3.5m at 13.1 g/t AuEq Drilled at Great Pacific Gold's Wild Dog Project

GPAC · Price

Executive Summary

  • Great Pacific Gold released assay results from three new drill holes (WDG‑05, WDG‑06, WDG‑07) and announced that a fourth hole (WDG‑08) is in progress, expanding the known high‑grade gold‑copper mineralization at Wild Dog.
  • Significant intercepts include 3.5 m @ 13.1 g/t AuEq (4.9 g/t Au, 49.1 g/t Ag, 4.87 % Cu) in WDG‑06 and multiple high‑grade zones in WDG‑07 (up to 17.5 g/t AuEq).
  • The company plans to expand Phase 1 drilling based on these results, indicating a materially positive development for the project’s resource potential.

Key Details

  • Hole WDG‑05 – 3.0 m @ 2.4 g/t AuEq (2.0 g/t Au, 0.30 % Cu) from 72.0 m.
  • Hole WDG‑06 – 3.5 m @ 13.1 g/t AuEq (4.9 g/t Au, 49.1 g/t Ag, 4.87 % Cu) from 12.0 m; includes 0.6 m @ 25.3 g/t AuEq (7.2 g/t Au, 89 g/t Ag, 10.8 % Cu) from 13.7 m.
  • Hole WDG‑07 – Step‑out hole north of previous work:
  • 10.0 m @ 4.0 g/t AuEq (3.38 g/t Au, 12.1 g/t Ag, 0.31 % Cu) from 153.0 m;
  • 5.1 m @ 6.5 g/t AuEq (5.53 g/t Au, 14.8 g/t Ag, 0.53 % Cu) from 153.0 m;
  • 1.2 m @ 10.5 g/t AuEq (7.3 g/t Au, 105 g/t Ag, 1.28 % Cu) from 172.0 m;
  • 0.7 m @ 17.5 g/t AuEq (12.0 g/t Au, 178 g/t Ag, 2.18 % Cu) from 172.5 m.
  • Hole WDG‑08 – Currently drilling; intersected main structure ~30 m south of WDG‑07 intercept; assays pending.
  • Total Phase 1 program: planned 2,500 m across 16 holes over a 3 km strike length; 7 holes completed, 8th underway, additional holes (WDG‑09) planned.
  • Geophysical background: MobileMT survey identified a 15 km conductive trend to >1,000 m depth.
  • QA/QC: Core sampled by Intertek Minerals Ltd.; standards and blanks inserted per industry protocol; all assay batches to date passed QAQC.
  • Gold‑equivalent calculations use $2,000/oz Au, $27.50/oz Ag, $4.50/lb Cu with recoveries of 92.6 % (Au), 78.0 % (Ag), 94.0 % (Cu).

Notable Quotes

“The first results from our Phase 1 drill program… highlighted the high‑grade gold‑copper potential… WDG‑07 has extended the mineralized system 250 m to the north, and the continuity of the system in the Northern Sulphide area is being demonstrated with WDG‑08 intersecting the targeted structure ~30 meters south,” – Greg McCunn, CEO.
