Golden Cariboo Plans Step-Out and Infill Drilling to Expand Quesnelle Gold Resource

Golden Cariboo Resources Ltd. (CSE:GCC) (OTC:GCCFF) (WKN:A402CQ) (FSE:3TZ) is gearing up for its next stage of drilling at the Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine Property near Hixon, in central British Columbia. The announcement, made via NEWMEDIAWIRE, follows the company's inaugural NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE), which outlined an Indicated resource of 6.2 million tonnes grading 0.763 g/t AuEq (containing 152,000 ounces of gold equivalent) and an Inferred resource of 42.3 million tonnes grading 0.600 g/t AuEq (containing 815,000 ounces of gold equivalent). The upcoming program will focus on 100-metre step-out drilling at the Halo and North Hixon zones to test extensions of mineralization, alongside infill drilling to reduce drill spacing to approximately 50-metre centres in priority areas. This additional data is expected to support future resource model updates and potentially upgrade portions of the Inferred resource to the Indicated category.

Company President and CEO J. Frank Callaghan expressed enthusiasm about the progress, noting that the initial resource was achieved with less than 8,500 metres of drilling in only 24 drill holes along a 1,150-metre strike length within a single 3.2 km geological corridor. He highlighted that this is just one of five corridors within the permitted 789-hectare area, and with three drills onsite, the company is eager to continue. The supporting NI 43-101 Technical Report is being prepared for filing on SEDAR+ within the prescribed regulatory timeframe. The technical information has been reviewed and approved by Sue Bird, a Qualified Person under NI 43-101. Golden Cariboo Resources is focused on unlocking the potential of one of British Columbia's most historic gold districts, with its Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine Property encompassing 96,183 hectares along a prolific 90 km gold trend. The property borders and partially interweaves with Osisko Gold Group Inc.'s Cariboo Gold Project and lies along the highly prospective Spanish and Eureka thrust fault corridor. The permitted portion hosts the historic Quesnelle Quartz gold-silver deposit, originally discovered in 1865 during the Cariboo Gold Rush, and ongoing drilling and trenching programs are demonstrating the potential for a much larger mineralized system.
