(Sharecast News) - Fulcrum Metals said on Monday that it has completed its latest ground exploration programme at the Big Bear Gold Project in Ontario, as it continued to build on encouraging results from earlier campaigns that identified a three-kilometre gold-bearing corridor.
The AIM-traded firm said the autumn programme included 637 soil samples collected across the Schreiber-Pyramid, Twomey, and Schreiber Johnston Gap areas.
Samples would be sent to AGAT Laboratories for multi-element assay in the coming days.
The work expanded on last year's survey, which identified a corridor of elevated gold values and several drill-ready targets.
Key outcomes from the 2025 campaign included extending soil grids over areas that previously returned anomalous gold results of up to 929 parts per billion, establishing new grids for follow-up work around the Schreiber-Pyramid and Twomey zones, and confirming a strong anomaly west of Schreiber Pyramid at the Schreiber Johnston Gap, which remained open to the west.
"Big Bear is a highly prospective project with multiple drill and exploration targets, high grade gold in soils of up to 0.93 grams per tonne and rock samples returning up to 139 grams per tonne," said chief executive Ryan Mee.
"The objective of this latest soil sampling programme is to build on the success of the 2023 programme and generate additional exploration and drill prospects in what is a proven high grade gold corridor open for expansion.
"We look forward to reporting on the assay results from this autumn exploration programme, which complements the on-going work being conducted on the company's tailings projects in Kirkland Lake, Ontario."
Fulcrum said previous work at Big Bear, located near Schreiber, Ontario, identified a regional-scale shear zone with similarities to the Musselwhite gold deposit and outlined nine areas of highly anomalous soil values.
The project currently includes four drill-ready prospects and five further targets at various stages of development, while geophysical surveys have pinpointed additional zones of interest for future exploration.
At 1114 GMT, shares in Fulcrum Metals were down 0.34% at 7.35p.
