Sirios Discovers High-Potential Gold Halo in Western Sector of Aquilon Project in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec

Core Insights - Sirios Resources Inc. has reported significant assay results from its 2025 summer diamond drilling campaign at the Aquilon gold project, indicating a high-potential gold halo in the western sector of the project [1][3]. Drilling Program Details - A total of 13 drill holes were completed, amounting to 5,420 metres, in a previously underexplored area west of historical gold showings [2]. - The drilling results outline a new mineralization context characterized by high-grade gold intervals surrounded by a lower-grade halo [10]. Gold Halo Discovery - A strongly anomalous gold halo has been discovered, extending over more than one kilometre in length and several hundred metres in width, remaining open in all directions [3]. - The halo is defined by 538 core samples from six drill holes, with local gold grades reaching up to 10.3 g/t Au and a weighted average grade of 0.26 g/t Au [3]. Key Drill Intervals - Notable drill intervals include: - Hole AQ25-113: 2.78 g/t Au over 1.2 m - Hole AQ25-123: 2.09 g/t Au over 1.0 m - Hole AQ25-119: 2.55 g/t Au over 4.8 m, including 10.3 g/t Au over 1.0 m - Hole AQ25-118: 5.51 g/t Au over 1.0 m [5][6]. Future Exploration Plans - An additional core sampling program of 1,496 metres has been completed to infill unsampled intervals within the gold corridor, with forthcoming assay results expected to refine the corridor's geometry and average grades [11]. - The western sector of Aquilon has been prioritized following the identification of gold-in-soil anomalies during previous sampling campaigns [12]. Project Background - The Aquilon gold project consists of 140 mineral claims covering an area of 68 km², located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec [14]. - The project has previously reported some of the highest gold grades in Quebec, including notable drill intercepts [14]. Funding and Partnerships - The drilling program is funded by Sumitomo Metal Mining Canada, which will gain a 51% interest in the Aquilon project upon exceeding a commitment of $4.8 million [13].
