Fulcrum Metals plc has defined a “large-scale” gold target within a “wider gold corridor’ from soil sampling at its Big Bear exploration project in Ontario, Canada.

Results include up to 1.46 grammes per tonne gold and also further advanced “multiple permitted, drill-ready targets”.
The company said that the regional “stand-out” gold target was some 2km by 2km and lay within a 3km gold corridor, which remained open along strike.
A total of 51 highly anomalous samples returned over 30 parts per billion gold, while rock samples from the gold corridor were up to 139g/t gold.
Fulcrum already has 30 permitted drill pads.
Chief executive officer Ryan Mee added: “Soil sampling continues to be an effective tool for targeting mineralisation in areas of limited bedrock exposure, enhancing drill targeting and supporting expansion of the known gold footprint.
“Our focus is now on evaluating partnership opportunities for Big Bear, consistent with our strategy at the Tully gold project and across our uranium portfolio.”
Completed towards the end of 2025, the soil sampling programme involved collecting 639 samples over the Schreiber-Pyramid, Twomey and Schreiber Johnston Gap areas.
