Quarterback proceeds with phase I exploration at Twin

QB · Price
Executive Summary
- Quarterback Resources has launched a Phase I exploration program at the Twin Gold Project, encompassing geochemical sampling, rock sampling, ortho‑lidar surveying, and camp site reclamation.
- 177 historic core samples have been logged and assayed (results pending), and the lidar survey will support future resource modeling and UAV magnetics work.
- The release reiterates historic drill intercepts across multiple zones (Takla‑Rainbow, Red, East Red, Ridge, Talka‑Rainbow East) highlighting continued mineralization potential.
Key Details
- Program Scope:
- Geochemical sampling/logging of historic core (177 samples collected).
- Geochemical rock sampling from the main Takla‑Rainbow gold zone and a potential extension.
- Ortho/lidar survey covering the Takla‑Rainbow zones and access road; intended to map historic disturbances, create a terrane model for future resource calculations/high‑resolution UAV magnetics, analyze structures, and establish a baseline before further exploration.
-
Reclamation of the historic Twin camp site.
-
Assay Status: All 177 core samples are pending assay results.
-
Historic Drill Intercepts (core):
- Takla‑Rainbow zone: Hole TR13‑88 – 22.52 m @ 2.26 ppm Au, 2.15 ppm Ag, 0.19 % Cu (68–90.52 m).
Hole DDH‑24 – 131.98 m @ 1.32 ppm Au, 0.78 ppm Ag (130 m NW of zone). - Red zone: Hole RZ06‑04 – 187 m @ 0.29 % Cu, 0.07 ppm Au, 2.33 ppm Ag; includes 33 m @ 0.59 % Cu, 0.14 ppm Au, 4.19 ppm Ag and 10 m @ 0.98 % Cu, 0.19 ppm Au, 7.68 ppm Ag.
- East Red zone: No historic drilling; identified as high‑priority target based on two chargeability anomalies (west & east) with a gap in IP coverage.
- Ridge zone: Historic rock samples returned up to 9.95 ppm Au and 415.7 ppm Ag.
-
Talka‑Rainbow East zone: Recent 2024 company sampling yielded gold values of 32.1 ppm, 25.2 ppm, and 16.35 ppm; associated with a large gold‑silver soil anomaly and remains untested by drilling.
-
Project Context:
- Located in the Quesnel trough, Omineca mining division, BC (~250 km NW of Prince George).
- Adjacent to several advanced projects (e.g., Northwest Copper’s Kwanika/Stardust, Centerra Gold’s Mount Milligan).
-
Historic work includes 109 drill holes totaling 21,878 m and identification of >15 mineralized zones across three styles (high‑grade veins, alkalic‑related gold, alkalic‑porphyry Cu‑Au).
