Remarkable Continuity Demonstrated Of Black Pine Mineralized Zone
VANCOUVER – Liberty Gold Corp. reported additional reverse circulation (RC) and core drill results from the 2025 drilling program at the Black Pine Oxide Gold Project in southeastern Idaho. The results reflect infill and targeted step-out drilling designed to validate geological continuity, improve confidence in the spatial distribution of mineralized domains and expand the resource ahead of the upcoming feasibility study.
Drilling at the Discovery Zone continues to confirm expected continuity of oxide gold mineralization within areas of historically sparse drilling. Results from the Rangefront Zone continue to exceed expectations both within the core of the ore body and expanding mineralization on the margins. The majority of the reported holes are located within or immediately adjacent to existing pit designs and are intended to tighten classification confidence and convert waste blocks into resource where drilling was sparse.
Drilling at Rangefront continues to highlight the growth potential of this increasingly important area with: 1) The high-grade core of Rangefront continues to deliver >100 gram-meter intercepts with drill hole LBP1197 returning 0.86 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 123.4 meters (“m”) including 2.45 g/t Au over 24.4 m. 2) A new high-grade discovery, extending 300 m to the northeast of the Rangefront resource pit has been further defined by drill holes LBP1213 (0.67 g/t Au over 61.0 m) and LBP1201 (0.45 g/t Au over 68.6 m) and remains open. 3) New drilling at Rangefront has defined shallow zones of new oxide gold mineralization, which are expected to convert previously modeled waste blocks to resource on the western, northwestern and southeast margins in drillholes LBP1211, LBP1217 and LBP1198, respectively. Infill drilling is expected to primarily support conversion of Inferred material to Indicated classification, while also increasing total resource ounces in what were areas of low-density drill spacing.
“These results continue to demonstrate the remarkable continuity of the Black Pine mineralized system and its ability to surprise with continued growth and new high-grade zones,” said Pete Shabestari, Vice President of Exploration. “The infill drilling is confirming what we already know – we are tightening our geological model ahead of feasibility where historical drill coverage was low and in the higher grade domains. This past year’s drilling has also confirmed that Rangefront remains wide open for expansion, with a current footprint of 1500 meters by 1000 meters, and based on this year’s results, we still have a lot of work to do.”
