Endurance Gold Commences RC Drilling at Eagle Offset Target
News related to:Endurance Gold Corporation · 2 min read
Endurance Gold Corporation has commenced its inaugural Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling program at the Eagle Offset Target on its 100%-owned Reliance Gold Project, located 4 kilometers east of Gold Bridge, British Columbia. The project, situated in the historic Bridge River Mining Camp, aims to explore and potentially expand the mineral resources in the area.
In January 2026, the company reported an initial Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) of 19.6 million tonnes at an average grade of 2.30 grams per tonne (gpt) of gold, equating to 1.45 million ounces of contained gold. The Eagle Offset Target is interpreted as a structural offset and southern continuation of the Royal Shear Trend, which hosts the MRE. The geochemical soil anomaly associated with the target is 1,300 meters by 500 meters wide, with anomalous gold, arsenic, and antimony in talus.
Two drill access trails have recently been excavated across the previously undrilled soil anomaly, leading to new bedrock exposures. These exposures reveal intense carbonate-altered, silicified mafic and ultramafic volcanics, with areas of mineralized multidirectional quartz-carbonate vein stockworks associated with arsenopyrite and stibnite. Channel sampling has been completed across the newly exposed bedrock, with 115 samples sent for assay. Results from these samples are pending.
The company plans to complete up to 50 RC holes, with the balance of the drilling to be allocated based on geological observations and pending channel sampling results. Additionally, diamond drilling continues, with 9,025 meters completed to date in 21 drill holes. Metallurgical and associated testwork studies remain active, with an expected update soon.

The Reliance Gold Project is interpreted to host a shallow-level (Epizonal) orogenic gold system. Gold mineralization is directly related to varying amounts of low concentrations of sulphides, including pyrite, arsenopyrite, and stibnite, which occur as sulphide replacement and multigenerational breccias, frequently associated with pervasive silicification, quartz stockwork, and/or quartz breccia infill. The geological setting and drilling results to date support the company's view that the project has near-surface and underground growth potential within multiple gold and antimony deposits.
Endurance Gold Corporation, a precious metals exploration and development company, is focused on the acquisition, exploration, and development of highly prospective North American mineral properties. The current exploration focus is to advance the Reliance Gold Project, located near Gold Bridge, B.C., in the historic Bridge River Gold Mining Camp.
