Highlights 

  • Drill hole FCG25-33 ends in 4.8 g/t Au over 12.5m mineralized zone 
  • 250m undrilled section evaluated between Colorado SW and North Fork gold zones 
  • Results confirm continuity and expansion potential within modeled open-pit area 

Getchell Gold Corp. (CSE:GTCH) reported new assay results for drill holes FCG25-33 to FCG25-35 from its 100% owned Fondaway Canyon gold project in Nevada. The drilling focused on a 250-meter undrilled section located between the Colorado SW and North Fork gold zones. 

The objective of the drilling was to evaluate mineralization continuity within this underexplored area of the modeled open-pit resource. 

Drill Hole FCG25-33 

Drill hole FCG25-33 encountered three significant gold intervals, including 1.4 g/t Au over 122.3m, 1.4 g/t Au over 27.8m, and 1.0 g/t Au over 22.1m. The hole terminated in a mineralized zone grading 4.8 g/t Au over 12.5m, which may indicate a high-grade, deep-seated structure. 

The company stated that FCG25-33 demonstrates approximately 30m of internal strike and 50m of down-dip continuity. Drilling was halted early due to ground conditions but ended while still within mineralization. 

Drill Hole FCG25-34 

FCG25-34 intersected three mineralized intervals of 2.1 g/t Au over 51.0m, 1.5 g/t Au over 36.0m, and 1.4 g/t Au over 12.9m. These results confirm connectivity between the Colorado SW and North Fork zones, extending mineralization internally by 125m along strike and 80m down-dip. 

An untested 400-meter section remains between FCG25-33/34 and historical drill hole FC17-05, which returned 2.5 g/t Au over 25.8m and ended in mineralization. 

Drill Hole FCG25-35 

The final hole in the series, FCG25-35, targeted the furthest down-dip continuation of mineralization between the two zones. The hole intersected several high-grade structures, the most notable grading 2.0 g/t Au over 25.7m. 

Management Statement 

“The most recent drill holes confirm strong lateral continuity of mineralization in the 250m gap between the Project’s biggest discoveries, the Colorado SW and North Fork gold zones. This is a critical development addressing and adding to the in-pit resource model as well as supporting strong confidence for further expansion at the Fondaway Canyon gold project,” said Mike Sieb, President, Getchell Gold Corp. 

Drill Program Overview 

The 2025 drill program consisted of ten holes totaling 3,346m (10,979 ft). Results from seven holes (FCG25-29 through FCG25-35) have now been released, while results from the remaining three holes are expected by year-end due to laboratory delays. 

Company Overview  

Getchell Gold Corp. is a Nevada-based exploration company focused on advancing its Fondaway Canyon gold project, a former producer with a substantial mineral resource estimate and a published Preliminary Economic Assessment.
