West Point Gold (WPGCF) has resumed its maiden resource drill program at the Gold Chain Project in Arizona. The company plans to execute at least 3,000m of reverse circulation drilling, focusing on the Tyro Main Zone. Previous drilling highlights include intersections of 42.8m at 2.50 g/t Au (hole GC24-34) and 89.5m at 1.08 g/t Au (hole GC24-30).
The company has also appointed Conrad Nest as a new Independent Director, bringing over 25 years of experience in mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, and securities law. Peter Mercer has stepped down from the Board but remains an advisor. The company's CEO, Quentin Mai, is scheduled to present at the Metals Investor Forum on March 1st, 2025.
West Point Gold Corp. (WPGCF) has announced significant results from infill sampling on holes GC24-30, GC24-31, and GC24-32 at the Tyro Main Zone. The sampling revealed wider and more continuous mineralization than previously thought.
Key findings include:
- Hole GC24-30: Extended to 89.50m of 1.08 g/t Au, including intervals of 55.61m of 1.44 g/t Au and 36.10m of 2.02 g/t Au
- Hole GC24-32: Now reported as 51.16m of 1.21 g/t Au
The results increased the mineralized package width to over 50 metres, supporting the previously announced exploration target of 15.6 to 31.2 Mt at 1.5 to 2.5 g/t Au. The company plans a 3,000m RC drill program for additional clarity on widths and grades at the Tyro Main Zone.
West Point Gold (WPGCF) has expanded its Gold Chain Project in Arizona by staking 113 additional lode claims on BLM land, increasing the project area by approximately 30%. The project now encompasses 492 lode claims covering 9,840 acres and 15 patented claims covering 282 acres.
The expansion extends northwest along the Union Pass Fault where it meets the Frisco Mine Fault. The new claims cover a major NNW-trending structural corridor hosting rhyolite flow domes, dikes, volcanic centers, and underexplored gold occurrences. Previous sampling in the area has yielded up to 2.07 g/t Au, with mineralization roughly defined over 7 kilometers.
While the company's near-term focus remains on the Tyro Main Zone, high-priority targets include the Tyro Extensions to the South and the Frisco Graben to the North for future drilling.

West Point Gold Corp (WPGCF) has announced its collaboration with the Center to Advance the Science of Exploration to Reclamation in Mining (CASERM), a joint venture between Colorado School of Mines and Virginia Tech. The partnership began with Dr. Thomas Monecke's visit to the Gold Chain project, collecting 50 rock samples for various studies and completing hyperspectral scanning of 1,264m of drill core.
The collaboration focuses on understanding gold deposition at the Tyro vein system, which spans 3.5km and shows various vein styles. The company's geological model suggests that the historical Main Tyro vein is part of a larger epithermal, gold-rich system affected by faulting. The project shares similarities with historically productive Katherine and Arabian veins.
The research aims to reconstruct relative depths of different fault blocks through petrographic studies, fluid inclusion analysis, and hyperspectral scanning to better understand gold deposition conditions and guide exploration efforts.
West Point Gold Corp (WPGCF) has announced significant drill results from its 1,264m diamond drill campaign at the Tyro Main Zone, Gold Chain Project in Arizona. The highlight includes Hole GC24-34 intersecting 42.80m of 2.50 g/t Au, including 11.70m of 5.94 g/t Au from surface.
Key findings include broader mineralized structures in the hanging wall, development of the Tyro Main Zone between two near-parallel structures, and a wider, lower-grade cap south of the White Spar fault. The company's exploration target remains at 15.6 to 31.2 Mt at 1.5 to 2.5 g/t Au, though this is conceptual with insufficient drilling to define a mineral resource.
The Q4 2024 program, consisting of 8 holes, has led to additional infill sampling for holes GC24-30, GC24-31, and GC24-32. The company plans to start the next phase of drilling at Tyro in February 2025.
West Point Gold Corp (WPGCF) has announced initial results from its 1,264m diamond drill campaign at the Tyro Main Zone of its Gold Chain Project in Arizona. Key findings include:
Hole GC24-30 yielded 52.25m of 1.53 g/t Au, including 36.10m of 2.02 g/t Au from 43.50m depth. Hole GC24-31 intersected 50.65m of 0.53 g/t Au from 51.30m. Both holes revealed additional mineralization zones in the hanging wall.
The results align with the company's exploration target of 15.6 to 31.2 Mt at 1.5 to 2.5 g/t Au. The drilling program has revealed that the Tyro Main Zone appears to be wider than initially thought and dips at 80 degrees to the east, rather than being vertical. Assays are still pending for five remaining holes representing approximately 1,025m.
