Heritage Mining
Overview
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.
Company Highlights
- Heritage Mining is an exploration and development mining company with district-scale opportunities in Ontario, Canada, targeting gold and copper.
- The company’s flagship project, the Drayton-Black Lake project, has strong historical results but has never been systematically explored from a low-grade, high-tonnage perspective. Heritage is the first company to own the entire area and will conduct a thorough exploration program to identify promising mineralizations.
- Drayton-Black Lake project has existing infrastructure that provides year-round highway access to the property, a significant advantage over other regional projects.
- Samples from the company’s 2022 field program showed multiple high-grade gold vein system channels.
- Heritage Mining’s Contact Bay project contains high-grade copper-gold mineralizations and exposes the company to the critical minerals market that is rapidly growing within Ontario.
- A veteran management team leads the company with a combined 100 years of experience in the mining sector.
Key Projects
Drayton-Black Lake Project
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.
Project Highlights:
- Priority Zones Identified: Heritage Mining has identified four priority gold zones with multiple historic high-grade intersections that will guide future exploration programs. These zones are:
- Moretti Zone - Samples up to 1,212 g/t gold
- Split Lake Zone - 0.7 meters at 14.8 g/t gold
- Shaft Zone - 2 meters at 14.5 g/t gold
- West Zone - Up to 150.86 g/t gold
- Over 100 Years of Historical Data: Exploration data from the past century is being compiled to create a greater understanding of the area that will rapidly advance the project by guiding future exploration decisions.
- 2022 Field Program Completion: Exploration program included property-wide MagEM airborne geophysical surveying, regional mapping, prospecting and sampling in addition to the recently completed channel sampling work. Results from grab samples include:
- up to 58.1 g/t gold at Main Prospect
- up to 24.6 g/t gold at Pond Prospect
- up to 46.5 g/t gold at New Millennium Prospect
- up to 208 g/t gold at Moretti
- up to 0.95 g/t gold at Black Lake
- 2023 Drill Program Highlights: Completion of drill program validated and expanded the deformation corridor, now boasting an impressive ~200 meters width, 1 kilometer in strike length and a depth reaching at least 145 meters.
- Alcona Area, HML23-007: 0.90 g/t gold over 10.15 meters from 104.75 meters
- Moretti Area, HML23-012: 1.01 g/t gold over 5 meters from 105 meters
The Alcona Area has been approved for Phase II Drill Program to define its deposit potential.
Contact Bay Copper-Gold Project
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.
Project Highlights:
- Promising Mineralization Styles: The asset contains a diverse range of mineralizations, including:
- Northeast - Rock sample assayed 0.40 g/t gold and 0.7 percent copper, sheared and altered gabbro
- Northeast – A 1.2-meter chip channel assayed 4.2 g/t Au
- Platinum and Palladium values up to 0.28g/t
- Priority Targets Identified: Heritage Minerals has three priority drill targets, each with high-grade historic drill intersections that warrant additional follow-up.
- Impressive Geophysical Interpretation: Exciting highlights from exploration work include the interpretation defining two substantial mafic-ultramafic intrusive bodies with multiple nickel-copper-PGE (platinum group elements) target areas:
- Nabish Lake Area: ~ 5 kilometers long, up to 1 kilometer wide, over 1 kilometer in depth)
- North Nabish Lake Area: ~ 2 kilometers long, 1 kilometer wide, over 1 kilometer in depth
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.

Heritage Provides Exploration Update on New Millennium Prospect
(TheNewswire)

NOT INTENDED FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES
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 Provides Exploration Update on New Millennium Prospect - Successful Drill Interception of Mineralized Shear Zone Structures
(TheNewswire)
 | |||||||||
 |  |  |  | ||||||
VANCOUVER, BC, February 27, 2025 TheNewswire - Heritage Mining Ltd. (CSE: HML FRA:Y66) (" Heritage " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce it has completed its drill program at the New Millennium area 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 Drayton Black Lake (" DBL ") Property (Figure 3 and 4). The Company will proceed to the Zone 3 area, then to Rognan area on the Contact Bay Property as previously communicated in press releases dated December 19, 2024 and December 11, 2024 respectively.
New Millennium Target Highlights:
- Total 556m in nine holes completed vs planned 370m over seven holes. Additional meterage was driven from a favorable mineralization intersection. Core logging and processing is underway at the time of writing.
- Drill holes show multiple occurrences (up to 51.40m core length) ofavariably mineralized shear zones, in granitic/felsic intrusions, and massive to semi massive quartz veins (Figure 1 and 2) 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).

NevGold Discovers More Significant Oxide Gold-Antimony Results: 2.11 g/t AuEq Over 67.1 Meters (1.30 g/t Au And 0.18% Antimony), Including 4.29 g/t AuEq Over 30.5 Meters (2.79 g/t Au And 0.33% Antimony), and Also Including 7.12 g/t AuEq Over 16.8 Meters (5.05 g/t Au And 0.46% Antimony) at the Limousine Butte Project, Nevada
NevGold Corp. (“NevGold” or the “Company”) (TSXV:NAU) (OTCQX:NAUFF) (Frankfurt:5E50) is pleased to announce that it has discovered further significant oxide gold-antimony (“Antimony”, “Sb”) drill results at its Limousine Butte Project (the “Project”, “Limo Butte”) in Nevada. The Company continues to unlock the substantial gold-antimony potential of the Project, highlighting its promising prospects for further exploration and development in Nevada, one of the world’s prolific mining jurisdictions.
Key Highlights
- Further positive, near-surface, oxide gold-antimony historical drillholes at Resurrection Ridge include:
- LB023: 2.11 g/t AuEq* over 67.1 meters (1.30 g/t Au and 0.18% Sb), including 4.29 g/t AuEq* over 30.5 meters (2.79 g/t Au and 0.33% Sb), and also including 7.12 g/t AuEq* over 16.8 meters (5.05 g/t Au and 0.46% Sb)
- LB029: 1.16 g/t AuEq* over 79.3 meters (0.53 g/t Au and 0.14% Sb), including 1.86 g/t AuEq* over 18.3 meters (0.53 g/t Au and 0.14% Sb)
- *Gold equivalents (“AuEq”) are based on assumed metals prices of US$2,000/oz of gold and US$35,000 per tonne of antimony (~30% discount to current spot prices), and assumed metals recoveries of 85% for gold and 70% for antimony.
- Drillholes at Resurrection Ridge are drilled with spacing showing strong potential to advance the Project to an initial gold-antimony Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) (see Figure 1)
- Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley oxide gold-antimony mineralization footprint demonstrates the significant oxide gold-antimony potential across a large, open mineralized footprint (Figure 1)
- All areas at the Project with gold-antimony potential are permitted and ready to drill under the Limo Butte Plan of Operations (“PoO”) approved in November-2024 (see NevGold News Release from November 27, 2024)
- Significant antimony (Sb) upside: historical drilling had an upper detection limit of 1% Sb but many drill intervals exceeded the limit; these holes are currently being re-assayed at American Assay Lab in Reno, Nevada without the 1% upper detection limit
- NevGold will continue re-evaluating historical drilling from the Project, focusing on both oxide gold and antimony; large portions of the existing database were not analyzed for antimony creating a significant, low-cost opportunity to re-assay historical drilling
Limo Butte Planned 2025 Activities / Status Update
NevGold will continue its active exploration program at Limo Butte including:
- Evaluate the historical geological database with focus on gold and antimony (in progress);
- Re-analyze historical drilling with focus on gold and antimony (in progress);
- Drill test gold-antimony targets (subject to the results of the evaluation);
- Initiate preliminary metallurgical studies (in preparation).

NevGold CEO, Brandon Bonifacio, comments: “The discovery of more significant oxide gold-antimony drill results at Resurrection Ridge continues to be a key development at our emerging Limo Butte oxide gold-antimony project. Drillholes at Resurrection Ridge have been drilled with spacing showing strong potential to advance the target area to an initial Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”). We have now defined two large mineralization footprints at both Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley, and the oxide gold-antimony grades, near-surface mineralization, and hole thickness highlight the significant gold-antimony opportunity at the Project. As we have stated in previous news releases, we continue to analyze and re-assay holes from both Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley and we still have a number of holes to release with combined gold-antimony results. To date, we have released a total of 15 holes, and we will have frequent updates as we receive further assays from the lab. The timing and market conditions continue to improve, and this is an optimal environment 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.
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 re-assay program continues to produce positive gold-antimony results. The gold-antimony mineralization in the northwest-southeast direction at Resurrection Ridge extends approximately 500 meters (Figure 2) and remains open to the east. Previous geological models have interpreted the dolomite cover to be the base unit that is below mineralization. Re-logging drill holes and the outcroppings to the east indicate that the dolomite cover is actually a thrust plate over the host Pilot Shale unit, expanding the prospective target area. We have currently defined over 5 km of strike length between Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley, and we will continue to analyze the data from both of these target areas to incorporate results in the planning for the next drill program and metallurgical test work.”

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”, NASDAQ:PPTA, TSX:PPTA) 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))
