Core Insights - Happy Creek Minerals Ltd. has reported significant drill results from the 2025 program at the Fox Tungsten Project, indicating potential resource expansion and continuity of tungsten mineralization [1][2]. Group 1: Drill Results - The 2025 drill program included 18 diamond core drill holes totaling 2,176 meters, focusing on the expansion of tungsten resources at the Ridley Creek (RC) and BN zones [2][6]. - Notable results from the RC zone include: - 1.18 meters grading 6.83% WO3 from 31.2 meters in hole F25-13 - 1.00 meters grading 2.22% WO3 from 47.0 meters in hole F25-01 - 0.95 meters grading 1.11% WO3 from 36.5 meters in hole F25-02 [2][6]. - The BN zone drilling revealed: - 1.00 meters grading 0.88% WO3 from 105.0 meters in hole F25-16 - 1.65 meters grading 0.57% WO3 from 218.3 meters in hole F25-16 - 2.50 meters grading 0.25% WO3 from 106.2 meters in hole F25-17 [2][3]. Group 2: Geological Insights - The RC zone is approximately 400 meters by 175 meters, with a thickness ranging from 5 to 25 meters, and is open to the west beneath Deception Mountain [7][10]. - The BN zone consists of three stacked calc silicate horizons, with the middle horizon being the best defined and containing most of the current resource, located 20 to 80 meters below the surface [14][15]. Group 3: Exploration Focus - The 2025 drilling program aimed to explore the extent of calc silicate hosted tungsten mineralization mainly to the west and south, confirming geological continuity and expanding the resource area [10][16]. - The drilling at the BN zone tested the potential for mineralized horizons to extend to the northwest and at depth, indicating further resource expansion potential [16].
