Edmonton, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - July 2, 2025) - Golden Rapture Mining Corporation (CSE: GLDR) is pleased to announce high-grade gold results from its recent surface sampling program at its 10,000-acre Phillips Township Property, Rainy River District, NW Ontario.
This sampling program was designed to test certain surface areas where strong anomalies were recently identified in our low-altitude, high-resolution drone magnetic survey. The survey results identified new high-priority targets, confirming that the survey area is dominated by strong linear anomalies throughout the project area, with the strongest occurring in the northeast corner (Young's Bay area), where intense deformation and folding are present.
Richard Rivet said:
"To our surprise, most of the samples recently taken in the northeast corner of our property, called the Young's Bay area, have also revealed our best high-grade gold results to date."
Highlights of the sampling program included:

"We are also waiting for sample results from our newly acquired highly prospective Bully Boy Mine patented mineral claims located directly adjacent to our Phillips Township property, NW, Ontario. Results to be announced when received."
History of the Bully Boy Mine
The historical records of the Bully Boy Mine are limited; however, archival Ontario Ministry of Mines files indicate that gold was first discovered in 1885 and that it was mined intermittently from 1898 to 1906.
In 1900, the mining workforce consisted of nine individuals, including six miners.
In 1904, the Arizona Camp Bay Gold Mining Company assumed ownership of the property. Equipment formerly used by the neighboring Boulder Mining Company-including a hoist, compressors, boilers, and other mining machinery-was transferred to the Bully Boy site, and two shafts were developed on the property, reaching depths of 56 and 165 feet.
In 1905, New accommodations were constructed to house approximately 30 workers. A ten-stamp mill, located two miles from the mine, processed up to 18 tons of ore per day.
By 1906, the main shaft was deepened by 60 feet, and lateral drifting was initiated at the 200-foot level, and a new compressor plant was also installed. By the end of the year, the shaft had reached 216 feet, with two 100-foot drifts extending north and south.
The ore extracted from the mine was estimated to contain gold values between $12 to $2,000 per ton, indicating very high gold grades, considering that gold was priced at $20/ounce in 1906. The last reported info about the property was that a new mill was added to supplement the existing ten-stamp mill, but no additional mining activity or production numbers can be found for the last 119 years.
