Scottie Resources Completes 25,000 Metres in 2026 Drill Push

Scottie Resources Corp. has completed more than 25,000 metres of drilling across upwards of 100 drill holes at the Scottie Gold Mine Project, located 35 kilometres north of Stewart in British Columbia.
The milestone represents half of the company’s fully financed 50,000-metre drill program for 2026, its largest exploration campaign to date. Eight diamond drills are currently active on site, with seven operating on the Scottie Gold Mine Project and one stationed at the Cambria Project.
Drilling at the Blueberry Contact Zone and the Scottie Gold Mine is focused on expanding and upgrading high-grade gold resources to support a Feasibility Study targeted for the first half of 2027. The project currently hosts an Inferred resource estimate of 703,000 gold ounces at an average grade of 6.1 g/t across 3.6 million tonnes.
The current 25,000-metre total surpasses the 10,000 metres completed by late July 2026 and builds on the 2025 program, which delivered 27,309 metres.
“Completing more than 25,000 metres of drilling is an important milestone for Scottie and demonstrates the scale and pace of our largest drill program to date,” said Dr. Thomas Mumford, President & CEO.

The 2026 campaign has also brought the first-ever drilling to the Cambria Project, located approximately 15 kilometres east of the Scottie Gold Mine Project, where a 2,000 to 3,000-metre program is targeting numerous mapped and sampled vein systems.
Meanwhile, approximately 2,000 metres have been drilled at the Domino target, situated about 2 kilometres west of the main mine, testing outcropping veins at surface that coincide with induced polarization anomalies and over 30 high-grade surface samples ranging between 5 and 536 g/t gold. Additional targets undergoing testing include the Bend Vein, C and D Zones, Serac Vein, and the Lakebed area. Parallel technical programs, encompassing geotechnical, hydrogeological, condemnation drilling, geophysics, remote sensing, and environmental baseline studies, are advancing alongside the drilling.
“We are particularly excited to have commenced drilling at Cambria for the first time, while drilling at Domino is focused on the potential to define an entirely new deposit,” said Dr. Thomas Mumford, President & CEO. “With over 100 new holes drilled to date, and in process of being logged, sampled and awaiting assays, investors can expect a steady stream of results beginning in the coming weeks.”
