The KE Report Banyan Gold - AurMac Drilling Update: Extending High-Grade Mineralization Within and Outside Of The 7.7Moz Resource
Dec 12, 2025
Tara Christie, President and CEO of Banyan Gold, brings her expertise in guiding exploration at the AurMac Project in Yukon. The discussion revolves around exciting high-grade gold discoveries, with confirmed +1.0 g/t zones and significant drill results expanding potential pit limits. Tara shares insights on the geological differences between the Powerline and Airstrip deposits, and the promising early-stage high-grade silver results. With over 140 drill holes pending and a path toward a PEA in 2026, the future looks bright for Banyan Gold.

Episode notes
Geology Confirms Targeted High-Grade Zones
- Banyan's geological model is validating the hypothesis that >1 g/t high-grade zones are present and mappable at Powerline and Airstrip.
- Drill core shows discrete sheeted veins and visible gold that connect high-grade zones and expand the deposit footprint.
Step-Out Holes Convert Waste To Mineralization
- Step-out drilling converted assumed pit waste into mineralization and extended potential pit limits by ~400 meters.
- Visible gold and sheeted veins in core indicated mineralization beyond prior pit boundaries.
Width Variability Tied To Host Lithology
- Widths vary by lithology: Airstrip yields wider high-grade intercepts while Powerline shows discrete narrower high-grade lenses.
- Distinct host rocks allow potential lithological separation of high-grade from waste, aiding mine planning and dilution control.
