Resolution Minerals Ltd has successfully completed its planned 2026 drilling campaign at the Horse Heaven project in Idaho, United States, finishing a total of 12,236 metres across 42 diamond core holes at the Golden Gate Prospect.

The campaign represents a substantial scale-up from the Phase 1 program conducted in 2025, which tested 14 drill holes across 3,780 metres. The 2026 drilling follows earlier work that extended gold mineralisation at least 2,000 metres south of Golden Gate North, confirming discovery status at Golden Gate South. Assay results are currently pending for 39 of the completed drill holes, with reporting scheduled over the coming months.

“I am exceedingly pleased to announce the completion of all the planned drillholes at Golden Gate. We await gold and tungsten assay results from the drillhole samples with anticipation. The 2026 drill program marks the largest exploration program ever conducted at Horse Heaven. I thank the team and the drillers for this accomplishment. This work marks a major step forward in the development of the project.”

— Craig Lindsay, CEO of US Operations

The drilling program was designed to test the scale of gold and tungsten mineralisation, targeting the extent of tungsten around historical mine workings at the Golden Gate Tungsten mine alongside a broad tungsten-in-soil anomaly at Golden Gate South. Previous drilling highlights from the project include an intercept of 305.7 metres at 0.64 g/t gold from surface in hole HH-GG26-003C.

Following the completion of core logging and sample preparation, Resolution is targeting an initial maiden gold resource for the Horse Heaven project by late 2026 or the first quarter of 2027.
