Nine Mile Metals Initiates Drilling at Tribag-West Wedge

Nine Mile Metals Ltd. has deployed its second drill rig to the Tribag-West Wedge target area within the Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick. This move follows the initial announcement in January 2025 about the Time Domain Electromagnetic (TDEM) VMS targets. Concurrently, the company continues its 10,000-metre drill program at the Wedge Mine.

The second rig's arrival marks a significant step in advancing testing of seven TDEM conductor plates associated with the Tribag and West Wedge VMS occurrences. As of late September, 18 drill holes totaling 4,934.50 meters have been completed. Upcoming borehole electromagnetic surveys will guide further exploration.

Despite delays in rig mobilization, Nine Mile Metals is optimistic about testing the potential of the Tribag-West Wedge targets. The effort focuses on priority targets defined through reprocessed airborne data and strong conductors identified at depths of 300 to 450 meters.
