Metallis Kicks Off 2026 Exploration at Idaho’s Greyhound Project
Event summary
- Metallis begins 2026 field season at Greyhound Project in Idaho on July 8, 2026.
- Initial focus on Rufus Zone drilling to evaluate high-grade mineralized shoots.
- Exploration program includes diamond drilling, geological mapping, trenching, and geochemical sampling.

The big picture
Metallis’ 2026 exploration program at Greyhound builds on promising 2025 results, targeting polymetallic mineralization in a historically productive Idaho mining district. The project’s similarities to Hecla Mining’s Lucky Friday Mine could attract strategic interest, though comparable results are not guaranteed. Success here would bolster Metallis’ portfolio alongside its Kirkham Property in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle.

- Drilling Results
- Whether the 2026 drilling campaign confirms and expands high-grade mineralized shoots in the Rufus Zone.
- Target Validation
- How effectively Metallis refines existing drill targets and identifies new mineralized structures across the property.
- Geological Similarities
- The extent to which Greyhound’s geological characteristics align with those of the Lucky Friday Mine, potentially enhancing its valuation.
