The playbook — gold · November 4, 2026
Scottie drills 6.0 g/t over 21.20 m inside its mine plan at Blueberry
Ten holes across several veins repeat high grades while most of a 61,578 m program still waits for the lab.
Scottie Resources reported drill results from its Blueberry Contact Zone in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle on November 4, 2026. The two headline holes stand out: 6.0 grams of gold per tonne over 21.20 metres — about a fifth of an ounce in every tonne, over a wide slab of rock — and 14.4 grams per tonne over 8.00 metres, including 3.75 metres running 24.1 grams per tonne. Both sit inside the mine plan laid out in the project’s existing economic study. A third hole at Blueberry 5 hit 9.8 grams per tonne over 9.00 metres, with one metre spiking to 62.8 grams per tonne. These are ten holes across several named vein systems — Lemoffe, Blueberry, Fifi, Road — not one lucky core.
Why it matters: the strongest intercepts are worth 127 and 115 gram-metres (grade multiplied by width, the quick yardstick for how much metal a hole carries). Because they land within the planned pit and mine shapes, they firm up continuity in rock the company already counts, rather than just stretching the map. A few holes reached past known limits. At Fifi 2, one hit sits roughly 35 metres outboard of the nearest earlier pierce point, and a separate intercept extends the zone about 115 metres down-dip, with downhole depths running between 353 and 403 metres. At Blueberry 5, one hole landed about 20 metres opposite an earlier hit. The release does not state a strike length for these step-outs. The project holds a 703,000-ounce resource grading 6.1 grams per tonne, and the stock gained 5.6% over three months while gold fell 2.6% and junior miners sat flat — a company-specific premium, though the late pullback took back much of the mid-period run to C$3.19.
What to watch: the company targets an updated resource estimate and a Tetra Tech Feasibility Study for the early first half of 2027. That timeline carries weight because most of the 2026 program — 61,578 metres across 227 holes — is still at the lab, so these ten holes are a selected subset. True width is not established hole by hole; the company applies a blanket 70% to 100% of core length, so a 21.20-metre core interval could be nearer 15 metres true. No cut-off grade is stated, grades are uncut, and the Qualified Person, Lyle Hansen, is non-independent. The resource remains entirely Inferred.
