Executive Summary

  • Golden Cariboo Resources reported intersecting significant gold mineralization from surface in drill hole QGQ25‑25 on its Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine property.
  • Notable intercepts include 0.42 g/t Au over 47.01 m, a deeper zone of 0.76 g/t Au over 20.45 m (starting at 324.88 m), and a terminal interval of 1.00 g/t Au over 1.91 m.
  • The results extend the Halo zone strike length and support continued winter drilling, indicating an active exploration program in the Cariboo Gold Corridor.

Key Details

  • Hole QGQ25‑25 (Halo zone step‑out):
  • 0.42 g/t Au over 47.01 m from surface.
  • Broader anomalous interval: 0.26 g/t Au over 190.2 m.
  • Deeper mineralization: 0.76 g/t Au over 20.45 m starting at 324.88 m depth.

  • Terminal intercept: 1.00 g/t Au over 1.91 m (hole ended in mineralization).

  • Nearby Hole QGQ24‑20: Previously returned 0.99 g/t Au and 9.77 g/t Ag over 236.88 m, confirming high‑grade halo zone potential.

  • Hole QGC25‑28: Currently being extended to greater depth; early core shows extensive quartz‑carbonate veining (photo provided).

  • QA/QC Protocols:

  • 5% of samples are blanks, standards, and coarse reject duplicates.
  • All drilling is NQ core, logged, split, and sent to MSALABS (Prince George) for analysis.

  • Analytical methods include aqua regia digestion with ICP‑AES for 35 elements and PhotonAssay™ for Au/Ag, addressing nugget effect concerns.

  • Qualified Person Review: Technical information reviewed and approved by Jean Pautler, P.Geo., a Qualified Person under NI 43‑101.

  • CEO Comment (Frank Callaghan): Emphasized surface intercepts, strike extension of the Halo zone, year‑round drilling capability due to excellent infrastructure, and an “active year” outlook for the Cariboo Gold Corridor.

Notable Quotes

“We continue to drive forward with intersections of mineralization from surface, extending the deposit along strike at our Halo zone… We’re excited to be drilling in the winter and look forward to an active year in the Cariboo Gold Corridor.” – Frank Callaghan, President & CEO
