Evergold provides Exploration Update from Golden Lion Project in Toodoggone, British Columbia
Evergold Corp. (EVER) is currently advancing its exploration program at the Golden Lion property in north-central British Columbia, with diamond drilling focused on the GL1 zone. The company has completed 1,400 metres of drilling across six holes, with approximately ten to twelve additional holes planned to test the target from multiple pads. This ongoing work is designed to systematically explore the strike and width of the known mineralized zone.
Recent field efforts have been augmented by high-resolution drone magnetic and LiDAR surveys. These data, when integrated with historical exploration records, have provided a refined geological model for the project. Specifically, the updated interpretation indicates that the GL1 mineralized zone maintains a moderate to steep northeast dip—an orientation that the company notes was not fully appreciated during earlier drilling campaigns.
Management reports that the core recovered from the initial holes shows consistent geological features. The company has made an interactive 3D model of the project area available for stakeholders to view at https://mininghub.com/3d/v/X5goSrKf.
"All holes completed to date have returned encouraging visual indications, including abundant base metal sulphide-bearing veining consistent with known GL1 gold-silver mineralization."
— Alex Walcott, President & CEO
While these visual observations provide early context for the exploration program, they do not serve as a substitute for laboratory analysis. The company is currently conducting core logging and sampling, and it expects to release assay results for the ongoing drill program at the GL1 zone once received and interpreted.
Beyond the core drilling activities, the company has also initiated broader exploration initiatives across the northern portion of the property. This work follows up on airborne geophysical data collected earlier in the season, including a survey aimed at investigating a copper-gold stream sediment anomaly identified in an area known as the Copper King. The data from the airborne MobileMT survey is currently being processed to help guide future geological mapping and geochemical sampling programs.
The combination of systematic diamond drilling at the GL1 zone and the application of new airborne and drone-based geophysical tools reflects the company’s current approach to evaluating the broader potential of the property. By integrating structural data from the new drone surveys with historical geological information, the team aims to improve target resolution across its 12,500-hectare land package. These efforts remain focused on identifying and testing mineralized systems that hold potential for scale.
