56.5 metres grading 1.9 g/t gold, including higher-grade intervals.
Notable higher-grade intercepts include:
-
14.0 metres grading 5.1 g/t gold, 1.86% Pb, 2.10% Zn and 75.3 g/t Ag.
-
7.1 metres grading 8.13 g/t gold, 2.84% Pb, 3.07% Zn and 86.6 g/t Ag.

These results highlight the presence of a broad mineralized system hosting discrete higher-grade zones, supporting the potential for a robust and laterally continuous mineralized corridor.
Advancing the Talon System
The 2026 drill program is designed to advance the Talon Zone through a combination of systematic drilling to refine the geometry and grade of the Talon Zone and targeted testing of a down-plunge geophysical anomaly.
Initial drilling focuses on defining the geometry and continuity of mineralization from the strongest known intercepts, while the final hole is positioned to evaluate potential expansion of the system along a clearly defined structural and geophysical trend.
Results from this phase of drilling will guide follow-up exploration aimed at expanding the system along strike and down plunge.
Geological Context and Significance of the Talon Zone
Mineralization at the Talon Zone is structurally controlled and associated with shear zones occurring along the flanks of high chargeability and resistivity anomalies, interpreted to represent steep, west-plunging structures. Gold mineralization is typically associated with sulphide-bearing zones, including arsenopyrite, hosted within breccia and stockwork vein networks.
The Talon Zone forms part of a larger mineralized system developed along the Iron Mountain Fault Zone, a major regional structural corridor extending over tens of kilometres. This system exhibits characteristics consistent with a large-scale hydrothermal environment, supporting the potential for expansion along structurally controlled trends.
Historical drilling has confirmed a broad mineralized corridor hosting multiple higher-grade shoots within a wider envelope of mineralization. The zone remains open in multiple directions, supporting the potential for continued expansion as drilling progresses.
Key attributes of the Talon Zone include:
-
Broad mineralized corridor defined by historical drilling.
-
Structurally controlled system associated with a major regional fault.
