Golden Cariboo Resources has completed five drill holes targeting the Halo zone, adding hole QGQ26-30 to its upcoming maiden mineral resource estimate to enhance geological model confidence.

Golden Cariboo Resources Ltd. (CSE:GCC) (OTC:GCCFF) announced the completion of five diamond drill holes, QGQ26-30 through QGQ26-34, targeting high priority structural features adjacent to the established Halo zone on its Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine property in British Columbia. Core logging and sampling are underway, with assays being conducted by MSALabs of Prince George. Notably, drill hole QGQ26-30, which tests the western contact of the Halo zone, will be included in the Company's upcoming maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE). Ongoing property-wide data validation allowed the addition of this hole, expanding the MRE database to encompass up to 9 historical drill holes alongside the Company's first 30 surface diamond drill holes.
President and CEO Frank Callaghan stated, "Integrating hole QGQ26-30 into our upcoming maiden Mineral Resource Estimate is a pivotal addition that directly enhances the scale and confidence of our geological model. Property wide data validation allowed us to expand the MRE dataset to thirty of our surface diamond drill holes alongside historical data, while our latest drilling campaign successfully stepped out to test structural contacts and the corridor toward the Main zone." The company continues to define the system's footprint while maintaining cost-effective, year-round drilling.
The Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine property spans 94,899 hectares along a favorable corridor adjacent to the Spanish and Eureka thrust faults. Historically, over 101 placer gold creeks on the 90-kilometer trend have recorded production. The property includes the Quesnelle Quartz gold-silver deposit, discovered in 1865, which has been developed over a footprint of about 150m x 150m at the Main zone. The geological setting shows similarities with the Spanish Mountain gold deposit, located 120 km southeast, which is classified as a sediment-hosted vein (SHV) deposit of the epizonal orogenic subclass.
The technical information has been reviewed and approved by Gordon Gibson, a Professional Geoscientist registered with APEGBC and a Qualified Person under NI 43-101. For more details, visit the company's website at www.goldencariboo.com.
