Ashley Gold Corp. Submits TAK-26-03 for Fire Assay, Shares Example Mineralization

Ashley Gold Corp.

Executive Summary
  • Ashley Gold Corp. concluded Phase 1 diamond drilling on the 100% owned Tak Patents in Dryden Area, Ontario.
  • Five drill holes were completed during the program with core logging and cutting progressing at anticipated rates.
  • Visual observations indicate increasing sulphide content and chalcopyrite at depth in holes TAK-26-02 and TAK-26-03.
  • Hole 2 represents the deepest hole drilled in Phase 1 and in the history of the property.
  • Assay results for holes TAK-26-01, TAK-26-02, and TAK-26-03 are currently pending submission to ActLabs Dryden.
  • Samples from TAK-26-03 were completed on May 4, 2026, and delivered to the laboratory.
Material Impact
  • The news confirms execution of the announced Phase 1 drilling program which was funded by previous financings in late 2025 and early 2026.
  • Visual mineralization (sulphides/chalcopyrite) is positive but does not confirm grade; assay results are required to validate economic potential.
  • The completion of Phase 1 without major delays or cost overruns suggests operational competence, reducing execution risk slightly.
  • No material financial impact as no new capital was raised or asset sold in this specific release; proceeds from Tabor-Sakoose disposition ($475k) were received in April.
  • Market expectations for drilling progress are already priced in given the mobilization announcements in January and February 2026.
