- Military Metals (CSE:MILI) discovered three mineralized boulder samples along a central road at West Gore that returned up to 11.45 per cent antimony and 21.5 g/t gold, indicating high-grade mineralization
- A previously unknown antimony soil anomaly was identified through a 78-sample grid over a newly interpreted geological structure
- Military Metals plans follow-up soil sampling and reconnaissance to trace the bedrock source and expand exploration around the anomaly
- Military Metals stock (CSE:MILI) last traded at $0.45
Military Metals (CSE:MILI) announced promising results from recent soil sampling and boulder analysis at its wholly-owned, past-producing West Gore antimony-gold project. The company revealed that mineralized boulders were discovered at three distinct locations along a central road bisecting the project area, near the intersection with a key geological structure targeted by the soil campaign.
The boulders, grouped into three samples, yielded significant concentrations of antimony (Sb) and gold (Au):
- Sample 247234: Angular cobbles of country rock crosscut by 2–5 cm wide stibnite-bearing quartz veins returned 6.58 per cent Sb and 0.992 g/t Au.
- Sample 247233: Subangular quartz cobbles with semi-massive to massive stibnite yielded 11.45 per cent Sb and an impressive 21.5 g/t Au.
- Sample 247235: Angular aplitic quartz cobbles located near Sample 247233 returned 3.49 g/t Au and 0.049 per cent Sb, indicating gold-rich quartz float.
These discoveries are situated along a road that intersects a geologically interpreted structure, suggesting proximity to a potential bedrock source.
In addition to the boulder findings, the team identified a previously unknown antimony soil anomaly. This anomaly was revealed through a 78-sample soil orientation grid conducted in July 2025 over a geological structure parallel to the one hosting the historic mine. The survey targeted three geophysical anomalies derived from reprocessed 2021 drone magnetic data.
Target 3, located approximately 650 metres southwest of the main historical workings and 250 metres southwest of the Brook Shaft, showed a concentrated zone of elevated antimony values. The upper quartile of antimony assays was geographically clustered along the northeastern margin of the survey grid, highlighting a discrete area of anomalous soil chemistry.
“We knew that West Gore has been under-explored since mining operations terminated in the early 1900’s,” The company’s CEO, Scott Eldridge, stated in a news release. “The company is thrilled that our early exploration reconnaissance on the project is already beginning to develop new exploration targets overlooked by previous operators, highlighted by the newly identified soil anomaly and high-grade surface samples of 11.45 per cent and 6.58 per cent antimony along with 3.49 grams per tonne gold. These results are another important step towards rediscovering this critical Canadian mineral asset.”
Military Metals Corp. plans to follow up with expanded soil sampling and detailed reconnaissance to delineate the extent of the anomaly and identify the bedrock source of the mineralized boulders.
These results mark a significant step forward in the company’s exploration efforts at West Gore, potentially unlocking new zones of high-grade antimony and gold mineralization in a historically productive district.
Military Metals stock (CSE:MILI) last traded at $0.45 and is down 6.19 per cent since the year began, but up 5.81 per cent over the past three months.
