Montreal, Quebec–(Newsfile Corp. – March 23, 2026) – Bullion Gold Resources Corp. (TSXV: BGD) (“Bullion Gold” or the “Corporation“) is pleased to announce first assay results from the Phase 2 drilling at the Paquin Prospect have returned bonanza gold grades. Previously reported intervals of logged visible gold (see announcement 17th February 2026) had been prioritised for analyses and returned a bonanza gold intercept of 7.5m @ 41.81 g/t Au from 182m (BO-26-63). Assay results are still pending for the remainder of hole BO-26-63, along with those for the remaining 6 drill holes of the Phase 2 drill program. Hole BO-26-63 was drilled at 3300 azimuth to test for high grade gold lodes that potentially run parallel to the previous drill-hole orientation of 2100. Veining in the gold mineralised zones indicate a complex array of vein orientations. The mineralisation is hosted on the margins and within fractures of sericite and chlorite altered dark quartz veining, within strongly deformed wacke sediments (Figure 1).
Highlights
- First assays received for Phase 2 drilling at Paquin result in bonanza gold intercept:
- 7.5m @ 41.81 g/t Au from 182m (BO-26-63)
- This result is the best gold drill intersection for the Bousquet Project to date and adds confidence to the structurally-controlled mineralisation model at Paquin
- Assays still pending for the remainder of BO-26-63 and an additional 6 holes
- Drilling has now been completed at the Bousquet Project with 7 holes drilled for a total of 1,639m
- Bousquet Gold Project located on Cadillac Break in Quebec, Canada, a regional structure associated with world-class gold mines (>110 Moz Au1)
- Situated within 15km of multi-million ounce working gold mines (Agnico Eagle’s La Ronde – 15.8Moz Au2 and Iamgold’s Westwood – 2.4Moz Au3)

“We are excited to see this high-grade intercept at Paquin confirming the visual gold that was logged in the drill core. These first results from the second phase of drilling highlight the potential of the high-grade lodes, and are the best drill results for the Bousquet Project to date. We look forward to seeing the outstanding assays results for BO-26-63 and the other 6 holes of the program, due in the coming weeks.” Commented Sean Delaney,Olympio Metals Managing Director.
Olympio has the option to acquire an 80% interest in the Bousquet Project in Quebec from Bullion Gold Resources for total payment of C$1.25M (cash and shares) and an exploration investment of C$2M. Olympio has made payments of C$0.30M (cash and shares) to date and completed exploration spend of nearly C$1.0M. Bullion will retain a 20% undivided interest (net carried interest) in this project.
Competent Person’s Statement, Sampling, Drilling and Analysis Details
The information in this announcement that relates to exploration results is based on information compiled by Mr. Neal Leggo, a Competent Person who is a Member of the Australian Institute of Geoscientists and a consultant to Olympio Metals Limited. Mr. Leggo has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of mineralisation and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is undertaking to qualify as a Competent Person as defined in the 2012 Edition of the “Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves”. Mr Leggo consents to the inclusion in this announcement of the matters based on this information in the form and context in which it appears.
Diamond core samples (NQ) were collected in timber core trays, sequence checked, metre marked and oriented at the drill site. The drill core was logged at Explo-logik core shack in Val D’Or by Quebec qualified geologists. All drill core is NQ. All downhole surveying is done with an OMNIX42 (every 30m), rig alignment with a TN14 Gyro, diamond core was not orientated for this program. Alternatively, a downhole televiewer survey will be conducted on all holes. Proportion of core recovered for each 3-metre interval of core drilled is recorded in the drill database. All drill core was qualitatively logged by the Explo-logik staff geologist. Logging includes lithology, alteration, mineralisation, veining and photography. The main rock types observed in the logging were greywacke, siltstone and conglomerate. Sample are sent to either AGAT Laboratories in Thunder Bay or Laboratory Expert in Rouyn-Noranda. All samples from 2025 and 2026 drilling were analysed at AGAT Laboratories; However, samples from BO-26-63 drillhole have been analysed at Laboratoire Expert. Samples sent to AGAT were analysed for Au by 50g fire assay fusion (FA) with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) finish (202-551), and also 34 elements by 4-acid digest with ICP_OES finish (201-070). Samples with observed or suspected coarse gold as logged by the geologist were analysed by screen Fire assay (202-121). From the pulverised sample, a 1kg sub-sample was sieved to 106μm. The +106μm fraction was analysed to extinction by FA/ICP(OES) and the -106μm fraction by FA/ICP(OES).
AGAT protocols are considered by the Qualified Person to be consistent, in general, with industry standards.
Samples sent to Laboratory Expert were analysed for Au by 30gm lead fire assay (FA) with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) finish. Samples with values greater than 30g/t or have logged visible gold are re assayed by fire assay with gravimetric finish.

Bullion Gold Resources is a junior exploration company active mainly in Quebec, particularly in the Abitibi and James Bay mining regions. The Company holds a 100% interest in the Bousquet (Au), Cadillac-Extension (Langlade Prospect – VMS), and Bodo (Polymetallic) projects.
The Bousquet project is optioned to Australian company Olympio Metals (Oly), which may earn up to 80% of the gold project in exchange for $1.25M in cash and shares, plus $2M in exploration expenditures. Bullion would then retain a 20% undivided (net carried) interest.
The Langlade project (72 claims – 4,127 ha) is a drill-ready VMS project under development.
The Bodo project (761 claims – 410 km²) is an early-stage exploration project with anomalous and indicative occurrences of critical and strategic minerals (Au, Ag, Cu, Zn, Li, Pb, Co, Mn). Its main prospects — Rivon Lake, Canico, Licé, Tichégami, and Didi — offer polymetallic, VMS, and IOCG potential.
