The KE Report Banyan Gold - Drill Results: Continuing To Define The High Grade Areas At The Powerline & Airstrip Deposits
Jan 9, 2026
Tara Christie, President and CEO of Banyan Gold, shares insights on the latest drilling results from the AurMac Project in Yukon. She explains how eight new drill holes validate their geological model and reveal high-grade continuity. Tara highlights a significant 300 m step-out with promising mineralization and discusses strategic trade-offs between infill and gap drilling. She also touches on an extensive drilling program with many results pending, including targeted high-grade silver efforts, indicating exciting future prospects for resource expansion.

Episode notes
Model Predicts Consistent High-Grade Zones
- Banyan's new geological model is successfully predicting consistent high-grade zones at Powerline and Airstrip.
- That predictability supports targeting >1 g/t zones and underpins their 5 Moz plus-1g strategy for the PEA.
400m Gap Could Host Another High-Grade Zone
- The 400 m gap between Powerline and Airstrip likely hosts another east-west high-grade zone.
- Filling or testing that gap can convert waste to ore and materially expand resource continuity.
300m Step-Out Found Unexpected Mineralization
- A 300-meter step-out at the southwest of Powerline intercepted mineralization where a pit boundary once suggested it faded.
- The hole included higher-grade intervals (e.g., 1.4 m of 8.8 g/t) showing expansion potential beyond prior limits.
