Great Pacific Gold Intercepts 38.40m @ 2.23 g/t AuEq at Kavasuki Wild Dog Project
High-Grade Intercepts at Kavasuki Validate Structural Model as Great Pacific Gold Shifts Focus to District-Scale PNG Targets
The most recent news (March 25, 2026) reports significant drill results from the Kavasuki target at the Wild Dog Project in Papua New Guinea. Key intercepts include 38.40m @ 2.23 g/t AuEq (including high-grade internal zones of 10.31 g/t and 16.24 g/t AuEq). This follows the March 3rd announcement of the first Kavasuki hole (KVH-01) which returned 58.9m @ 2.50 g/t AuEq. The company has successfully validated a revised west-dipping structural model, which is critical for future targeting. Additionally, hole KVH-04 has intersected 60m of visible mineralization with assays pending.
- Technical Validation: The transition from "discovery" to "structural validation" is a major de-risking step. By confirming the west-dipping model, the company reduces the risk of "blind" drilling and increases the probability of hitting high-grade shoots.
- Continuity and Scale: Intersecting broad zones (38m to 60m) of silica flooding and brecciation suggests a robust, large-scale epithermal system rather than isolated narrow veins.
- Operational Momentum: The company is successfully managing two rigs across multiple high-priority targets (Kavasuki and Kasie Ridge), showing efficient use of the $16.9M raised in mid-2025.
- Comparison to Expectations: These results are in line with or slightly exceed the "Routine - Positive" expectations set by earlier 2026 updates, moving the project toward a potential resource definition phase.
Great Pacific Gold (GPAC) is focused on high-grade gold-copper deposits in Papua New Guinea. Its flagship is the Wild Dog Project, which features a 15km structural corridor. The project includes the past-producing Sinivit mine. GPAC is using modern geophysics (MobileMT) and LiDAR to identify targets beneath volcanic ash cover that previous explorers missed.
