Other Hanging Wall and Footwall intersections: drilling continues to intersect high-grade mineralization in proximity to existing underground infrastructure in yet to be defined zones. These are part of more than 2,000 intersections above 3 g/t Au outside of existing Mineral Reserves and Resources in the hanging wall and footwall, highlighting the opportunity for significant near-mine additions as ongoing drilling further defines these areas. New highlights include2:

"Our transition to underground exploration drilling from surface directional drilling has been successful across a number of fronts. Drilling continues to extend high-grade mineralization across the two kilometre long lateral extent of the main Island Gold deposit, as well as within a number of new and expanding zones in the hanging wall and footwall. These results within the main Island Gold structure and a growing number of hanging wall and footwall zones are expected to drive another increase in combined Mineral Reserves and Resources at Island Gold with the year-end update to be released later this month. This is expected to mark the eighth consecutive year of Mineral Reserve and Resource growth over which time the deposit has more than tripled in size to well over five million ounces of gold,” said
“These expected high-grade additions are all in proximity to our existing underground infrastructure such that they will be low-cost to develop and provide increasing operational flexibility as we expand the operation. With the main deposit open laterally and down-plunge, and more than 2,000 intersections of significant gold mineralization outside of existing Reserves and Resources in the hanging wall and footwall, we expect Island Gold’s tremendous track record of growth to continue,”
New highlight intercepts can be found in Tables 1 and 2, and in Figures 1 and 2 at the end of this news release.
2023 Exploration Drilling Program – Island Gold
During 2023, 157 holes totaling 39,110 metres (“m”) were completed as part of the underground exploration program, and 155 holes totaling 31,636 m as part of the underground delineation drilling program. To support the underground program, a total of 404 m of underground exploration drift development was completed in 2023 on the 850, 945, and 1025 levels. Additionally, 5,131 m of surface drilling was completed in three holes. The regional surface drilling program, focused on the Pine-Breccia and
2024 Exploration Drilling Program
A total of
Consistent with the 2023 program, the majority of the 2024 mine exploration program will be comprised of underground drilling with 41,000 m planned. The focus will be the definition of new Mineral Reserves and Resources in proximity to existing production horizons and infrastructure, as well as the conversion of the large existing Mineral Resource base to Mineral Reserves. This includes drilling across the strike extent of the main Island Gold Deposit (E1E and C-Zones), as well as within a growing number of newly defined hanging-wall and footwall zones. To support the underground exploration drilling program, 460 m of underground exploration drift development is planned to extend drill platforms on the 850, 945, and 1025-levels.
Additionally, 12,500 m of surface exploration drilling has been budgeted targeting high potential areas within the Island West, Main and East ore shoots, the up-plunge extension of the Island West ore shoot, and evaluating the potential for high-grade mineralized hanging wall structures near surface.
The regional exploration program has also been expanded to 10,000 m. The 2024 program will follow up on high-grade mineralization intersected at the Pine-Breccia and 88-60 targets, located 4 kilometres (“km”) and 7 km, respectively, from the
Island West
Underground Exploration Drilling
Underground drilling has further extended high-grade gold mineralization along strike, 150 m to the west, and up plunge of existing Mineral Reserves and Resources in the middle portion of Island West. Drilling is being conducted from the 490-level and the 790-level exploration drifts, between vertical depths of 400 m and 1,100 m.
New highlights include (Figure 1, Table 1):
C-Zone
- 106.04 g/t Au (48.86 g/t cut) over 2.38 m (490-456-13); and
- 19.56 g/t Au (19.56 g/t cut) over 3.81 m (790-479-40).
Island West Hanging Wall Zones
In addition to testing the C-Zone, underground exploration drilling continued to target and expand on previous drilling that intersected high-grade gold mineralization in sub-parallel and perpendicular structures in the hanging wall from the 490, 790, and 900-levels.
The NS1 zone is a north-striking structure with a high-angle orientation relative to the C-Zone. After being discovered early in 2023, the first stopes were mined from the NS1 zone during the second half 2023 highlighting the near-term opportunities within these hanging wall and footwall zones. Ongoing drill testing and five exploration sills have been completed from the 750, 770, 790, 810, and 850-levels which have demonstrated excellent continuity, over an average strike of 40 m to the south on these levels, and over 100 m vertically. Additional drilling from the 490, 580, 770, and 900 levels has now expanded the NS1 zone over a vertical extent of 450 m, from the 400 level to the 995 level, and defined an average strike of 70 m.
In addition to contributing to near-term production, an initial Mineral Reserve and Resource will be declared within the NS1 zone in the year-end 2023 update. The zone remains open up and down dip and will be an ongoing focus of drilling in 2024. In addition, other north-striking high-angle structures have been identified across the deposit, which will be evaluated further as underground exploration drilling advances.
New highlights from the Island West Hanging Wall zones include (Table 1):
- 29.33 g/t Au (23.89 g/t cut) over 6.93 m (790-479-34);
- 40.36 g/t Au (40.36 g/t cut) over 3.91 m (790-479-40);
- 65.23 g/t Au (24.36 g/t cut) over 2.28 m (900-506-09);
- 23.34 g/t Au (12.56 g/t cut) over 4.03 m (900-506-10);
- 17.30 g/t Au (8.61 g/t cut) over 3.41 m (900-506-11A);
- 12.33 g/t Au (12.33 g/t cut) over 3.96 m (900-506-07); and
- 10.46 g/t Au (10.46 g/t cut) over 4.17 m (900-506-08).
Island East
Underground Exploration Drilling
Underground drilling from the 840 and 945-level exploration drifts, as well as the 1040 ramp continues to extend high-grade gold mineralization along strike to the east of Mineral Reserves and Resources in the middle portion of Island East (between vertical depths of 700 m and 1,300 m).
New highlights in the E1E-Zone include (Figure 1, Table 1):
- 34.48 g/t Au (34.48 g/t cut) over 2.82 m (840-632-49);
- 20.85 g/t Au (20.85 g/t cut) over 2.41 m (1040-619-20);
- 19.22 g/t Au (19.22 g/t cut) over 2.05 m (945-624-34);
- 16.13 g/t Au (16.13 g/t cut) over 2.45 m (840-530-09);
- 16.99 g/t Au (16.99 g/t cut) over 2.05 m (840-632-47); and
- 14.76 g/t Au (12.66 g/t cut) over 2.06 m (840-632-45).
Island East Footwall Zones
In addition to testing the E1E-Zone, underground exploration drilling continued to target and expand on previous drilling that intersected high-grade gold mineralization in structures in the footwall from the 945 and 1040-levels. This additional drilling has been successful in establishing continuity and extending high-grade gold mineralization within multiple structures referred to as the E1D1 and E1D zones, located 10 m and 30 m from the E1E-Zone, respectively.
New highlights from the Island East Footwall zones include (Table 1):
- 67.08 g/t Au (13.21 g/t cut) over 2.56 m (1040-619-22);
- 50.10 g/t Au (12.67 g/t cut) over 2.35 m (1040-619-31);
- 14.78 g/t Au (14.39 g/t cut) over 2.17 m (1040-619-20); and
- 14.45 g/t Au (14.45 g/t cut) over 2.05 m (1040-619-13).
- 228.50 g/t Au (70.63 g/t cut) over 2.79 m (945-624-31A); and
- 52.31 g/t Au (15.13 g/t cut) over 2.06 m (945-624-32).
As with the hanging wall and footwall zones in Island West, these footwall zones in Island East highlight the potential to add high-grade Mineral Reserves and Resources in proximity of existing production horizons and infrastructure which would be low-cost to develop and mine.
Other Zones
The majority of Island Gold’s Mineral Reserves and Resources and main production horizons are hosted in the C/E1E structure. The Island Gold Deposit also consists of a growing number of sub-parallel and high-angle mineralized structures outside of the main C/E1E-Zone. As underground development advances, these sub-parallel hanging wall and footwall structures can be targeted and defined with step-out drilling from underground drill platforms.
These zones and other targets within the hanging wall and footwall represent significant opportunities to define additional high-grade Mineral Reserves and Resources outside of the main C/E1E-Zone in proximity to existing underground infrastructure. These additions would enhance the ounce per vertical metre profile and provide multiple mining horizons from the same lateral development levels.
The following are highlights of new hanging wall and footwall intersections from underground exploration drilling where the geometry and continuity are not yet established (“Unknown Zone”). These are part of more than 2,000 intersections above 3 g/t Au within recently defined and yet to be defined zones in the hanging wall and footwall. These intersections are outside of existing Mineral Reserves and Resources, highlighting the opportunity for significant near-mine additions as ongoing drilling further defines these areas.
New highlights include (reported composite intervals are uncut and as core length, as true width is unknown at this time) (Table 1):
Footwall intersections:
- 1389.65 g/t Au over 2.90 m (620-595-02);
- 39.42 g/t Au over 2.45 m (840-632-49);
- 25.85 g/t Au over 3.65 m (840-632-41);
- 18.71 g/t Au over 3.45 m (1015-640-06); and
- 16.05 g/t Au over 2.75 m (840-632-41).
Hanging wall intersections:
- 103.37 g/t over 2.90 m (900-506-13);
- 52.65 g/t Au over 2.15 m (900-506-06); and
- 17.33 g/t Au over 2.70 m (900-506-13).
