Golden Chest Mine Continues To Report High-Grade Drill Results

COEUR D'ALENE, ID - Idaho Strategic Resources reported additional high-grade drill highlights from its operating Golden Chest Mine. The company intersected high-grade gold in six separate veins most of which are relatively near the mine's current underground infrastructure.

The true thickness of the Red Star is not known at this time and more drilling or possibly drifting will be required to delineate the geometry of this new area. The H-Vein intercepts are near true thickness. The Bush, Jumbo, and Paymaster intercepts are estimated to be approximately 70% of true thickness.

President and CEO, John Swallow, said, "The results recorded in the table above are very impressive, especially considering they are from areas of relative proximity to our underground infrastructure and existing operations. The Golden Chest Mine continues to be a target-rich environment, and these high-grade drill results reinforce the investment of a portion of our cashflow in exploration and development activities on-site. As we close out the winter, we are looking forward to ramping up our exploration activities once again. We have a number of drill programs planned for 2025, including further resource expansion drilling at the Golden Chest Mine, exploration drilling of multiple historic mines in the broader Murray Gold Belt District, and our first ever drill program at Eastern Star. Each of these programs have a lot of potential and their success could lead to rapid development given each planned exploration target is located on private land in Idaho."
