Heritage Mining (CSE:HML) identified visible gold in drill core from its ~3,886-hectare Melba mine project, located 90 kilometres from Timmins in Northeastern Ontario.

The drillhole in question, ML3900-002, yielded the visible gold outside of the high-grade interval announced on February 9, 2026, with coarse gold identified in half the 73.3 m measured, adding conviction to numerous historical results to be confirmed during the ongoing drilling program.

Melba is located near the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt along the Ross Fault, which is associated with development-stage and historic producing gold mines, including McEwen’s more than 1-million-ounce Grey Fox mine ~22 km away, as well as the more than 1-million-ounce Ross mine ~16km away.
