A 500%+ Metal, a Historic Tungsten Zone, and a Drill Program About to Test Both

Northcliff secures a fully funded 2026 drill program at its Magno project as tungsten prices surge 500%.

Executive Summary
  • GoldHaven Resources Corp. announced a fully funded 2026 diamond drill program targeting the historic Kuhn tungsten zone on its 100%-owned Magno Project in British Columbia.
  • The program aims to verify and expand a historically defined tungsten-bearing skarn system, previously outlined at ~616,500 tonnes grading 0.48% WO3 across four mineralized lenses.
  • Historical drill intercepts include high-grade intervals up to 4.0m at 1.32% WO3 and 0.26% MoS2.
  • Drilling strategy focuses on twinning historical holes, testing lateral/vertical extensions, and integrating recent airborne magnetic and QMAGT geophysics.
  • Tungsten benchmark price (APT) has surged >500% since China's Feb 2025 export controls, reaching ~US$2,250/t.
  • The Qualified Person, Raymond Wladichuk, P.Geo., is noted as non-independent under NI 43-101.
  • Historical Context Note: The provided historical news releases pertain to Northcliff Resources Ltd., a peer in the tungsten sector. Northcliff has progressed from securing $15M US DoD and $8.2M NRCan funding (Nov 2025) to amending loan facilities and advancing pre-construction engineering (May 2026). This sector-wide advancement validates the macro tailwinds for GoldHaven, though it does not directly track GoldHaven's historical projections.
Material Impact
  • The announcement is Routine - Positive. It confirms the company is executing its planned exploration program as expected.
  • The "fully funded" status is a key positive, eliminating near-term dilution risk and demonstrating financial discipline.
  • The >500% surge in tungsten prices provides a strong macro tailwind, but this is a market-wide factor rather than company-specific news.
  • No material change to project economics, resource estimates, or financing structure. The drill program is a standard exploration step.
  • The news is in line with previous expectations for an exploration-stage company advancing a historical target. No surprises or material deviations.
