Drill results from East Camp Douglas were from the White Rock West targets located on the northern half of the property and are the third round of high-grade gold drill results released from the area in 2026. These latest results intercepted extensive high-grade gold across substantial widths in multiple holes. The Company currently has three exploration drills operating at East Camp Douglas.
"Our goal remains building an initial resource at our East Camp Douglas property's White Rock West area," stated Mr. Allan Turner, Vice President of Exploration for Fortitude Gold. "There is significant expansion potential beyond our current allowable disturbance at White Rock West. I am enthusiastic that we will receive the Plan of Operation for Exploration in the fourth quarter of 2026, which will allow us additional disturbance to further delineate the gold-bearing structural corridor in this area. While we wait for this next permit, we continue drilling pre-disturbed areas in the northern area of East Camp Douglas."
