PJX Resources Commences First-Ever Drilling at High-Priority Gar Gold Target on Zinger Property
PJX moves its first drill rig to the Gar target after weather conditions halted the ongoing drilling program at the Dewdney Trail project.
PJX Resources Inc. has launched its inaugural drill program at the Gar gold target on its Zinger Property in British Columbia. The initiative is designed to test a 1,600-metre-long gold-in-soil anomaly linked to a Reduced Intrusion Related Gold System (RIRGS). Surface sampling at the Gar site has yielded grab samples containing up to 28.84 g/t Au, with visible gold identified within sheeted quartz veins.
In a concurrent operational update, the company reported progress at the Dewdney Trail Property, where 2,700 metres of the planned 4,000-metre drill program at the Estella Basin target have been completed. Due to deteriorating seasonal weather, drilling at Estella Basin has been postponed until next year, and the drill rig has been relocated to the Gar target. This announcement follows the receipt of a renewed five-year drilling permit for Zinger on October 6, 2026, and the completion of a $6.3 million private placement in July 2026.
PJX Resources Inc. (PJX) has begun drilling at its Gar project, marking an expected operational milestone following the company’s permit acquisition and financing announcements earlier this year. The development is incremental and execution-focused, as no assay results are reported at this stage.
Separately, the company noted a weather-related delay at the Dewdney Trail project. Such setbacks are routine in northern jurisdictions and do not alter the long-term exploration thesis. The news confirms management's ability to execute on its 2026 exploration plan and deploy capital into two distinct discovery-stage targets focused on gold and critical metals. No new financial guidance, strategic partnerships, or material changes to the capital structure were disclosed.
PJX Resources Inc. (PJX) is an exploration-stage company focused on discovering new deposits in the Sullivan Mining District of southeastern British Columbia. The company holds a 100% owned 750 km² land package, representing the largest consolidated position in the district.
The company’s flagship projects are divided into two primary targets. The Dewdney Trail Property targets Sullivan-style Sedimentary Exhalative (Sedex) critical metals, including zinc, lead, silver, and cobalt. A "Quake Zone" intercept in late 2025 indicated a ~30m true thickness of pervasive multi-metal mineralization.
The Zinger Property targets a Reduced Intrusion Related Gold System (RIRGS) at the Gar intrusion. The target exhibits geological similarities to Fort Knox in Alaska and Snowline's Valley in the Yukon, featuring visible gold, sheeted quartz veins, and a 1,600m soil anomaly.
PJX Resources is in the pre-revenue exploration phase, with no mineral resource estimates or reserve declarations filed to date.
