Notably, the flagship Isabella Pearl gold mine is currently in production, situated on the Isabella Pearl mineralized trend.
Fortitude Gold recently announced significant high-grade gold drill intercepts at its East Camp Douglas lithocap system, underlined by the discovery of an intersection between two faults feeding high-grade gold into the system. High-grade intercepts include 3.05 meters grading 5.57 grams per tonne (g/t) gold within a broader intercept of 12.19 meters grading 2.90 g/t gold.

Recent drill results have added ounces to the County Line resource, with intercepts such as 16.76 meters grading 2.19 g/t gold.
