Enduro Metals Intercepts 10.01 g/t Gold over 12.45m at McLymont Fault
Enduro Metals (TSXV: ENDR) has announced assay results from its 2024 drill program at the Newmont Lake property's McLymont Fault. The program included four oriented diamond drill holes totaling 1,248 meters. Key highlights include intersection of 10.01 g/t Au, 12.12 g/t Ag, and 0.37% Cu over 12.45m in hole NW24-02, within a broader interval of 24.70m grading 5.17 g/t Au. The drilling successfully determined structural orientation of gold-bearing conduits, revealing structures with 60-80 degrees dip to the northwest. This new structural framework enhances targeting capabilities along the 20km strike of the McLymont Fault.

Kelowna, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 26, 2024) - Enduro Metals Corporation (TSXV: ENDR) (OTCQB: ENDMF) (FSE: SOG0) ("Enduro" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from its 2024 drill program at the Newmont Lake property. The drilling consisted of four oriented diamond drill holes, totalling 1,248 meters, in the NW Zone of the McLymont Fault. The holes were planned to test a reinterpreted model of structural controls on gold mineralization at the NW Zone; one of several zones of gold mineralization along the McLymont Fault.
Highlights
NW24-02: 10.01 g/t Au, 12.12 g/t Ag, and
0.37% Cu over 12.45m starting at 44.00m, within a broader interval of 24.70m grading 5.17 g/t Au, 6.34 g/t Ag, and0.20% Cu starting at 44.00m.All drill holes intersected gold associated with mineralized structures.
Successfully determined structural orientation and controls of important gold-bearing conduits and areas of concentration.
New structural framework sets the basis for refined targeting in the NW Zone and along the 20km strike of the McLymont Fault.
Cole Evans, CEO of Enduro Metals commented, "The four holes drilled at McLymont in 2024 tested a new structural interpretation of controls on gold-mineralization based on detailed mapping and orientation studies of structures in previously drilled core. Our analysis of the program's results suggests that structures have an apparent dip of 60-80 degrees to the north west. If this is correct, drilling to-date has largely missed these structures, which creates a real opportunity to materially expand the gold system at the NW Zone and beyond.
Developing a better understanding of the structural controls on gold mineralization at the NW Zone and along the 20 km strike of the McLymont fault has greatly enhanced our ability to target potentially economic mineralization and develop a resource."

The NW Zone of McLymont is a high-grade gold target which has been the subject of the majority of the historic drilling on the Newmont Lake Property. Enduro has identified several similar occurrences along the +20 km McLymont Fault. The recent discovery by Seabridge Gold near the property's southern boundary has further enhanced the prospectivity of the McLymont Fault.
The 2024 drilling campaign was designed to test a structural theory derived from observations in historical drill core and assay data. Historic core reveals sinuous, low-angle (sub-parallel to the core axis) structures (see Fig. 2), while assay patterns indicate intervals of mineralization consistent with northwest-dipping controlling structures. This suggests that both recent and historical drilling may have been oriented subparallel to these features, potentially underestimating their extent.
These mineralized structures manifest as fracture zones, discrete vein sets, or skarnified zones, depending on the host lithology. For instance, in carbonate-rich lithologies such as limestone, gold-rich skarn zones are likely to form, whereas clastic sedimentary rocks may host discrete quartz-sulfide veins capable of hosting significant gold mineralization.

Using oriented core, the technical team has developed a new theory with respect to the orientation of gold-bearing structures. Structures were intersected at ~60-80-degree alpha angles, indicating a high likelihood of northwest-dipping orientations. This represents a shift in the geological interpretation of the NW Zone. Future exploration planning will be predicated on this new structural theory.
