NRED Intelligent Mining Inc. has completed a property-wide re-evaluation of historical airborne geophysical data for the Wilmac Copper-Gold Project in British Columbia, identifying 23 potassium anomalies and 18 structural corridors across the property.

The 16,078-hectare project is located within the Quesnel porphyry belt, approximately 10 kilometres west of Hudbay Minerals Inc.’s producing Copper Mountain Mine. The re-evaluation integrates airborne magnetic, radiometric, and electromagnetic data with geochemistry, geological mapping, and historical drilling and ground geophysics, establishing a unified exploration framework to rank prospective areas.

As part of the update, NRED eliminated a previously proposed magnetic alteration halo after reviewing magnetic-vector-inversion products that proved less sensitive to remanent magnetization. The reprocessing also identified 23 potassium-enrichment polygons through radiometric data normalized against thorium, alongside 18 coincident magnetic and topographic lineaments retained as candidate structural corridors.

“We now have a property-wide framework that allows us to compare the Wilmac, Lamont, and Trojan-Condor regions of the Wilmac Project using multiple independent datasets. Just as importantly, we have eliminated interpretations that are not supported by the newer analysis. This gives us a much more targeted approach to spending future exploration dollars on the most prospective areas.”

Euler deconvolution of the magnetic data outlined interpreted magnetic sources at varying depths beneath the Wilmac, Lamont, and Trojan-Condor target areas, with shallower sources at Wilmac and Lamont and deeper, model-dependent solutions at Trojan-Condor.

NRED plans to field-check the 18 candidate structural corridors and 23 potassium anomalies, prioritize ground gravity and electromagnetic work at Wilmac, and support a revised drill test at Trojan-Condor in a subsequent technical update.
