Origen outlines new target at Wishbone

Executive Summary

• Origen Resources Inc. released results from an induced polarization (IP) geophysical survey conducted at its 100%-owned Wishbone gold-silver project in the Golden Triangle, British Columbia.
• The survey successfully identified known gold-silver vein mineralization at the Windy target and extended exploration 700 meters southwest to investigate a significant gold-in-soil anomaly (>50 ppb Au).
• Management plans to expand the survey to support 3-D inversion modeling, with the goal of initiating a diamond drilling campaign in summer 2026.

Key Details

• Survey Scope: Two-line IP survey performed by SJ Geophysics in early September, totaling 1.3 line kilometers over the Windy mineralized area.
• Equipment: Volterra distributed acquisition system with in-line array using 25-meter and 50-meter dipoles; current injections every 25 to 50 meters.
• Target 1 (Windy): The survey tested known gold-silver vein mineralization.
  • North Main Vein: Corresponds to a resistivity high.
  • Main Vein: Corresponds to a distinct resistivity low with high chargeability.
• Target 2 (Southwest Extension): The survey extended 700 meters southwest to explore an extensive >50 ppb gold-in-soil anomaly.
  • Similar resistivity and chargeability features identified underlying the soil anomaly.
  • A series of signatures over a 400-meter interval, starting ~200 meters southwest of the Main vein, interpreted as similar structures crossing the survey line.
  • Near-surface combined resistivity and chargeability lows for 200 meters south of the Main vein correlate with alteration mapping.
• Future Plans: Results encourage an extensive expanded survey to support a 3-D inversion model in preparation for diamond drilling in summer 2026.
• Project Context: Wishbone covers 3,941 hectares and contains 11 target areas. It is adjacent to the Galore Creek project (Teck Resources/Newmont).
• Recent Discoveries: The Lake showing, discovered in August 2024, yielded boulders with values exceeding 90 ppm gold, including one sample returning 202.6 ppm gold.

Notable Quotes

• "We are pleased that IP appears to be a viable exploration tool to explore this target-rich project. Known gold veins at the Windy showing were detected as resistivity features, and a significant series of new resistivity targets have been revealed corresponding with strongly anomalous gold values in soil from the 2024 exploration campaign. We are excited to expand this survey over other targets on the property in preparation for diamond drilling in summer 2026." — Gary Schellenberg, CEO and Director
