Executive Summary

  • Independence Gold Corp. has commenced a helicopter‑borne high‑resolution magnetic and radiometric survey over its 3Ts Project and the newly staked Tay property in central British Columbia.
  • The survey will cover ~4,284 line‑kilometres at 100 m line spacing and 40 m flight height, using state‑of‑the‑art cesium‑vapour magnetometers and 8.4‑L gamma spectrometers, delivering one of the highest‑resolution datasets ever acquired in the area.
  • Data acquisition is expected to finish in late October 2025, with processed data and interpretation maps to be delivered within four weeks thereafter, supporting target definition and regional structural modelling.

Key Details

  • Survey Scope: ~4,284 km of systematic low‑level flight lines across three blocks (3Ts East, 3Ts West, Tay).
  • Line Spacing & Flight Height: 100 m line spacing; nominal altitude 40 m above ground.
  • Instrumentation: Cesium vapour magnetometers + 8.4‑L gamma spectrometers for magnetic and radiometric measurements.
  • Project Areas:
  • 3Ts Project: 31 mineral claims, ~35,486 ha, located ~185 km SW of Prince George; hosts ≥19 known epithermal quartz‑carbonate veins (50–1,100 m strike, up to 32 m true width).
  • Tay Property: 3 mineral claims covering ~40 km², 25 km NE of 3Ts, road‑accessible, same Jurassic Naglico Formation host rocks.
  • Exploration Context: Regional BC Geological Survey geochemical data show gold and copper anomalies above the 95th percentile in nearby stream drainages, indicating strong exploration potential.
  • Field Work (Summer 2025): Completed geological mapping and prospecting; identified structural and lithological controls that will guide survey interpretation.
  • Timeline: Data acquisition to complete late October 2025; final processed data & maps expected within four weeks of completion.
  • Qualified Person: Andy Randell, P.Geo., independent consultant, has reviewed the technical information per NI 43‑101.

Notable Quotes

“The high‑resolution airborne survey will significantly enhance our understanding of the structural and alteration controls that host gold‑silver vein systems across both the 3Ts and Tay projects,” – Randy Turner, President & CEO.
