Labrador Gold Outlines 2025 Plans for Hopedale and Borden Projects

Labrador Gold Prepares for Robust Exploration in 2025
TORONTO — Labrador Gold Corp. (TSX.V:LAB | OTCQX:NKOSF | FNR: 2N6), affectionately known as LabGold, is gearing up for an exciting year ahead with the approval of its 2025 exploration programs focused on its wholly owned Hopedale and Borden Lake gold projects.
Exploring the Hopedale Project
The Hopedale property is a vast land that encompasses a significant 43-kilometre stretch of the Florence Lake greenstone belt, which hails from the Archean age. While this region has the defining features typical of greenstone belts worldwide, it has been relatively unexplored compared to other areas.
In recent exploration efforts, LabGold has made noteworthy strides, uncovering 11 significant mineral occurrences across the Hopedale landscape. Among these are five gold occurrences alongside varying elements including nickel, copper-silver, and zinc-copper.
Focusing on the Thurber Gold Trend
The upcoming 2025 program is set to intensify focus on the Thurber gold trend, a promising area characterized by four substantial gold occurrences. This trend spans a remarkable three-kilometre strike length which is further defined by anomalous gold discovered in rock and soil samples.
To refine drill targets for the initial drilling phase, an induced polarization/resistivity survey is planned, covering the entire three-kilometre stretch. Additionally, detailed mapping and sampling will take place, particularly at the locations connecting Thurber North to Thurber Boundary, where exploratory work in the previous year indicated a realistic possibility of extending the trend by another 1.5 kilometres.
Further Exploration Plans at Hopedale
Apart from the main trend, the company will also engage in prospecting and mapping activities across electromagnetic conductors identified by surveys in the previous year. Areas like the Jasmine Zn-Cu occurrence and the Misery North Ni-Cu occurrence are targeted, alongside spots where gold anomalies in lake sediment samples are noted, situated along a structural line that connects crucial mineral occurrences.
Borden Lake Project Developments
Labrador Gold's Borden Lake project, located near the town of Chapleau, lies directly adjacent to the Borden gold mine, now under the acquisition drive of Discovery Silver Corp.
Past exploration efforts on the Borden property have revealed two anomalous zones through detailed geochemical studies. One zone stretches 1.3 kilometres in a northwest-southeast orientation, while another extends 1 kilometre north-south. Notably, a previous IP/resistivity survey indicated a chargeability anomaly located close to a till sample containing 48 gold grains, which is a promising sign of the gold potential in the area.
2025 Exploration Initiatives at Borden Lake
In 2025, exploration at Borden Lake will pivot towards prospecting and a biogeochemical survey across approximately 27 line kilometres in the northern section of the property. Given the widespread glacial sand cover, the utilization of biogeochemistry as an exploration tool will be paramount in revealing the hidden treasures of this area.
Ongoing Project Acquisition Strategy
Consistent with its strategy for growth, Labrador Gold is actively seeking opportunities for project acquisitions that offer significant resources. To date, the company has evaluated over 40 projects primarily located in Canada. Focusing on advanced stage gold ventures, LabGold has narrowed its options and conducted thorough technical due diligence on several candidates.
With approximately $19.6 million in cash and liquid securities, Labrador Gold is poised to make strategic acquisitions that will advance its exploration goals significantly.
Promising Outlook for Labrador Gold
As the exploration landscape becomes more promising for Labrador Gold, the company continues to show resilience and ambition in its operations. The identification of gold anomalies across the Hopedale property and Borden Lake project provides a solid foundation for future development.
