Independence Gold Announces New Discovery at the Larry Vein System of 19.40m Grading 5.58 g/t Gold and 73.76 g/t Silver at the 3Ts Project, BC
Independence Gold Corp. (TSXV: IGO) has announced a significant discovery of high-grade gold and silver mineralization at the Larry Vein System within its 3Ts Project in central British Columbia. The project, located 185 km southwest of Prince George and 16 km southwest of Artemis Gold's Blackwater Mine, spans 8,840 hectares.
Key findings include:
- Drill hole 3TS-25-07 revealed two veins with mineralized breccia, yielding 19.40m grading 5.58 g/t gold and 73.76 g/t silver, and 15.00m grading 3.01 g/t gold and 25.20 g/t silver
- Drill hole 3TS-25-09 returned 8.0m at 5.89 g/t gold and 25.13 g/t silver
The Larry Vein, previously overlooked due to thick overburden, has an estimated strike length of 325m and remains open to expansion. The company plans to include these results in an updated resource model scheduled for Q2 2025.
Independence Gold Corp. (TSXV: IGO) ha annunciato una significativa scoperta di mineralizzazione ad alta legge di oro e argento nel sistema Larry Vein all'interno del suo progetto 3Ts, situato nel centro della Columbia Britannica. Il progetto, che si trova a 185 km a sud-ovest di Prince George e a 16 km a sud-ovest della miniera Blackwater di Artemis Gold, si estende su 8.840 ettari.
I risultati chiave includono:
- Il foro di perforazione 3TS-25-07 ha rivelato due vene con breccia mineralizzata, con un rendimento di 19,40 m con un grado di 5,58 g/t di oro e 73,76 g/t di argento, e 15,00 m con un grado di 3,01 g/t di oro e 25,20 g/t di argento
- Il foro di perforazione 3TS-25-09 ha restituito 8,0 m a 5,89 g/t di oro e 25,13 g/t di argento

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 26, 2025) - Independence Gold Corp. (TSXV: IGO) ("Independence Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the discovery of high-grade gold and silver mineralization at the Larry Vein System at its 3Ts Project in central British Columbia. The 3Ts Project is located approximately 185 kilometres ("km") southwest of Prince George, British Columbia and is comprised of seventeen mineral claims covering approximately 8,840 hectares in the Nechako Plateau region of central British Columbia. The project is situated 16 km southwest of Artemis Gold Inc.'s Blackwater Mine and covers a low-sulphidation epithermal quartz- carbonate vein district within which nineteen individual mineralized veins, ranging from 50 m to more than 1,100 m in strike length and with true widths up to 32 m have been identified.
Key Highlights:
- Drill hole 3TS-25-07 intersected a system of two veins with mineralized breccia below the microdiorite sill, returning 19.40 m grading 5.58 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold and 73.76 g/t silver, and 15.00 m grading 3.01 g/t gold and 25.20 g/t silver. True widths are estimated to be 11.00 m and 8.5 m respectively with the intercept occurring 210 m east of the Tommy Vein System.
- Drill hole 3TS-25-09 returned 8.0 m at 5.89 g/t gold and 25.13 g/t silver above the microdiorite sill, with a true width of 4.75 m. This intercept was 145 m east of the Tommy Vein System.
- Compilation of historical data has provided sufficient information to directly target the Larry Vein for the first time, with the strike length estimated to be approximately 325 m remaining open to the northwest, southeast and at depth.
- Additional assay results from the Larry Vein are pending.
Potential of the Larry Vein
The Larry Vein, located east of the Tommy Vein System, was loosely defined by shallow historical drill intercepts from the 1990s to early 2000s. Due to thick overburden, no surface exposure of the Larry Vein has ever been observed. These latest drill results confirm the presence of a significant vein system, demonstrating that the Larry Vein has been largely overlooked in historical work. The high-grade gold and silver values returned from 3TS-25-09, combined with the complex veining and mineralized breccia observed in 3TS-25-07, suggest that the Larry Vein has the potential to contribute significantly to an updated resource model, planned for the second quarter of 2025.

Randy Turner, President and CEO of Independence Gold, commented: "The discovery of high-grade mineralization at the Larry Vein is an exciting development for the 3Ts Project. This vein was historically ignored due to its lack of surface exposure, but the latest results demonstrate it has significant potential. We await additional assay results not only from the Larry Vein but also other targets we are currently drilling."
