Blackrock Silver Corp

Blackrock Silver Corp is a Canadian exploration and development company focused on precious metals, primarily silver. The company was founded in 2008 and is based in Vancouver, British Columbia. The history of Blackrock Silver Corp begins with the acquisition of the Silver Cloud project in Nevada, USA. In 2018, the company acquired a 100% interest in the project from a private individual.

The Silver Cloud project covers an area of approximately 4.4 square kilometres and is located in the Walker Lane trend, a highly mineralized zone known for its gold and silver deposits. In 2019, Blackrock Silver Corp acquired an option to acquire the Tonopah West project in Nevada, USA. The Tonopah West project is adjacent to the historic Tonopah Silver District, which produced over 174 million ounces of silver and 1.8 million ounces of gold. In 2020, Blackrock Silver Corp completed a reverse takeover of Aldebaran Resources Inc, a mineral exploration company focused on copper and gold projects in Argentina.

The reverse takeover allowed Blackrock Silver Corp to acquire Aldebaran Resources' copper and gold projects, including the Altar project, a large, undeveloped copper-gold deposit in San Juan province, Argentina. As of early 2023, Blackrock Silver Corp is focused on advancing its Silver Cloud and Tonopah West projects in Nevada, USA, on delineating a significant silver resource. The company is also exploring opportunities to develop its copper and gold projects in Argentina. Overall, Blackrock Silver Corp has a relatively short but eventful history and has positioned itself as a promising junior mining company focusing on precious metals exploration and development.
