Western Exploration Mobilizes for 2025 Drill
Program at Wood Gulch
Targeting Bonanza-Grade Gold-Silver Zones at Aura Project,
Nevada
Reno, Nevada--(Newsfile Corp. - July 22, 2025) - Western Exploration Inc. (TSXV: WEX) (OTCQX:
WEXPF) (the "
Company
" or "
Western Exploration
") is pleased to announce that the Company has
officially mobilized crews and equipment to the Wood Gulch target at its flagship, 100% owned Aura
Project, located 80km north of Elko, Nevada.
"Mobilization marks an exciting milestone for our 2025 program," said Darcy Marud, CEO and
President. "We're targeting one of the most underexplored and historically high-grade areas on the
property. Wood Gulch, originally mined by Homestake in the late 1980's, has seen little modern
exploration but our updated model-enhanced by exploration success at our Gravel Creek deposit
indicates strong potential for new mineralization in this very prospective area."
Groundwork has commenced including final preparation of drill platforms and clearing up access roads.
Expectations are for drilling to commence in approximately 1 week.
The fully funded
4,000-meter diamond drill program
will focus on extensions of historic high-grade
gold-silver mineralization associated with the
Tomasina Fault Zone
, including areas down-dip of the
past-producing Wood Gulch open pit.
