[{"type":"text","content":"High Priority Reduced Intrusion-Related Gold System (RIRGS) Drill Targets: Coincident Bismuth-Tellurium-Gold Anomalies\n(TheNewswire)\n\n \n\n\nMarch 18, 2026 – TheNewswire - Lode Gold’s (LOD:TSXV | LODFF:OTBQB)\nprevious wholly owned subsidiary, Gold Orogen Resources Inc (CSE:OROG)\n(the “Company” or “Gold Orogen”),\nis pleased to announce exploration plans at\nGolden Culvert & WIN projects in Yukon. Gold\nOrogen (1475039 B.C. Ltd.) is a pre-discovery exploration play with\nquality assets in Yukon and New Brunswick. Optionality exists as\nassets are diversified on two mineral belts that are known to have\nprolific gold endowments. \n\n\nThe successful 2025 season was designed to further\ninvestigate targets across the 27 km mineralized trend which were\nranked after a property wide data compilation, airborne geophysics\nusing the SQUIDT system, and AI\ntargeting using VRIFY’s DORA platform. SQUIDT stands for\nSuperconducting Quantum Interference Device which is up to 10,000x\nmore sensitive than conventional magnetometers. The relationship\nbetween magnetic highs and lows helps to map out intrusive rocks and\nthe associated hornfelsed sediments surrounding them and when combined\nwith geochemistry can support identification of Reduced Intrusion\nRelated Gold Systems (RIRGS). \n\n\nExploration plans for 2026 will focus on additional\nsampling and drilling of 3-5 high priority targets with key geological\nand structural characteristics consistent with the Company’s\nexploration model. The three RIRGS targets are Border, Steelhead and\nStingray. The two orogenic targets are Spine and\nGolden Dragon.\n\n\nBorder is the\nhighest priority drill target and is situated on the WIN claim block\n(Figure 1). \n\n\n\n\nGrab samples with grade up to 8.5\ng/t Au with many others 1 g/t Au.  \n\n\n\nSheeted quartz veins follow foliation over an area of\nroughly ~2 km x 300 m and occur at a density of up to 10 veins/m\n(Figure 2). \n\n\n\nMagnetic highs correspond to strongly hornfelsed rocks\nwith elevated arsenic, tellurium and bismuth.  \n\n\n\nRanked highly in a broad range of VRIFY AI targeting\nexercises. \n\n\n\n\nSpine is a new\ndiscovery from the 2025 field program and is situated at the south end\nof the Golden Culvert claim block (Figure 3) and had re...
