Renegade Hits Up to 1,013 g/t Silver and 8.6 g/t Gold in Nevada Rock Chips

High-Grade Surface Sampling Confirms Potential

Renegade Exploration Limited (ASX, RNX) has delivered encouraging results from its Broken Hills Project in Nevada, reporting rock chip assays with silver grades reaching 1,013 grams per tonne and gold up to 8.6 grams per tonne. These results not only confirm earlier findings from mid-2025 but also extend the known mineralised epithermal zone to over two kilometres in length, highlighting the project's growing potential within a world-class mining district.

Strategic Location in the Walker Lane Trend

The Broken Hills Project sits within the Walker Lane Trend, a highly mineralised corridor that hosts significant gold, silver, and copper deposits, including the Rawhide mine which has produced nearly two million gold equivalent ounces since 1990. Renegade’s exploration activities here tap into this prolific geological setting, which has recently seen renewed interest due to new discoveries and rising precious metals demand.

Geological Insights and Mineralisation Characteristics

The mineralisation at Broken Hills is characterised by quartz-chalcedony veins, breccias, and silicified structures within a strongly clay-altered rhyolite host rock. The geochemical signature includes elevated levels of silver, gold, arsenic, and molybdenum, typical of epithermal vein systems. The recent rock chip sampling program, comprising 20 samples collected in late 2025, has extended the southern mineralised zone northwards by more than 50%, suggesting the possibility of a continuous mineralised corridor exceeding two kilometres.

Next Steps, From Surface Sampling to Drilling

While the rock chip results are promising, Renegade acknowledges that drilling is required to confirm the continuity and depth extent of the mineralisation. The company plans to undertake further geological mapping, surface sampling, and geophysical surveys to refine drill targets ahead of the upcoming drilling season. This methodical approach aims to build on the surface indications and move towards defining a resource.

Broader Portfolio and Market Context

Renegade’s Broken Hills Project is one of three gold-silver projects it holds in Nevada’s Walker Lane Trend, alongside Caisson and the recently acquired Fireball Ridge. The company’s broader portfolio also includes assets in Australia and Canada, positioning it well to capitalise on the current favourable market conditions for precious metals. Chairman Robert Kirtlan emphasised the strategic value of these projects amid rising metal prices and growing supply demand.
