Scottie Resources Corp. (TSXV: SCOT) Announces Final Assays from 2025 Drilling
Scottie Resources Corp. is excited to share the final assay results from its extensive 2025 drilling program at the Blueberry Contact Zone, located at the Scottie Gold Mine Project in British Columbia. The Project, easily accessible by road, lies 35 kilometers north of Stewart, BC, and has recently been highlighted in a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) released on October 28, 2025.
In a record-breaking year, Scottie Resources conducted over 27,300 meters of drilling across 126 holes, which includes 17 specialized holes dedicated to ground stability and water studies. This groundwork is crucial as the Project moves towards potential future mine development.
The drilling program has yielded impressive results, with the highest gold intercept recorded on the property to date, showcasing 30.1 grams per tonne over 23.65 meters, as detailed in a news release from September 8, 2025.
Nearly half of the drilled holes returned significant gold grades, with several showing exceptionally high values. Dr. Thomas Mumford, President of Scottie Resources, stated, "2025 was our most important drill season yet, marked not only by the volume of drilling but also by the quality and consistency of the gold we encountered. Our refined drilling efforts have revealed repeated strong gold zones across various areas of the Project. We are currently finalizing our interpretation of these results and will announce our 2026 exploration plans shortly."
With over $26 million in flow-through funds secured, Scottie Resources is fully equipped to launch its most ambitious drilling program to date, pushing towards a Feasibility Study set for the first half of 2027.
Recent Highlights from the Blueberry Contact Zone
The recently concluded drilling campaign has provided a wealth of data, with all significant intercepts now reported. The Blueberry Contact Zone has evolved from a promising vein showing to a key development asset, characterized by a mineralized corridor exceeding 1,550 meters in strike length and depth of 525 meters, showcasing high-grade gold veins rich in sulphides.
Scottie's ongoing exploration has unveiled four new high-grade zones in the past six years, reinforcing the belief that these zones are part of a larger interconnected gold system. The PEA indicates a low-capital Direct-Ship Ore (DSO) operation, projecting an after-tax NPV(5%) of $215.8 million CAD at a gold price of $2,600/oz, with potential for even greater returns through a toll milling option at the nearby Premier Mill.
The 2025 bulk sample has demonstrated the Project's capability to rapidly transition from permitting to mining, generating approximately $9 million in revenue in under a year. This success underscores the model's scalability and efficiency.
