Dryden Gold Reports New Gold Discovery at the Hyndman Project High-Grade Channel Sample Assays Leads to a 2026 Drill Program
Executive Summary
- Dryden Gold reported high‑grade surface channel assay results from the Hyndman project, including a standout interval of 23.32 g/t Au over 2.80 m (with sub‑intervals of 24.79 g/t Au over 1.50 m and 36.90 g/t Au over 0.70 m).
- The results support a positive drill‑test decision and confirm the company’s fully funded 2026 exploration program for Hyndman, moving the target toward “drill‑ready” status.
- Management highlighted the similarity of Hyndman mineralization to NexGold’s Goldlund Deposit and emphasized the extensive infrastructure and larger strike potential at Hyndman.
Key Details
- Assay Highlights – Hyndman South (Intrusion‑Hosted)
- DHY‑CH‑045: 23.32 g/t Au over 2.80 m (3.90–6.70 m)
-
Sub‑intervals within DHY‑CH‑045:
- 24.79 g/t Au over 1.50 m (4.20–5.70 m)
- 36.90 g/t Au over 0.70 m (5.00–5.70 m)
-
Additional Channel Results
- DHY‑CH‑063 (Mafic hosted, Hyndman South): 2.37 g/t Au over 1.00 m
- DHY‑CH‑001 (Intrusion‑hosted, Hyndman North): 1.66 g/t Au over 1.00 m
- DHY‑CH‑059 (Mafic hosted, Hyndman North): 2.12 g/t Au over 0.70 m
- DHY‑CH‑080: 1.85 g/t Au over 1.00 m
-
DHY‑CH‑126: 1.10 g/t Au over 1.00 m
-
Program Context
- Channel sampling conducted as a surface “continuous sample” method, providing drill‑hole‑like continuity across geological features.
-
Results are part of the summer channeling program feeding into the fully funded 2026 exploration plan.
-
Geological Interpretation
- Target lies within a ~4–5 km long, 400 m wide diorite intrusion intersected by shear zones containing quartz‑veinlets and gold‑bearing structures.
-
Mineralization interpreted to be hosted in shear‑related veins similar to the Goldlund Deposit.
-
Management Commentary
- President Maura Kolb: Emphasized Hyndman as one of four main objectives for the 2025 campaign and noted upcoming soil‑till assays to vector additional targets.
-
CEO Trey Wasser: Highlighted larger strike potential versus Goldlund, excellent infrastructure (highway, rail, power), and ongoing integration of mapping, prospecting, and channel results ahead of drilling.
-
Upcoming Activities
- Planned drill‑ready status for Hyndman with field work to commence in 2026.
- Management will present updates at the 121 Global Online Conference (Oct 14‑15 2025).
Notable Quotes
“Advancing the Hyndman target was one of our four main objectives for the 2025 Exploration Campaign… The mineralization that we are observing at Hyndman appears to be very similar to the Goldlund Deposit held by NexGold.” – President Maura Kolb and CEO Trey Wasser.
