This morning, Spanish Mountain Gold (SPA:TSXV, SPAUF:OTCQB) announced assay results from seven drill holes as part of its 2025 fall diamond drill program at its Spanish Mountain Gold project. All drill holes were drilled within the Orca Fault target, which continues to be a major contributor of higher-grade gold mineralization within the heart of the Main Deposit. The highlight drill result from today’s release intersected 1.35 g/t Au over 133.6m and included several zones of mineralization. Most notably, within the 133.6m intercept, there was a 25.5m high-grade core at an average grade of 4.28 g/t (from 132m downhole). The Company has now completed 9,864m of drilling as part of the 9,000-10,000m 2025 fall drill program, which is now continuing into 2026. Assays remain pending from five additional drill holes within the Orca Fault target area.

Drill assay results continue to intersect higher-grade mineralization over ~530m in strike length in the Orca Fault target area, and the continuity can now be traced across multiple parallel, adjacent drill sections over 80-150m. We are maintaining our BUY rating and $0.80/share target price on Spanish Mountain Gold.
