Q-Gold initiates Second Drill Campaign of 2025 at its Mine Centre Gold Project
Currently targeting strike extension of the gold-bearing veins
TORONTO, Nov. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Q-Gold Resources Ltd. (TSXV: QGR; OTCQB: QGLDF) ( "QGold " or the "Company ") is pleased to announce commencement of its second diamond drilling campaign of 2025 at the Mine Centre Gold Project in northwestern Ontario. Rodren Drilling of Winnipeg, Manitoba has again been engaged as the drilling contractor. Critical Discoveries, a prominent geological consulting firm, also based in Winnipeg, Manitoba has been appointed as Project Manager looking after the drilling, logging and sampling at the new campaign.
The Mine Centre Gold Project is strategically located in the Quetico region of northwestern Ontario, in proximity to the producing Rainy River Mine (New Gold) and the Hammond Reef Development Project (Agnico Eagle).
"Our work to date has focused on just six veins in an area that we know hosts more than fifty gold-bearing structures. This follow-up campaign represents an important step in defining the scale and continuity of mineralization at the historic Foley Mine area. " commented Peter Tagliamonte, President and CEO of QGold. "It’s a very exciting next step and we are very pleased and excited to continue our systematic exploration at Mine Centre where great opportunity for significant value creation exists. "
This follow-up drilling campaign will target high-grade auriferous quartz veins in the vicinity of the historic Foley Mine shaft. The program aims to extend the known strike length and vertical extent of gold-bearing veins identified in previous drilling campaigns, advancing the project toward a maiden NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate.
The Company initiated its 2025 exploration strategy, targeting the historic Foley Gold Mine and adjacent vein systems, by drilling an initial six diamond drill holes within the Mine Centre property.
This second drilling campaign will now build on the successful results from QGold 's 2021, 2022, and the first 2025 drilling programs earlier in the year. The current program objectives include:
- Following up on high-grade vein intersections from previous campaigns
- Extending the strike length and vertical extent of mineralized zones
- Testing additional vein targets within the property
- Advancing data collection toward a maiden NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate
The QGold exploration team in conjunction with Critical Discoveries will oversee all technical aspects of the program, including core logging, sampling protocols, and sample submission to certified assay laboratories.
Results from drilling are expected in Q1 of 2026.
About the Mine Centre Gold Project
Historically, the area around Mine Centre in Ontario was involved in gold mining, most notably the Foley Gold Mine, which operated intermittently from the 1890s until 1927 when operations ceased due to the Great Depression. The Foley Gold Mine was developed starting in the 1890s, with a Foley Shaft being sunk to the 400 ' level. Between 1898 and 1900, 10,500 tons of ore were mined from the 100 ' level, yielding 5,267 ounces of gold. Work continued between 1923 and 1927, including shaft sinking and the excavation of drifts on several levels. Operations halted in 1927 because of the low gold prices and the Great Depression. Foley and MacKenzie Gray mines were later worked again in the 1970s and 1980s. Exploration continued sporadically until recently, when QGold started exploration around Foley again.
