Partner:Silver North Resources Ltd
Location:YT, Canada
Stage:Exploration
Metal:Silver, Lead, Zinc
Royalty:2% NSR
AOI:86 km2
Haldane is an emerging silver exploration and royalty project located proximal to the historical Keno Hill Silver District.
Overview
The Haldane royalty covers approximately 86 square kilometres on 432 Quartz claims located twenty-five kilometres north of Mayo, central Yukon Territory.
The Haldane property covers the western extension of the Keno Hill Quartzite formation which hosts the best developed mineralization in the Keno Hill district. Keno Hill produced approximately 217 Moz of silver from 1913 to 1989 with an average grade of 1,149 g/t silver, 5.62 % lead and 3.14 % zinc. The Keno Hill district is currently held by Hecla Mining Company who produced just over three million ounces of silver in 2025.
The Haldane project is centered on a series of mineralized veins within a structural corridor that has historically produced small-scale, high grade silver at the Middlecoff zone and Johnson vein.
Royalty & Transaction Summary
Project Generation Timeline
August 2026
In August 2026, Orogen agreed to acquire a 2% NSR royalty on the Haldane property from four private vendors, each holding a 0.5% NSR. Consideration comprised C$500,000 in cash on signing of the agreement, and payments to the vendors of 30% of future royalty revenue capped at C$1.5 million, and then 15% of future royalty revenue capped at an additional C$1 million.
Exploration & Recent Activity
2026
Silver North completed 24 drill holes totalling 6,169 metres in 2026, focused on expanding silver, gold, lead and zinc mineralization along strike and down dip at the Main Fault target. Results from the first three holes include HLD26-41, which returned 4.41 metres (3.87 metres estimated true width) grading 1,669 g/t silver, 0.34 g/t gold, 3.33% lead and 2.00% zinc within a broader 12.16 metre intersection grading 727 g/t silver, 0.31 g/t gold, 3.20% lead and 2.05% zinc from 241 metres downhole. This is one of the highest-grade intersections drilled to date at Haldane.
Drilling also identified a previously unknown, blind vein approximately 120 metres up hole of the Main Fault in HLD26-40, returning 1,985 g/t silver, 0.49 g/t gold, 5.68% lead and 0.15% zinc over 0.80 metre. The intersection may indicate a new vein target in the Main Fault hanging wall. Results from the remaining 21 holes are expected through Q4 2026.
2025
To date Silver North have confirmed four Keno-style vein targets. The Main Zone Fault is the most advanced target on the property with the first successful drill testing in 2024 intersecting a wide zone of Keno style silver bearing veins, vein breccia and stockwork mineralization.
Follow-up drilling in 2025 extended mineralization at the Main Fault to 100 metres along strike and 150 metres down dip. Highlight results include hole in HLD25-31, which returned 818 g/t silver, 1.39 g/t gold, 2.54 % lead and 0.98% zinc over 13.15 metres from 249.9 metres down hole including 3.2 metres at 2,014 g/t silver.
Haldane retains significant discovery potential, with 24 historic drillholes having identified three Keno-style silver vein discoveries prior to the current campaign. Silver North is fully funded for its 2026 and 2027 drilling campaigns.
