GoldHaven Resources has identified a new high-grade tungsten-bearing skarn at its Magno Project in northwestern British Columbia (BC), Canada.
The results were generated through the company’s 2026 helicopter-supported geochemical sampling programme, which collected 108 rock samples from previously underexplored areas of the property.

A sample collected south of Lamb Mountain returned 8,850 parts per million (ppm) tungsten, equivalent to 0.885% tungsten content or around 1.12% tungsten trioxide, and 1,755ppm copper.
This site, previously not recognised as a skarn exploration target, was found in a geological setting similar to GoldHaven’s existing Dead Goat tungsten skarn zone, where mineralisation is linked with carbonate-hosted skarn near intrusive contacts.
Separately, a granite sample collected near the Lamb Mountain trenches contained 710ppm tungsten, suggesting additional mineralisation nearby.
Elsewhere on the Magno property, the company identified a new molybdenum-bearing zone.
A sample from an area of the Cassiar Batholith near the historic Cassiar Moly deposit recorded 2,800ppm molybdenum.
Two other samples from a previously unexplored portion of the Cassiar Batholith returned 321ppm and 284ppm molybdenum, highlighting a wider presence of this metal across the project.
GoldHaven plans to review the new findings alongside existing geological, geochemical, and geophysical data to prioritise additional exploration activities.
According to the company, these results may indicate potential for further discovery of tungsten-bearing skarns and molybdenum zones within the Magno Project’s broader magmatic-hydrothermal system.
The company has stated its intention to continue advancing its established tungsten and silver-lead-zinc exploration targets on the Magno Project.
GoldHaven president and CEO Rob Birmingham said: “The discovery of a new high-grade tungsten occurrence returning 8,850ppm tungsten is an exciting development for GoldHaven.
“Our 2026 exploration programme continues to demonstrate that Magno’s mineral potential extends well beyond our existing drill targets.
“With additional tungsten and molybdenum occurrences now identified across previously underexplored areas, we see significant opportunities to continue expanding our exploration footprint.”
In April 2026, GoldHaven began drill targeting for a 2026 exploration programme at its Magno Project.
