Bunker Hill Mining announced initial positive results from its underground exploration drill program at the 'Cate-Eight' Target within the Bunker Hill Mine. Drillhole BHE26-01 intersected new veins with high-grade silver and lead mineralization, which were previously unmined. These findings are near existing mine infrastructure and have the potential to be incorporated into the near-term production plan. The company also confirmed it is on track to restart operations in June 2026, with 93% of pre-production activities completed. Sam Ash Music, President and CEO, expressed confidence in the deposit and the mine plan's ability to return to a 50/50 Silver to Base Metals revenue mix.
