Sasquatch Resources Corp. Reports Sampling Results from Slesse Gold Claims

SASQ · Price

Executive Summary

  • Sasquatch Resources reported high‑grade gold and copper assay results from its fall 2025 prospecting program on the Slesse Gold Claims property.
  • Ten of twelve Red Mountain Fault Zone samples exceeded 1 g/t Au, with two extreme values of 135.5 g/t Au and 700 g/t Au; eight samples exceeded 5 % Cu, the highest being 22.8 % Cu (also containing up to 19.85 g/t Au).
  • The company plans further spring‑time exploration focused on the Red Mountain Fault Zone, leveraging historic mining proximity and potential waste‑rock resources.

Key Details

  • Property: Slesse Gold Claims – 14 mineral claims (~1,989 ha) south of Sardis, BC; 11 claims acquired 27 Nov 2025, remaining 3 pending registration (30–90 days).
  • Sampling program: 30 surface samples from Red Mountain Fault Zone, Glacier Zone, and McFarlene Creek Zone.
  • Red Mountain Fault Zone results
  • 10/12 samples > 1 g/t Au; top grades: 135.5 g/t Au, 700 g/t Au.
  • 8/12 samples > 5 % Cu; top grades: 22.8 % Cu, 14.65 % Cu (all with elevated Au 3.54–19.85 g/t).
  • One sample without anomalous Cu contained 121 g/t Ag and 135.5 g/t Au.
  • Historical context: Adjacent to historic Red Mountain Gold Mine (1913‑1942) which produced ~80,000 t at 17 g/t Au. No resource estimate implied for Slesse property.
  • Future work: Spring exploration will concentrate on the Red Mountain Fault Zone and extend northward; potential assessment of waste rock from historic Mountain Goat Mines.
  • Qualified Person: Darcy Vis, B.Sc., P.Geo., NI 43‑101 qualified, reviewed all technical data.
  • QA/QC: Samples assayed by ALS Geochemistry Labs (ISO/IEC 17025:2017); methods included ME‑MS61, Au‑AA25, Au‑GRA21, Ag‑OG62, ME‑OG62, Cu‑OG62; standard chain‑of‑custody procedures followed.

Notable Quotes

  • Peter Smith, CEO: “Our fall prospecting and sampling expedition was a great success… the Red Mountain Fault Zone looks to have some truly outstanding potential… there could be economic potential even at a small scale applying ore‑sorting processes.”
