Elk Range Mining gold exploration in Idaho

Overview

Elk Range Mining has reported significant gold findings at its Friday Gold Project near Elk City, Idaho. Initial reports indicated the identification of coarse visible gold within historical drill cores. The company suggested that previous 2014 assays may have under-reported grades due to small sample sizes, prompting a move toward modern photon assay analysis using larger sample charges.

Following these findings, the company completed its maiden diamond drill hole, 26FRD001, which reached a depth of 336.8 metres. This hole extended approximately 200 metres beyond historical drilling and revealed visible gold at multiple depths, including a veinlet exceeding 1cm in width at 233.8 metres. Assay results from this new drilling are expected in late October or early November 2026, while subsequent drilling operations are currently underway.
