[{"type":"text","content":"Vancouver, BC – October 14, 2025 – TheNewswire - Vanguard Mining Corp. (\"Vanguard\" or the \"Company\") (CSE: UUU: | OTCID: UUUFF: | FSE: SL51:) is pleased to provide an update to its previously planned 2025 exploration program at the 100%-owned Brussels Creek Gold-Copper-Palladium Project (“Brussels Creek”), located near Kamloops, British Columbia. Figure 1: Brussels Creek location and proximity to New Afton Mine The 2025 program was previously announced on June 10, 2025 is designed to follow up on a near-surface gold discovery announced in 2023, where drilling intersected 5.08 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 3.5 metres, from 25.75 to 29.25 metres depth. This intercept complements historical surface sampling completed in 2019 by previous operator LeMare Gold Corp., which returned values of up to 11.52 g/t gold, underscoring the high-grade potential of the Brussels Creek project at shallow depths. Figure 2: 2019 sampling and 2023 drill hole locations. Brussels Creek is strategically located adjacent to New Gold Inc.’s New Afton Mine, a significant copper-gold producer with a market cap of approximately $7.99 Billion. The New Afton Mine occupies the site of the historic Afton open-pit operation (1977–1997) and began modern underground block cave production in July 2012. The proximity of Brussels Creek to this established, high-value mining operation enhances Vanguard’s exploration upside and underscores the strategic significance of its land position within British Columbia’s prolific Quesnel Terrane, a belt known for large porphyry copper-gold systems. According to New Gold’s 2024 annual results, the New Afton Mine produced 72,609 ounces of gold and 54 million pounds of copper, contributing to an estimated gross metal value of approximately USD $349.5 million based on average 2024 commodity prices (Gold: ~$1,950/oz, Copper: ~$3.85/lb).1 Metal 2024 Production Average Price (USD) Estimated Gross Metal Value (USD) Gold 72,609 oz $1,950/oz $141,587,550 Copper 54,000,000 lbs $3.85/lb $207,900,000 Total Estimated Value — — $349,487,550 Table 1: New Afton Mine 2024 Production and Estimated Gross Metal Value The proposed follow up exploration program consists of the following: Vanguard plans to advance its follow-up exploration program at Brussels Creek in 2025, building on the 2023 drill campaign and the results announced on June 6, 2...
