TORONTO, June 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Inventus Mining Corp. (TSXV: IVS) (“Inventus” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional high-grade assay results from grade-control drilling at Trench 1, as well as the commencement of bulk sample extraction at the 007 North site on its 100%-owned Pardo Gold Project, located 65 km northeast of Sudbury, Ontario.
Highlights
- Initial assay results from 16 shallow grade-control drill holes (within 8 metres of surface) at the Trench 1 site returned an average grade and thickness of 4.54 gpt gold over 1.90 metres.
- Notable drill intercepts include:
- 12.51 gpt gold over 1.79 metres
- 11.45 gpt gold over 1.72 metres
- 8.76 gpt gold over 1.92 metres
- 7.93 gpt gold over 1.97 metres
- 5.20 gpt gold over 2.23 metres
- Bulk Sample extraction has officially commenced at the 007 North site targeting approximately 5,000 tonnes.
Initial assay results for the first 16 of 35 holes from the second planned bulk sample site (Trench 1) returned an average grade and thickness of 4.54 gpt gold over 1.90 metres (see Figure 1 and Table 1). The remaining 19 holes are pending and will be released once available.
Bulk sample extraction is officially underway at the 007 North site targeting approximately 5,000 tonnes of flat-lying gold mineralization within 6 metres of surface (Figure 2). This area was previously reported to have an average grade and thickness of 3.84 gpt gold over 1.82 metres (see June 4, 2025).
Wesley Whymark, President and Head of Exploration comments: “We are excited to see more high-grade intersections in our grade-control drilling and get the bulk sample extraction underway at 007 North. This program is all about showing the economic potential of surface mining at Pardo, and so far, it’s looking very promising.”

The Qualified Person responsible for the technical content of this news release is Inventus’ President and Head of Exploration, Wesley Whymark, P.Geo., who has reviewed and approved the technical disclosure in this news release on behalf of the Company.
Technical Information
Drill core samples collected by Inventus and described in this news release were subject to a variety of QA/QC protocols. PQ Size drill core was placed in core boxes by the contracted drill crew and then transported by Inventus personnel to a secure processing facility in Sudbury, Ontario. The core was then reviewed with core metreage blocks checked to verify core integrity, recovery and geologically logged with samples marked. Whole core samples were then photographed and inserted into a clean plastic bag with a sample tag. Certified reference materials were inserted into the sample stream at a rate of no less than 10%. Samples were then transported in secure sealed bags with security tags for preparation by Agat Labs in Thunder Bay, Ontario. All samples reported were crushed in their entirety to 80% passing 2 mm. A subsample comprising 2 kg was riffle split and pulverized to 80% 75 microns (-200 mesh) and one 300- to 500-g subsample was riffle split into a jar. The Jar was then shipped to Paragon Geochemical in Nevada, USA for gold analysis by PhotonAssay. Both Agat Labs and Paragon Geochemical are ISO 17025:2017 accredited geochemical testing laboratories.
