🤩 Aztec Strikes Gold

Aztec Minerals Corp. (TSXV: AZT | OTCQB: AZZTF) revealed results from nine reverse circulation drill holes at its Tombstone Project in Arizona, USA.

Highlights:

• 97.50 metres of 1.06 g/t gold and 16.08 g/t silver, including:

  • 18.30 metres of 4.60 g/t gold and 52.49 g/t silver.

  • 6.10 metres of 12.17 g/t gold and 69.08 g/t silver.

• 88.40 metres of 1.42 g/t gold and 14.58 g/t silver, including:

  • 12.20 metres of 6.38 g/t gold and 33.93 g/t silver.

  • 6.10 metres of 12.23 g/t gold and 56.28 g/t silver.

• 13.70 metres of 1.50 g/t gold and 23.56 g/t silver, including:

  • 7.60 metres of 2.64 g/t gold and 40.72 g/t silver.

The first drilling in the North Extension Zone confirms that shallow oxide gold-silver mineralisation extends beyond the previously defined footprint and remains open to the north and at depth.

With assays pending from 11 additional step-out holes, Aztec continues to advance its maiden resource estimate while testing the growing scale of the Tombstone system.

🫢 Perestroika Hits Gold

Val-d'Or Mining Corporation (TSXV: VZZ | OTCQB: VDOMF) reported initial drill results from the Perestroika Prospect in Québec, Canada.

Highlights:

• 84.00 metres of 3.08 g/t gold.

• 21.30 metres of 3.07 g/t gold.

The first assay results confirm broad, high-grade gold mineralisation within the Perestroika corridor, supporting the model of stacked gold-bearing quartz-ankerite veins over a strike length exceeding 500 metres.

With thousands of assays still pending, the 2026 drill programme continues to demonstrate the project's potential for further resource growth.

👏 More Gold

Galway Metals Inc. (TSXV: GWM | OTCQB: GAYMF) announced results from 14 diamond drill holes at the Southwest Deposit within its Clarence Stream Gold Project in New Brunswick, Canada.

Highlights:

• 48.00 metres of 2.60 g/t gold, including:

  • 3.00 metres of 9.90 g/t gold and 2.00 metres of 21.30 g/t gold.

• 31.00 metres of 1.70 g/t gold, including:

  • 5.00 metres of 4.30 g/t gold and 1.00 metre of 14.00 g/t gold.

• 5.00 metres of 5.30 g/t gold, including:

  • 1.00 metre of 22.40 g/t gold.

The infill drilling confirmed broad, continuous gold mineralisation within the Southwest Deposit, with several intercepts exceeding the current resource model.

The results support potential expansion of mineralised zones within the existing pit shell and strengthen confidence as Galway advances the Clarence Stream Preliminary Economic Assessment.
