,769 m drilled to date in the current 15,000m program.
Each hole is briefly described below and graphically presented in both sectional and longitudinal views. Additionally, Figure 3 is a generalized longitudinal view of the NE Tyro zone showing the intercept’s mid-point, composite gold grade and estimated true width based upon geologic sections. The core of this zone remains mostly open to the northeast and to depth. West Point Gold anticipates the receipt of its Plan of Operations in early 2026, which will permit the drilling of both core and RC holes outside of the controlled patented claims, allowing for deeper tests and further exploration to the northeast and toward the Frisco Graben target area.
Along with the increased gold grades at depth, close inspection of the drill cuttings reveals an increase in varicolored chalcedony, crustiform banding, adularia and illite(?)-pyrite alteration in the wallrock.

Hole GC25-85 Hole GC25-85 traversed the Tyro NE vein/zone about 30m southwest of GC25-88 (44.2m at 5.46 g/t Au) and encountered from 164.6m to 193.6m (29.0m) 5.24 g/t Au enveloping a higher-grade zone of 12.2m at 10.48 g/t Au (Figure 2). The intercept’s midpoint is about 200m below the surface and without a surface expression, i.e. blind. The position of GC25-85 is provided in Figures 1 through 3.
Hole GC25-86 Hole GC25-86 was drilled about 140m beneath hole GC25-57 and about 200m beneath a weak surface exposure of the vein. The hole traversed a broad zone of quartz veinlets which appeared to coalesce with depth. A mineralized zone was encountered at 179.8m to 216.4m (36.6m) at 2.22 g/t Au. A geologic summary of this hole is provided in Figures 3 and 4. The quartz-chalcedony-adularia-calcite vein resembles the surrounding intercepts, and the vein package remains broad. The results indicate that the mineralized zone has coalesced into a more discrete mineralized package or vein in the relatively short distance below Hole GC25-57.
Figure 4: Cross-Sectional View of Hole GC25-86 down-dip from Holes GC25-57 and GC21-13.
Hole GC25-87 Hole GC25-87 was designed to test the NE Tyro zone between the surface and Hole GC25-49 (62.5m at 4.73 g/t Au). The hole traversed the NE Tyro structure about 65 metres below the surface and 50 m above GC25-49 (Figure 5) from 71.6m to 99.1m (27.4 m) containing 9.56 g/t Au. An internal zone of higher gold grades corresponds to quartz-chalcedony-adularia-calcite vein and breccia, along with likely stockwork veining; the zone consisted of 13.7m of 18 g/t Au. Both intercepts shown in Figure 5 suggest good continuity in this area of the vein. Sections across the vein system in this area suggest a true width of 20 to 25 metres.
Figure 5: Cross-Sectional View of Hole GC25-87 up-dip from Hole GC25-49.
Hole GC25-88 Hole GC25-88, located in Figure 1, was designed to incrementally expand the limits of gold mineralization to the northeast and beneath earlier holes (GC25-45 and GC25-46) which encountered altered and weakly veined host rocks with negligible gold. A strong vein, shown in Figure 6, was encountered about 110 metres beneath GC25-46 from 140.2m to 184.4m and contained 5.46 g/t Au over 44.2m. An internal higher-grade interval, composed of mostly quartz-chalcedony-adularia-calcite, was identified at 166.1m to 184.4m containing 12.04 g/t Au over 18.3 metres. The overall intercept is dominated by quartz veinlets which coalesce into a vein breccia approaching the footwall contact. The estimated true width of this zone is about 15 metres and remains open to the northeast and at depth.
