Executive Summary

  • Trifecta Gold reports high‑grade gold intercepts from recent rock sampling at the Rye and Mount Hinton projects, including up to 8.98 g/t Au (Rye) and a 20.6 g/t Au specimen (Mount Hinton).
  • Diamond drilling totals 1,945 m in 2025 (1992 m at Rye; 753 m at Mount Hinton) with core now being shipped for detailed geochemical analysis (turn‑around expected 6–7 weeks).
  • No significant gold or silver results were returned from the two Mount Hinton drill holes, but trenching yielded 9.85 g/t Au over 1.30 m and a high‑grade specimen, supporting continued exploration in the Tombstone Gold Belt.

Key Details

  • Rye Project – Rock Sampling
  • 66 rock samples collected; assays received for 38 (full) + 28 (gold‑only).
  • Multiple outcrop samples >2 g/t Au; highlight of 8.98 g/t Au.

  • Semi‑massive arsenopyrite veins yielded up to 3.72 g/t Au.

  • Rye Project – Diamond Drilling

  • 1,992 m drilled in six holes (RY‑25‑01 to RY‑25‑06).

  • Core currently being cut; samples shipped to Whitehorse lab; results expected in 6–7 weeks.

  • Mount Hinton Project – Rock Sampling & Trenching

  • 103 rock samples collected; full assay receipt.
  • Excavator trench (78 vein) returned 9.85 g/t Au over 1.30 m, intersecting a previous surface exposure of 24 g/t Au over 1.25 m.

  • Specimen from nearby pit yielded 20.6 g/t Au (semi‑massive arsenopyrite).

  • Mount Hinton Project – Diamond Drilling

  • 753 m drilled in two holes: MH‑25‑039 (355 m depth) and MH‑25‑040 (398 m depth).

  • Both intersected fault zones and intrusive dykes but returned no significant gold or silver results.

  • Assay Methodology & QA/QC

  • ALS Minerals performed all analyses; fire assay with atomic absorption for Au, ICP‑MS/ICP‑AES for multi‑element work.

  • Certified standards, blanks, duplicates inserted; all reported results passed QA/QC screening.

  • Geophysical Context

  • Both projects lie within the Yukon segment of the Tombstone Gold Belt, a region hosting multiple >4 Moz RIRGS deposits (e.g., Fort Knox, Eagle).

Notable Quotes

“The high‑grade rock samples and trench results reinforce the potential for significant sheeted‑vein gold mineralization at Rye and Mount Hinton,” – Richard Drechsler, President & CEO.
