Harvest Gold (TSXV: HVG) has released a detailed update on its ongoing exploration activities, confirming significant progress on two of its key gold projects in Quebec. According to the company, its diamond drilling campaign at the Mosseau Gold Project is proceeding as scheduled, while a regional till sampling program at its Urban-Barry property has been completed ahead of time and under budget.

Mosseau Drill Program Advances in Northern Corridor

The company announced that five diamond drill holes have been successfully completed at the Mosseau Gold Project. Drilling is taking place in the northern section of the property, an area characterized by historical gold showings and favorable geological conditions. This segment of the mineralized corridor is a central focus of the current exploration effort, aimed at identifying new mineralized zones and expanding the known footprint of gold occurrences.

Harvest Gold stated that drilling operations are on schedule and on budget. The company highlighted the performance of its contractors, citing steady drilling progress by Forage Rouillier and technical support from Explo-Logik. The latter is responsible for field logistics, core logging, and drill core sampling. According to the update, all operational protocols are being followed, and daily progress reports are being submitted to the company’s management team to ensure safety and efficiency throughout the project.

No analytical or assay results from the completed drill holes were disclosed as part of this update. These results are expected to play a critical role in determining future exploration decisions and delineating potential mineralized zones within the property.

Urban-Barry Till Sampling Program Completed

In addition to developments at Mosseau, Harvest Gold confirmed the successful completion of its regional till sampling program at the Urban-Barry property. The purpose of this geochemical survey was to identify new exploration vectors that could signal the presence of gold mineralization below surface.

The sampling campaign was originally designed to include 145 sample sites distributed along a grid system. Sampling lines were oriented in a northwest-southeast direction and spaced roughly 1,000 to 1,500 metres apart. Individual sampling locations were positioned approximately every 250 metres along each line. In total, 137 usable till samples were collected.

According to the company, the majority of samples were taken from depths exceeding one metre, in an effort to reach the lodgment till layer. Lodgment till is a type of glacial deposit that is considered significant for geochemical exploration due to its higher likelihood of containing material derived from nearby mineralized sources. Each collected sample weighed approximately 10 kilograms and was manually gathered to avoid contamination from larger debris like cobbles and pebbles.

Harvest Gold has not yet released geochemical assay results from the till survey but indicated that the data will be used to define and prioritize exploration targets across the broader Urban-Barry project area.

Company’s Regional Exploration Portfolio

Harvest Gold holds three active gold exploration properties in the Urban Barry region of Quebec: Mosseau, Urban-Barry, and LaBelle. Combined, the projects span over 50 kilometers of mineralized shear zones and include 377 claims covering a total area of 20,016.87 hectares. These properties are located approximately 45 to 70 kilometers west of the Windfall deposit, a major gold asset owned by Gold Fields Limited.

The Mosseau property, where drilling is currently ongoing, is situated along the boundary of the Eeyou Istchee-James Bay and Abitibi territories. The company reiterated its commitment to building respectful and transparent relationships with Indigenous communities in the region.

Harvest Gold is engaged in the exploration of near-surface gold deposits and copper-gold porphyry systems. The company operates within jurisdictions considered to be politically stable, with its leadership team and technical advisors bringing a combined experience of more than four centuries in geology, mineral exploration, and financing.
