BOOM · Price

Executive Summary

  • Galloper Gold Corp. has engaged P&E Mining Consultants Inc. to commence an updated NI 43‑101 compliant Mineral Resource Estimate for its 100% owned Lunch Pond South Extension (LPSE) gold resource.
  • The update will incorporate current higher gold price assumptions and is expected to be completed in Q2 2026, potentially redefining the economic ore zone and pit‑shell geometry.
  • Historical LPSE resource (2017) comprises indicated and inferred tonnage at both open‑pit (0.5 g/t Au cut‑off) and underground (2.0 g/t Au cut‑off) designs, with grades ranging from 1.72 to 2.99 g/t Au.

Key Details

  • Consultant Engagement: P&E Mining Consultants Inc., the firm that performed the 2017 MRE, has been retained to prepare the updated estimate under NI 43‑101 standards.
  • Resource Overview (2017):
  • Open‑pit design (0.5 g/t Au cut‑off): 993,000 t indicated at 1.72 g/t Au; 1,703,000 t inferred at 1.59 g/t Au.
  • Underground design (2.0 g/t Au cut‑off): 36,000 t indicated at 2.99 g/t Au; 373,000 t inferred at 2.78 g/t Au.
  • Valuation Context: The original estimate used a gold price of US$1,210/oz; the updated MRE will reflect the significantly higher current gold valuation environment.
