Core Insights - West Point Gold Corp. has announced significant drill results from its Gold Chain Project in Arizona, indicating promising gold mineralization at depth beneath the Tyro Main Zone [1][3][10] Drilling Results - The recent drilling program covered approximately 500 meters of strike along the Central and Southern parts of the Tyro Main Zone, with a total of 957.2 meters drilled [1][10] - Drill hole GC25-61 returned 59.44 meters of 1.25 g/t Au, including 33.53 meters of 1.63 g/t Au, expanding the mineralized zone to depth [5][10] - Drill hole GC25-62 returned 68.58 meters of 0.90 g/t Au, including 15.24 meters of 2.89 g/t Au, indicating improving grades at depth [5][10] - Drill hole GC25-64 returned 36.58 meters of 0.91 g/t Au, also showing mineralization at depth [5][10] Geological Insights - The drilling has identified a broad zone of quartz-calcite-adularia veins and breccia that is consistently mineralized from surface exposures down to nearly 200 meters [5][10] - The mineralized zone remains open at depth and appears to extend northward toward the Frisco Graben, indicating potential for further exploration [5][10] Future Plans - The company is planning a follow-up drill campaign of 10,000 meters to further test the Tyro Main Zone at depth and along strike, as mineralization remains open [3][10] - Additional drilling is scheduled for Fall 2025 to continue following the mineralization to depth, with expectations of encountering higher-grade veins related to deeper boiling events [10]
