Executive Summary

  • Windfall Geotek reports a major new mineralized discovery at TomaGold’s Berrigan Mine project, highlighted by a 98.5 m intercept of 5.75% ZnEq (1.34 g/t AuEq) including a high‑grade 4.90 m interval of 26.67% ZnEq (6.26 g/t AuEq).
  • The discovery validates Windfall’s AI targeting model that identified the “Berrigan Deep” zone, reducing the effective search area by ~99% and focusing drilling on 50 m × 50 m cells.
  • The zone remains open at depth, with further 2D/3D modeling and geophysical work planned to expand the target envelope.

Key Details

  • Major Intercept: Hole TOM‑25‑015 intersected 5.75% ZnEq (1.34 g/t AuEq) over 98.5 m; high‑grade sub‑interval of 26.67% ZnEq (6.26 g/t AuEq) over 4.90 m.
  • Depth: Intercept located at >450 m below surface, confirming deep mineralization potential (“Berrigan Deep”).
  • AI Targeting Performance: Windfall’s AI reduced the searchable area by 98–99% across the entire project, concentrating drilling on specific 50 m × 50 m cells that yielded the discovery.
  • Historical Data Utilized: AI model leveraged 112,704 historical assay results and evaluated 505,755 data cells covering 1,263.98 km² of historic exploration and SIGEOM datasets.
  • Target Set (June 2024): 11 high‑priority zinc targets identified; the current discovery validates one of these priority zones.
  • Open Mineralization: Several mineralized zones remain open in all directions; additional drilling planned to test intervals from –250 m to –500 m depth.
  • Next Steps: TomaGold will conduct 2D/3D geological modeling and integrate AI‑generated vectors with upcoming geophysical surveys to further delineate the deposit.
  • Qualified Person Review: Technical information approved by Grigor Heba, Principal Geologist, qualified under NI 43‑101.

Notable Quotes

“The results announced today by TomaGold are a ‘watershed moment’ for Windfall Geotek… Intersecting nearly 100 metres of mineralization in a zone like Berrigan Deep proves that our AI doesn’t just find targets—it finds deposits.” – Michel Fontaine, President & CEO, Windfall Geotek.
