Bayhorse Silver (BHS.V) suspended drilling on the afternoon of July 24 due to a wildfire at Fox Creek, 7 miles north of the Bayhorse Mine, chief executive officer Graeme O'Neill said after markets closed Monday.
The company is not currently able to assess the impact of the wildfire on its facilities as the mine site is inaccessible due to access restrictions, said the CEO.
The company was conducting underground drilling operations before the suspension, and bulk sampling crushing had also begun, he added.
