The plan builds on targets identified by 2025 fieldwork and earlier geological and geochemical data. The company proposed trenching and follow-up sampling at seven priority spots, plus soil sampling on 25-metre spacing across five target areas. Past surface samples showed anomalous metals and inform target selection; they are not drill-confirmed resources or reserves. ## Data ### Target areas in Loljuh’s proposed field program The company proposed trenching and soil sampling at priority anomalies and target areas. Methodology: The seven trench sites and five soil-sampling areas are company proposals, not completed fieldwork. | label | value | unit | period | basis | value_qualifier | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | Priority sites proposed for trenching | 7 | sites | 2026-10-05 | target | exact | | Target areas proposed for soil sampling | 5 | areas | 2026-10-05 | target | exact | Sources: · Download data: [JSON](https://newsverum.com/api/v1/articles/bighorn-proposes-fall-exploration-program-loljuh-bc/data/release-figures?lang=en&format=json) · [CSV](https://newsverum.com/api/v1/articles/bighorn-proposes-fall-exploration-program-loljuh-bc/data/release-figures?lang=en&format=csv) ## Sources - [Bighorn Metals Corp.]() (Source checked: 2026-10-07; Published: 2026-10-05) --- Cite the canonical URL above.
