Core Viewpoint - GoldQuest Mining Corp. is advancing its 2025 drilling and metallurgical testwork program at the Romero Gold-Copper Project in the Dominican Republic, with significant progress reported since the program's commencement in September 2025 [1][2]. Drilling and Metallurgical Program Update - The company has completed five metallurgical drill holes totaling 1,906 meters, aimed at providing fresh core for advanced metallurgical testing and supporting the ongoing Feasibility Study [2][5]. - All five drill holes have visually confirmed high-grade mineralization, showcasing multiple mineralization events, including massive sulphides and other favorable alteration styles [3][5]. - Approximately 1,600 meters of representative core have been selected for advanced locked-cycle and variability testwork at ALS Kamloops, with initial results expected in March 2026 and a final report anticipated by late April or early May 2026 [5][10]. Geotechnical and Hydrogeological Drilling - The geotechnical and hydrogeological drilling program is on schedule, consisting of five dedicated geotechnical holes and twelve hydrogeological holes, with completion expected by February 2026 [11][12]. - Data from these holes will support detailed engineering design for the Feasibility Study [11]. Exploration and Targeting - An additional rig is being mobilized to the high-priority Cachimbo discovery target to initiate resource delineation drilling and test other early-stage targets along the mineralized corridor [5][12]. - The integration of new structural, geophysical, and geological datasets into machine learning software is underway, aimed at refining exploration targets for 2026 [13]. Management Commentary - The CEO of GoldQuest expressed satisfaction with the progress of the 2025 program, highlighting the completion of the metallurgical drilling campaign as a significant de-risking milestone for the Romero Project [14].
