Core Viewpoint - West Point Gold Corp. announces strong ongoing drill results from its 10,000 metre drill program at the Gold Chain Project in Arizona, confirming the project's growing potential [1][3]. Drilling Program Overview - The initial phase of the 10,000-metre drill program has commenced, with 1,177 metres completed across 15 holes at the Tyro Main Zone, aimed at establishing a data foundation for a maiden resource estimate [2]. - The drill program is designed to define the vein's upper widths and grade over approximately 1 kilometre of strike [8]. Drill Results - Hole GC25-69 intersected 76.2 metres of 1.92 g/t Au, including 32.0 metres of 3.17 g/t Au, while Hole GC25-68 intersected 85.3 metres of 1.38 g/t Au, including 59.4 metres of 1.79 g/t Au [5][7]. - The results indicate a continuous and robust broad zone of gold-bearing quartz veins from the surface downward, with assay results pending for an additional 13 completed holes (approximately 1,000 metres) [5][8]. CEO Statement - The CEO, Quentin Mai, stated that the results demonstrate impressive grades and confirm the ongoing expansion of the Tyro Main Zone, linking high-grade surface sampling with deeper drilling [3]. Geological Context - The drilling has confirmed vein continuity between deeper holes and surface exposures, supporting the potential for further resource development [9][10]. Company Background - West Point Gold Corp. is focused on gold discovery and development at four projects in the Walker Lane Trend, with a particular emphasis on developing a maiden resource at the Gold Chain project in Arizona [13].
