Original News Release

Hi-View completes Borealis project acquisition

Mr. R. Nick Horsley reports HI-VIEW COMPLETES BOREALIS PROPERTY ACQUISITION Further to its news release dated Aug. 28, 2025, Hi-View Resources Inc. has completed the acquisition of the Borealis project in the Toodoggone district of north-central British Columbia. The company acquired the Borealis project from Coast Copper Corp. pursuant to the terms and conditions of an asset purchase agreement (APA) dated Aug. 27, 2025, entered into between the company and Coast Copper. R. Nick Horsley, chief executive officer of Hi-View, commented: "The acquisition of Borealis has expanded our land package by 9,106 hectares, nearly doubling our fully owned portfolio with no work commitments. When our team first identified the Placer Dome IP [induced polarization] target, we were astonished that such a promising site had never been drilled. In 1992, low-grade, bulk-tonnage porphyry targets were overlooked; yet, today, these deposits are highly valued for their consistent mining grades and predictable metallurgy. We have initiated an airborne survey across the entire new holdings and plan to apply for permits to conduct an IP survey, with the goal of advancing to a drill program to test the target." The Borealis project Cas At the Cas area, the 1992 Placer Dome program combined induced polarization (IP), ground magnetometer and VLF-EM (very-low-frequency/electromagnetic) surveys with soil and rock geochemistry. The work defined two strong IP chargeability highs (up to 73 milliseconds) with coincident low resistivity within zones of pyritic clay alteration along the margin of a monzonite stock. Ground magnetics showed elevated responses over the intrusion and adjacent alteration, suggesting possible extensions beneath cover and delineating subtle magnetic highs that track pyritic zones. Geochemistry returned sporadic copper and gold anomalies associated with limonitic quartz veins in the alteration footprint -- soils up to 138 parts per million copper and 970 parts per billion gold and rocks up to 2.3 per cent Cu and 695 ppb Au. Within this setting, Cas 3-9 comprises multistage quartz veins hosted by lapilli tuff, including a sample assaying 106 grams per tonne silver. Taken together, the data sets outline a possible sulphide-bearing alteration system at an intrusive margin; element-mobility analysis indicates gold-silver-copper anomalies are short transport and likely near source, whereas elevated molybdenum may reflect more mobile dispersion from a porphyry-style source. Bren Within the land package, Bren hosts silver-rich polymetallic veins and breccias localized in structurally prepared zones. Drilling reported 349.7 g/t Ag and 0.68 g/t Au over 0.09 metre (hole G-6), 140.2 g/t Ag and 0.68 g/t Au over 0.60 m (G-3), and 123.1 g/t Ag with 0.34 g/t Au over 0.60 m (G-7). Surface work recorded very high-grade silver intervals, from 11,135.5 g/t Ag over 0.45 m down to 801.3 g/t Ag over 1.35 m, and a grab sample assayed 0.695 g/t Au, 40 g/t Ag, 0.85 per cent zinc, 1.16 per cent lead and 2.3 per cent Cu. Firesteel Another area of the land package, Firesteel, occupies a limestone-volcanic contact where carbonate-reactive rocks focus fluids and heat. Mineralization is best described as a replacement/skarn setting with associated silver-bearing veins. Work reports chip and trench intervals of 11.5 per cent Zn, 0.50 per cent Cu and 54.0 g/t Ag over 4.8 m; 2.3 per cent Zn, 0.3 per cent Pb and 106.0 g/t Ag over 2.1 m (trench 57); and 0.80 per cent Zn, 1.2 per cent Cu and 177.8 g/t Ag over 0.9 m (trench 101). Additional work noted a historical resource estimate. Freibergite-bearing quartz veins returned up to 11,163 g/t Ag over 0.46 m, and selective samples returned 12 to 44 per cent Zn with 0.25 to 0.74 per cent Cu and 2.7 to 195 g/t Ag and a 1.0 m chip grading 10.5 per cent Zn. Agreement terms As consideration for the Borealis project and pursuant to the terms of the APA, the company: Paid Coast Copper $500,000 in cash; Issued 3.5 million common shares to Coast Copper; Granted Coast Copper a 3-per-cent NSR (net smelter return) royalty on the Borealis project, of which the company will have the right to repurchase 1 per cent for $2.5-million and an additional 1 per cent for $5-million. Additionally, the company granted Coast Copper the right to receive a cash bonus payment in the event of certain sale transactions following the completion of the acquisition. In connection with the acquisition, the company will issue 588,095 common shares to an arm's-length finder who introduced the company to Coast Copper. All consideration shares and the finder shares are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day following the date of issuance, in accordance with applicable securities laws. Additionally, 2.45 million of the consideration shares are subject to a contractual resale restriction, pursuant to which 350,000 consideration shares are released each month over a period commencing five months following closing of the acquisition and ending 11 months following closing of the acquisition.
