GoldMining Reports New Drill Results Highlighting Exploration Potential at São Jorge Project, Pará State, Brazil
Rhea-AI Summary
GoldMining (NYSE American: GLDG) reported additional assay results from its 2025 RC drilling program at the 100% owned São Jorge Project in Pará, Brazil on January 6, 2026. Highlights include a best intercept of 12 m @ 2.38 g/t Au (including 1 m @ 22.08 g/t Au) at William South and other RC intercepts >1 g/t Au at multiple targets.
The Company completed 9,533 m of drilling in 2025 (on‑budget) and says preliminary IP processing shows a broad chargeability/resistivity anomaly at William South similar to the São Jorge deposit; drilling to date has tested the southern flank and drilling of the IP core is planned in 2026.

Recent news events, especially exploration updates and corporate actions, have generally seen price moves that align with the underlying news tone, with no recorded divergences.
Over the last several months, GoldMining highlighted multiple developments tied to its projects and capital structure. On Oct 20, 2025, initial 2025 RC drilling results at São Jorge, including new prospects such as William South and Dragon West, preceded a +9.15% move. An ATM renewal for up to US$50 million on Dec 8, 2025 coincided with a -8.9% reaction. A management change effective Jan 1, 2026 and ongoing work at São Jorge drew a flat price response. Today’s additional São Jorge drill results extend this exploration‑driven narrative.
Market Pulse Summary
This announcement expands on the 2025 exploration program at São Jorge, reporting new RC intercepts such as 12 m @ 2.38 g/t Au including 1 m @ 22.08 g/t Au at William South and confirming a broader 9,533 m drilling effort. The work outlines a 12 km x 7 km mineral system across a 46,000 hectare property. Investors may track follow-up drilling over the core IP anomaly, pending assays from additional targets, and how these results feed into future resource delineation.

The reverse circulation ("RC") drilling results detailed in this release comprise the continuation of the William South drilling program ("the Program"), a high priority part of the broader 2025 São Jorge Project exploration program which the Company designed to test new targets outside of the known areas of mineralization.
Highlights:
- William South RC Drilling Results:
- 12 metres ("m") at 2.38 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") from 13 m depth, including 1 m at 22 g/t Au (SJRC-048-25)
- 4 m at 1.11 g/t Au from 46 m depth (SJRC-049-25)
- 1 m at 1.23 g/t Au from 16 m depth (SJRC-047-25)
- Preliminary processing of Induced Polarisation ("IP") data indicates drilling completed at William South to date has only tested the southern flank of a broad chargeability anomaly, which is similar in scale and intensity to the known IP signature of the São Jorge Deposit.
- Drilling over the highest chargeability core of the William South IP anomaly is planned in 2026.
- A total of 9,533 metres of drilling was safely and successfully completed on-budget during 2025.
- Exploration results received to date support the broader potential for discovery and delineation of new zones of mineralization across the 46,000 hectare São Jorge Project.
Alastair Still, Chief Executive Officer of GoldMining, commented: "GoldMining is further encouraged by the additional positive drill results yielded from the 2025 RC drilling completed to date at the William South prospect, an emerging gold discovery located a short distance from the known São Jorge gold deposit. The geology and geophysical signature at William South resembles the São Jorge gold deposit itself based on exploration to date. This work has been encouraging of the potential for this area, highlighting that significant additional systematic exploration is required, especially over the core of the IP anomaly which has not yet been tested by drilling.
In conjunction with William South, we continue to explore additional targets across the broad 12 km x 7 km geochemical footprint overlying the São Jorge property-scale mineral system, where we have additional exploration results pending. The excellent infrastructure at the
Project Overview
The São Jorge Gold Project is located in the Tapajós gold district (see Figure 1) in the south-central portion of the Amazon Craton. The São Jorge gold deposit is a granite-hosted, intrusion-related gold deposit which is a similar deposit style to the Tocantinzinho gold mine located approximately 80 km northwest of São Jorge. Exploration activities at the Project carried out by the Company over the past two years have successfully delineated several new exploration targets comprising gold ± copper ± molybdenum ± silver soil geochemical anomalies, which cumulatively outlines a large mineral system (see news releases dated March 18 and April 14, 2025).
2025 São Jorge Mineral System Exploration Program
The São Jorge mineral system is defined by a comprehensive exploration data set which the Company has developed over previous campaigns. Surrounding the previously delineated São Jorge deposit, which has a defined 1.4 km strike length, the broader mineral system comprises a zone of contiguous surface geochemical anomalies over an area of 12 km x 7 km, which the Company interprets to be the surface expression of a broad intrusive related gold system.
The 2025 São Jorge exploration program successfully and safely completed a total of 9,533 m of drilling, which exceeded the total planned meterage of 9,000 m while remaining on–budget. The Project benefitted from the introduction of RC drilling which is cheaper and more rapid than diamond core, while providing greater depth penetration and assay reliability than auger drilling. The Program comprised 3,862 m diamond core, 3,528 m RC and 2,143 m auger drilling.
Of the 84 RC holes drilled to date across the Project for a total of 3,528 metres, assays have been returned for 78 holes, with the remaining 18 holes pending assays. To date, four target areas have returned >1 g/t Au intercepts from RC drilling: William South, William North, Ivonette and Dragon West (see Figure 2).
Previously announced initial intercepts at the William South prospect included 4 m at 1.78 g/t Au from 12 m depth (see news release October 20, 2025).
New assay results are presented herein for additional drilling at the William South Prospect, which is located 1.5 km north of the Deposit. The full drilling program at William South comprised 20 RC holes drilled on three fences to test beneath a broad zone of elevated gold-in-soil and auger drilling geochemistry. The western–most drill fence returned the best assay results from weathered monzogranite containing disseminated pyrite mineralization. The strongest mineralized intercept to date, comprising 12 m at 2.38 g/t Au (including 1 m at 22.08 g/t Au), occurs adjacent to a contact between monzogranite and syenogranite intrusive phases. A similar intrusive contact localizes strain, hydrothermal alteration and gold mineralization at the São Jorge deposit. Mineralization remains open along strike and to depth.
Preliminary processing of the recently completed 40 line km of IP surveying indicates that a broad east-west oriented high tenor chargeability anomaly, with coincident high resistivity, occurs at the William South target. Overall, the William South geophysical signature is similar in nature, scale and intensity to the São Jorge deposit. Drilling completed to date primarily targeted the highest tenor gold-in-soil geochemical anomaly, which occurs south of the core geophysical anomaly. Future drilling will extend northwards to test the chargeability / resistivity high.
Further RC drilling was subsequently completed at the Ivonette and Dragon West targets, to follow up on previously returned +1 g/t Au drill intercepts, with the objective to expand the mineralization intersected to date and potentially define new mineral resources. Assays are pending. Also, additional results from other components of the Program, including diamond core drilling beneath the São Jorge deposit, expansion of the IP survey grid, and a garimpo (artisanal mine) mapping and sampling program, will be reported as results are available.
