Bayridge Resources Drilling Update at Waterbury East Project
Bayridge Resources Corp. has completed its autumn 2024 drilling program at the Waterbury East uranium project in Canada's Athabasca Basin. The program, which drilled six holes totaling 2,721 meters, focused on two key target areas and tested multiple targets. The company's CEO, Saf Dhillon, stated that the initial results were encouraging, with signs of elevated uranium counts, graphite concentrations, shearing, faulting and alteration.

Kodiak Drills New Shallow High-Grade Copper Mineralization at 200m Step-Out from Adit Zone
Kodiak Copper Corp. has shared its drilling results from the 2024 program at its MPD copper-gold porphyry project in southern British Columbia.

This could potentially lead to a significant extension, as the mineralized core is similar to the high-grade sulphide facies discovered below the historic Adit Zone. The footprint of the Adit Zone could expand significantly if future drilling confirms these findings. Two new holes were also drilled in an area not previously explored, extending the north-south strike of Adit to 500 metres.
