Summary
AuMEGA Metals Ltd announced high-grade surface gold results from its 100%-owned Intersection Project in southwest Newfoundland and Labrador, where the Cape Ray Shear Zone and Hermitage Flexure converge, reporting a 100.5 g/t gold float sample—the second-highest grade gold sample ever collected across the company’s Newfoundland portfolio—along with additional float samples grading 23.8 g/t and 23.1 g/t gold, marking a significant progression from the broad gold-in-till anomaly identified in 2024 to confirmed high-grade gold mineralisation at surface; the 169 km² project hosts Windsor Point Group sedimentary rocks and felsic intrusions in a setting considered analogous in key respects to the Valentine Gold District, and the 2026 target-generation program comprised systematic till sampling, geological and structural mapping, prospecting and rock sampling, with most assay results still pending, after which AuMEGA intends to integrate the geochemical data with mapping, airborne magnetic and electromagnetic surveys, and updated structural interpretations to refine targets for tighter-spaced geochemistry, detailed follow-up work, potential ground geophysics including induced polarization, and possible scout drilling, while noting the area’s growing strategic significance through nearby Solstice staking and adjacent Equinox Gold claims.
Key Points
  • AuMEGA Metals reported a 100.5 g/t gold float sample at the Intersection Project.
  • The 100.5 g/t result is the second-highest grade gold sample ever collected across AuMEGA’s Newfoundland property portfolio.
  • Additional high-grade float samples returned 23.8 g/t gold and 23.1 g/t gold.
  • Intersection is located at the convergence of the Cape Ray Shear Zone and the Hermitage Flexure.
  • The results advance Intersection from a 2024 gold-in-till anomaly to identified high-grade gold mineralisation at surface.
  • The 169 km² project contains Windsor Point Group sedimentary rocks and felsic intrusions with similarities to the Valentine Gold District.
  • The 2026 program included systematic till sampling, geological and structural mapping, prospecting and rock sampling.
  • A total of 56 grab samples were collected during the reconnaissance mapping program.
  • Most assay results from the 2026 program remain pending.
  • AuMEGA plans to integrate pending assays with geological, structural, magnetic and electromagnetic data to define follow-up targets.
  • Potential next steps include tighter-spaced surficial geochemistry, detailed mapping, ground geophysics and scout drilling.
  • The project area has increased strategic significance following AuMEGA’s Solstice staking and nearby Equinox Gold claim staking.
