Great Pacific Gold Corp. is providing an update on its exploration activities at the Kesar Project, which is contiguous to and northwest of K92 Mining's Kainantu Mine in Papua New Guinea. Previously the Company announced that it had completed a drill program (5 holes for a total of 2,112 meters) at the Anteruno target at Kesar and had relocated the diamond drill rig to the high priority targets at the East Vein Zone, initially at Hampore.
The Company also reported that it had commenced a Mobile Magnetotelluric (MobileMT) geophysical survey across the broader project area. Hampore drilling has intercepted hydrothermal breccia with quartz-carbonate vein and semi-massive pyrite, visually similar to K92 Mining deposits such as Kora and Judd. Assay results are pending.
MobileMT data, recent mapping, high-grade rock chip results, and evidence of artisanal mining have all contributed to the design of a 1,200-metre drill program at Fufunambi. Kesar MobileMT Geophysics Survey. With the successful completion of the MobileMT survey, the Company is now focused on unlocking further value from the dataset through advanced interpretation and integration with existing geological information.
The Company has engaged Expert Geophysics (EGL) to deliver a suite of interpretive products designed to refine drill targeting and improve structural understanding across the Kesar project area, where the geophysical signature strongly resembles that of K92 Mining. Interpretation work is currently in progress, with outcomes from this phase expected to inform drill program planning and be shared with the market once finalized. The apparent conductivity trends from the Kesar MobileMT survey are shown in Figure 2, alongside publicly available data from the nearby K92 Mine for regional comparison.
The Anteruno Prospect, part of the Kesar Project located northwest of the producing K92 Mine within the mineralized Markham Transfer corridor, has recently completed its initial drilling program. Five drill holes totaling 2,112.40 meters were completed, targeting mineralization hosted predominantly within granodiorite intrusions of the Akuna Intrusive Suite. Anteruno Area Drill Program Nov.

The Company is focused on developing gold mineralization and structural intercepts exhibit gold mineralization between 0.5 to >10 g/t Au, highlighting potential for polymetallic, intrusion-related style mineralization.
The five drill holes at the Hampore Prospect targeted surface mineralization with exceptionally high-grade gold assays in rock chip samples (up to 110.0 g/t Au). Final assay results are pending for all Hampore holes. The Company is focused on develop gold assays in rock chip sample and structural intercepts in rock chip samples.
The company is focused on developing gold assays in the field and structural intercepts in the field.
