Lodestar Metals Provides Corporate Update

Lodestar completes maiden gold drilling at its project, with assay results pending and an OTCQB listing in view.

Executive Summary
  • Lodestar Metals Corp. completed its maiden reverse-circulation drill program at the Gold Run Project in Nevada, consisting of 18 holes totaling 2,820 metres.
  • Assay results are currently under analysis and will be released once processed and reviewed.
  • Common shares have been approved for trading on the OTCQB Market, effective June 8, 2026, to broaden U.S. investor access.
  • Director Randene Seeman is stepping down from the board of directors.
  • Technical information was reviewed and approved by Qualified Person Leo Horn, NI 43-101.
Material Impact
  • The drilling completion aligns with the previously announced April/May 2026 timeline, representing expected operational progress rather than a surprise.
  • The OTCQB listing is a known capital markets initiative aimed at improving liquidity and U.S. investor access; it is incremental and does not immediately alter the company's exploration trajectory.
  • No assay results are included, meaning there is no immediate geological catalyst to drive valuation.
  • The director departure is a standard corporate governance update with no immediate financial or operational impact disclosed.
  • Overall, the news is a routine follow-up to the April drilling commencement and February financing, confirming execution without altering the fundamental risk/reward profile.
