Outlook / Guidance
U.S. GoldMining Inc. believes its current cash on hand and access to capital markets will be sufficient to meet capital requirements for 2026. The company intends to complete the remaining balance of its 10,000 m drilling program at the Whistler Project at the start of the 2026 summer field season. Construction of the West Susitna Access Road (WSAR) is expected to commence in 2026 or 2027 and be completed by 2030, which will improve site accessibility and transportation for the Whistler Project.
