Wesdome Gold Mines Unveils Significant Discoveries at Dubuisson
Exciting New Discoveries at Wesdome's Dubuisson Deposit
Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX: WDO, OTCQX: WDOFF) is thrilled to reveal findings from its ongoing exploration efforts at the Dubuisson deposit, situated in the Kiena Mine Complex. The new mineralized zone has been confirmed with drill hole DB-25-068, showing impressive results with 4.1 g/t Au over 25.8 metres.
Details of the New Mineralized Zone
This recently identified zone lies approximately 100 metres below the Dubuisson North Zone, interpreted to be positioned between the North and South zones. The results from this drill hole highlight an encouraging opportunity for further expansion of the Dubuisson deposit, particularly at depth, showcasing both the grade and thickness of this mineralization.
Key Highlights from Recent Drilling
Notable results from the new Dubuisson Zone include:
- Hole DB-25-068: 4.1 g/t Au over 25.8 metres (unevaluated)
- Including: 6.1 g/t Au over 6.1 metres
According to Anthea Bath, the President and CEO of Wesdome, the new findings exhibit strong potential for expansion within existing infrastructure, located merely 350 metres from the Level 33 exploration area. The geological characteristics of this zone are comparable to those at the adjacent Goldex mine, indicating similar potential for bulk-tonnage underground deposits within Wesdome's land package.
Exploration Campaign Progress
Wesdome’s exploration campaign at Dubuisson commenced in June and has been marked by significant achievements. As of mid-October, a total of 41 drill holes and 11,361 metres have been completed during the 2025 drilling campaign. This pace of exploration underscores the underreported nature of this promising deposit, demonstrating a clear pathway to uncovering additional mineralization.
Future Plans and Expectations
Looking ahead, at least one follow-up hole is scheduled before the close of the current hydro-drilling season, with further ambitious programs planned for summer 2026. A comprehensive update on exploration efforts and results is slated for release later this year.
Technical Overview of the Dubuisson Deposit
The Dubuisson deposit boasts an impressive probable reserve of 36,400 ounces at a grade of 5.8 g/t, alongside an indicated resource of 18,000 ounces at 4.6 g/t Au, while an inferred resource stands at 55,600 ounces at 5.4 g/t Au. The deposit comprises a distinctive system of various mineralized veins embedded within a host of geological units, illustrating the complexity yet potential of the site.
With continued exploration, the prospects for defining a broader mineralized interval at Dubuisson are bright, with many intervals returning grades comparable to or exceeding previously established cut-off grades. The excitement surrounding these results enhances Wesdome's positioning as a formidable player in the gold mining sector.
