White Caps
OVERVIEW
Location & Infrastructure
White Caps sits in the Manhattan District of Nye County, Nevada, immediately adjacent to and along strike (<2 km) of the past-producing Manhattan Gold Mine, now held by Scorpio Gold (TSXV: SGN), and approximately 20 km south of Kinross Gold’s operating Round Mountain mine, which has produced more than 15 million ounces of gold. The setting gives G50 access to established infrastructure, an experienced workforce and a region with world-class gold endowment and a supportive operating environment.
Geology & Mineralisation
- Calc-silicate and skarn-altered rocks on the deeper mine dumps and in drill core
- Disseminated molybdenite and chalcopyrite within the skarn
- Disseminated magnetite through the clastic sedimentary rocks
- Rising gold grades with depth in the historic workings — a crosscut on the deepest level (~400 m / 1,300 ft) sampled 10 m at 94 g/t Au (Hughes, 1960)
- A ~1 km-long magnetic-high anomaly in G50’s aeromagnetic data, interpreted as a blind intrusion at depth
- The 2026 drilling is deliberately testing down-dip toward that magnetic anomaly.

2026 Core Drilling
G50’s 2026 program completed five core holes for 2,220.1 m, testing down-dip of the known limestone-hosted gold toward the interpreted blind intrusion. The first hole reported, WCD26-01, was collared roughly halfway between the historic Manhattan Consolidated shaft and the centre of the magnetic anomaly. It cut three calcareous units about 200 m down-dip of surface-mined mineralisation, with the high-grade intercept coming from the middle unit:
| Hole ID | From (m) | Interval (m) | Au (g/t) | Ag (g/t) |
| WCD26-01 | 305.50 | 13.50 | 7.67 | 2.38 |
| including | 305.50 | 3.93 | 23.95 | 7.29 |
- Grade — high-grade, deeply oxidised gold, with evidence of grade increasing closer to the interpreted blind intrusions.
- Geology — hosted within at least three separate decalcified, silicified calcareous units inside a dominantly clastic package.
- Pathfinders — arsenic and antimony with the decalcified limestone; molybdenum and chalcopyrite with skarn at depth.
- Magnetic signature — indicative of large, blind intrusions at depth — the primary driver of the system.
Next Steps
- Assays from the remaining four 2026 core holes (WCD26-02 to -05) expected within roughly two months.
- Detailed surface mapping and sampling east and west of the current drill area.
- Drill rig secured; planning underway for follow-up core drilling later in 2026, ahead of the northern winter.
- Final follow-up targets to be set once all current assays are received.
