Engineer Gold Mines commences exploration program
July 28, 2026 – TheNewswire - Vancouver, BC, Canada – E ngineer Gold Mines Ltd. (the "Company") (TSX-V: EAU | OTC: EGMLF | WKN: A3EEVJ ) is pleased to announce the 2026 Phase I exploration program is underway on its 100% owned Engineer Gold Project, located 30 kilometres southwest of Atlin in northwestern British Columbia (see News Release dated April 29, 2026). This large property comprises 18,319 hectares covering a 25 kilometre long contiguous claim block and hosts the historic Engineer Gold Mine ( “Engineer” ), the TAG Property ( “TAG” ), the Wann River Prospect ( “Wann” ), plus numerous additional mineral occurrences. The first phase of the 2026 program consists of soil and rock sampling at Engineer, soil geochemistry and an in depth core review and resampling at TAG.
The Company is fully permitted to follow this with a Phase II program consisting of diamond drilling, excavator trenching and induced polarization geophysical surveys in the Engineer Mine area. Phase II plans will be announced once finalized. The Engineer Project hosts multiple styles of mineralization including high-grade epithermal gold-silver veins, polymetallic veins, and structurally controlled bulk tonnage style gold systems.
Engineer Gold Mine Phase I program is designed to expand the Engineer Mine’s high grade gold mineralization and adjacent bulk tonnage targets along strike of previously identified structural corridors labelled Shear A and Shear B. These structures have been traced by geophysics and geochemistry for over 3 kilometres to the south of the past producing Engineer Mine. Phase I work will include an expanded soil and rock sampling program. TAG Property As well, Phase I work includes a rigorous core review and infill core sampling program at the TAG property 6 km north of the Engineer Mine.
From 2006-2008, a total 11,520 metres of diamond drilling in 69 holes was competed at TAG ( (Fekete and Simper (2009),
