Dundee Corporation Announces Results of Infill Drilling at Westhaven's Shovelnose Gold and Silver Project, Southern British Columbia
Dundee Drilling Confirms JV Strategy as Portfolio Monetization Funds Growth

Executive Summary
- Dundee Corporation announced high-grade assay results from infill drilling at Westhaven's Shovelnose Gold and Silver Project in British Columbia on May 26, 2026.
- Key intercepts include 33.0m @ 14.0 g/t Au and 78 g/t Ag (SNR26-73) and 11.77m @ 15.63 g/t Au and 104 g/t Ag (SNR26-76).
- Drilling progress is at 33% completion for the South Zone mineral resource infill program, with 11,514m completed across 40 holes.
- The company remains committed to a strategic earn-in agreement with Westhaven Gold Corp., funding up to CDN$85 million to potentially acquire a 60% interest in four properties.
- A Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) for the South Zone deposit is targeted for completion in H2 2027, supported by an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE).
Material Impact
- The news represents execution confirmation of the strategic earn-in agreement closed in February 2026 rather than a fundamental shift in valuation thesis.
- High-grade intercepts validate the geological model established during Westhaven's prior PEA and the initial drilling program announced in early 2026.
- Market expectations were already priced in following the December 2025 agreement announcement and January 2026 royalty monetization which funded the JV commitment.
- The results are incremental to previous exploration updates (May 7, 2026) and do not introduce new discovery risks or opportunities outside the known South Zone deposit.
- Financial impact is neutral as capital expenditures are already budgeted within the committed $30 million first-phase funding.
