Conquest begins 2026 exploration at Valimaki

Executive Summary

• Conquest Resources Ltd. has initiated its 2026 exploration program at the Valimaki gold project in southwestern Finland.
• The program aims to refine exploration targets and advance the project toward drill testing through a series of systematic field activities.
• Key activities include an 86 sq km UAV magnetic survey, geological mapping, prospecting, and glacial till sampling scheduled for March through May 2026.

Key Details

• Program Scope: The 2026 exploration program is designed to systematically advance the Valimaki gold project through high-resolution geophysics, geological mapping, prospecting, and glacial till sampling.
• UAV Magnetic Survey:
  • Area: Approximately 86 square kilometres.
  • Objective: Improve understanding of structures and lithological contacts.
  • Schedule: Mid- to late March 2026.
• Geological Mapping:
  • Target: A 15-kilometre trend defined by an extensive train of gold-rich boulders.
  • Historic Context: The boulder train contains >150 boulders with assays >1 g/t Au, with highs up to 60 g/t Au.
  • Focus: Defining lithological contacts, structural controls, and alteration associated with gold mineralization.
  • Additional Work: Review of drill core from the Finnish national drill core archive.
  • Schedule: April and May 2026.
• Prospecting and Rock Sampling:
  • Conducted across prioritized target areas based on historic high-grade Au boulder samples, glacial till geochemistry anomalies, and areas identified during geological mapping.
• Glacial Till Sampling:
  • Regional campaign with tighter sample spacing across areas associated with historic gold-rich boulder occurrences, previous drilling, and till anomalies.
  • Schedule: April and May 2026.
• Qualified Person: Joerg Kleinboeck, PGeo, has reviewed and approved the technical content under National Instrument 43-101.
