08:38 AM EST, 11/25/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Q-Gold Resources ( QGLDF ) said Tuesday it has signed an agreement with engineering firm Kappes, Cassiday & Associates to begin a preliminary economic assessment for the Quartz Mountain gold project in Oregon.

Q-Gold expects to release the results in the coming months, adding that the study will serve as a foundation for future technical studies and permitting activities.

"Today's engagement of Kappes Cassiday, combined with our recently completed NI 43-101 technical report, positions Q-Gold to unlock significant shareholder value from this strategically located asset in a proven historic mining district of Oregon," Q-Gold President and Chief Executive Officer Peter Tagliamonte said.

Q-Gold said it acquired Quartz Mountain from Alamos Gold ( AGI ) in the third quarter.
