Gladiator Metals Corp. reports exploration and permitting developments for the Whitehorse Copper Project in Yukon. Company news centers on drilling, assay results, and target generation across Cowley, Cub East, Little Chief, Valerie, Great Southern, and related prospects in the Whitehorse Copper Belt.
Recurring updates describe copper-gold-magnetite skarn mineralization, molybdenum and silver credits, resource delineation work, and geophysical programs using gravity and induced polarization surveys. News also covers Yukon exploration permitting, including the Class 3 Quartz Exploration Permit, and the company’s use of expanded drill access to test extensions, near-surface zones, and new targets within the project area.
Gladiator Metals (OTCQB: GDTRF) reported new drill results from 28 holes (4,218 m) at the Cowley deposit within the Whitehorse Copper Project, aimed at resource delineation under Class 3 permit conditions. All reported holes intersected copper-gold-silver-molybdenum skarn, with several broad, near-surface zones.
Key intervals include CPG-158 with 49.0 m at 1.72% Cu, 0.27 g/t Au, 11.44 g/t Ag and 800 ppm Mo from 74.0 m, including 40.0 m at 1.98% Cu and 920 ppm Mo from 76.0 m; and CPG-153 with 72.8 m at 0.62% Cu and 1,018 ppm Mo from 57.2 m, including 23.4 m at 1.16% Cu and 1,226 ppm Mo.
According to Gladiator, drilling has expanded from an initial 8,000 m to more than 14,000 m at Cowley, with a second rig expected by the end of August to accelerate infill work on the Southern Limb. The company also outlines a fully funded 2026–27 exploration budget of >$40 million and >100,000 m of planned drilling across the Whitehorse belt.
Gladiator Metals (TSXV: GLAD, OTCQB: GDTRF, FSE: ZX7) has applied to list CHESS Depositary Interests (CDIs) on the National Stock Exchange of Australia (NSX). Each CDI will represent one common share, enabling direct trading by Australian investors and aiming to increase international investor awareness.
According to the company, the NSX listing remains subject to all required regulatory approvals and is expected to complete in Q3 2026. Gladiator has received exemptive relief from the British Columbia Securities Commission allowing it to continue as a “venture issuer” under several Canadian securities instruments after the NSX listing.
Gladiator Metals (OTCQB: GDTRF) reported new diamond drill and rock chip assay results from the Cub East target within the Bear Cub trend at the Whitehorse Copper Project in Yukon. Five additional holes (BCG-024, -025, -030, -031, -035) delivered multiple broad copper-gold-silver intercepts, including 32.0m @ 1.36% Cu, 0.63 g/t Au and 10.93 g/t Ag from 178.0m, with 18.0m @ 2.12% Cu, 1.06 g/t Au and 16.33 g/t Ag from 188.0m, and 38.0m @ 1.20% Cu, 0.43 g/t Au and 10.29 g/t Ag from 168.0m.
The high-grade core at Cub East is now confirmed over >300m of strike within a 900m IP and gravity anomaly, and remains open along strike and at depth. Surface rock chips up to 2.37% Cu, 3.24 g/t Au and 38.0 g/t Ag, located ~300m southeast of existing drilling, support further strike potential. According to Gladiator, planned 2026 drilling across Whitehorse has been increased from 35,000m to >50,000m, including at least 8,000m of resource delineation drilling at Cowley under Class 3 permit conditions.
Gladiator Metals (OTCQB: GDTRF) reported first 11 drill holes (1,367 m) from the Cowley prospect within the Whitehorse Copper Project, Yukon, under Class 3 permits. Highlights include 47 m @ 1.23% Cu and 8.3 m @ 4.99% Cu with strong Ag and Mo values.
The company noted elevated molybdenum grades up to 3,208 ppm, potentially adding by‑product value. The Cowley program has been expanded from 8,000 m to over 10,000 m, within a fully funded 2026 exploration budget above $15 million and ~40,000–45,000 m of drilling.
Gladiator Metals (OTCQB: GDTRF) reported new Cub East drill assays, extending high-grade copper-gold-silver strike continuity to >80m with 40m step-outs.
Key intercepts include 35.9m @ 2.68% Cu & 1.35 g/t Au, including 22m @ 4.24% Cu & 2.16 g/t Au. Drilling targets a 900m IP/gravity anomaly within the 1.5km Bear Cub trend. In 2026, about 45,000m of drilling is planned across the Whitehorse Copper Project, including ~8,000m at Cowley for resource delineation and a targeted maiden NI 43-101 inferred resource.
Gladiator Metals (OTCQB:GDTRF) reported first drill results from the new Cub East discovery at the Whitehorse Copper Project. Three holes intersected long, high-grade copper-gold-silver skarn zones, including 24m @ 3.03% Cu and 1.08 g/t Au from 190m.
Six holes (1,638m) have now been completed at Cub East, with assays for three holes. According to the company, mineralization shows more than 300m of strike continuity and remains open, supported by strong IP and gravity anomalies.
