Kenorland identifies gold-in-till anomalies at two Ontario projects

The projects are currently held under an option agreement with a subsidiary of Centerra Gold.

Kenorland Minerals has identified significant gold-in-till geochemical anomalies at the Western Wabigoon and Flora projects in north-western Ontario, Canada.

The projects are currently held under an option agreement with a subsidiary of Canadian gold mining company Centerra Gold.

A gold-in-till trend extending approximately 19km along a major structural corridor has been defined by systematic geochemical surveys at the Western Wabigoon project.

Infill sampling in 2025 further refined several high-tenor gold-in-till anomalies across the W1, W2 and W3 target areas.

Kenorland said gold grain analysis from heavy mineral concentrate (HMC) till sampling reinforced the findings, with the W2 target producing a strong, continuous gold-grain anomaly, including normalised counts of up to 251 grains per sample along a 4km trend open to the south-west.

The W2 target area includes various multi-gram per tonne gold showings from trenching and shallow drilling within the historically known Sorry Mac trend.

Surface work by Kenorland confirmed gold mineralisation along this trend, with rock samples up to 7.75 grams per tonne (g/t) gold, significantly expanding the historical footprint into the current W2 target.

At the Flora project, geochemical surveys in 2024 and 2025 outlined the F1 target as a large-scale, high-tenor gold-in-till anomaly extending more than 7km within a sheared diorite. This coincides with a coherent 7km trend of strong gold grain results from HMC till sampling.

Mapping and prospecting identified high-grade gold mineralisation, with rock samples returning up to 31.70g/t gold in the central area and up to 17.40g/t gold approximately 3km to the north-east. The company did not undertake any historical drilling in the F1 area.

The company collected all 2025 HMC till samples under the supervision of its employees.

Kenorland is currently working on planning for the 2026 field campaign, with up to 5,000m of diamond drilling proposed at Western Wabigoon, focusing on the priority W2 target. The drilling will test key structural intersections associated with strong gold-in-till and gold grain anomalies.

At Flora, work in 2026 will focus on further surface exploration including mapping and prospecting to refine targets for a future drill programme.

The earn-in agreement allows Centerra to earn up to a 70% interest in each project by funding staged exploration and delivering a preliminary economic assessment.

A joint venture will be established after earn-in, with Kenorland retaining the right to a carried interest through to completion of a pre-feasibility study.
