Executive Summary

  • Fancamp Exploration reports high‑grade gold grab and trench samples (up to 7 g/t Au) from the McIntyre Brook prospect in New Brunswick, confirming a significant gold‑copper discovery potential.
  • Soil geochemical surveys identified strong gold‑in‑soil anomalies that align with electromagnetic conductors across a three‑kilometre strike length.
  • An extensive drill program is slated for fall 2025 to systematically test the newly defined priority targets at McIntyre Brook.

Key Details

  • Prospecting and trenching (May–June 2025) plus soil geochemical survey (July 2025) extended the favourable horizon of Area 2 (McIntyre Brook) by a minimum strike length of 3 km.
  • Highest grab sample assay: 7 g/t Au; top trench assays: 6.1 g/t Au and 6.95 g/t Au (Trench T25‑1).
  • Soil survey highlighted gold‑in‑soil anomalies that serve as reliable vectors for advanced work in the region.
  • Historical context: 2024 HeliTEM airborne survey, prior trenching, and chip sampling identified a gold‑bearing rhyolitic horizon with at least 200 m strike extension and up to 9 m thickness.
  • Nearby regional data: 275 ppb Au stream sediment downstream from Zone 1 (highest value from the 1981 New Brunswick Geological Survey program).
  • The McIntyre Brook target sits within the Wapske formation, bounded by the McIntyre and Ramsay Brook faults, and is adjacent to Puma Exploration’s Williams Brook Lynx showing (5.50 g/t Au over 50.15 m).
  • Joint venture structure: Acadian Gold – a 50/50 partnership between Fancamp Exploration Ltd. and Lode Gold Resources Inc., covering 445 km² (111 km² McIntyre Brook + 334.5 km² Riley Brook).
  • Planned drill program (Fall 2025) will focus on three principal target areas: electromagnetic anomaly zone, McIntyre Brook prospect, and the northwest area aligned with the Williams Brook Lynx showing.

Notable Quotes

“The latest results from McIntyre Brook confirm the exceptional potential of Acadian Gold. The combination of high‑grade assays from grab and chip samples, coincident gold‑in‑soil anomalies, and strong electromagnetic conductors along a three‑kilometre strike length all point to a robust mineralized system.” – Francois Auclair, Vice‑President of Exploration, Fancamp Exploration Ltd.
