Metals Creek finds gold at Ogden project

MEK · Price

Executive Summary

  • Metals Creek Resources reported discovery of a discrete high‑grade gold zone (“Naybob West”) on the Ogden Gold Project, with grab sample assays up to 7.59 g/t Au.
  • The mineralized zone is ~3.5 m wide within a 30 m‑wide alteration corridor located 400 m WNW of the historic Naybob deposit and shows similar characteristics to the known Thomas Ogden (TOG) zone.
  • Follow‑up prospecting, mapping and additional sampling are planned later this month to delineate strike extent and orientation.

Key Details

  • Project & JV: Ogden Gold Project – 50 % Metals Creek / 50 % Discovery Silver; Metals Creek is operator.
  • Location of Target: ~400 m west‑northwest of historic Naybob gold deposit, Timmins, Ontario; within a strong to intense alteration zone (fuchsite, sericite, quartz stockwork, silicification, carbonatization).
  • Alteration Zone Width: Minimum 30 m.
  • Mineralized Zone Width: Approximately 3.5 m.
  • Assay Results (grab samples):
  • Sample 1 – 0.267 g/t Au
  • Sample 2 – 4.24 g/t Au
  • Sample 3 – 4.33 g/t Au
  • Sample 4 – 7.59 g/t Au
  • Mineralogy: Quartz flooding, 1–5 % disseminated pyrite, trace arsenopyrite, local galena.
  • Sampling Note: Surface grab samples are selective and may not represent average grades; results are indicative of high‑grade potential.
  • Planned Work: Additional sampling, prospecting, and detailed mapping later in March 2026 to evaluate strike length and orientation of the zone.
  • Management Comment: Management is “highly encouraged” by the identification of high‑grade mineralization west of a past‑producing deposit; the target (Naybob West) is now a high‑priority exploration focus.
  • Qualified Person: Michael MacIsaac, P.Geo., Vice‑President Exploration, reviewed and approved disclosure per NI 43‑101.
  • Laboratory: Samples analyzed by Activation Laboratories using standard fire assay with atomic absorption finish.
