Northisle Copper and Gold Inc. has commenced its 2025 exploration program at the North Island Project. The exploration program will consist of at least 4.3 miles (7,000 meters) of drilling focused on the West Goodspeed and Northwest Expo targets, plus an extensive field program to leverage the company’s exploration data to identify additional targets along its North Island copper-gold porphyry belt.

“In 2025, our exploration team will continue advancing our understanding of this district-scale project,” said Dr. Pablo Mejia Herrera, vice president of exploration for Northisle. “Integration and modeling of more than 60 years of property-wide exploration data is underway to apply the successful Northwest Corridor targeting approach across our (nearly) 22 mile (35-kilometer) district.”
