ADAMERA IDENTIFIES NEW GOLD PROSPECT ON THE SOUTH HEDLEY PROPERTY IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
Adamera Minerals Corp. is delineating areas on the 18,714-hectare South Hedley property in British Columbia that warrant detailed exploration. Work on one area, the Max prospect, currently commands the highest priority.
The Max prospect is located in the northwest portion of the 100-per-cent-owned property, between Whistle and Smith Creeks. The site is unexplored, having been identified from reconnaissance soil sampling carried out by the company. One soil sample yielded 1,340 parts per billion or 1.34 grams per tonne gold. The prospect is coincident with newly discovered quartz-rhodonite veining in contact metamorphosed volcanic rocks. It also coincides with a prominent magnetic anomaly and a structural/topographic lineament that extends for several hundred metres.
"Based on our field observation the Max prospect has not been recognized in the past by previous prospectors/explorers. The occurrence manifests itself on the slopes of a deeply incised tributary of Whistle Creek, well below the average elevation of the surrounding terrain. Our current sampling and geophysical surveys will extend to the northwest and southeast. We expect these results shortly," says Mark Kolebaba, president and chief executive officer of Adamera Minerals.
A total of 50 follow-up soil samples were collected over the area in mid to late July, 2025. The samples were analyzed using the DetectORE
method. Several of these samples yielded highly anomalous gold results ranging from an approximated 100 to 1,300 ppb gold. Another site with soil samples of 689 ppb and 1,020 ppb gold was prospected. Quartz veining and sulphide-(arsenopyrite)-bearing rocks were identified and sampled at that locality. Results for several rock samples and 46 additional soil samples are pending.
Since staking the property in 2021, Adamera has collected nearly 3,000 soil samples and 270 rock samples. In addition to geological mapping, 160 line kilometres of ground magnetic surveying and 75 line kilometres of VLF EM surveying have been completed. Several lines of self potential (SP) have also been completed.
Approximately 2.5 million to 3.0 million ounces of gold was reportedly produced in the Hedley gold camp. The Max prospect is located less than 10 kilometres from Barrick Gold Corp.'s past producer, the Nickel Plate mine.
Gordon Gibson (PGeo), qualified person under National Instrument 43-101, is an independent consultant that has reviewed certain data associated with this project.
Soil samples were analyzed in-house using the DetectORE
method for gold, a proprietary process developed by Portable PPB in Australia that allows for rapid gold analysis at ppb levels using a pXRF.
* The gold content of the discovery soil sample with 1,340 ppm gold was determined by fire assay of a 30-gram sample with atomic absorption finish. Adamera resampled the same site and analyzed 400 grams of soil using the DetectORE
method which yielded a comparable 1,361 DetectORE units representing a calculated ppb value.
