STLLR Gold Inc. (TSX: STLR) reported additional assay results from its 2026 drilling program at the Jonpol Deposit on the Garrison Property of the Tower Gold Project in the Timmins Mining Camp, Ontario, Canada.
The company said the new results continue to intersect high-grade, near-surface gold mineralization in targeted areas along the western strike extension of the Jonpol Deposit.
Keyvan Salehi, P.Eng., MBA, President, CEO and Director of STLLR, said the results underscore Jonpol’s potential and support the objective of expanding the open-pit strike length to 1,200 meters while maintaining strong, above-average grades as the project advances.
He added that bringing higher-grade, open-pit mineralization forward in the mine plan could enhance Tower’s estimated production profile and overall economic value, and that the results demonstrate continuity across the system and validate the geological model.
STLLR said the 2026 drill program is designed to deliver two primary objectives:
The Jonpol Deposit is located in the Garrison Property at the eastern end of Tower along the Munro Fault, described as a splay from the regional Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone (DPFZ). Mineralization is hosted in structurally controlled alteration zones within mafic to ultramafic rocks, with gold mineralization closely associated with felsic intrusive rocks.
The company said the 2026 drill program includes an estimated 8,000 m of planned drilling in the first half of the year, with plans for the second half of the year currently being finalized.
STLLR provided additional intercepts and drill-hole details for the 2026 program, including intercepts reported with a 0.30 g/t Au cut-off, true thickness (TT) calculations, and specified internal dilution and grade caps (details below).
STLLR said NQ drill core is oriented and cut, with half sent to ALS Laboratories Inc. for drying and crushing to -2 mm, followed by pulverization of a 1.00 kg split to -75 µm (200#). ALS is described as ISO 17025 accredited.
The company said samples are fire assayed and analyzed using an AAS finish for gold, with samples above 10.00 g/t Au analyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish. It also said selected samples with visible gold or high-grade mineralization are assayed using metallic screen fire assay on a 1.00 kg sample. STLLR reported using inserted independent certified reference material and blanks, routine pulp repeats, and third-party check assays.
True thickness (TT) was calculated in Leapfrog Geo perpendicular to the interpreted plane of mineralization using the dip and dip azimuth of the mineralized zones. Intercepts were calculated using a 0.30 g/t Au cut-off, with a maximum of 5 m internal dilution and a 25 g/t Au cap applied.
John McBride, MSc., P.Geo., Vice President of Exploration for STLLR, reviewed and approved the technical disclosure in the news release, as the Qualified Person under NI 43-101.
Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
