Banyan Gold (TSXV:BYN) kicked off its 2025 drilling and exploration program at its 173-square-kilometre AurMac project in the Yukon’s Tombstone gold belt.
The fully funded 30,000-metre program aims to further expand and define the Airstrip zone, which houses a 845,000-ounce inferred resource and intersected 15.9 m of 9.32 grams per ton (g/t) gold in 2024 drilling, and the Powerline zone, which hosts a 6,158,000-ounce inferred resource and yielded 23.1 m of 5.68 g/t gold in 2024 drilling. Both deposits remaining open in all directions.
The Yukon gold miner will also test strategic targets backed by soil anomalies and geophysical surveys, while continuing sampling, metallurgical, scoping and environmental survey work required for AurMac’s preliminary economic assessment planned for Q4 2025.
Leadership insights
“We are excited to be back in the field for a spring start and to follow up on the success from 2024,” Duncan McKay, Banyan Gold’s vice president of exploration, said in a statement. “Last year’s program set the foundation for our 2025 drill campaign with the potential to further delineate relatively high-grade mineralized domains in Airstrip and Powerline. Both deposits have promising targets for expansion and are open in all directions. Geophysical surveys combined with soil sample anomalies provide opportunities for additional drill discoveries on our largely untested land package.”
