New Break Maiden Drilling Returns 4.11 g/t Au over 31.3 Metres in Drillhole #5 and 3.35 g/t Au over 14.8 Metres in Drillhole #4 at Moray Gold Project

 

 

 

 

 

New Break Resources Ltd. (CSE: NBRK) is pleased to announce assay results from its maiden diamond drilling program at its 100% owned Moray gold project located 49 km south of Timmins, Ontario and 32 km northwest of the Young-Davidson gold mine operated by Alamos Gold Inc. The six hole, 1,502 metre diamond drilling program completed by Enviro North Exploration Inc. out of Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, was completed between July 12 and August 14, 2025.

 

Highlights

  • Hole NBR-25-05 returned 4.11 grams per tonne gold over 31.3 metres from 83.0 to 114.3 metres, including 6.75 g/t Au over 7.1 metres.
  • Hole NBR-25-04 returned the following intercepts from 100.3 to 187.0 metres:
    • 3.35 g/t Au over 14.8 metres;
    • Including 7.25 g/t Au over 4.0 metres;
    • Also including 2.81 g/t Au over 2.3 metres;
    • Also including 5.07 g/t Au over 2.6 metres;
    • 6.70 g/t Au over 0.8 metres;
    • 1.15 g/t Au over 2.0 metres;
    • 3.44 g/t Au over 5.7 metres; and
    • 1.34 g/t Au over 4.0 metres.

 

William Love, Chief Executive Officer of New Break, commented, “The results from drillholes four and five represent the discovery of a new gold system and the best gold intersections ever returned at the Moray gold project. While historical drilling indicates that gold mineralization within the Fiset syenite intrusion at Moray may share similar characteristics to the syenite hosted Young-Davidson gold deposit, New Break now believes that sulfide mineralization within the Zavitz zone and below Trench 12, appears to have been remobilized and partitioned into the hematized mafic volcanics bounding the west flank of the Fiset intrusion. The recrystallized pyrite that carries gold is hosted in parallel westerly dipping breccia veins related to a contact metamorphic effect coincident with dilatant structural deformation flanking the west contact of the syenite intrusive. The syenite intrusive at Moray is interpreted to be three times the size of the intrusive at Young-Davidson by area, where little to no drilling has been carried out along the 3.7 km strike length of the western contact. Further drilling is planned to expand the Zavitz discovery zone.”

 

Michael Farrant, President of New Break, further commented, “We are obviously thrilled with the results of this drilling program and wish to thank our largest shareholder and his wife, Ross and Patricia Quigley for their ongoing support, without which, this discovery would not have been possible. Ontario Junior Exploration Program grants provided by the government of Ontario were also a big help in funding our exploration efforts to date. Northern Ontario is one of the best jurisdictions in the world to make gold discoveries, where our efforts to date have resulted in a significant new discovery with excellent potential for expansion. With the price of gold hitting new all-time highs, the environment for rewarding our shareholders with a new gold discovery could not be better.”

Drillholes NBR-25-01, NBR-25-02 and NBR-25-03 were drilled to test potential gold mineralization within the syenite intrusive, following up on the 2022 discovery of gold bearing veins at Trench 1. With the exception of NBR-25-03, the first two drillholes did intersect anomalous gold values with accompanying sulfide mineralization.

 

Drillholes NBR-25-04 and NBR-25-05 were drilled to test the gold bearing shear vein discovered by New Break in Trench 12 (Zavitz zone showing) in July and August 2022, where New Break reported an assay of 70.60 g/t Au from a grab sample taken from the south end of Trench 12.

 

Drillhole NBR-25-06 was drilled to test a potential N-S structure interpreted from the Company’s gradient IP survey completed from October to December 2024.

 

New Break is in the process of interpreting these drilling results with a view to establishing targets for a follow-up drilling program, which the Company hopes to undertake in the fall of 2025.

QA/QC Procedures

 

QA/QC procedures were executed to ensure all work is conducted in accordance with best practices. All drill core was sawn in half with one half of the core prepared for shipment and the other half retained for future verification. All core is under watch from the drill site to the core processing facility. Drill core is BQTK size and sample intervals range from 0.5 metres to 1.0 metres in length. Commercially prepared certified reference material (“CRM”) standards and blanks were inserted with each shipment at a rate of 1 QAQC sample in every 12 core samples. Samples from New Break’s summer 2025 Moray drilling program were analyzed at Activation Laboratories in Timmins, Ontario, which is ISO 17025 certified, by 30-gram fire assay with atomic absorption finish. Any sample assaying greater than 10 g/t Au was re-assayed with fire assay gravimetric analysis.
