Core Viewpoint - Canadian Gold Corp. has initiated two independent field exploration programs at the Tartan West Property and the Hammond Reef South Property, aiming to expand its high-grade gold resources and leverage potential future infrastructure investments [1][12]. Hammond Reef South - The 2025 field exploration program aims to follow up on high-grade gold samples discovered in the previous year, with funding from a recently closed private placement of $385,000 [2]. - Last year's exploration identified a new high-grade gold zone with assays returning 35.4 gpt, 11.6 gpt, 7.1 gpt, and 2.9 gpt gold, located only 2 km from Agnico Eagle's Hammond Reef Deposit, which has over 5 million ounces of gold [3][4]. - The current program will include surface work to evaluate the lateral extent and continuity of the gold system, building on last year's strong results [4]. - A geophysical program is also planned to target areas with higher sulphide content, which correlate strongly with gold mineralization [5]. Tartan West Property - Field crews have commenced a ground reconnaissance program along the Tartan Shear Zone, focusing on detailed mapping, prospecting, and sampling to verify historic high-grade surface showings [6]. - Historic high-grade gold surface samples include results of 118 gpt and 53.5 gpt gold, with previous drilling yielding extremely high-grade results such as 595.2 gpt over 0.2 metres [7][8]. - The Tartan West program is seen as a crucial step towards leveraging future infrastructure investments over an expanded resource base, enhancing economies of scale [9][15].
