Cabral Gold Drills 25m @ 7.5 g/t Gold Including 10m @ 17.1 g/t Gold as Part of Pre-Production Infill Drilling, MG Gold Deposit, Cuiu Cuiu Gold District, Brazil

Cabral’s pre-production infill drilling validates high-grade oxide resources ahead of the Q4 2026 heap-leach ramp-up at its project.

By The Northwire Desk — AI Analysis Jun 11, 2026 · 06:31 CBR · 0.84 Cabral Gold Inc.
Executive Summary
  • Cabral Gold announced assay results from 38 additional reverse circulation (RC) infill drill holes at the MG starter pit within the Cuiú Cuiú Gold District, Brazil.
  • The standout intercept, RC737, returned 25m @ 7.47 g/t Au from surface, including 10m @ 17.09 g/t Au and a high-grade 2m @ 69.3 g/t Au interval.
  • The infill drilling program is now complete with 166 holes totaling 5,767 meters. Assay results have been released for 124 holes, with the final 42 infill holes pending.
  • Results confirm consistent, high-grade gold-in-oxide mineralization near surface, validating the geological model and demonstrating the presence of significant near-surface resources amenable to heap leaching.
  • The program was designed to de-risk the Year 1 mine plan and upgrade the oxide resource ahead of planned commercial heap leach production in Q4 2026.
Material Impact
  • The news represents a routine, incremental follow-up to the ongoing pre-production infill drilling campaign.
  • Results are fully in line with previous expectations and consistent with prior infill releases (e.g., May 26 and April 7 announcements).
  • There are no new surprises, material changes to project economics, or timeline adjustments. The data simply reinforces the resource model and reduces execution risk for the initial mining phase.
  • Given that construction is already 70% complete and plant commissioning has been accelerated to June 2026, the market has likely already priced in the successful completion of the infill program.
  • The impact is positive but incremental, serving as a confidence-building step rather than a catalyst for immediate price appreciation.
