Interview with Maura Kolb, President of Dryden Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/dryden-gold-tsxvdry-drilling-high-grade-gold-over-30-gt-in-the-heart-of-historic-gold-camp-6252Recording date: 30th January 2025Dryden Gold is ramping up exploration at its Gold Rock project in Northwestern Ontario, backed by a fully-funded $5.8 million budget for 2025. The company recently secured a strategic $3.38 million investment from Centerra Gold, providing strong validation of its systematic exploration approach and district-scale potential.Recent drilling at the company's Elora zone has yielded promising results, including intersections of 6 g/t Au over 12 meters. Unlike typical vein-hosted deposits in the region, mineralization at Elora occurs within shear zones, potentially indicating greater continuity and scale. The company's geological team has identified striking similarities between the Gold Rock camp and the prolific Red Lake district, particularly in structural controls and mineralization styles.Surface sampling across regional targets has produced impressive results, with values up to 34 g/t Au at the Hyndman target and historical samples reaching 617 g/t Au at Sherridon. The company has systematically prioritized these targets based on grade potential, size potential, and exploration feasibility.President Maura Kolb emphasizes the company's methodical approach to exploration: "Grade is always King, so that's forefront and foremost something we rate everything on." This disciplined strategy, modeled after major mining companies, has been instrumental in attracting strategic investment.Drilling is scheduled to resume February 10th, focusing on expanding the Elora zone both at depth and along strike. Current drilling reaches approximately 250 meters depth, with plans to test deeper extensions. Step-out drilling will target the northeast extension towards a historical high-grade mine that averaged 14 g/t Au, located approximately one kilometer along trend.The company has allocated 36% of its 2025 budget to test high-priority regional targets, providing multiple opportunities for discovery. This balanced approach between advancing the known Elora zone and testing regional targets aligns with Centerra Gold's investment mandate to pursue both brownfield and regional exploration opportunities.In a challenging market for junior explorers, Dryden Gold stands out with its strong treasury, systematic exploration approach, and strategic backing. The company's focus on high-grade gold in a premier jurisdiction, combined with its experienced management team and methodical approach to target generation, positions it well for potential discovery success in 2025.View Dryden Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/dryden-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
