ADVANCED GOLD COMMENCES PERMITTING OF DOYLE PROPERTY FOR 2026 DRILL PROGRAM
Advanced Gold Exploration Inc. has initiated acquiring all necessary permits to commence a 3,000-metre diamond drilling program at its 100-per-cent-owned Doyle property. Located in the Batchawana greenstone belt (BGB) north of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., the Doyle property has emerged as a high-priority asset following the discovery of visible gold and high-grade surface samples during the 2024-2025 field seasons.
2026 exploration strategy
The coming drill program will be designed to test the depth and strike continuity of the high-grade mineralization identified during the company's recent prospecting campaigns. Drilling will specifically focus on the newly identified northeast-trending extensional structures, which the company believes may host significant gold mineralization previously overlooked by historical exploration focused on north-northwest-trending structures.
Highlights of 2024-2025 exploration success
The 2026 drill targets are supported by exceptional surface results announced over the past 18 months:
- Visible gold discovery: in late 2024, the company reported the first-ever discovery of visible gold on surface at the Doyle property;
- High-grade assay results: 13.2 grams per tonne gold and 9.82 g/t Au from surface grab samples in the newly discovered zone:
- 1.23 g/t Au over 40.6 metres and 2.4 g/t Au over 16.2 metres from channel sampling, confirming broad zones of mineralization at surface;
- Historical correlation: these surface results appear to be the expression of a significant historical intercept in hole T94-22, which returned 49.8 g/t Au at a depth of 80 metres.
"We are looking forward to receiving a new permit to further develop the Doyle gold property for AUEX," said Arndt Roehlig, president and chief executive officer of Advanced Gold. "The discovery of visible gold at surface in 2024 fundamentally changed our understanding of the Doyle property. By applying modern lidar and geophysical interpretation, we've identified a structural corridor that has never been drill tested. This program represents our most aggressive effort to date to unlock the Hemlo-style potential of the Batchawana greenstone belt."
The company is currently finalizing contracts with drilling service providers to develop a spring 2026 drill program.
