Drill Results
Boreal Gold samples 9.7 g/t Au at Fay Lake

BGLD · Price
Executive Summary
- Boreal Gold Inc. reports encouraging gold assay results from trench No. 6 on the Fay Lake property, including high-grade samples up to 9.7 g/t Au, and announces a new gold discovery on the eastern extension of the Sunrise grid with assays exceeding 3.0 g/t Au.
- The company outlines its exploration strategy for the North Star/Gold Rock property, which was optioned from Voyageur Mineral Explorers Corp., focusing on infill and down-plunge drilling to expand the Gold Rock vein and define a resource estimate.
- Planned activities include grid refurbishing, geological mapping, and sampling in the spring and summer of 2026, with the ultimate goal of completing a NI 43-101 technical report and advancing toward a prefeasibility study.
Key Details
- Koscielny Lake Results (Trench No. 6):
- Nine samples collected from a 1.5-to-2-metre-wide quartz vein on an island.
- Six of nine samples returned assays over 1.0 g/t Au.
- Notable high-grade intercepts: Sample 298802 assayed 5.7 g/t Au; Sample 298804 assayed 9.7 g/t Au.
- Screen metallic analysis was used due to the presence of coarse gold.
- Historical context: Previous work by A.L. Parres (1950) intersected mineralized quartz with values up to 11.81 g/t Au over one metre.
- Fay Lake New Discovery:
- Two quartz vein samples (27497 and 27498) collected near the eastern shore of Fay Lake.
- Both samples returned gold assays greater than 3,000 ppm (3.0 g/t Au) via fire assay.
- Samples contain vuggy pyrite; screen metallic analysis is pending to capture coarse gold.
- Location is proximal to an undrilled airborne electromagnetic conductor with a coincident magnetic anomaly.
- North Star/Gold Rock Property Context:
- Property optioned from Voyageur Mineral Explorers Corp. (April 17, 2025).
- Historical investment: Over $9 million spent since 2003.
- Historical drilling: 135 holes at North Star and 143 holes at Gold Rock.
- Historical metallurgy: Lakefield testing established 85% gold recovery by gravity alone.
- Historical grades: Average grade from blast holes and trench faces was over 0.35 oz/t Au (Foran Mining, 2003).
- Underground samples from 2004 muck pile averaged 0.29 oz/t Au (north sill) and 0.27 oz/t Au (south sill).
- Planned Program (Spring/Summer 2026):
- Grid Refurbishing: Completing line cutting from Line 46N to Line 59N (Baseline 46E to Tie Line 59E); remaining lines to be completed in spring/summer 2026.
- Mapping & Sampling: Remapping grids from 59+50N south to 46N, emphasizing the section between North Star and Gold Rock deposits.
- Drilling: Selective infill and down-plunge drilling on the Gold Rock vein planned to expand the vein along strike and at depth.
- Objective: Complete a resource estimate and NI 43-101 compliant technical report to warrant a prefeasibility study.
- Qualified Person: Stephen L. Masson, MSc, PGeo, reviewed and approved the technical disclosure.
