TODAY: Tiger Gold (TIGR.v) Intersects 82.7m @ 1.4g/t Au Within 307.1m @ 0.7 g/t Au at Tesority & Identified Vector Toward Potential Feeder Zone
Posted on behalf of Tiger Gold Corp. - Tiger Gold (TIGR.v) reported assay results from the third hole of its ongoing campaign at the Tesorito deposit at its Quinchía Gold Project in central Colombia.
The project is located in the Mid-Cauca gold belt, ~20 km south of Aris Mining’s Marmato mine and near projects operated by Collective Mining.
Latest Drill Results – Tesorito (Hole TSDH-69)
- 307.1 m at 0.7 g/t Au from near surface, ending in mineralization
- Includes 82.7 m at 1.4 g/t Au, with a higher-grade interval of 4 m at 3.5 g/t Au
- Increasing sulphide intensity and chalcopyrite at depth suggest proximity to a potential feeder zone
- Hole targeted the south-central portion of the current Tesorito block model
Exploration & Drilling Update
- Drilling is part of an initial 10,000 m Phase 1 program
- Two rigs continue infill and extension drilling at Tesorito to improve confidence and expand mineralization
- Assays pending from four additional drillholes
- A third rig has begun drilling at the Dos Quebradas target, ~3 km northwest of Tesorito, with an initial 1,000 m program
Geological Interpretation
- Mineralization hosted in a porphyry-style system within porphyritic andesite and intrusive breccia/diorite
- Core porphyry domain shows potassic alteration, stockwork veining, disseminated sulphides, and magnetite
- Elevated gold at the bottom of the hole and sulphide trends provide vectors for follow-up drilling
Dos Quebradas Target
- Historical drilling (2011–2012) outlined an inferred resource of 20.2 Mt at 0.71 g/t Au (459 koz Au) under JORC standards
- Estimate is considered historical and not current; TIGR plans further drilling and data verification
- Viewed as a high-priority exploration prospect within the Quinchía district
Project Economics (PEA Highlights)
- 2025 PEA outlines post-tax NPV (5%) of US$534M and IRR of 21.3% at US$2,650/oz gold
- Upside case at US$3,700/oz gold shows NPV (5%) of US$1.19B and IRR of 36.5%
- Average annual production of ~141 koz AuEq over a 10.2-year mine life
Current Mineral Resources
- Tesorito (open pit): 104 Mt at 0.47 g/t Au for 1.57 Moz Au (Inferred)
- Miraflores (underground): 0.51 Moz Au Measured + Indicated, plus minor Inferred resources
Overall, the latest Tesorito results reinforce scale and continuity, while sulphide vectors and active drilling at both Tesorito and Dos Quebradas point to continued resource growth potential across the Quinchía Gold Project.
