Laurion has intersected gold, zinc, silver, and copper mineralisation in the first three holes of its Phase 1 diamond drilling program at the Ishkōday project in Ontario. The latest results extend the polymetallic footprint of the A-Zone down-plunge and confirm a new geophysical target at the Garvey Zone.

Hole LBX26-104, designed to test the down-plunge extension of the A-Zone, returned 11.15m grading 0.393 g/t Au, 6.06 g/t Ag, 0.18% Cu, and 1.80% Zn. This interval included a higher-grade sub-interval of 1.95m at 1.314 g/t Au, 13.43 g/t Ag, 0.41% Cu, and 6.34% Zn.

A second hole, LBX26-105, intercepted 14.90m grading 0.125 g/t Au, 4.89 g/t Ag, 0.18% Cu, and 0.67% Zn southwest of previous drilling, along with a 2.00m intercept at 1.342 g/t Au. The company noted that LBX26-103 validated its geophysical targeting concept at the Garvey Zone, where chargeability and resistivity signatures indicate the presence of hydrothermal quartz-breccia-hosted mineralisation.

“In our view, these three holes are an encouraging start to our 2026 infill program, continuing to confirm and extend mineralisation we already know is here.”

The company is currently progressing through the Phase 1 drilling program, which is intended to advance the Ishkōday project toward the completion of a maiden mineral resource estimate. The current drilling effort follows an independent technical gap analysis that identified five target zones to refine geological modelling and evaluate the continuity of the A-Zone deposit.
