This filing reports highly positive drill results from the Lapon Canyon Gold Project, a key asset for Nevada Canyon Gold Corp. The significant gold intercepts, including high-grade findings over substantial widths, confirm and extend mineralization. The identification of monzonite as a host rock further increases the project's potential for larger-scale gold emplacement. These results are crucial for the company's plan to complete a maiden NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate by year-end, which could significantly de-risk the project and add substantial value to Nevada Canyon's 50% earn-in agreement and 3% net smelter royalty.
