Carlton Precious Inc. has released results from a recent rock chip sampling program conducted in late 2025 at its Dunfee gold and silver project in Nevada. The company collected 35 samples from mineralized veins and dumps, with gold assays reaching up to 6.7 grams per tonne and silver assays up to 493 grams per tonne. Notably, eight samples contained silver concentrations exceeding 2 ounces per tonne.
Following these promising findings, Carlton Precious expanded the project area by staking an additional 30 lode claims. This increase brings the total claims to 53, covering approximately 430 hectares, up from the initial 23 claims.
**Why this matters**
The high-grade gold and silver results suggest significant mineralization at the Dunfee project, potentially enhancing its economic viability. Expanding the claim area allows for a broader exploration scope, which could lead to further discoveries. These developments position Carlton Precious to advance its exploration efforts and assess the project’s potential for future development.
