Executive Summary

  • The program targets a priority gold-bearing zone in the east-central region, planning up to five trenches with maximum lengths of 150 meters each.
  • Trench locations are strategically guided by historical geochemical anomalies (2002-2005 Rubicon Mineral Corp. samples reporting up to 0.431 g/t Au), 2003 airborne geophysical surveys, and geological contacts between the Stanley Waters and Lawrence Harbour formations.
  • This follows the completion of Phase I trenching on June 12, 2026, which excavated three trenches (60-105m) to test multielement soil geochemical anomalies. Rock samples from Phase I are currently pending analysis.
  • The Qualified Person, David Martin, P.Geo., has reviewed and approved the technical information per NI 43-101.
Material Impact
  • The news represents a standard, expected progression in the company's 2026 exploration program at its flagship Golden Promise property.

  • There are no new assay results, financial disclosures, or changes to the inferred resource estimate provided in this release.
  • The impact on the stock price is expected to be neutral, as it reflects planned exploration activities without immediate financial or material discovery catalysts.
