Harvest Gold Kicks Off Drilling at Mosseau, Launches Urban-Barry Till Program, and Completes Labelle Mag Survey
thenewswire.com
Vancouver, British Columbia / August 14, 2025 - TheNewswire - Harvest Gold Corporation (TSXV: HVG) (“Harvest Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to provide an update on exploration activities across its 100%-owned Quebec properties, all located in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt within the Urban-Barry area. The Company has mobilized a diamond drill to commence drilling at its Mosseau property, initiated a property-wide till sampling program at its Urban-Barry project, and completed a high-resolution airborne magnetic survey over the LaBelle property and recently acquired claims southeast of Mosseau.
Rick Mark, President and CEO of Harvest Gold states: “We are all very excited to be advancing exploration on all three of our Urban-Barry area properties, simultaneously. This includes our much-anticipated 5000 meter diamond drilling program at Mosseau and an extensive first time geochemistry examination at the large Urban-Barry property. And, we have now completed a first time look at another sizable property, Labelle, through an airborne geophysics program that is continuous with the very revealing mag survey done last year on Mosseau.”
Diamond Drilling at Mosseau
The diamond drill is expected to be mobilized this week to the Mosseau property. Phase I of the planned 5,000-metre diamond drilling program at Mosseau follows an extensive compilation of regional data, a high-resolution magnetic survey, and encouraging results from the soil sampling program and reconnaissance mapping and prospecting programs. Drilling will focus on high-priority targets in the northern portion of the property, which hosts numerous historical gold showings, as well as in the Central area where recent geophysical and geochemical surveys have identified several quality targets for gold mineralization (Figures 2 and 3).
Till Sampling at Urban-Barry
Harvest Gold has also commenced fieldwork at its 19 km-long Urban-Barry property, which averages 4 km in width. Limited prospecting and mapping were conducted last summer; however, due to some reasonably extensive overburden, the Company determined that a till sampling survey would be the most effective tool to evaluate the property’s gold potential. The survey is being conducted by IOS Services Géoscientifiques and consists of NW-SE oriented sampling lines spaced 1,000–1,500 metres apart, perpendicular to the dominant ice-flow direction, with individual samples collected every 250–300 metres. A total of 145 samples are planned (Figure 4).
Magnetic Survey at LaBelle
This week, the Company completed a high-resolution airborne magnetic survey over the LaBelle property and newly staked claims, at a 50-metre line spacing totaling 1,368 line-kilometres (Figure 5). Conducted by Novatem Airborne Geophysics, the survey covers an area with minimal historical exploration, but is interpreted from government regional magnetic data to be the southeast extension of the mineralized corridor hosting known mineralization at Mosseau.
These programs are designed to expand the Company’s exploration pipeline and support future drill targeting across its broad Quebec project portfolio.
