Highlight intercepts include 1.33 g/t Au and 39.2 g/t Ag over 225.6 m (hole iMP26-07), 1.70 g/t Au and 61.5 g/t Ag over 170.7 m (iMP26-23), and 0.82 g/t Au and 40.1 g/t Ag over 202.7 m (iMP26-09).

The current Mineral Point open pit resource totals 216.98 Mt of indicated (3.38 Moz Au, 104.33 Moz Ag) and 194.44 Mt of inferred (2.12 Moz Au, 91.47 Moz Ag). A 2025 PEA outlined a 17‑year mine life and ~280,000 oz/year gold equivalent production after ramp-up, with an after-tax NPV(5%) of $614 million and 12% IRR at $2,175/oz Au and $26/oz Ag.
The 2026/2027 drill program targets ~130,000 m across 300 holes, with ~30,000 m completed by end of August. Planned spending is $40–45 million on exploration plus ~$5 million on technical and early pre-permitting, to be funded from a $50 million Franco-Nevada royalty financing. Drilling is expected to finish around Q1 2027, supporting a pre-feasibility study targeted for mid‑2027.
i-80 Gold (IAUX) released a positive feasibility study and initial mineral reserve estimate for the Granite Creek underground gold project in Nevada, defining after-tax NPV(5%) of $118 million at a base gold price of $2,750/oz.
The study outlines proven and probable mineral reserves of 2.20 Mt grading 7.87 g/t Au, containing 556,500 oz of gold, and an 8.5-year mine life. Measured and indicated underground mineral resources increased 229% versus the March 2025 PEA to 3.73 Mt at 7.17 g/t Au for 859,500 oz, while inferred resources decreased 38% to 0.89 Mt at 7.06 g/t Au for 202,800 oz as material converted to higher confidence categories.
At $4,500/oz gold, after-tax NPV(5%) rises to $598 million, and at $6,000/oz to $985 million.
