Dryden Gold Provides 2024 Summary to Shareholders

 

 

 

 

 

Dryden Gold Corp. [TSX-V: DRY) (OTCQB: DRYGF] is pleased to reflect on a year of successful exploration, significant capital markets activity and important tactical land acquisitions. The technical team made great strides in identifying and defining the geological structures that control the high-grade gold in the Gold Rock Camp. The Company’s geological progress and success led to the announcement that Centerra Gold Inc. [TSX: CG) (NYSE: CGAU] had acquired a 9.9% strategic equity position. Dryden Gold is now fully funded for an exciting year of exploration in 2025. The Company would like to thank all its shareholders who have made this first year as a public company a success and continue to support our next phase of exploration in 2025.

2024 Highlights Include:

Successful capital market campaigns including the strategic investment by Centerra:

 

Near Surface High-Grade Drill Results in the Gold Rock Camp:

 

Building District Scale Potential – Dryden Gold District:

 

2024 was a transitional year for Dryden Gold Corp. Starting with our successful public listing in January and ending with Centerra’s strategic investment in December, the Company made great strides on all fronts.” states Trey Wasser, CEO of Dryden Gold. “I am especially proud of our technical team and their outstanding accomplishments in the interpretation of the structural geology and controls which resulted in identifying several new high-grade structures through the drill bit. We continue to see striking similarities to the Red Lake Camp and we are especially excited about our deeper holes at Elora where intercepts of over an ounce per tonne gold show a strong mineralized system. The district scale potential of our consolidated land package now has the attention of several producing gold companies anxious to expand operations in Canada. With a fully funded exploration budget we expect 2025 to be another pivotal year as we drill deeper and test new targets and continue our property-wide exploration.”
