  • West Point Gold reported results from 18 holes at Gold Chain's Tyro Main and Decimal Hill zones, led by core hole GC26-138 with 30.4 metres averaging 2.31 g/t gold.
  • The headline result, core hole GC26-138, returned 30.4 metres averaging 2.31 grams per tonne gold. The reported interval is bisected by a 2.8-metre void that the company interprets as the historic 300 Level adit; mineralization above and below the void returned 2.18 g/t gold over 7.7 metres and 2.36 g/t over 22.7 metres, respectively.
  • The 30.4-metre headline interval is not a single uninterrupted mineralized segment because a 2.8-metre historic working crosses the interval; the company separately disclosed the grades above and below that void.

The development

West Point Gold reported assay results from 18 holes representing 4,304 metres of drilling at the Tyro Main and adjacent Decimal Hill zones of its Gold Chain Project in Arizona.

The headline result, core hole GC26-138, returned 30.4 metres averaging 2.31 grams per tonne gold. The reported interval is bisected by a 2.8-metre void that the company interprets as the historic 300 Level adit; mineralization above and below the void returned 2.18 g/t gold over 7.7 metres and 2.36 g/t over 22.7 metres, respectively.

West Point Gold estimated a 28-metre true width for the GC26-138 intercept when the historic working is included. The company also reported elevated grades adjacent to the old workings and said 603 metres of results from Black Dyke remained outstanding.

The company said it plans to resume drilling in mid-September and that a maiden resource estimate for Tyro remains targeted for late Q3 or early Q4 2026. Those timing statements are forward-looking and should be checked against subsequent project updates.

Why this matters

The new assays add data from the upper Tyro Main zone while the project moves toward its first resource estimate.

Because this is paid news dissemination, the commercial relationship is disclosed prominently while the factual summary remains tied to the cited source.

Industry and company context

The 30.4-metre headline interval is not a single uninterrupted mineralized segment because a 2.8-metre historic working crosses the interval; the company separately disclosed the grades above and below that void.

This article was added during the August 6, 2026 archive review and preserves the announcement date so the $WPG timeline remains chronological.

How to evaluate the update

The core facts to evaluate are the quantified terms, dates and conditions disclosed in the source. The 30.4-metre headline interval is not a single uninterrupted mineralized segment because a 2.8-metre historic working crosses the interval; the company separately disclosed the grades above and below that void.

Readers should separate completed actions from targets, proposed transactions, management expectations and other forward-looking statements.

Execution and risk considerations

Drill intercepts do not by themselves establish a mineral resource or economic mine, and the estimated true-width interpretation can change as the geological model is refined.

Forward-looking statements, estimates and management expectations can change; readers should use later company filings and technical disclosure for current status.

What to watch next

  • The remaining 603 metres of Black Dyke assays.
  • The stated mid-September drilling restart.
  • The maiden Tyro mineral resource estimate and its underlying assumptions.
  • How the company reconciles historic workings with the resource model.

Cornerstone perspective

The new assays add data from the upper Tyro Main zone while the project moves toward its first resource estimate. The most useful evidence now is the next verifiable milestone rather than the headline in isolation.

Cornerstone will treat later source documents as controlling where they supersede the August 5, 2026 disclosure.

Source review

This report was checked against the linked primary issuer, newswire or regulatory source and independently cross-checked against a second public-market, newswire or regulatory record during the August 6, 2026 editorial review.

Figures, dates, transaction status and forward-looking conditions are stated conservatively; later disclosure controls where it supersedes the original announcement.
