ESGold Corp. has provided a substantial update on its diamond drilling program at the Montauban Project, located roughly 80 kilometres from Quebec City. As of September 24, 2026, the company has completed over 2,000 metres of drilling and has submitted around 400 core samples for assay as part of its extensive 5,000-metre drill campaign. This phase of drilling is aimed at exploring multiple sulphide-bearing intervals that may indicate potential mineral deposits in the area.
The Montauban Project is noteworthy for its historic production and is being developed with the intention of determining its economic viability. ESGold's latest drilling activities are critical in assessing the potential for mineral extraction, and the results of the assays from the core samples are anticipated to inform the next steps in the company’s exploration strategy. ESGold continues to advance its projects in a competitive mining landscape, with an emphasis on sustainable practices and responsible mining.
As ESGold progresses with its drilling program, the mining community and stakeholders are closely monitoring developments at Montauban, given the project's history and potential implications for the local economy and the mining sector in the region.
