Thistle Resources Inc. CEO Patrick Cruikshank joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the start of the company's 2026 antimony trenching program at its flagship Brunswick Antimony Project in New Brunswick's renowned Bathurst Mining Camp.
The trenching campaign is focused on exposing the granite-sediment contact, the geological boundary that hosts the project's antimony mineralization. Excavation has been completed at the initial trench by Doucet Excavation, with work targeting both the main mineralized zone and the key structural contact to better define the extent of the mineralized system.
Cruickshank said 10 samples have already been collected from Trench Area #1, representing several styles of antimony mineralization, including disseminated mineralization, massive blebs, and quartz vein-hosted material. Previous work also identified extensive silicification and quartz veining associated with the mineralized zones.
Once trench mapping and channel sampling are complete, the structural information will help determine the orientation of the mineralized contact and guide the placement of future drill holes, improving the efficiency of the upcoming exploration program.
While the Brunswick Project shares geological similarities with the nearby Lake George antimony deposit, management believes it stands apart because of its precious metals potential. Previous certified assays returned values of up to 2.32 g/t gold and 1,300 g/t silver, highlighting the project's multi-metal opportunity alongside antimony.
