(TSXV: BRC) (the \"Company\") is pleased to provide an update on its maiden drill program at the 100% controlled Tonopah West project located in the Walker Lane trend of Western Nevada.HIGHLIGHTS:TW20-006 at the Paymaster vein returned 1,577 g/t silver equivalent (AgEq) over 4.6 metres including 3.0 metres grading 2,215 g/t AgEq. TW20-006 also intersected a second vein yielding 1.5 metres of 1,670 g/t AgEq.;The Denver vein assayed 1.5 metres grading 345 g/t AgEq in drillhole TW20-005, and TW20-004 yielded 1.5 metres grading 245 g/t AgEq; Though TW20-007 experienced significant deviation from the targeted Bermuda vein, it still intersected 1.5 metres grading 387 g/t AgEq of a previously unknown vein. The Denver, Paymaster, and Bermuda (\"DPB\") veins, in addition to the new vein encountered, represent the Company's DPB Target; Yielding 1.5 metres grading 329 g/t AgEq from the Merger vein, RC drillholes TW20-003 and TW20-002 experienced severe deviation to the east missing the main Victor target. A core drill rig has completed two of five planned additional drillholes at this target to delineate approximately 300 metres of strike along the Victor vein.; The first drillhole at the New Discovery Target, TW20-008, returned 562 g/t AgEq over 1.5 metres from the steeply dipping Discovery Vein.; andDrilling continues to ramp up with 10,000 metres of a planned 20,000 metre initial program now complete, with two drill rigs (core and RC) being utilized.The Company is approaching 10,000 metres of drilling in 19 RC and 2 core drillholes across the Victor, DPB, and Discovery targets. This initial program, originally slated to consist of 7,000 metres of drilling, has been expanded to 20,000 metres following the successful targeting of drillholes TW20-001, TW20-003, TW20-005, TW20-006 and TW20-008.Table 1: Assay results above 300 g/t AgEq cut off for drillholes TW20-001 to TW20-010DrillholeAreaFrom MetresTo MetresLength MetresGold g/tSilver g/tAgEq g/t*TW20-001Victor Vein554.74557.783.02.435221.27464.77TW20-001Victor Vein560.83563.883.011.5181,046.072,197.90Including560.83562.361.518.6671,736.733,603.40TW20-001Victor V...
