Canadian Gold Resources Uncovers High-Grade Gold-Silver Mineralization in Surface Sampling at Lac Arsenault Four Best Samples Return Grades up to 28.9 g/t Gold and 452 g/t Silver
Rhea-AI Summary
Canadian Gold Resources (TSXV: CAN) has reported promising surface sampling results from its Lac Arsenault Property in Québec's Gaspé Peninsula. The June 2025 exploration program revealed significant high-grade gold and silver mineralization, with top samples yielding up to 28.9 g/t gold and 452 g/t silver.
The sampling focused on the Baker and Mersereau veins, with four notable samples showing exceptional grades, including high lead content up to 25.7%. Importantly, the company discovered new mineralization in previously overlooked Type-4 veins, expanding the property's potential. The company is now advancing toward a bulk sampling program, with permitting currently underway.
Positive
- High-grade surface samples with up to 28.9 g/t gold and 452 g/t silver
- Discovery of new mineralization zones in previously overlooked areas
- 100% ownership of the Lac Arsenault Property
- Advancement towards bulk sampling program
Negative
- Surface grab samples are inherently selective and may not represent overall mineralization
- Bulk sampling permits still pending
Dieppe, New Brunswick--(Newsfile Corp. - July 9, 2025) - Canadian Gold Resources Ltd. (TSXV: CAN) ("Canadian Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to report exciting new surface sampling results from its
High-grade assay results continue to validate Lac Arsenault's strong potential to host a precious metals system, while also identifying new zones of mineralization in previously overlooked areas.
Sampling Highlights
- Sample BVA2025-004: 28.9 g/t gold, 306 g/t silver
- Sample BVA2025-006: 22.9 g/t gold, 399 g/t silver,
17.8% lead - Sample Mersereau (unnumbered): 25.5 g/t gold, 447 g/t silver,
18.4% lead - Sample BVA2025-008: 5.32 g/t gold, 452 g/t silver,
25.7% lead
These grades are significant for surface sampling and support the near-surface potential for bulk-tonnage extraction.

Exploration Program Summary
The June 2025 program included mechanical trenching and sampling along the Baker and Mersereau veins. In addition to confirming historical data, new assays revealed broader zones of high-grade gold, silver, and lead mineralization than previously recognized.
Importantly, three samples from Type-4 veins-historically considered "poor in metals"-returned mineralization of economic interest. For example, Sample BV2025-002 returned:
- 1.29 g/t gold
- 39.0 g/t silver
1.04% zinc
"We consider these sample results to be significant." said Mark Smethurst, P.Geo., VP Exploration for Canadian Gold Resources. "Not only have we confirmed high-grade gold and silver in our primary structures, but we're now seeing mineralization in areas that had be previously written off by prior operators. This discovery opens new potential across the property and puts us in a strong position as we advance toward bulk sampling."
Next Steps
Permitting for the bulk sample program is underway. Additional surface work and modeling will continue in parallel to expand the understanding of mineralization throughout the vein system.

All technical information in this release has been reviewed and approved by Mark Smethurst, P.Geo., a Director of Canadian Gold Resources who is a Qualified Person as defined under National Instrument 43-101.
The above-mentioned surface grab samples were collected from mineralized quartz veins exposed on surface. Investors are cautioned that grab samples are inherently selective and serve to prove the presence of mineralization only. Grab sample were put into sample bags, marked and sealed on-site at the sample location. The samples were then transported in secured bags directly from the sample location sites to Actlabs, Hamilton. All are ISO/IEC 17025 accredited labs. Analysis for precious metals were completed by Fire Assay. Certified standards and blanks are inserted at a rate of two standards and a blank per 10 samples, duplicates are also completed.
