Core Viewpoint - West Point Gold Corp. has reported promising drilling results from the high-grade zone at Northeast Tyro, part of its Gold Chain Project in Arizona, indicating improved gold grades and continuity of mineralization at depth [2][7]. Drilling Results - The ongoing 15,000 metre drilling program has yielded assay results for three drill holes (GC25-82, GC25-83, GC25-84) totaling 658 metres, with significant gold grades observed [1][7]. - Hole GC25-82 encountered 96.0 metres of 0.42 g/t Au, while GC25-83 returned 16.8 metres of 8.30 g/t Au, including 6.1 metres of 17.61 g/t Au [3][9]. - Hole GC25-84 reported 24.4 metres of 5.92 g/t Au, with a notable 12.2 metres at 10.51 g/t Au [3][12]. Geological Insights - The drilling results suggest a coalescing of veins and veinlets, with increased gold grades at depth, typical of low-sulphidation epithermal gold systems [2][8]. - The mineralized zone appears to be consolidating into a more discrete package, indicating potential for further resource expansion [13]. Future Exploration - Drilling continues at NE Tyro, with four additional holes (936 m) completed and assays pending, aiming to explore deeper portions of the high-grade zone [5][8]. - The results are expected to positively influence the grade profile and overall scale of the upcoming maiden resource estimate [2][7]. Company Overview - West Point Gold Corp. is focused on exploration and development across four projects in the Walker Lane Trend, with a priority on advancing the Gold Chain Project in Arizona [17].
West Point Gold Expands Northeast Tyro to Depth and to the North, Drilling 24.4 m of 5.92 g/t Au from 120.4 m and 16.8 m of 8.3 g/t from 158.5 m
