Tocvan Ventures Corp announces resumption of drilling on the Pilar project in Mexico

Tocvan Ventures Corp. said the reverse circulation (RC) drilling campaign will begin at its Pilar gold and silver project, located in the state of Sonora, Mexico. This initiative follows a year's break dedicated to bulk sampling and land consolidation.

The Pilar project will benefit from systematic drilling for resource definition and additional targeting. The initial focus will be on gap filling and overrun targeting within and around the main Pilar area, explored by previous campaigns.

The Sonora area is renowned for its competitive exploration and development costs. Tocvan estimates the total drilling cost at $130 per meter, including various services and support. Analysis processing time ranges from 10 to 14 days, favoring rapid reporting and progressive target development.

An agreement has been reached with Sonora-based drilling company Canmex Exploraciones y Servicios (CANMEX), led by Leo Wurtz and Gerardo Martinez. This collaboration aims to maintain competitive drilling costs while ensuring operational excellence and environmental respect.

CEO Brodie Sutherland expressed his enthusiasm for the resumption of drilling, highlighting the potential for expanding mineralization and working with a trusted drilling partner.
