Bronco Resources updates Placer Mountain Gold operations
August 13 2026 – TheNewswire - BRONCO RESOURCES CORP. (TSX-V: BRON ) (“ Bronco ” or the “ Company ”), is pleased to provide an update on its 2026 exploration activities at the Placer Mountain Gold Project , located in the Similkameen Mining District, near Princeton, BC.
The 2026 exploration campaign represents the largest and most multifaceted field program undertaken on the Placer Mountain Gold Project to date and is designed to significantly advance the Company's understanding of multiple high-priority gold targets generated through Bronco's developing magnetic alteration exploration framework.
The exploration program integrates high-resolution airborne LiDAR, systematic soil and rock geochemistry, and detailed ground magnetic surveying to prioritize future drill targets across the Main Zone , Kodiak Zone and several other emerging exploration targets .
Bronco has successfully completed a high-resolution airborne LiDAR survey covering approximately 2,500 hectares at Placer Mountain. The survey provides a detailed digital elevation model (DEM) that will support structural interpretation, geological mapping, outcrop identification and future exploration planning across the property. Topographic lineations have been identified which are coincident with known gold mineralization and gold in soil anomalism.

Bronco also has completed a systematic soil geochemical survey consisting of 1,012 soil samples collected across the Eastern Palace and Grizzle priority target areas . Sampling focused on expanding geochemical coverage proximal to the Kodiak Zone , while evaluating additional prospective areas east, utilizing existing forestry roads. Field crews also prospected at the Grizzle Target, with 18 samples collected, focusing on newl
