Forge Resources Unveils High-Grade Gold Results at Alotta Project
Forge Resources Corp. has announced promising gold assay results from its ongoing diamond drilling program at the Alotta Project in Yukon. The latest findings reveal a significant intercept of 45.01 grams per tonne of gold over a core length of 3.15 metres, starting at a depth of 286.0 metres. This discovery reinforces the presence of substantial gold mineralization within the project, highlighting its potential for further exploration.
Significant Drilling Results
The results stem from the Phase 2 diamond drill program, with the latest assays confirming high-grade gold content from drill hole ALT-25-012. This hole was specifically analyzed due to the anticipation of high-grade gold, following previous partial assay results released on November 17, 2025. The current analysis includes gold results from selected core samples, which also show a peak reading of 105 g/t over a core length of 1.25 metres.
According to PJ Murphy, CEO of Forge Resources, these findings are “exceptional,” emphasizing the strong potential for high-grade gold in the Alotta region. The company has reiterated its commitment to exploring this area, noting that “the assays reinforce the strong high-grade gold potential at Alotta and complement the broader, bulk-tonnage style mineralization at the Payoff Zone.”
Overall, the mineralization at Alotta remains open in all directions, with the current drilling confirming a mineralized footprint of approximately 4 kilometers by 1 kilometer. All drill holes thus far have encountered porphyry-style, gold-enriched mineralization.
Future Exploration Plans
The ongoing exploration efforts are critical, as the first 80 metres of drill hole ALT-25-012 contain various semi-massive polymetallic sulphide veins and quartz veins that are likely to impact overall gold grades. The completion of remaining assays and structural data compilation will guide future drilling orientations to effectively target these vein systems.
Details about the drilling program indicate that a total of 1,262.75 metres of drilling has been completed across four holes during this phase. The geological characteristics of the region include granodiorite and porphyritic rocks, which contain widespread alteration and veining indicative of mineralization.
With results from the multi-element analysis yet to be released, Forge Resources remains optimistic about the ongoing exploration at the Alotta Project. The company is also taking part in the Yukon Geoscience Forum, where select drill core samples from Alotta are being showcased.
The Alotta Project covers approximately 4,723 hectares and consists of 230 mineral claims. It is located about 50 kilometers southeast of the Casino deposit, one of the largest undeveloped gold-copper porphyry projects globally.
As Forge Resources continues its exploration efforts, the mining community will closely monitor the results for further insights into the project’s potential and its implications for future gold production in the region.
