Bold Ventures Closes Acquisition of 6 Key Claims Contiguous to Its Joutel Property, Quebec and Completes IP Survey

Bold Ventures Consolidates Joutel Land Package with Related-Party Acquisition and Completes IP Survey; OTCQB Listing Broadens US Access

Executive Summary
  • Bold Ventures Inc. closed the acquisition of 6 contiguous mining claims to its Joutel Property in Quebec for consideration of 750,000 common shares issued to Emerald Geological Services (EGS), a related party controlled by President & COO Bruce MacLachlan and VP Exploration Coleman Robertson.
  • The transaction is exempt from MI 61-101 valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements as the consideration does not exceed 25% of market capitalization.
  • The company completed a Spring 2026 Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey across the newly acquired claims, targeting historical VTEM anomalies associated with nickel, gold, and silver.
  • Final IP interpretations and 3D models are pending. The Joutel claim group now comprises 58 total claims covering 3,217 hectares.
Material Impact
  • The June 1, 2026 release is a direct follow-up to the March 1, 2026 announcement regarding the signing of the vending agreement for the Joutel claims.
  • Closing the acquisition and completing the planned IP survey represents expected, incremental progress in land assembly and early-stage exploration.
  • The news does not introduce new drill results, major financing, or material changes to the company's exploration timeline.
  • The OTCQB listing (announced May 7, 2026) broadens investor access but has not yet generated significant volume or price appreciation, remaining a routine visibility milestone.
  • Overall, the news is positive but fully priced in and expected, aligning with the company's stated exploration roadmap.
