Delta Resources Further Expands Eureka Gold Footprint with Initial Drill Holes of 2025 Drilling Program at the Delta-1 Project
Delta Resources Further Expands Eureka Gold Footprint with Initial Drill
Holes of 2025 Drilling Program at the Delta-1 Project: Thunder Bay,
Ontario.
May 28, 2025 / Kingston, ON / Newsfile Corp Delta Resources Limited (“Delta” or “the Company”) ( TSX-
V:DLTA) (OTCBB:DTARF) (FRANKFURT:6GO1) is pleased to announce assay results from its initial 2025 drilling
program at the Delta-1 Project in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
HIGHLIGHTS:
• Results confirm the potential for a large, open pittable deposit remaining open along strike
and at depth with multi-million-ounce viability.
• Drilling has expanded the mineralized envelope at Eureka to a vertical depth of over 400
metres with continued exploration targeting higher grades at depth.
• Drilling has expanded the mineralized envelope at Eureka 600-metres to the west indicating
significant opportunity for continued expansion along strike
• Drilling has confirmed a new zone located 250 metres south of the Eureka Deposit. This new
zone has been defined over a strike length of 1 kilometre , is only sporadically tested, and is
open at depth and to the west.
• Delta is utilizing the current pause in drilling activities to identify and refine specific targets
at Eureka and also at the property-scale, with the goal of expanding the potential resource
with its next drill program.
Andre Tessier, President and CEO of Delta Resources stated: “ Yet another very successful drilling program at
Eureka in early 2025. This most recent phase of drilling extended the Eureka deposit mineralization another 600
metres to the west and to a vertical depth of over 400 metres. A new zone was discovered 200 metres south of
Eureka with the potential to add significant resources to the current deposit. A single drill hole also confirmed that
gold mineralization and a very wide corridor of alteration persists at depths of up to 550 metres vertical and 250
metres below the previously known mineralization.”
Tessier further commented: “We believe that our unique location off the Trans-Canada Highway, so close to
Thunder Bay greatly enhances Eureka’s potential for expedited development. Economic scenarios are currently
under internal review. Delta is well financed and currently has more than $3 million in cash with no debt and has
another valuable property with significant potential in Delta-2. Delta’s exploration is fully financed for 2025.”
Between January and April 2025, Delta completed twelve (12) drill holes at the Eureka Gold Deposit, for a total of
5,909.80 metres, before drilling was paused for spring breakup and to evaluate the current impact of the expanded
gold mineralization footprint at Eureka. This initial drilling program of 2025 was focussed exclusively on the Eureka
Gold Deposit and nearby targets. The objectives of the program were to expand the gold inventory at Eureka and
enhance the understanding of the geometry and geological controls of the gold mineralization.
Results are shown in Table 1 at the end of this release . Please refer also the maps and sections of the drill holes
for better context.
The twelve (12) drill holes of the program discussed in this press release were testing specific targets with the
objective of adding to the current gold inventory at Eureka (see figures 1, 2 and 3). The targets include:
• The west extension of the deposit,
• The down-plunge extensions of the west and main rakes,
• The gap in the drilling in the central portion of the deposit,
• The extension of a gold -rich, 4-metre-wide quartz vein intersected in drill hole D1 -23-32 at depth “vein
32”, an area where volcanic rocks were interpreted at depth, and
• Further definition of the new southern zone, herein called the “South Horizon”, located 200 metres south
of the deposit where mechanical trenching in 2023 returned gold assays of interest. Drill hole D1-25-123
appears to have intercepted this zone and expands the strike length to over one kilometre, open at depth
and to the west.
• Complete results since the discovery of Eureka can be found at https://www.deltaresources.ca/delta-1-
gold-project/.

Discussion of Results
West Extension Target : Drill hole D1-25-124 was aimed at an Induced Polarization target showing the west
extension of the Eureka Deposit. The drill hole is located 600 metres away from known mineralization at Eureka
and returned 0.44 g/t Au over 11.9 metres . This new intercept of Eureka -Style gold mineralization extends the
known mineralization to a strike length of 3 kilometres and opens enormous potential to extend the deposit for 600
metres and beyond.
West Rake Target : Drill Hole s D1-25-125 and D1 -25-126 were aimed at the down -plunge extension of an
interpreted west -plunging rake of the gold mineralization in the western portion of the deposit. Both drill holes
intercepted two mineralized zones, confirming the interpretation with gold grades that appear to improve at depth.
Drill holes D1-25-125 intercepted 0.49 g/t Au over 13.0 metres and 0.70 g/t Au over 35.5 metres including an
intercept of 1.17 g/t Au over 17.5 metres. Drill hole D1-25-126 intercepted 1.19 g/t Au over 15.5 metres and 0.30
g/t Au over 17.0 metres.
Central Gap Target : Drill holes D1-25-116 and D1 -25-127 were aimed at filling a large gap in the drilling in the
western portion of the deposit as drill holes in the area had been drilled in 2019 and 2021. The drill holes intersected
three (3) gold zones in sedimentary rocks, therefore filling the gap with gold mineralization that will increase the
gold inventory at Eureka. Drill hole D1-25-116 intersected 0.57 g/t gold over 39.5 metres, 0.60 g/t gold over 15.5
metres and 0.44 g/t gold over 6.2 metres. Drill hole D1-25-127 intersected 0.57 g/t gold over 39.5 metres, 0.60
g/t gold over 15.5 metres and 0.44 g/t gold over 6.2 metres.
Main Rake Target: Drill Holes D1-25-117, D1-25-119a and D1-25-122 were aimed at the down-plunge extension
of an interpreted west-plunging rake of the gold mineralization in the central portion of the deposit, at vertical depths
of 400 -550 metres. Drill hole D1-25-117 extended the main rake by approximately 200 metres down -plunge,
intersecting the gold mineralization at a vertical depth of over 400 metres . The drill hole intersected over 150
metres of the alteration corridor in sedimentary rocks and feldspar -phyric dikes. Specks of visible gold were
observed and two mineralized zones are reported grading 0.72 g/t Au over 4.5 metres and 0.62 g/t Au over 23.8
metres. Drill hole D1-25-122 extended the main rake down-dip by approximately 140 metres, also intersecting the
gold mineralization at a vertical depth of over 400 metres. The drill hole intersected three mineralized zones grading
0.52 g/t Au over 16.7 metres, 0.35 g/t Au over 13.5 metres and 1.33 g/t Au over 9.0 metres . Drill hole D1-25-
119A was aimed at extending the gold mineralization at a vertical depth of over 550 metres; 250 metres deeper
than the known gold mineralization to date. The hole intersected sporadic, highly anomalous gold values over 194
metres, associated with a highly altered dike swarm , with gold assays ranging between 0.1 to 1.33 g/t Au. This is
extremely encouraging as it shows the strongly altered mineralized corridor persisting at a vertical depth of 550
metres, demonstrating the strength and size of the mineralized system with the potential to host high -grade gold
mineralization.
Vein-32 Extension Target : Drill Hole D1-25-118A was aimed at extending an intercept from drill hole D1 -23-32
where a 4.5 m wide quartz vein and alteration returned 2.62 g/t gold over 9.0 metres. Although drill hole 118A did
not intersect the quartz vein, a wide zone of alteration and mineralization was intersected some 70 metres to the
east, grading 0.53 g/t gold over 26.3 metres. A second zone was also intersected grading 0.74 g/t Au over 7.5
metres.
Deep Volcanics Target: Drill Hole D1-25-120 attempted to drill sub-parallel to the unconformity to intersect mafic
volcanics at depth. Despite several narrow, mineralized intervals and broad alteration zones, the main mineralized
zone was missed. Assays nevertheless returned 0.41 g/t Au over 9.0 metres , 0.38 g/t Au over 5.0 metres and
2.9 g/t Au over 2.9 metres.
South Horizon Target: Drill Hole D1-25-123 was aimed at a new target that emerged from a mechanical trenching
and sampling program that yielded assays of interest. The mineralized zone shows identical characteristics as the
Eureka gold mineralization but is hosted by a diorite intrusion, a lithology that was previously thought to be
unmineralized. Near-surface assays returned 0.84 g/t Au over 11.0 metres, including a section grading 1.02 g/t
Au over 8.1 metres. The new zone is located approximately 2 50 metres south of the known Eureka deposit and
may correlate with previous intercepts in drill holes D1-23-57 (1.39 g/t Au over 3.5 metres ), D1-23-58 (1.34 g/t
Au over 5.0 metres), D1-23-72 (1.31 g/t Au over 4.3 metres), D1 -23-86 (1.45 g/t Au over 6.0 metres), D1-24-
108 (6.25 g/t Au over 1.3 metres and D1 -24-109 (11.4 g/t Au over 0.8 metres) . If this interpretation is correct,
this new zone is already defined and only sporadically tested, over a strike length of 1 kilometre . The zone is also
open at depth and to the west.
So far, Delta has completed a total of 127 drill holes for a total of 41,485 metres at the Delta -1 Gold Project since
2019, including the exploration drill holes that preceded the discovery of the Eureka Gold Deposit. Gold
mineralization has now been intersected on strike for over 3.0 kilometres, from surface to 400 metres vertical depth,
and with a true width of up to 150 metres.
Upcoming Exploration Program at Delta-1
Delta is currently planning its next phase of exploratio n at Eureka and at the Delta -1 property. Work will include
geological mapping, prospecting, sampling and mechanical trenching, followed by an additional phase of drilling.
Analytical Protocol and QA/QC
Chemical analyses reported in this press release were performed at AGAT Laboratories. AGAT Laboratories is
accredited to ISO 17025 by the Standards Council of Canada (SCC). Sample preparation was performed in
Thunder Bay, Ontario. Sampling and analytical procedures are subject to a comprehensive Quality Assurance and
Quality Control program that includes duplicate samples, blanks, and analytical standards.
The following assaying protocol was adopted at Delta-1 to reduce the assay variability due to nugget effect caused
by visible gold:
• If visible gold is observed in the sample or within the assumed mineralized zone , the assay is performed
by Metallic Screening whereby the entire sample is crushed, a 1 kg portion is pulverized and screened to
106µm and analyzed by 50 g fire assay with gravimetric finish at the AGAT Laboratory in Thunder Bay,
Ontario.
• If no visible gold is observed or outside of the mineralized zones, an initial assay is performed by 50 g Fire
Assay with ICP-OES finish at the AGAT Laboratory in Thunder Bay, Ontario. If the assay result exceeds
2.0 g/t gold, remaining rejects are pulverized, a 1 kg portion is screened to 106µm and analyzed by 50 g
fire assay with gravimetric finish at the AGAT Laboratory in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
NQ-size drill core was sawed in half lengthwise and half of the core was sampled and sealed in clean plastic bags
before being shipped for assay. The remaining half of the core was replaced in core boxes and is stored at Delta’s
core storage facilities. Standards and blanks are inserted in the sequence of samples on site as quality assurance
and quality control in addition to the regular insertion of blank, duplicate, and standard samples accredited by SGS
Canada Minerals Laboratories during the analytical process.
Mineral intervals are calculated using a 0.3 g/t Au cutoff . Reported intervals are limited where sections of core
spanning 5 metres or more return grades below cutoff grade.
