NovaRed Mining Interprets Multiple Porphyry Copper-Gold Targets Above Large Interpreted Batholith at Wilmac(CSE: NRED) (OTCQB: NREDF) NovaRed Mining Inc. reported a new geological interpretation of its Wilmac Copper-Gold Project in British Columbia's Quesnel porphyry belt. The regional magnetic anomaly underlying the Project is interpreted to potentially represent a multi-phase batholith approximately 18 kilometres in diameter, segmented into three domains: Copper Mountain (13.1 km), Whipsaw (12.7 km), and Lamont (8.7 km), each about 5.7 km wide. The total area underlain by the Total Magnetic Intensity anomaly is a minimum of 188 km2, with approximately 46 km2 captured by the property, and the Project covers 16,078 hectares. The 2024 3DIP/AMT survey on the Lamont grid penetrated to approximately 1,500 metres and covered approximately 4.7 square kilometres, or about three percent of the Project's area. Historical drilling in the Trojan-Condor Corridor included four holes (WS14-001 to WS14-004) totaling approximately 728 metres at depths between 135 and 215 metres. Copper-in-soil values reached a maximum of 1,125 ppm, correlating with geophysical anomalies. The company projects that, subject to receipt of the required permit and financing, its proposed drilling program, unlikely to occur prior to 2027, would be designed to test selected targets at depth where geological and geophysical evidence suggests copper-gold mineralization could potentially be concentrated. Tudor Gold Discovers New Copper-Gold Porphyry System and Confirms Gold-Silver Epithermal Trend Within Treaty Creek's Perfectstorm Zone(TSXV: TUD) Tudor Gold Corp. announced results from the first four holes drilled at the Perfectstorm Zone as part of the 2026 Treaty Creek Project Exploration Program, leading to the discovery of a new copper-gold-silver-molybdenum porphyry system (the "PSP Zone") and confirmation of a previously identified gold-silver-dominant epithermal system (the "PSE Zone"). The Treaty Creek Project is located in the heart of the Golden Triangle of Northwestern British Columbia and is 80%-owned by Tudor Gold. Drillhole PS-26-15 intersected 4.59 g/t gold and 0.67 g/t silver over 10.50 meters, including 11.15 g/t gold and 0.84 g/t silver over 3.00 meters, and 0.24 g/t gold, 2.11 g/t silver, 0.21% copper, and 50.76 ppm molybdenum over 82.90 meters. The Goldstorm Deposit at Treaty Creek hosts Indicated Mineral Resources of 24.9 million ounces of gold, 148.7 million ounces of silver, and 3.048 billion pounds of copper (912.3 million tonnes grading 0.85 g/t gold, 5.07 g/t silver, and 0.15% copper) and Inferred Mineral Resources of 2.6 million ounces of gold, 7.2 million ounces of silver, and 67.9 million pounds of copper (21.8 million tonnes grading 3.64 g/t gold, 10.22 g/t silver, and 0.14% copper). A permit application has been filed for approval to construct an underground ramp for access to drill the high-grade gold SC-1 Zone. The company states that a Preliminary Economic Assessment on placing the Goldstorm Deposit in production as an underground mine is now underway.
