(TSXV: GLAD) (OTCQB: GDTRF) (FSE: ZX7) (\"Gladiator\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce a significant new discovery at the Whitehorse Copper Belt from maiden drilling at a new target adjacent to the historic Black Cub South pit. Results from the five-hole (1,411m) drill program, have identified significant mineralization adjacent to the Cub Trend defined by historical drilling and mining over a >1.5km strike length, with all five drillholes intersecting high-grade copper-gold-magnetite skarn.SUMMARY Previously unknown high-grade copper-gold-magnetite skarn intersected in all five drillholes of maiden drilling at new target area adjacent to the previously mined Black Cub South Open Pit, with results including:44.2m @ 1.69% Cu, 0.93 g/t Au & 15.39 g/t Ag from 173.8m, including 27m of 2.56% Cu, 1.44 g/t Au & 23.85 g/t Ag from 183.0m. High grade mineralization now defined over more than 300m of strike and 300m down dip and remains open in all directions. Validates geophysical targeting based on combined Gravity and IP, unlocking exploration potential of the entire Whitehorse Copper Belt. Defined mineralization under cover and blind to previous exploration efforts with target recently identified from Gladiator’s ongoing geophysical programs. Undrilled high-tenor chargeability anomalies identified from recent Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical surveys extend target area a further 200m to the south.Drilling targeted overlapping Induced Polarization (IP) and gravity anomalies beneath shallow cover, with five holes confirming high-grade copper-gold-silver magnetite skarn over 300m within a broader 800m coincidental IP and gravity geophysical anomaly. This has led to the new Cub Trend discovery known as \"Cub East\", which remains open in all directions.Recently returned assays from Cub East confirmed drilling intersected strong copper and gold magnetite-skarn mineralization. Results include:BCG-014 returned 44.2m @ 1.69% Cu, 0.93 g/t Au & 15.39 g/t Ag from 173.8m, including:27m of 2.56% Cu, 1.44 g/t Au & 23.85 g/t Ag from 183.0m.BCG-017 returned 17.70m @ 1.76% Cu,...
