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." Commented Peter Schloo, President, CEO and Director of Heritage

Will Rhind, CEO of GraniteShares, discusses gold's ongoing price momentum and latest all-time high, saying he sees fear as a key driver right now.
However, increasing M2 money supply is also an important underlying factor for the yellow metal.

The gold price reached yet another record high on Friday (April 11), breaking US$3,200 per ounce.
The precious metal has gained significant momentum since the beginning of the year. In morning trading on Friday it surged past the US$3,200 mark, climbing as high as US$3,244.33 per ounce.
The rise comes after a week of chaos caused by US President Donald Trump's on-again, off-again global tariff scheme.
Gold chart, April 4 to April 11, 2025.
Chart via the Investing News Network.
During the week, Trump reversed course on some of the tariff measures he announced on April 2.
Those measures included a 10 percent tariff on all but a handful of countries, including Canada and Mexico, with more severe reciprocal tariffs to come into effect this week. However, on Wednesday (April 9), Trump announced he would pause the additional tariffs for 90 days, saying more than 70 countries had contacted him to make deals.
Trump may have also been feeling pressure from economic advisors as a surge in treasury yields signaled a potential economic crisis brewing in the US bond market. Normally a safe haven during market volatility, the bond market saw a significant selloff this week as US tariffs and worries about the US economy's stability spooked traders.
Although the pause gave most countries some breathing room, tariffs against China were left on the table. After much back and forth, US tariffs levied against China have now increased to 145 percent.
The net effect of Trump's actions has been political and financial turmoil, sparking selloffs in major stock markets and pushing prices for safe-haven assets like gold to fresh records.
Additionally, China, Japan and South Korea agreed on March 30 to seek deeper free trade ties in response to the threat of tariffs from the US government. The deal marks a significant move by the three countries following decades of US diplomacy to maintain close relationships with Japan and South Korea.

Securities Disclosure: I, Charlotte McLeod, hold no direct investment interest in any company mentioned in this article.
Halcones Precious Metals Corp. (TSX-V: HPM) (the “Company” or “Halcones”) announces that it has closed the second and final tranche of its previously-announced private placement of units (the “Offering”) of the Company (the “Units”) pursuant to which the Company issued 7,707,200 Units at a price of $0.07 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of $539,504 (the “Final Tranche”). Each Unit is comprised of one common share in the capital of the Company (“Common Share”) and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.10 per Common Share for a period of 36 months following the date of issuance. Together with the first tranche of the Offering, the Company has issued an aggregate of 31,152,200 Units for gross proceeds of $2,180,654.
The Offering was led by Clarus Securities Inc. and iA Private Wealth Inc., as co-lead agents, on behalf of a syndicate of agents (collectively, the “Agents”) that included Red Cloud Securities Inc. and Haywood Securities Inc.
The Company plans to use the net proceeds of the Final Tranche to continue the exploration work on its Polaris Project as well as for general corporate working capital purposes.
In connection with the Final Tranche, the Agents received an aggregate cash fee equal to $37,765.28. In addition, the Company issued to the Agents, 539,504 non-transferable compensation warrants (the “Compensation Warrants”). Each Compensation Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price equal to $0.07 for a period of 36 months from the date hereof.
The Common Shares and Warrants issued pursuant to the Final Tranche are not subject to a statutory hold period pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws as the Final Tranche was completed pursuant to the listed issuer financing exemption under Part 5A of NI 45-106. The Final Tranche remains subject to final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Non-Brokered Offering
Further to the closing of the Offering, Halcones announces a non-brokered private placement financing of up to 7,150,000 units (the “NB Units”) to be priced at $0.07 per NB Unit for gross proceeds of up to $500,500 (the “NB Offering”).
Each NB Unit will be comprised of one Common Share and one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “NB Warrant”). Each NB Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.10 per Common Share for a period of 36 months following the completion of the NB Offering. Securities issued under the NB Offering are expected to carry a hold period of 4 months and one day from the date of issue as may be required under applicable securities laws.
The Company plans to use the aggregate net proceeds of the NB Offering to continue the exploration work on its Polaris project as well as general corporate working capital purposes.
The NB Offering is scheduled to close on or about April 22, 2025 and is subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.
Certain insiders of the Company may acquire NB Units in the NB Offering. Any participation by insiders in the NB Offering would constitute a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101”). However, the Company expects such participation would be exempt from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61-101 as neither the fair market value subscribed for by the insiders under the NB Offering, nor the consideration for the NB Units paid by such insiders, will exceed 25% of the Company's market capitalization.
A material change report including details with respect to the related party transaction is not expected to be able to be filed less than 21 days prior to the closing of the NB Offering as the Company has not received confirmation of the participation of insiders in the NB Offering and the Company deems it reasonable in the circumstances so as to be able to avail itself of potential financing opportunities and complete the NB Offering in an expeditious manner.
This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to sell any securities in the United States. The securities have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. Persons unless registered under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration is available.

NevGold CEO, Brandon Bonifacio, comments: “The discovery of more significant oxide gold-antimony drill results in drillholes at Cadillac Valley is a key development at our Limo Butte oxide gold-antimony project. Cadillac Valley is over 2 km from Resurrection Ridge, and we have now defined over 5 km of strike length between these two advanced target areas. The oxide gold-antimony grades, near-surface mineralization, and hole thickness highlight the significant gold-antimony potential that we have at the Project. We continue to analyze and re-assay holes from both Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley and we have a number of holes to release with combined gold-antimony results. The timing and market conditions are opportune to continue to advance the gold-antimony potential at Limo Butte as there is a clear commitment from the United States to advance high-quality, domestic, mineral projects.”

Limo Butte Geology & Antimony Potential
A review of historical geochemical and drilling data at the Limousine Butte Project has identified multiple areas with strong gold-antimony potential. These zones correlate closely with outcrops of the Devonian Pilot Shale, the primary host rock for Carlin-type gold mineralization in the area. Positive gold grade at Limousine Butte is typically associated with silicification and the formation of jasperoid breccias within the Pilot Shale, an alteration feature also observed in the positive antimony results.
Through the Project data review, the Company uncovered reports detailing two small-scale historic mining operations at the Nevada Antimony Mine and Lage Antimony Prospect within the Limo Butte Project boundary. The Nevada Antimony Mine featured two prospect pits that extracted stibnite (formula: Sb2S3) from a hydrothermal breccia. The Lage Antimony Prospect reported historical unverified sampling results with up to 14.46% Antimony with additional prospect pits extracting antimony. The Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology (“NBMG”) had historical reports on both of these which can be found here: Nevada Antimony Mine Report Lage Antimony Prospect Report
Historical geochemical rock chip sampling within the past-producing Golden Butte pit from a Brigham Young University (“BYU”) Thesis study produced numerous results that exceeded 1% antimony in jasperoid breccias (see Figure 1). Several results were greater then 5% antimony, including a sample of 9.6% antimony with visible stibnite and stibiconite. BYU Thesis Report
NevGold VP Exploration, Greg French, comments: “The antimony re-assay program continues to produce positive gold-antimony results, and we are encouraged by the gold-antimony grade as well as the footprint at Limo Butte. We have currently defined over 5 km of strike length between Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley, and these initial results at Cadillac Valley have a footprint that spans over 1.5 km by 500 meters. We are continuing to analyze the data from both Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley to incorporate results in the planning for the next drill program.”

US Executive Order – Announced March 20, 2025
The Company is pleased to report the recent, sweeping Executive Order to strengthen American mineral production and reduce U.S. reliance on foreign nations for its mineral supply. Antimony (Sb) has been identified as an important “Critical Mineral” in the United States essential for national security, clean energy, and technology applications, yet no domestically mined supply currently exists.
The Executive Order invokes the use of the Defense Production Act as part of a broad United States (“US”) Government effort to expand domestic minerals production on national security grounds. As it relates to project permitting, the Order states that it will "identify priority projects that can be immediately approved or for which permits can be immediately issued, and take all necessary or appropriate actions…to expedite and issue the relevant permits or approvals." Furthermore, the Order includes provisions to accelerate access to private and public capital for domestic projects, including the creation of a "dedicated mineral and mineral production fund for domestic investments" under the Development Finance Corporation ("DFC").
This decisive action by the US Government highlights the urgent need to expand domestic minerals output to support supply chain security in the United States. This important Order will help revitalize domestic mineral production by improving the permitting process and providing financial support to qualifying domestic projects.
Importance of Antimony
Antimony is considered a “Critical Mineral” by the United States based on the U.S. Geological Survey’s 2022 list (U.S.G.S. (2022)). “Critical Minerals” are metals and non-metals essential to the economy and national security. Antimony is utilized in all manners of military applications, including the manufacturing of armor piercing bullets, night vision goggles, infrared sensors, precision optics, laser sighting, explosive formulations, hardened lead for bullets and shrapnel, ammunition primers, tracer ammunition, nuclear weapons and production, tritium production, flares, military clothing, and communication equipment. Other uses include technology (semi-conductors, circuit boards, electric switches, fluorescent lighting, high quality clear glass and lithium-ion batteries) and clean-energy storage.
Globally, approximately 90% of the world’s current antimony supply is produced by China, Russia, and Tajikistan. Beginning on September 15, 2024, China, which is responsible for nearly half of all global mined antimony output and dominates global refinement and processing, announced that it will restrict antimony exports. In December-2024, China explicitly restricted antimony exports to the United States citing its dual military and civilian uses, which further exacerbated global supply chain concerns. (Lv, A. and Munroe, T. (2024)) The U.S. Department of Defense (“DOD”) has designated antimony as a “Critical Mineral” due to its importance in national security, and governments are now prioritizing domestic production to mitigate supply chain disruptions. Projects exploring antimony sources in North America play a key role in addressing these challenges.
Perpetua Resources Corp. (“Perpetua”) has the most advanced domestic gold-antimony project in the United States. Perpetua’s project, known as Stibnite, is located in Idaho approximately 130 km northeast of NevGold’s Nutmeg Mountain and Zeus projects. Positive advancements at Stibnite including the technical development and permitting has led to US$75 million in Department of Defense (“DOD”) awards, and over $1.8 billion in indicative financing from the Export Import Bank of the United States (“US EXIM”) (see Perpetua Resources News Release from April 8, 2024) (Perpetua Resources. (2025))
