Decade conducts reconnaissance program at N Mitchell

Executive Summary

• Decade Resources reported discovery of mineralized quartz veins, gossanous outcrops and porphyry‑type intrusive rocks at the North Mitchell property in BC’s Golden Triangle.
• Multiple chip and grab samples have been submitted for assay; results are pending and will guide 2025 follow‑up work including detailed mapping and potential drilling.
• The newly identified exposures lie within ~3 km of Tudor Gold’s high‑grade drill intercept (102.15 m @ 1.28 g/t AuEq), suggesting proximity to a potentially significant epithermal gold‑silver system with a porphyry source.

Key Details

• Geological observations:
• Strong silicification, iron‑oxide staining and quartz veining on several gossanous outcrops.
• Grey saccharoidal quartz adjacent to white quartz veins hosting fine‑grained sphalerite and galena – mineral assemblage commonly linked to gold‑silver systems in the region.
• Porphyritic diorite‑granodiorite intrusions identified, indicating possible copper‑gold porphyry potential at depth.
• Sampling program (2025 field season):
• Systematic chip sampling and grab samples collected from veined/altered outcrops and float trains.
• Samples submitted to an accredited lab for multi‑element geochemical analysis, including fire assay for Au and ICP‑MS for Ag, Cu, Pb, Zn and pathfinder elements.
• Assay status: All samples are in laboratory queue; rush assays have been requested to inform immediate next steps.
• Proximity to known mineralization: New exposures are <3 km from Tudor Gold’s Perfect Storm zone drill hole PS‑23‑10 (102.15 m @ 1.28 g/t AuEq).
• Future work plan: Pending assay results, Decade intends detailed geological mapping and evaluation of drill targets to test the epithermal Au‑Ag system hypothesis.

Notable Quotes

“Our 2025 reconnaissance program has identified a highly prospective target area at North Mitchell,” said Ed Kruchkowski, President of Decade Resources. “The combination of veining, alteration and sulphide mineralization significantly advances our understanding of the property. We are eager to receive assays and plan follow‑up work, including detailed mapping and potential drill targeting.”
