Bathurst Metals Announces Completion of Geophysical Surveys at the Peerless Project, Gold Bridge Mining Camp, British Columbia
Bathurst advances peerless drilling plans amid management transition and asset consolidation.

Executive Summary
- Bathurst Metals Corp. completed detailed geophysical surveys at its Peerless Gold-Silver Project in British Columbia's Gold Bridge Mining Camp.
- The survey covered 50 line-kilometres of ground magnetometer and 25 line-kilometres of VLF-EM surveying on 25-metre spaced lines.
- Objectives included defining ultramafic units, identifying structural controls, and delineating hydrothermal alteration zones associated with gold mineralization.
- Data interpretation will directly inform a planned Phase 1 diamond drilling program targeting the Alpha and Beta Zones.
- The company is expanding exploration to the nearby Merry May Project, planning 100-200 soil samples and similar geophysical surveys.
- Permit expansions are being evaluated to include newly identified geochemical and geophysical anomalies northeast of previously tested zones.
- Historical context notes an inaugural drill program in February 2024 intersected 5.1 g/t gold over 6.3 metres within a targeted structural corridor.
- Qualified Person Lorne Warner, P.Geo., reviewed and approved all technical information per NI 43-101.
Material Impact
- The announcement represents a standard, expected progression in the company's grassroots exploration workflow. Geophysical surveys are a routine precursor to diamond drilling and do not constitute a discovery or resource update.
- The news aligns with prior announcements, specifically the July 2025 application for a second drill permit and the September 2025 acquisition of the Merry May project.
- No new financial metrics, capital raises, or strategic partnerships are disclosed. The market likely already priced in the imminent drilling campaign given the explicit permit applications and survey completions in prior months.
- The update is incremental and execution-focused. It confirms management is advancing the exploration plan but does not alter the fundamental risk profile or valuation of the exploration-stage entity.
