Published: · Updated:

Auriginal Mining reported assays from four holes at its Roger project in Quebec’s Chibougamau district. Hole AUR-26-12 returned 45.5 metres grading 1.05 g/t gold from 397 metres down-hole, including 8.0 metres at 4.37 g/t and 2.2 metres at 12.2 g/t; the release also reported copper, silver and zinc in the narrower interval.
The company said the 2026 mineral-resource estimate expected before year-end will exclude this year’s drilling and reset the historical estimate using a revised interpretation and modern database. A later update incorporating 2026 drilling was targeted for the first half of 2027; reported down-hole lengths are not necessarily true widths, and the results do not establish added resources.
