Cambria Gold Mines (TSXV: CAMB) reported a broad, high-grade drill update from its Premier Gold Project in northwestern British Columbia, with 26,303 metres completed across 135 surface diamond drill holes, supporting both resource expansion and higher-confidence remodelling at Big Missouri.
The strongest 2025 Big Missouri extension results came from 3,252 metres drilled across 15 holes targeting the deposit’s southwestern extension. Reported standout intercepts included:
- 15.9 metres grading 20.75 g/t gold and 51.0 g/t silver, including 6.1 metres at 50.13 g/t gold and 123.0 g/t silver
- 6.9 metres at 32.81 g/t gold and 13.4 g/t silver, including 2.5 metres at 88.24 g/t gold and 20.1 g/t silver
- 4.0 metres at 24.23 g/t gold and 28.8 g/t silver
Cambria said the highest-grade intervals are associated with moderate to intense sulfide mineralization and quartz alteration, and stated the zone remains open along strike and down-dip, leaving further room for follow-up drilling as work continues in 2026.
A second 2025 success came from the Sebakwe extension area, where 11,712 metres were drilled across 35 holes to test new targets. That campaign outlined a newly defined target zone near the existing Premier mill facility and outside the current resource area, interpreted as a possible extension of the historically mined Sebakwe trend north of the Premier-Northern Lights deposit.
The best Sebakwe-area results were:
- 3.9 metres at 16.20 g/t gold and 68.0 g/t silver
- 2.3 metres at 9.61 g/t gold and 50.0 g/t silver
- 1.3 metres at 32.40 g/t gold and 9.1 g/t silver
The miner said the mineralization is structurally controlled, sulfide-rich, and hosted in quartz veins and cemented breccias, with similarities to the Premier Northern Lights deposit located 600 metres to the southeast.
Cambria also completed 11,339 metres over 85 holes in 2024 as close-spaced infill drilling designed to support mine development planning.
After the project moved to care and maintenance in 2025, Cambria sent the 2024 pulps for reanalysis. That reanalysis produced several notable infill intersections:
- 8.5 metres at 8.45 g/t gold and 41.5 g/t silver, including 1.0 metre at 15.95 g/t gold and 1.75 metres at 18.80 g/t gold
- 6.2 metres at 7.70 g/t gold and 34.2 g/t silver
- 10.0 metres at 7.66 g/t gold and 12.2 g/t silver, including 4.8 metres at 14.59 g/t gold and 16.2 g/t silver
- 8.3 metres at 9.28 g/t gold, including 2.0 metres at 32.00 g/t gold and 30.0 g/t silver
Cambria said the 2024 infill results generally confirm grades and geometries indicated by earlier nearby drilling.
“The identification of high-grade gold mineralization proximal to the Big Missouri and PNL deposits demonstrates the strong resource expansion potential at the Premier Gold Project these results will help inform remodelling work as we redefine Big Missouri’s geological potential and the high-grade gold results 600 meters north of the PNL deposit are highly encouraging,” CEO Robert McLeod said.
He added that the 2026 drilling program has recently commenced and will target upgrading and expansion of current mineral resources.
