Multiple High-Grade Intercepts At Northeast Tyro

VANCOUVER – West Point Gold Corp. reported on the high-grade zone at Northeast (NE) Tyro, which is part of the ongoing 15,000 metre (m) drill program at its flagship Gold Chain Project in Arizona. The Company is reporting assay results for four drill holes (936 m), GC25-85 through GC25-88.
Hole GC25-87 returned 27.4m of 9.56 g/t Au at 71.6m to 99.1m, including 13.7m of 18.00 g/t Au at 79.3m to 93.0m, about 50m up-dip from GC25-49 (62.5m at 4.73 g/t Au) – expanding the highest-grade part of the zone up-dip. Hole GC25-88 returned 44.2m of 5.46 g/t Au at 140.2m to 184.4m, including 18.3m of 12.04 g/t Au at 166.1m to 184.4m – expanding the high-grade zone along strike, as this is the furthest northeast hole at Tyro. Hole GC25-85 returned 29.0m of 5.24 g/t Au at 164.6m to 193.6m, including 12.2m of 10.48 g/t Au at 176.8m to 189.0m, about 80m down-dip from hole GC25-58 which returned 32.0m of 2.01 g/t Au. Hole GC25-86 returned 36.6m of 2.22 g/t Au at 179.8 to 216.4m about 140m down-dip from GC25-57 which returned 12.2m at 3.52 g/t Au.
Drilling continues to explore the deeper portions of the high-grade zone between the Tyro NE and Main zones, with two holes (540 m) completed with assays pending. A total of 3,769 m of the planned 15,000m program was completed in 2025.
“Drilling at NE Tyro continues to return better than expected grades with good continuity at relatively shallow depths. The high-grade zone at NE Tyro appears to continue at depth and to the northeast, suggesting the zone remains open to further expansion as we continue drilling. We expect these results to positively impact the grade profile and the overall scale of our upcoming maiden resource. Drilling continues at Gold Chain, with one rig at NE Tyro, and one at Tyro South,” stated Derek Macpherson, President and CEO.
