Northern Superior Resources (TSXV:SUP) - High-Grade Gold Found Below Planned Open Pit

Interview with Simon Marcotte, President & CEO of Northern Superior Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/northern-superior-resources-tsxvsup-consolidating-12moz-resource-base-7148Recording date: 7th June 2025Northern Superior Resources (TSXV: SUP) has reported exceptional drilling results at its flagship Philibert project in Quebec's Chibougamau Gold Camp, delivering what CEO Simon Marcotte describes as "probably the best drilling results we've seen" at the property. The discovery of high-grade underground mineralization directly beneath the existing open-pit resource fundamentally transforms the project's development profile and economic potential.The latest drilling campaign intersected remarkable grades including 21.6 metres at 4.82 g/t Au with 7.0 metres at 11.86 g/t Au, and 22.2 metres at 2.09 g/t Au including 10.0 metres at 3.54 g/t Au. These results extend a new high-grade discovery zone over 200 metres of strike length with more than 150 metres of vertical extent.The strategic significance lies in the underground mineralization's position beneath the planned open pit, enabling a phased development approach that generates cash flow during the transition to underground operations. "If it's under an open pit, then you mine the open pit first and then you access the high-grade with a ramp," Marcotte explained. "So in other words, you're making money while accessing the high-grade at depth."This discovery strengthens Northern Superior's broader consolidation strategy in the Chibougamau Gold Camp, where the company and IAMGOLD now control 12.4 million ounces of defined resources. The camp's simple metallurgy, with 93-95% recovery rates, supports optimization opportunities across multiple deposits through a hub-and-spoke processing strategy.With strong gold prices creating favorable market conditions and Northern Superior maintaining an active exploration pipeline across its 62,000-hectare land package, the company appears well-positioned to capitalize on what Marcotte believes will be "the next big camp to take off globally."View Northern Superior Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/northern-superior-resources-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
