Getchell drills 19 m of 5.8 g/t Au at Fondaway Canyon

Executive Summary

• Drill hole FCG25‑36 intersected a high‑grade gold zone of 5.8 g/t Au over 19.0 m (including 12.9 g/t Au over 6.5 m), located 35 m beyond the existing mineral‑resource pit shell and fully open in all directions.
• The hole also confirmed continuation of the Colorado SW zone with additional intercepts of 1.4 g/t Au over 23.6 m and 2.2 g/t Au over 11.2 m, representing a 40‑m step‑out along strike to the northwest.
• Results suggest limestone/marble structural units may act as gold enrichment controls, encouraging further follow‑up drilling to potentially expand the open‑pit resource.

Key Details

• Hole Identification: FCG25‑36 – most northwesterly hole drilled to date on the Fondaway Canyon project.
• High‑Grade Interval: 5.8 g/t Au over 19.0 m; within this, a core of 12.9 g/t Au over 6.5 m.
• Additional Intercepts:
• 1.4 g/t Au over 23.6 m (Colorado SW zone)
• 2.2 g/t Au over 11.2 m (Colorado SW zone)
• Spatial Context: High‑grade zone lies 35 m beyond the current pit shell and 70 m northwest of previous drilling, extending strike by ~70 m.
• Lithology Insight: Gold mineralization occurs in contact with a limestone/marble block; the block itself shows 0.4 g/t Au over 14.8 m, indicating possible structural control on gold enrichment.
• Exploration Implication: Mineralization remains open along strike and dip; follow‑up drilling planned to test further northwest extension and assess potential pit expansion.
• Qualified Person: Patrick McLaughlin, P.Geo., NI 43‑101 qualified reviewer.

Notable Quotes

“The results demonstrate the continuation of mineralization unabated along strike to the northwest… the discovery of another high‑grade gold interval beyond the limits of previous drilling… this region is fully open for further expansion and bodes well for future mineral resource accretion.” – Mike Sieb, President, Getchell Gold Corp.

Virtual Presentation: Mr. Sieb will present these results at the John Tumazos Very Independent Research 2025 Virtual Conference on Wednesday, Dec 10 2025, 11 a.m.–12 p.m. ET (8 a.m.–9 a.m. PT).
