Great Pacific Gold Provides Drilling Update at Hampore Target at Kesar and Commences Project-Wide Airborne Magnetics Survey

Core Insights - Great Pacific Gold Corp. has commenced drilling at the Hampore target within the Kesar Project in Papua New Guinea, alongside a Mobile Magnetotelluric (MobileMT) geophysical survey to refine geological targets for future exploration and drilling [1][3][12] Drilling and Geological Insights - Initial drilling at Hampore is aimed at testing beneath a high-grade outcrop, with surface samples showing exceptional gold values of 110 g/t and 93.3 g/t [4] - The MobileMT survey has flown approximately 450 line-kilometers to date, which is 52% complete, to inform further drilling [4][10] - The East Vein System at Hampore is part of an intermediate-sulfidation polymetallic lode system, indicating strong vertical mineralization potential with well-defined metal zonation [5][6] Mineralization Characteristics - Gold mineralization occurs in two styles: bonanza free gold in arsenopyrite-rich quartz veins and electrum-base metal veins within sulfide-rich breccias [5] - The best gold grades, up to 110 g/t, are found in hydrothermal breccias, suggesting late-stage mineralization [6] Airborne Magnetics Survey - The MobileMT survey will cover 877 line-kilometers across a 126 km² area, focusing on major structural corridors and mineralized trends at Hampore [10] - The survey integrates high-resolution magnetics and very-low-frequency EM data for a multi-layered interpretation of the subsurface [10] Future Exploration Plans - Data from the MobileMT survey will undergo advanced processing and 3D inversion modeling, with preliminary results expected within 15-20 days of completion [11] - The integration of airborne geophysics with geochemical and structural models aims to enhance exploration frameworks and target deeper extensions of known high-grade gold zones [12]
