Thistle Resources Inc. is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on the discovery and advancement of precious metals and critical mineral projects in Atlantic Canada. Since its incorporation in 2017, Thistle has engaged in exploration within the Bathurst Mining Camp in New Brunswick and the Cape Breton Highlands Region of Nova Scotia, areas recognized for their established mineral exploration activity.
Thistle Resources (TSX-V:TRCG, OTC:TRCGF) has started a 3,000-metre drill program at its Middle River Gold Project, with the drill rig now set up on its first pad.
The Phase 3 program will continue to test the MRG Upper Zone, building on two previous drill programs that returned strong gold intersections.
The zone is the first target area along a seven-kilometre mineralized fold system identified through Abitibi Geophysics' 3D Orion Vision Technology.
Patrick Cruickshank, Thistle’s CEO, said the company is looking to grow the deposit's footprint toward its two million ounce goal.
Thistle Resources (TSX-V:TRCG, OTC:TRCGF) returned assays as high as 14.4% antimony and 7.59 ounces of silver per tonne from trench sampling at its Brunswick Antimony Project in New Brunswick's Bathurst Mining Camp, the company said.
The results cover 11 samples collected during the company's 2026 trenching program at the never-drilled project, which sits adjacent to the Brunswick No. 12 deposit on its eastern claim boundary.
Thistle Resources (TSX-V:TRCG, OTC:TRCGF) CEO Patrick Cruickshank talked with Proactive about the launch of the company's trenching program at its Brunswick Project in New Brunswick, where exploration is focused on antimony alongside high-grade silver and gold mineralization.
