Wesdome's Surface Exploration Program at Kiena Confirms High-Grade Growth Potential

[{"type":"text","content":"Wesdome's Surface Exploration Program at Kiena Confirms High-Grade Growth PotentialDubuisson North Zone returns two distinct thick, high-grade intercepts within the same drillhole; renewed follow-up drilling at Northwest, 134 and Wesdome zones produces encouraging high-grade results\n\n\n\n TORONTO, Dec. 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX:WDO, OTCQX:WDOFF) (“\n \n Wesdome\n \n ” or the “\n \n Company\n \n ”) today provides an update on surface exploration activities at its wholly-owned Kiena Mine Complex (“\n \n Kiena\n \n ”) in Val-d’Or, Québec (Figure 1).\n \n\n Anthea Bath, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Kiena’s summer drilling program tested four different high-priority zones, namely Dubuisson, Northwest, 134 and Wesdome. While each one delivered promising high-grade results, the standout was a drillhole at Dubuisson North Zone that returned two new intercepts of exceptional grade and thickness. While Dubuisson is just one of several near surface underground deposits at Kiena, it is the most advanced, remains open at depth and exhibits strong geological similarities to the adjacent Goldex mine. The substantial increase in regional exploration activity across the Kiena land package in 2025 underscores a growing pipeline of targets and reaffirms Wesdome’s commitment to unlocking the property’s long-term potential.”\n \n\n Jono Lawrence, Senior Vice President Exploration and Resources, added, “This year’s surface exploration program at Kiena was extremely productive with nearly 38,000 metres drilled, approximately 30% more than during the 2024 summer program. Results to date support a new interpretation of vein orientation at Dubuisson, indicating that the veins dip shallowly to the north. This has positive implications for the potential scale of the deposit and for future exploration. In 2026, approximately 55,000 metres are dedicated to advancing existing southern and northern corridor targets and testing new targets identified from a recent drone magnetic survey, which provided high-resolution imaging of rock structures and revealed potential intrusions.”\n \n\n\n HIGHLIGHTS\n \n\n\n\n Dubuisson Zone (Figure 2, Table 1)\n \n\n\n 1\n \n\n\n\n ,2\n \n\n\n\n ,\n \n\n\n\n 6\n \n\n\...
