Phenom Identifies New Zone at Dobbin Gold Project, Nevada

Phenom Identifies New Zone at Dobbin Gold Project, Nevada

Phenom Resources Corp. (TSXV: PHNM,OTC:PHNMF) (OTCQX: PHNMF) (FSE: 1PY0) ("Phenom" or the "Company") is pleased to report that preliminary prospecting and mapping have identified a new sizable oxidized and altered zone 700 metres long and 300 metres wide at Dobbin. The newly identified zone hosted in Denay Formation limestone is 400 metres northwest of the main gold soil anomaly (see Figure 1). Alteration and pathfinder geochemistry is promising. Rocks within the new zone are moderately oxidized with both limonite and hematite, and moderately to strongly decalcified, locally. Very limited rock chip sample results are available to date, all showing strongly anomalous arsenic values between 140 and 1070 ppm and mercury values between 8 and 20 ppm, typical pathfinders to Carlin-type gold systems. Gold values are weakly anomalous to 31 ppb. Additional rock sample assays are pending. Additional focused prospecting, sampling and mapping are planned to evaluate this new zone. This zone will likely be a candidate for grid soil sampling. The zone may reflect a deeper target than that in the main gold soil anomaly. It clearly indicates a larger system and possibly a greater opportunity at Dobbin.

In further news, the Company is pleased to report additional gold assays from chip sampling of mineralized bedrock within the main +2.1 kilometres long (1.3 miles) and 200 meters (660 feet) wide gold soil anomaly at Dobbin. In late June, the company hand-dug seven shallow trenches which exposed bedrock and delivered gold grades and continuity characteristic of a Carlin gold system. The seven initial hand-dug trenches ranged in length from 13 metres to 26 metres and were oriented perpendicular to the indicated trend of the soil anomaly and located over selected elevated gold soil sample sites with the objective of reproducing gold values in bedrock and determining the degree of grade continuity between soil sample sites. Highlights of four trenches are reported in Table 1.

Table 1: Trench Highlights from DTR-01 to DTR-04

Trench ID Length (m) Length (ft) Averaged grade (g/t Au)
DTR-01 4.57 15 0.133
DTR-02a 1.52 5 0.532
DTR-02b 3.66 12 0.50
including 1.83 6 0.73
DTR-03 3.05 10 0.424
DTR-04 14.63 48 0.36
Including 5.49 18 0.772
including 3.66 12 0.928

 

In each of the seven trenches, including those reported in the July 29, 2025 press release, mineralization was open at one or both end with ending assays between 0.206 and 10.35 g/t Au. The Company plans to extend the lengths of each trench.

In addition, four grab samples taken over a 200-metre length of the main soil gold anomaly east of trench DTR-01 returned values of between 0.858 g/t Au and 2.65 g/t Au.

Gold’s Meteoric Rise: Can the Price Break US$4,000 in 2025?

Gold’s momentum has price predictions heading upwards of US$4,000 per ounce by the year's end.

Rising by more than 44 percent since the start of the year, in 2025 the price of gold has hit highs once unthinkable. Aggressive central bank buying, US Federal Reserve rate decisions, ongoing geopolitical conflicts and US trade policy uncertainty have weakened the US dollar and escalated federal debt concerns. The resulting increase in demand for safe-haven assets is pushing investors toward gold, from physical bars to gold exchange-traded funds.

This week, the US government shutdown drove the price of gold even higher, approaching the US$3,900 level as it reached US$3,896.30 early in the morning of Wednesday (October 1) before pulling back.

Sitka Gold Eyes Resource Update as Drill Program at RC Gold Project Concludes

Sitka Gold (TSXV:SIG,OTCQB:SITKF,FWB:1RF) is gearing up for a potential resource update for its RC gold project in the Yukon, as more drill results come in from its 30,000 meter program.

“We're doing 30,000 meters this year. With the success we've had, we've been able to release about a third of our drilling so far. So we're still waiting for a lot of drill results, which is typical,” said Mike Burke, Sitka Gold’s vice president of corporate development.

“We'll see results rolling in between now and Christmas time, and maybe even a little bit later, depending on how the labs are doing. But with that amount of drilling, we'll certainly be in a position to update our resources on the Blackjack and Eiger.”

Gold Price Closes in on US$3,900 as US Government Shuts Down

Gold continued to set new records on Wednesday (October 1), nearly reaching US$3,900 per ounce.

After spending the summer months consolidating, the yellow metal began pushing higher toward the end of August.

It quickly reached US$3,500 and continued past US$3,600, US$3,700 and US$3,800; gold rose as high as US$3,895 per ounce on Wednesday before retreating back to the US$3,850 mark by 2:00 p.m. EDT.

End of Barrick Alliance Sends Japan Gold Shares Plummeting

Japan Gold (TSXV:JG,OTCQB:JGLDF) shares sank at the start of the week after the junior miner announced its five year strategic alliance with Barrick Mining (TSX:ABX,NYSE:B) will come to an end on October 31.

Established in February 2020, the partnership aimed to explore, develop and potentially mine gold deposits across Japan that could meet the scale requirements for tier one or tier two assets.

Over the life of the deal, Barrick invested about C$23.2 million (US$17.4 million) to fund geochemical and geophysical surveys, as well as support limited scout drilling, across Japan Gold’s 3,000 square kilometer portfolio.

Aya Gold & Silver Refutes Resource Inflation Allegations

Aya Gold & Silver (TSX:AYA,OTCQX:AYASF) President and CEO Benoit La Salle is calling fake news on Blue Orca Capital's claim that the company has inflated its silver resource with "phantom ounces."

On September 25, investment advisory firm Blue Orca published a short-seller report alleging resource inflation on the part of Aya. The mid-tier precious metals producer is one of the main mine operators in Morocco.

Its assets include the Zgounder silver mine and the Boumadine polymetallic project.
