Integral Metals Corp. has completed its 2026 diamond drilling program at the KAP Project in the Mackenzie Mountains of the Northwest Territories.

Drilling at the property began on August 8 following field mobilization and concluded on September 10. Operations on site have now transitioned to demobilization, involving the teardown of the drill rig and the transport of equipment, drill core, and personnel from the field.

The 2026 program focused on defining the geometry of the Main showing, testing gaps between previous areas of drill coverage, and evaluating potential extensions. Crews also tested a zinc-lead soil anomaly at the nearby Steep Creek showing to assess mineralization potential beyond the main target area.

Remaining technical work involves completing core logging and sampling, laboratory analysis, and data compilation to refine the project's geological model. Integral Metals will report assay results and technical review findings following the receipt of laboratory data.

“This season’s drilling allowed us to investigate the boundaries of the Main showing and test the nearby Steep Creek target,” said Paul Sparkes, Chief Executive Officer of Integral Metals. “Our next step is to assess the geological and assay data from each area to guide future exploration. We thank our field team, contractors and local partners for their work throughout the program.”
