Wesdome Intersects 3.1 g/t Gold over 106.5 Metres at Shawkey 10, Significantly Expanding the Mineralized System
Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – September 16, 2026) – Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. (TSX: WDO) (OTCQX: WDOFF) (“Wesdome” or the “Company“) today provides an update on exploration drilling activities completed at its wholly-owned Kiena mine (“Kiena“) near Val-d’Or, Quebec (Figure 1).
HIGHLIGHTS
Shawkey 10 (Figures 2-5, Table 1)1
Interpreted thickness of diorite host rock more than doubles from approximately 80 metres to over 200 metres with mineralization throughout
- SH-26-001: 3.1 g/t Au uncapped over 106.5 m core length, (2.6 g/t Au capped, 106.5 m core length) including,
- 20.4 g/t Au uncapped over 10.8 m core length, (15.4 g/t Au capped, 10.8 m core length)
- 5.6 g/t Au uncapped over 6.2 m core length, (5.6 g/t Au capped over 6.2 m core length)
- 3.1 g/t Au uncapped over 9.2 m core length, (3.1 g/t Au capped over 9.2 m core length)
- SH-26-001: 1.6 g/t Au uncapped over 23.4 m core length, (1.6 g/t Au capped over 23.4 m core length)
- SH-26-001 is a follow-up to S-21-831 (seenews release dated May 23, 2023), which intersected 2.3 g/t Au over 72.0 m, and approximately doubles the grade thickness of that previous intersection, materially increasing the target volume at Shawkey 10.
- The expanded host, together with previous Shawkey drilling and geological similarities observed at Shawkey Mine and the Dubuisson Zone, supports the potential for a broader Kiena East mineralized corridor.
1Assays capped at 90.0 g/t for Shawkey 10 (assays capped).

Anthea Bath, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented,
“Today’s results provide further evidence of the scale and breadth of the Kiena system and a meaningful step forward in our understanding of what the Kiena East corridor – currently comprising Shawkey 10, Shawkey Mine, 134 and Dubuisson zones – could become.
.
“The emerging picture at Kiena East, which includes repeated broad mineralization, multiple higher-grade structures, and a large prospective host, bears the hallmarks of a system with real scale potential.
.
“Our next phase of drilling is designed to improve our understanding of whether these historically separate mineralized areas form part of a broader connected system. If demonstrated, the implications for Kiena East’s long-term resource potential could be significant.
.
“Importantly, Kiena East represents a potential growth horizon that is distinct from the principal mining and development areas within the broader Kiena property. Situated within our existing operating platform, and while still at an early stage, it has the potential to broaden the mine’s production base and add meaningful long-term optionality.
.
“The results are significant because they demonstrate that broad mineralization is not confined to the original intersection reported in 2021.
.
“Together with results at Dubuisson and historic information from the Shawkey Mine, they strengthen our view that Kiena East may represent a far larger mineralized system than previously understood.
.
“Establishing the geometry and continuity among these areas is now the central objective of our drilling program.”
