Equinox Gold Corp. has announced significant new gold discoveries at its Valentine Gold Mine in Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada. Recent diamond drilling revealed high-grade gold intercepts at the newly identified Minotaur Zone, located 8 km northwest of the mill, and continuous mineralization at the Frank Zone, southwest of the existing Leprechaun open pit. Highlighted results include 2.68 g/t gold over 32 metres and 22.10 g/t gold over 6.3 metres. The company plans to conduct approximately 100 km of drilling in 2026, aiming to expand resources and explore additional targets, with the Frank Zone showing potential for development as a new open pit to extend the mine's life beyond its current 14-year plan.
