Isoneva ProjectLocated in Finland'sWestern Gold Belt

Isoneva Project

The Isoneva Project is a drill-ready gold exploration property located in Finland’s underexplored Western Finland Gold Belt. The project is anchored by high-grade gold boulder trains and supported by compelling geophysical and geochemical data.

Isoneva Overview

  • 11 km² (1,100 ha) early-stage gold exploration property within the Western Finland Gold Belt (Middle Ostrobothnia)

 

  • Over 200 gold-bearing boulders sampled >1 g/t Au, averaging ~14 g/t Au; highest grade sample reported at 462 g/t Au1

 

  • Multiple boulder trains interpreted to be locally sourced from mineralized shear zones
  • Historical drill results include up to:
    • 17.9 m of 4.3 g/t Au (ISON004)2
    • 0.41m of 54 g/t Au (ISON014)2

 

  • Area is underexplored due to glacial till cover; limited bedrock exposure

Western Finland Gold Belt

  • Emerging gold district with limited historic gold exploration

  • Active and past mining operations support development potential
  • Geological belt is similar in age and structure to other Proterozoic-age greenstone-hosted gold regions*
  •  
  • Exploration activity increasing, with both junior and majors active in the region

Exploration History & Geological Setting

  • Sporadic exploration on the property since the mid 1980s (Outokumpu)

  • Boulder tracing, Base-of-Till (BOT) sampling, and geophysics critical due to low outcrop (<1%)

  • Modern exploration tools (BOT, IP, structural mapping) effective to track boulder train sources
  • Boulder trains align with structural, geochemical, and geophysical anomalies supporting a nearby bedrock source

  • 6.7 km contact zone between intrusive diorite & volcanic sequences

  • Hosted along on a second-order structure off a major crustal suture (Reisjärvi shear zone)

High-Priority Target Areas

  • Drill-ready target areas have been identified through geophysics, till and boulder anomalies, and historic drilling:

    • Uunikangas Structurally hosted gold-bearing shear zones
    • Tiaskuru Dilational structure with high-grade veins
    • Korpisalo Strong sulphidic till train & IP anomaly
    • Ahveroinen Historic high-grade boulder samples
    • Tielampi Untested gold-bearing boulders

  • Two primary target styles:

  • High-grade veining in dilation zones along lithological contacts (e.g., Tiaskuru)

  • Sulphide-rich structural corridors (e.g., Korpisalo)

  • Historical exploration was mainly focused down-ice of the strongest till and boulder anomalism

  • Prospective areas remain unexplored and undrilled; warrant further investigation

Uunikangas - High-Priority Target

  • Multiple drill intercepts confirm structurally controlled gold-bearing shear zones

 

  • Significant drill intercepts:
    • 17.9 m of 4.3 g/t Au and 12.1 g/t Ag from 147.2 m, including 2.1 m of 24.8 g/t Au and 77.6 g/t Ag from 158.5 m (ISON004)2
    • 3.3 m @ 2.4 g/t Au and 1.1 g/t Ag from 61.8 m (ISON020)2
    • 4.1 m @ 3.2 g/t Au and 21.8 g/t Ag from 55.1 m (BelKan001)3

 

  • Boulder samples up to:
    • 462 g/t Au (historic boulder 11)1
    • 180.5 g/t Au (sample EK194)1

 

  • Anomalous Base-of-Till (BOT) bedrock and till sample mineralization present

 

  • Western tonalite contact remains untested – high-priority for follow-up drilling

 

  • Strong gold-in-till anomaly at the northern tip of the intrusion remains a key focus

Tiaskuru - High-Priority Target

  • Interpreted to host a dilational structural zone with potential for high-grade veins

 

  • Significant drill intercepts (ISON014)2
    • 0.41 m of 54 g/t Au and 32.6 g/t Ag from 159.5 m
    • 0.44 m of 18.1 g/t Au and 6.7 g/t Ag from 165.6 m

 

  • Boulder samples up to:
    • 106 g/t Au (historic boulder 6)1
    • 70.7 g/t Au (historic boulder 4)1

 

  • Hosted in a structurally complex area with high-grade quartz-carbonate-aspy veins

 

  • Represents a new discovery in the northern part of the property

 

  • Mineralization open in all directions; limited historical drilling conducted

Korpisalo - High-Priority Target

  • Defined by a broad gold and copper anomalies with a distinct down-ice sulphidic signature, suggesting the presence of sulphide-rich mineralization in bedrock

  • Coincident with a high-chargeability IP geophysical anomalies, interpreted to reflect disseminated sulphides or veining at depth

  • Located along a structurally complex corridor

  • Target area remains undrilled

  • Represents a high-priority, under-explored target with strong discovery potential

Qualified Person and NI 43-101 Disclosure

Dr. Toby Strauss (CGeol.; EurGeol.), Director of Gemdale Gold Inc, is the Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. Dr Strauss has verified the technical data supporting this website. For the Exploration Information relating to the drillholes, verification has included: checking a proportion of the reported assays against the issued laboratory certificates; reviewing the QA/QC results of the assay workorders; reviewing drill logs and visually verifying sample depths against drill core photographs for drillcore for the ISONxxx drillholes. Boulder samples have been compiled from two sources: 1) Gemdale File = Boulder samples collected by Gemdale Gold Inc or previous operators that were sent for assay, and laboratory reports are available; and 2) Online, freely accessible data file provided the Geological Survey of Finland relating to Layman Samples that have been submitted for assay. Verification for the Gemdale boulder files includes checking a proportion of the reported assays in the Company database against the issued laboratory assay certificates. No verification has been conducted on the Layman Sample database. Dr Strauss is responsible for the accuracy of and has approved the technical information contained on this website.

QA/QC and Core Sampling Protocols

Gemdale Gold Inc. (“Gemdale”) is responsible for QA/QC in respect of its drill core. Nordique Resources Inc. has been advised of the following procedures and protocols utilized by Gemdale in respect of the same. For the ISONxxx drillholes, drill core is logged and sampled in a secure core storage facility located in Ylivieska, Finland. Core samples from the program are cut in half, using a diamond cutting saw, and are sent to ALS Global, Outokumpu, an international accredited mineral analysis laboratory, for sample prep and analysis. All samples are analyzed for gold using Fire Assay-AA techniques (method Au-AA23). Samples returning over 10.0 g/t gold are analyzed utilizing Fire Assay-Gravimetric methods (gold-GRA21). As part of the Company’s quality control/quality assurance program (QA/QC), certified gold reference standards are routinely inserted into the sample stream every 20th sample (5%). A blank sample is also inserted into the sample stream with every batch sent to the laboratory. No QAQC issues were noted with the results reported herein. Similar protocols were followed for the BELKANxxx holes, except that gold was assayed using method Au-AA25 which has a slightly different range of detection limits to Au-AA23. No QAQC issues were noted with the results reported herein.

True widths are estimated as 65-85% of downhole intersect length.
