[{"type":"text","content":" Phase I framework drilling at Campfire confirmed a vertically- and laterally-extensive hydrothermal system containing a new Carlin-type gold zone; Phase II to focus on grade-hunting and framework expansion Toiyabe Hills Property expanded by 110 claims, now covers approximately 70 km2 (847 claims) and a strike length of 13 km along the Hilltop Corridor, a district-scale north-south mineralization control Three separate target zones – Campfire, SSD, and El Segundo – will be tested in 2026 with a significant program combining reverse-circulation and core drilling Vancouver, British Columbia, March 18, 2026 – TheNewswire – Westward Gold Inc. (CSE: WG, OTCQB: WGLIF, FSE: IM50) (“Westward” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide results for the remaining three reverse-circulation (“RC”) drill holes of 2025 (CF25-08 through CF25-10), detail major takeaways from its +7,000-metre Phase I campaign at the Campfire Target Complex (“Campfire”), and outline next steps at Campfire and the broader Toiyabe Hills Property in Lander County, Nevada (“Toiyabe Hills”, or the “Property”). The Company is also pleased to report the additional consolidation of contiguous exploration ground along the strike length of a major north-south mantle-tapping structural feature originally identified via gravity (the “Hilltop Corridor”). Since it’s entrance into the Cortez District in 2021, Westward has grown its land position by over 400%. Dr. Quinton Hennigh, Westward Chairman, commented: “I’m proud of what the team accomplished last year; not only did this campaign represent a successful proof of concept on the operational side – sinking 900-metre RC holes into an undrilled Nevada target is no small feat – Campfire itself stood on its merits in this first-pass test. The framework program accomplished exactly what we expected of it and has established a solid foundation and high confidence for focused Phase II drilling. With two additional target zones now advanced to drill-ready status, and more land to feed the exploration pipeline, 2026 is shaping up to be a banner year for Westward.” Phase I Campfire Drilling – Campaign Highlights: The wide-spaced framework drilling program was successful in achieving its primary objectives: Determining the third-dimension architecture of favourable stratigraphy: lower-plate carbonate rocks (namely of the Wenban Forma...
