A.I.S. Resources Announces Final Assay Results from New Brunswick Projects

AIS · Price
Executive Summary
- A.I.S. Resources announced overlimit assay results from 23 resubmitted grab and chip rock samples across its New Brunswick projects, confirming anomalous multi-element mineralization.
- Highlights include copper grades up to 32,800 ppm (3.28%), gold up to 33.8 g/t, silver up to 314 ppm, and antimony up to 9,600 ppm, validating multiple mineralization styles.
- Results support district-scale exploration potential and will drive the next phase of technical work, including target generation and an upcoming drill program with a contracted local driller.
Key Details
- Sample Submission & Lab: 23 grab and chip rock samples resubmitted to Activation Laboratories Ltd. (Actlabs) after exceeding upper detection limits in preliminary analysis of 38 samples.
- Copper (Cu): Grades range from 3.5 ppm to 32,800 ppm (3.28% Cu); eight samples returned over 1% Cu.
- Gold (Au): Grades range from <5 ppb to 33.8 g/t; two samples from the Little Lepreau prospect returned 33.8 g/t and 9.97 g/t Au.
- Silver (Ag): Grades range from 0.02 ppm to 314 ppm; four samples exceeded 100 ppm Ag (one from Prince of Wales, three from Little Lepreau).
- Antimony (Sb): Grades range from 2 ppm to 9,600 ppm; six samples exceeded 500 ppm Sb (one from Prince of Wales, four from Little Lepreau, one from Scott Falls Dam).
- Molybdenum (Mo): Grades range from 0.91 ppm to 3,070 ppm; three samples from Little Lepreau show elevated concentrations.
- Rhenium (Re): Grades range from <0.005 ppm to 5.23 ppm.
- Cobalt (Co): Grades range from 1.3 ppm to 1,180 ppm.
- Geological Interpretation: Results support multiple mineralization styles, including IOCG-style, intrusive-related magmatic Cu-Au, and structurally controlled Cu-Ag-Au. True widths and continuity remain unknown at this early stage.
- Next Steps & Drilling: Ongoing prospecting, mapping, and sampling continue. Results will be announced as available. Data will be integrated with historical/current geophysics to develop an upcoming drill program; a local driller has already been contracted.
- QA/QC & Methodology: Samples prepared at Actlabs Fredericton, analyzed at Ancaster. Gold analyzed via fire assay/Gravity (FA-GRA) with atomic absorption finish. Multi-element analysis via total digestion ICP-MS/OES. Lab uses certified reference materials, blanks, and control samples. Company and Qualified Person are reviewing QA/QC prior to final interpretation.
- Project Portfolio: Covers Saint John Project (IOCG-style targets), Pocologan Project (~21.5 sq km, Cu-Au-Ag), and Frenchmans Creek Project (district-scale Cu-Au-Ag). All remain in early-stage exploration with no defined mineral resources.
Notable Quotes
- Marc Enright-Morin, CEO: “The overlimit assay results have exceeded our expectations and represent an important milestone in advancing our New Brunswick projects. These results provide further evidence of a highly mineralized system and reinforce our belief in the district-scale potential of the properties. Although exploration is still in the early stages and results remain selective, the data supports accelerating our technical work programs to generate and prioritize high-quality targets for follow-up exploration.”
