Mining in Ontario is big business. In 2021, Ontario’s mining industry produced roughly C$11.1 billion worth of minerals, accounting for 20 percent of Canada’s total production value. The importance of the mining industry has helped create a mining-friendly jurisdiction that understands the value of capitalizing on its natural resources. That’s why the Fraser Institute has ranked Ontario among the top 15 jurisdictions worldwide for investment attractiveness.
Additionally, the Canadian government is making a significant push to ramp up the production of critical minerals, including copper, lithium and aluminum. This push has resulted in more than 31 critical mineral projects in advanced exploration stages in Ontario,e paving the way for the development of a domestic supply chain for the country.
Heritage Mining (CSE:HML) is an exploration and development mining company with district-scale assets targeting gold and copper mineralizations within Ontario. The company’s flagship Drayton-Black Lake project is a strategically assembled district-scale project with encouraging bulk samples, high-grade gold intercepts and robust existing infrastructure. An experienced management team leads Heritage Mining with more than 100 years of combined experience working within the natural resources sector.The Drayton-Black Lake project is a district-scale asset with a rich history, but a single company has never operated the entire area. Instead, it was split up among different operators and has never received systematic exploration to determine its mineralizations' actual width and depth.
As a result, Heritage Mining is launching the first systematic exploration program that will identify promising deposits throughout the entire area of this historic region from a low-grade, high-tonnage perspective.
The company entered a definitive asset purchase agreement with Bounty Gold Corp. to acquire 50 mining claims in the Split Lake zone adjacent to Heritage's flagship Drayton-Black Lake project. Heritage will acquire a 100 percent interest in the Split Lake property in exchange for issuing Bounty 100,000 common shares.
“Relative to other projects in the area, we are very close to infrastructure. There is a paved highway through the property, all-weather logging roads, and well-maintained ATV roads. So it’s quite a bit different than other projects in Northern Ontario: there are no ice roads and we don’t have to fly in to do work,” CEO Peter Schloo stated in an interview.
The company also operates the Contact Bay project containing high-grade copper-nickel mineralizations. The 4,700-hectare land package is within an active mining area and has known gold, nickel and platinum-palladium mineralizations. While the Drayton-Black Lake project is the main focus, Contact Bay will expose the company to critical minerals.
Heritage Mining’s management team has a proven track record in the mining industry and has overseen transactions exceeding C$15 billion. In addition, the team has experience in corporate finance, administration and geology.
The 14,229-hectare project has undergone significant historical exploration, including more than 176 holes drilled, with high-grade gold and copper discoveries. The project is located in a mature mining district in Ontario, a jurisdiction known for its low geopolitical risk and mining-friendly government.
The Alcona Area has been approved for Phase II Drill Program to define its deposit potential.
The project covers 4,700 hectares and contains multiple high-grade copper-nickel and gold occurrences. Contact Bay is also located in Ontario andt is in the exploration phase, with targets identified for exploratory drilling.
Geophysical interpretation of the Contact Bay area along with findings from the 2023 prospecting program, suggest geological similarities to other Archean nickell-copper-PGE occurrences and deposits.

VANCOUVER, BC TheNewswire - March 24, 2025 Heritage Mining Ltd. (CSE: HML FRA:Y66) (" Heritage " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that samples have been submitted on Saturday March 22, 2025 from the New Millennium 2025 diamond drill program targeting two mineralized vein systems in the immediate vicinity of the highest grade grab sample on the property (2,330 gt Au) within its flagship exploration project Drayton Black Lake (" DBL ") (Figure 2 and 3). The Company anticipates recommencing drilling on Zone 3 Extension Prospect in short order.
New Millenium Target Historical Highlights:
The Company's 2025 diamond drill program drilled under historical trenches which had results up to 5.18oz/ton Au and 4.8oz/ton Au, +1,000g/t Ag, 0.37% Cu, %0.078 Mo, +1%Pb, 0.68%Zn
The Company has confirmed these findings at surface in prior work programs returning up to 2,330 g/t Au (grab) in the immediate vicinity of the above-mentioned trenches tracing over 300m at surface
Multi-elemental analysis from prior channel sampling programs supports positive correlation between Au and Te, Ag, Cu, Pb, Zn. When combined with visual inspection of core, shows similarities to mineralization at Zone 3, an intrusion related gold mineralization system identified in 2024 comparable to Hammond Reef style mineralization.
New Millennium Target Highlights (Press Release: February 27, 2025)
Total 556m in nine holes completed vs planned 370m over seven holes. Additional meterage was driven from favorable mineralization intersection. All samples are delivered to the lab as at Saturday March 22, 2025.
Drill holes show multiple occurrences (up to 51.40m core length) of variably mineralized shear zone material, local granitic/felsic intrusions, and massive to semi massive quartz veins (Figure 1) in seven of the nine holes drilled.
The presence of chalcopyrite with pyrite in chlorite-carbonate alteration with patchy k-feldspar alteration in quartz veins and wall-rock is reminiscent of some of the best Au-bearing intercepts at the nearby Zone 3 Prospect that were drilled in 2024 (September 20, 2024 Press Release).
Figure 1: HML025-006 Select photograph showing variably mineralized shear zone material hosting semi massive fine grade pyrite filling laminations within massive to semi massive quartz veins associated with k-feldspar altered granite.
"The historical significance of the recently acquired (100% owned) New Millennium target area is very impressive and important to mention as we look forward to assay results. Our systematic exploration approach has successfully intersected significant mineralized core lengths, which is an interesting twist compared to the historically observed high-grade but narrow veins at surface.
It seems to widen at depth, which is a very good sign, considering we have only drilled up to 87m.
We are also looking forward to drilling Zone 3 (DBL Project) and the Rognon Mine are (Contact Bay Project), both of which are high potential drill target areas.
For some time now, we have secured a controlling position on our projects within one of the last underexplored greenstone belts with fantastic access in Northern Ontario. I would like to thank the technical team for their contributions to a successful 2025 drill program thus far, and I look forward to the assay results, continued drilling, and our growth together."

"Heritage Mining is off to a great start in 2025. Our in-house drilling operations have begun to bear fruit. Our exploration team has successfully intersected favorable mineralized structures over core lengths up to ~51.40m targeting two mineralized vein systems in the immediate vicinity of the highest-grade grab sample on the property (2,330 g/t Au) at our flagship exploration DBL Property. Significant lengths of drill core are similar to our best Au-intercepts elsewhere on property, specifically Zone 3. These observations so close to the surface have exceeded our expectations.
We look forward to drilling Zone 3 (DBL Project) and Rognan Area (Contact Bay Project) prospects H1 2025." Commented Peter Schloo, President, CEO and Director of Heritage

Securities Disclosure: I, Charlotte McLeod, hold no direct investment interest in any company mentioned in this article.
Welcome to the Investing News Network's weekly look at the best-performing Canadian mining stocks on the TSX, TSXV and CSE, starting with a round-up of Canadian and US news impacting the resource sector.
The Liberal Party of Canada and Prime Minister Mark Carney will form a minority government following their victory in Canada’s national election on Monday (April 28). The Liberals won 168 seats, just shy of the 172 required to form a majority, meaning the Liberal government will have to work with the Bloc Québécois or the NDP, which won 23 and 7 seats, respectively.
The Conservative Party of Canada, led by Pierre Poilievre, won 144 seats. While the CPC was originally expected to win the election, the trade war and sovereignty threats from new US President Donald Trump turned the tide in favor of Carney, who took a firmer stance against Trump. Other election issues included the high cost of living, housing, immigration and crime.
Both parties came into the election with visions for Canada’s economy, which included energy and infrastructure corridors, a commitment to energy production and a focus on resource nationalism.
Statistics Canada released February’s gross domestic product by industry figures on Wednesday (April 30). According to the data, the resource sector’s January gains were largely erased by contractions in February. Oil and gas extraction slipped by 2.8 percent, while mining and quarrying contracted by 2.6 percent during the month. Metal ore mining posted its second month of declines, falling 2.5 percent. On the other hand, non-metallic mineral mining climbed by 2.7 percent, including a 3.5 percent rise in potash mining.
South of the Border, The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics released its April employment situation summary on Friday (May 2). In the report, the agency said that 177,000 new nonfarm jobs were added to the economy in April, which exceeded analysts’ expectations of 133,000 jobs.
The biggest gains came in the healthcare sector, which added 51,000 workers, followed by transportation and warehousing, where 29,000 people found new employment.
Overall, the unemployment rate remained steady at 4.2 percent, and the participation rate was unchanged at 62.6 percent.
However, there were some caveats, most notably, downward revisions of 15,000 fewer jobs in February and 43,000 jobs in March than initially reported.. Long-term unemployment also ticked up by 179,000 to 1.67 million in April, the highest since March 2022.
While the number showed strength in the job market, many analysts expect these gains to be temporary, as the effects of US tariffs have yet to be felt in the economy.
The US government also announced on Wednesday that it signed a critical minerals deal with Ukraine. Under the terms of the agreement, the US will provide funding for Ukraine’s reconstruction in exchange for preferential access to the country’s natural resources, including rare earth minerals, which are critical to tech and military development and supply chains.
Additionally, the Trump administration announced it added 10 new projects to be fast-tracked to its federal permitting dashboard on Friday. The projects include the NorthMet copper and nickel project in Minnesota, which is a 50/50 joint venture between Teck (TSX:TECK.A,TECK.B,NYSE:TECK) and Glencore (LSE:GLEN,OTC Pink:GLCNF), as well as Sibanye Stillwater’s (NYSE:SBSW) Stillwater platinum and palladium project in Montana.
In Canada, major indexes posted gains by the week's close. The S&P/TSX Composite Index (INDEXTSI:OSPTX) gained 1.32 percent during the week to close at 25,031.51 on Friday, the S&P/TSX Venture Composite Index (INDEXTSI:JX) moved up 0.01 percent to 656.40 and the CSE Composite Index (CSE:CSECOMP) climbed 2.52 percent to 122.75.
US equity markets also posted gains by close on Friday, with the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:INX) increasing 2.85 percent to close at 5,686.66, the Nasdaq-100 (INDEXNASDAQ:NDX) gaining 3.45 percent to 20,102.61 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average (INDEXDJX:.DJI) rising 2.8 percent to 41,317.44.
The gold price fell from recent highs, closing out Friday at US$3,233.98, down 2.56 percent over the week. The silver price was also down, shedding 3.21 percent during the period to US$32.03.
In base metals, the COMEX copper price fell 4.29 percent over the week to US$4.69 per pound. Meanwhile, the S&P GSCI (INDEXSP:SPGSCI) was down 3.17 percent to close at 520.19.

Baru Gold is a development company working to advance its Sangihe gold project in Indonesia.
The company holds a 70 percent stake in the 42,000 hectare project, with the remaining 30 percent interest held by three Indonesia-based companies.
Baru Gold is progressing towards approval of its production operations plan, which was redesigned due to the significant macroeconomic shift and increase in the gold price since its last mineral resource estimate in May 2017.
On February 14, the company published a technical report with an updated mineral resource estimate. The mineral resource estimate demonstrated an indicated resource of 114,000 ounces of gold and 1.93 million ounces of silver from 3.15 million metric tons of ore with grades of 1.12 grams per metric ton (g/t) gold and 19.4 g/t silver. The project also hosts an inferred resource of 91,000 ounces of gold and 1.08 million ounces of silver from 2.3 million metric tons of ore with grades of 1.22 g/t gold and 14.5 g/t silver.
The update marks a significant step towards government approval for production operations status, with the only remaining requirement being the payment of taxes.
The most recent news came on April 2 when the company announced the closing of the first tranche of a private placement for C$336,321.88. Funding raised through the placement will be used in part for payment of land use taxes on the Sangihe property.
Weekly gain: 42.5 percent
Market cap: C$21.07 million
Share price: C$0.285
Taranis Resources is a copper explorer focused on advancing work at its Thor project in Southeast British Columbia, Canada.
The site has seen previous mining dating back to the early 1900s and hosts at least seven different epithermal zones. In a February mineral resource estimate update, the company reported an indicated resource of 1.14 million metric tons of ore containing 27,400 ounces of gold, 5.58 million ounces of silver, 3.1 million pounds of copper, 47.8 million pounds of lead and 77.9 million pounds of zinc.
The most recent news from the Thor project came on April 9, when Taranis provided an update on its 2024 deep drilling program. The company finalized an alteration study of the drill holes, which encountered anomalous gold, zinc and arsenic, and plans to use the results to improve targeting and lower costs for its 2025 drilling program.
Weekly gain: 41.18 percent
Market cap: C$38.02 million
Share price: C$0.12
Black Iron is an exploration and development company working to advance its Shymanivske iron project in Ukraine.
The 300 hectare property is located approximately 330 kilometers south-east of the capital of Kiev and is situated within the well-known iron ore mining district of KrivBass.
According to a March 2020 preliminary economic assessment, project economics demonstrated an after-tax net present value of US$1.44 billion at a discount rate of 10 percent with an internal rate of return of 34.4 percent and a payback period of 3.3 years.
The included mineral resource estimate reported a measured and indicated resource of 645.8 million metric tons of ore with an average grade of 31.6 percent total iron and 18.8 percent magnetic iron.
Although Black Iron did not release any news this week, the company’s share price gained alongside news of the US and Ukraine reaching a critical minerals agreement.
The TSX, or Toronto Stock Exchange, is used by senior companies with larger market caps, and the TSXV, or TSX Venture Exchange, is used by smaller-cap companies. Companies listed on the TSXV can graduate to the senior exchange.
As of February 2025, there were 1,572 companies listed on the TSXV, 905 of which were mining companies. Comparatively, the TSX was home to 1,859 companies, with 181 of those being mining companies.
Together the TSX and TSXV host around 40 percent of the world’s public mining companies.
There are a variety of different fees that companies must pay to list on the TSXV, and according to the exchange, they can vary based on the transaction’s nature and complexity. The listing fee alone will most likely cost between C$10,000 to C$70,000. Accounting and auditing fees could rack up between C$25,000 and C$100,000, while legal fees are expected to be over C$75,000 and an underwriters’ commission may hit up to 12 percent.
The exchange lists a handful of other fees and expenses companies can expect, including but not limited to security commission and transfer agency fees, investor relations costs and director and officer liability insurance.
These are all just for the initial listing, of course. There are ongoing expenses once companies are trading, such as sustaining fees and additional listing fees, plus the costs associated with filing regular reports.
Investors can trade on the TSXV the way they would trade stocks on any exchange. This means they can use a stock broker or an individual investment account to buy and sell shares of TSXV-listed companies during the exchange's trading hours.

North Bay Resources, Inc. (the " Company " or " North Bay ") (OTC: NBRI) is pleased to announce delivery of 344 lbs. of gold concentrate to the Company's refinery partner Just Refiners, Reno, NV. Assay splits have been sent to ALS Geochemistry Reno, Nevada. Ore from the Company's Fran Gold Project was processed at the Company's Bishop Gold Mill. The concentrate represents approximately 15 tons of gross ore processed. Recent repairs to the Company's RakerClassifier and replacement of balls in the ball mill have been implemented to produce a finer grind targeting minus 150 mesh. This grind has been determined to be optimal for recovery. The concentrate is from the gravity only circuit with the flotation circuit currently under optimization and testing ( See Pic 1) . The Company recently received settlement on its first concentrate shipment ( see Press Release dated April 7, 2025 ),
Pic 1. Bishop Gold Mill Flotation Cells.
Flotation Circuit
The Company is testing and optimizing the flotation circuit at the Bishop Gold Mill. The testing of the Clarkson-Feeders for titration of the 5 reagents utilized in the flotation process has been completed.
The staged implementation of the final order of reagents, conditioning and residence time is being determined based on prior metallurgy work and existing equipment. The flotation chemistry utilizes a conditioner, gold promoter, sulphide promoter, activator, and frother. Determination is now underway to identify whether performance will be improved through staged addition of conditioner, gold and sulphides promoters followed by activator and frother or whether reagents will be combined in the single existing conditioning tank. Prior design utilized the ball mill and classifier as entry points for the initial 3 reagents, followed by activator and frother in the conditioning tank. The Company has added a centrifuge, for gravity primary design. This eliminates the possibility of treating the ore in the crushing circuit and reagents now must be added post-gravity recovery in the conditioning tank. A determination is being made to mix all reagents in a single step or adding a second conditioning tank for two phase reagent mixing either collectors and then activator/frother or two dosage mixing of all reagents. A final determination is expected shortly regarding the use of single or double conditioning tanks, with full-scale implementation of the flotation circuit to follow. All mechanical components are working and post-processing equipment including leaf-press and propane fired concentrate drying circuit are operational as well. Previous metallurgy work has determined a 97% recovery may be achieved with a combined gravity and flotation circuit with Fran Gold ore (see Press Release dated December 16, 2024 ).
Fran Gold Project
Data re-compilation of the 104 drill holes from Fran Gold continues. This now includes implementation of Leapfrog 3D modelling and resource estimate software, inclusive of pit-shell design for purpose of producing a resource estimate. The recent discovery of a bulk tonnage gold deposit at Fran ( see Press Release dated April 7, 2025 ) including 149m (488 ft.) of 0.9 grams per tonne has resulted in high priority focus on the re-evaluation of the Fran deposit.
Past exploration and development at Fran Gold, including over 18,000m (55,000ft.) of diamond drilling, has shown large intercepts of mixed vein and disseminated gold. The deposit area has been identified to be in excess of 1000m x 100m x 300m within a known strike length of 1700m. The Fran Gold Project is next to Centerra Gold's Mt. Milligan Project, with Reserves of 264Mt grading 0.3 gram per tonne gold and 0.2% copper and proximate to Artemis Gold's Blackwater Mine, with Proven and Probable Reserves of 334Mt grading 0.8 grams per tonne gold. Both Mt. Milligan and the Blackwater Mine are two of the largest new copper/gold and gold mines respectively, in North America.

Highlights
The grant will cover 50% of the direct drilling costs up to a maximum refund of $57,500. An initial two (2) diamond drillholes are planned to test the Ganymede IP geophysical anomaly previously identified but left undrilled by Meteoric Resources in 20221. Notably Ganymede has an IP signature equivalent to the Butchers Creek gold deposit. Drilling is planned to commence this 2025 field season with assay results scheduled approximately 6 weeks thereafter.
WIN Metals Managing Director and CEO, Mr Steve Norregaard, commented:
“We welcome the financial support of the Western Australian government via the 31st round of EIS grant funding.
This target represents a compelling opportunity to enhance the already significant Butchers Creek gold project. Without government support this target may well have remained untested.
Success with this would potentially be a step change for underpinning the economics of the project.
This support will fast track testing and we look forward to seeing what may be at Ganymede.”
Background
The Ganymede gold target is located to the south-east of the Butchers Creek open pit and Mt Bradley gold mines illustrated in Figure 1. Meteoric’s 2022 IP geophysical survey identified Ganymede to have a similar geophysical signature to the known Butchers Creek gold deposit. It is believed the Ganymede target is a potential fold repeat of the Butchers Creek gold deposit that has yet to be drill tested as is illustrated in Figure 2 below.
