A2GOLD COMPLETES 4,400-METRE DRILL PROGRAM AT TAYLOR AND MOBILIZES RIG TO EASTSIDE TARGET PENTE
A2 finishes Taylor drilling and moves rigs to Eastside Pente while awaiting assay results.
A2 Gold Corp. (AUAU) has completed its 2026 reverse circulation drill program at the Taylor Gold-Silver Project, which consisted of 15 holes totaling approximately 4,400 metres. Assay results for the Taylor program are currently pending, and the company will report them as they are received and interpreted.
The drill rig has since been mobilized to the Eastside Project to begin a new approximately 3,700-metre reverse circulation drill program at Target Pente. The strategy at Eastside is increasingly focused on testing higher-grade epithermal feeder faults and veins rather than expanding known bulk-tonnage systems. Eastside hosts an inferred mineral resource of 1.4 million ounces of gold and 8.8 million ounces of silver. CEO Peter Gianulis highlighted the Taylor milestone and emphasized that exploration continues without interruption at Eastside.
A2 Gold Corp. (AUAU) released a routine operational update that aligns with its previously announced 2026 exploration plan and the post-acquisition drilling schedule for the Taylor project. The company did not provide new assay data or resource estimates, meaning there is no immediate material impact on valuation. This progression is expected and incremental, serving to maintain exploration momentum while awaiting assay results.
A2 Gold Corp. (AUAU) is a Nevada-focused precious metals explorer operating two primary assets: the Eastside and Taylor projects. The Eastside Project, the company’s flagship asset, comprises a 92 km² land package in Esmeralda County and hosts an inferred resource of 1.4 million ounces of gold and 8.8 million ounces of silver. Mineralization at Eastside is open in all directions, with oxide and sulphide gold deposits amenable to heap leaching.
The Taylor Project is a 117 km² land package in White Pine County, acquired in June 2026. It features a historical silver resource of approximately 11 million ounces of silver in the measured and indicated categories, along with significant gold and antimony potential. The property is fully permitted and drill-ready. A2 Gold’s strategy focuses on district-scale exploration, targeting high-grade feeder structures and critical minerals such as antimony.
