GGX Gold plans 2026 drilling at Gold Drop

Executive Summary

• GGX Gold Corp. announced its 2026 exploration program for the 100%-owned Gold Drop property in the Greenwood mining camp, British Columbia.
• The program involves up to 2,200 metres of surface drilling to test extensions of the high-grade C.O.D. vein, the projected extension of the Dentonia system at depth, and multiple parallel vein targets including North Star, Highland Valley, Ken, and Amandy.
• The release highlights historic high-grade intercepts from the C.O.D. vein (129 g/t Au, 1,154 g/t Ag, 353 g/t Te over 7.28m) and provides detailed historical production and sampling data for the various targets to contextualize the upcoming drilling.

Key Details

• Drilling Scope: Up to 2,200 metres of surface drilling planned.
• Primary Targets:
  • C.O.D. Vein: Targeting extensions of previously drilled high-grade mineralization.
  • Dentonia System: Testing the projected extension of the Dentonia vein at depth beneath the Gold Drop mine.
  • Parallel Veins: Systematic testing of North Star, Highland Valley, Ken, and Amandy vein targets.
• Historic C.O.D. Vein Intercepts:
  • Hole COD18-67: 129 g/t Au, 1,154 g/t Ag, 353 g/t Te over 7.28 metres.
  • Hole COD18-70: 107.5 g/t Au, 880 g/t Ag, 99 g/t Te over 6.90 metres.
• Dentonia Vein Context:
  • Traced on surface for 1.5 km and to a depth of ~200 metres.
  • Total historic production: 43,354 oz Au and 258,973 oz Ag from 124,644 tonnes.
• Gold Drop & North Star Mines:
  • Total historic production: 840 oz Au and 2,426 oz Ag from 6,513 tonnes.
  • Gold Drop vein traced for >700m strike length; pinches/swells from stringers to >3.5m width.
  • North Star vein chip sampling (2013): Averages of 8.78 g/t Au and 47.0 g/t Ag over 0.36m width (range 0.08–81.0 g/t Au).
• Ken Vein:
  • Located ~860m east of Gold Drop vein.
  • 2017 grab sample: 297 g/t Au.
  • 2020 chip sample: 0.12 g/t Au.
• Highland Valley Vein:
  • Located ~1.8 km from North Star mine.
  • 1985 historic sampling: 13.4 g/t Au over 1.2m.
  • 2020 grab samples: 4.76 g/t Au and 2.57 g/t Au.
• Amandy Vein:
  • Historic production (1936–1941): 1,059 tonnes grading 10.04 g/t Au and 185.18 g/t Ag.
  • 2020 rock chip sample: 23.5 g/t Au, 437 g/t Ag, 198 g/t Te.
• Technical Notes:
  • Analyses conducted by ALS Global (North Vancouver).
  • Gold determined by fire assay (50g sample weight, AA finish) or metallics sieve method (Au-SCR24).
  • Other metals analyzed via 48-element package (4-acid digestion, ICP-MS).
  • Dr. Mathew Ball, PGeo, is the Qualified Person approving the technical information.
  • Historical records are unverified by a qualified person.

Notable Quotes

• "The exceptional historic grades from the C.O.D. vein -- including intercepts of 129 grams per tonne gold and over 1,100 grams per tonne silver -- demonstrate the calibre of mineralization present at Gold Drop," said Barry Brown, chief executive officer of GGX Gold. "Our 2026 drill program is designed to build on these results, target the projected extension of the Dentonia system at depth and systematically test multiple parallel veins across the property. We believe this year's work has the potential to significantly advance our understanding of a larger, district-scale mineralizing event."
