Military Metals starts drill campaign at West Gore

2026-07-13 17:43 ET - News Release

Mr. Scott Eldridge reports

MILITARY METALS ANNOUNCES DRILLING CAMPAIGN AT PAST PRODUCING WEST GORE ANTIMONY - GOLD PROJECT NOVA SCOTIA, CANADA

Military Metals Corp. has commenced an exploration diamond drilling campaign at the company's 100-per-cent-owned West Gore antimony-gold project in Nova Scotia, Canada. The program is scheduled to begin this week of July 13 and is planned to include at least seven holes across two targets totalling 1,750 metres.

Highlights:

  • Seven drill holes planned totalling 1,750 metres;
  • Three holes planned to target the down-plunge extension of the past producing deposit below historical mine workings;
  • Four holes are planned to target the down plunge extension of the historically exploited Brook vein occurrence and continuity of a significant historical intercept.

Scott Eldridge, chief executive officer and director, stated: "West Gore is an underexplored asset with limited drilling since mining operations ceased in the early 1900s. Our initial reconnaissance produced compelling drill targets that we are excited to test. No previous operator has undertaken such an ambitious program to test the down-plunge continuity of the deposit below the historical mine workings. Furthermore, the Brook vein features an additional target with significant historical results that warrant drilling. Our drill plan at this target is designed to test the continuity of mineralization from historical drill hole 87-01, which intercepted 10.27 per cent antimony over 2.3 metres."

Mr. Eldridge further comments: "Antimony is designated by the government of Canada as a critical mineral essential for national security, defence and clean technologies. It is additionally recognized as a critical mineral under Nova Scotia's provincial minerals strategy, and the West Gore project standing as one of the most significant past-producing antimony deposits in Canadian history."

Previous disclosure discussing the work leading to the identification of geophysical and geochemical drill targets can be found in company news releases dated July 8, 2025, and Oct. 14, 2025. The results of 1987 drilling by Durham resources, including drill hole 87-01 is comprehensively discussed in publicly available Nova Scotia assessment report ar_me-1987-050.

About the West Gore project

West Gore was an important antimony producer during World War One, making significant contributions to the allied war efforts. Historical production from the West Gore district has been estimated at 7,761 tonnes of antimony concentrate (46 per cent Sb; Messervey, 1932) and 7,149 ounces gold (Bates, 1987). The project lies in the Meguma gold camp and consists of a past-producing underground mine, and an additional occurrence (the Brook vein) historically exploited with a single stope. Mineralization occurs as stibnite, native antimony, aurostibnite, and antimony-gold alloys and oxides. Aside from minor exploration work in the 1960s, 1980s and 2010s, the West Gore system remains significantly unexplored after World War One.

Widely accepted historical accounts detail that commercial mining at West Gore took place between 1883 and 1917 (Malcolm 1929). The Mining Association of Nova Scotia reports on its website that production ceased during the First World War when a ship load of antimony concentrate enroute to Wales for processing was torpedoed and sunk. The loss of this revenue bankrupted the mining company and commercial operations were terminated.
