Advanced Gold Commences Permitting of Doyle Property for 2026 Drill Program

AUEX · Price

Executive Summary

  • Advanced Gold announced it is securing all permits for a 3,000‑metre diamond drilling program at its 100 % owned Doyle Property in the Batchawana Greenstone Belt.
  • The drill program will target newly identified NE‑trending extensional structures that may host significant gold mineralization, building on recent high‑grade surface results (up to 13.2 g/t Au).
  • Historical data show a historic intercept of 49.8 g/t Au at 80 m depth in hole T94‑22, supporting the prospectivity of the target area.

Key Details

  • Permit Acquisition: Company is finalizing acquisition of all required permits to commence drilling in spring 2026.
  • Drill Program Scope: Planned total drill length of approximately 3,000 m using diamond drilling techniques.
  • Target Structures: Focus on NE‑trending extensional structures identified via LiDAR and geophysical interpretation; previously underexplored compared with historic NNW trends.
  • Recent Surface Results (2024‑2025):
  • Visible gold discovered on surface in late 2024.
  • High‑grade grab samples: 13.2 g/t Au and 9.82 g/t Au.
  • Channel sampling: 1.23 g/t Au over 40.6 m and 2.4 g/t Au over 16.2 m.
  • Historical Correlation: Surface anomalies correspond to historic hole T94‑22, which returned 49.8 g/t Au at 80 m depth.
  • Contracting: Company is finalizing drilling service contracts; expected start of field work in spring 2026.
  • Qualified Person Statement: James Atkinson, MSc, PGeo (non‑independent QP) reviewed and approved the geological information, noting limited verification of historic data.

Notable Quotes

“The discovery of visible gold at surface in 2024 fundamentally changed our understanding of the Doyle Property… This program represents our most aggressive effort to date to unlock the ‘Hemlo‑style’ potential of the Batchawana Greenstone Belt.” – Arndt Roehlig, President & CEO


Materiality Assessment: Material – Positive (significant exploration initiative with high‑grade surface results and historic intercepts indicating strong upside potential).
