  • The 2026 drilling program has completed 58 holes totaling 27,770m toward a 50,000m annual target.
  • Metallurgical testwork released June 22, 2026, confirmed 93-95% gold recoveries using a standard CIL circuit.
  • An updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) integrating the Wenot open pit and Gilt underground deposits is scheduled for Q3 2026.
Material Impact
