Tempus Resources Ltd ("Tempus" or the "Company") (ASX: TMR, TSX.V: TMRR, OTC: TMRFF) is pleased to announce the 2022 exploration plan for the Elizabeth Gold Project located in Southern British Columbia.
HIGHLIGHTS
- 2022 drill program at Elizabeth to focus on expansion of Blue Vein as well as the development of other vein targets including the Main Vein, West Vein and Ella Zone
- The 2022 drill program builds on the success of initial 39 drill-hole (9,826 metres) Phase 1 program completed by Tempus at the Elizabeth project since drilling began in November 2020
- The 2022 program is planned to include approximately 30 drill-holes (for approximately 8,500 metres) including:
- Blue Vein — the Blue Vein was discovered in 2021 (EZ21-12 including 1.0m at 33.7g/t Au) with a total of 7 holes intersecting the vein to date (including three holes with 'bonanza' grade intersections, i.e., greater than 1oz per tonne), high-grade gold mineralisation identified over a strike length of over 80 metres (see Figure 1 and Figure 3)
- Approximately fifteen (15) holes have been planned to target the expansion of the Blue Vein high-grade gold mineralisation along strike and depth. The drilling will test the Blue Vein gold mineralisation over a total strike length of approximately 300 metres and to a depth of approximately 150 metres
- Main and West Veins — the West and Main Veins have minimal historic drilling and high-grade gold mineralisation was identified in surface trenching completed in 2003 (West Vein 55g/t Au over 20 metres and Main Vein 140 over 20 metres)
- Approximately ten (10) holes have been planned to target the potential extension of the of the Main and West Veins to the south of the surface trenching (see Figure 4 and Figure 5). Drilling will test the potential veins to a depth of approximately 200 metres
- Ella Zone — identified by trenching completed in 2003, Tempus completed one drill hole in 2021 (EZ21-21 with intersected lg/t gold mineralisation over 2 metres within a 4 metre vein system)
- Three (3) holes have been planned to test the potential of the Ella Zone
Exploration Holes — An additional 2 to 5 holes have been planned to test for the discovery of additional vein sets
- Potential for new vein discoveries north east of the Blue Vein and in the unexplored zone between the South West Vein and the West Vein (see Figure 1)
- Tempus targeting the completion of an updated NI43-101 Resource estimate for the Elizabeth project following the completion of the 2022 drill program
Tempus President and CEO, Jason Bahnsen, commented "The 2022 exploration program at Elizabeth will focus on further delineation of the new Blue Vein and the expansion of the overall mineralisation for the project in advance of preparing a resource estimate. We have executed a contract with our drilling contractor, Full Force Drilling, and we plan to begin mobilisation to site in May with drilling targeted to begin early June."
Elizabeth Gold Project — 2022 Exploration Program
The 2022 exploration program at Elizabeth will build on the success of the 2021 drill program and focus on expansion of the overall resource for the project.
A total of 28 drill diamond core drill holes (approximately 7,820 metres) were completed at the Elizabeth Gold Project in 2021. Combined with drilling completed in 2020, Tempus has now completed 39 drill holes (approximately 9,826 metres) in total on the Elizabeth Gold Project.
In 2022, Tempus is planning to complete an additional 25-30 diamond core drill holes (approximately 8,500 metres) at the Elizabeth Gold Project. The key target areas in the 2022 drill program include the Blue Vein, West and Main Veins, the Ella Zone.
The overall exploration drilling strategy for the Elizabeth Project is focused on increasing the size and confidence level of the historic inferred resource of approximately 206,139 ounces of contained gold (522,843 tonnes @ 12.26 g/t gold - SRK 2009). Apart from a few infill drill holes intended to convert inferred resources to the indicated category, the majority of the drill holes completed by Tempus to intersect the gold vein structures are outside of the 2009 resource block model.
The results of the 2022 drill program will contribute to the completion of an updated NI43-101 Resource estimate for the Elizabeth Project.
The Company is not currently planning to do any exploration field work at the Blackdome Gold Mine in 2022.

MINERAL RESOURCES
An updated Mineral Resource Estimate prepared by DRW Geological Consultants Ltd., with an effective date of August 8, 2025, was used in the PEA. Details of the Mineral Resource Estimate can be found in the Report to be filed on SEDAR+ within 45 days of this release.
Category | Cut-off (g/t Au) | Grade (Au, g/t) | Tonnes | Gold Oz | Strip Ratio |
Inferred | 0.20 | 0.58 | 36,733,000 | 688,000 | 2.36 |
- The Mineral Resource Estimate has been constrained to a preliminary optimized pit shell, using the following parameters: SG = 2.57 gm/cc based on testwork, mining costs = $3.00/tonne, mining recovery = 98%, mining dilution = 2%, process cost = $5.00 per tonne, G&A = $1.05 per tonne, gold price = $2,500 per troy ounce, throughput at 10,000 tpd., discount rate = 5%. A cost of $0.03 was added per bench to the mining cost below the existing level surface.
- A top cut of 32 gpt gold is applied to all zones except Zone 6 which has a top cut of 50 gpt gold.
- Mineral Resources have been calculated using the Inverse Distance Squared method.
- Mineral Resources constrained to optimized pit shells are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.
- Conforms to NI 43-101, Companion Policy 43-101CP, and the CIM Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. Inferred Resources have been estimated from geological evidence and limited sampling and must be treated with a lower level of confidence than Measured and Indicated Resources.
- All numbers are rounded. Overall numbers may not be exact due to rounding.
- There are no known legal, political, environmental, or other risks that could materially affect the potential development of the mineral resources.
MINE PLAN
The mine plan is conceived as a conventional open pit tuck and shovel/loader operation. There are two independent pits which are developed with five-phase or pushback designs. Pit shells were designed using 6.0-meter benches with a catch bench installed every 18 meters. A bench face angle of 66° was used, resulting in an inner-ramp angle of 45° when catch benches were included. An 88% overall gold recovery has been used in this study, which was based on bottle roll and column leach test results. Base case haulage ramps are 26 meters wide and have a design gradient of 10%. Processing rates are based on a daily crushing rate of approximately 10,000 tonnes per day utilizing two stage crushing
The mine and crushing will be operated by contractors with oversight by GMV mine management. The mine plan produces a nominal tonnage to the crushing and heap leach of 3,500 Ktonnes per year (10,000 tpd) from a total material movement of 93.8 Ktonnes for the life of mine (26,106 tpd LOM average).
The PEA is preliminary in nature; it includes inferred Mineral Resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as Mineral Reserves, and there is no certainty that the PEA will be realized. There is no Mineral Reserve at the Mexican Hat Project at this time. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Over the course of the mine life, 38.6 Mtonnes of Mineralized Resource is planned for processing out of a total material movement of 117.8 Mtonnes.
INFRASTRUCTURE & PROCESS PLANT
The Mexican Hat Project is located in the southeastern part of the State of Arizona, approximately 72 miles east-southeast of Tucson, and can be accessed from the Old Ghost Town Road., a gravel road extending south of the Town of Pearce or north from Gleeson Road.
Groundwater will be used as the source of water for mining operations. No permitting restrictions or quantity issues are anticipated.
A 69 kV powerline to site will be supplied by Sulphur Springs Valley Electric Cooperative from their power plant located 30 km north of the project site.
The crushing plant will be operated by a contractor to produce a crushed product for heap leaching with a 25 mm top size. Pregnant solution from the heap leach will be processed in a conventional adsorption desorption recovery (ADR) plant. The process plant will produce doré gold bars.

Ian Klassen, President & CEO remarked that "The robust PEA confirms our contention that the project's strong economic potential de-risks the development pathway, providing a solid foundation for advancement. The results validate the open-pit, heap-leach concept, demonstrate excellent metallurgy and recoveries, and outline a simple mining and processing strategy. With high margins, rapid payback, and straightforward engineering, the PEA positions the project well for the future, where detailed design, capital optimization, and permitting can advance with confidence."
2025-2026 Forward Looking Plan
The Mexican Hat Project PEA economics justify continued investment in project development. The forward-looking plan for Mexican Hat includes work required to advance the project through Feasibility Study and into the permitting process.
These tasks include:
- Approx. 7000 meters of in-fill drilling to increase confidence in the current geological understanding and mineral resource estimation to sufficient level to support mineral reserve development
- Metallurgical column, hardness, and grinding tests to further optimize and improve heap leach gold recovery, and to provide information for feasibility design work
- Performing a trade-off study for self-mining and crushing versus contract mining and crushing
- Geotechnical drilling and analysis to optimize pit slope design parameters
- Conduct base-line water sampling, and update of hydrologic, cultural, and environmental studies for permitting

Grande Portage Submits Special Use Permit Application for Environmental Infrastructure at the New Amalga Gold Project
- An environmental data collection station at the potential location of the mine's surface facilities to collect key meteorological data and inform project development decisions as well as future application for an Alaska Department of Conservation Air Quality Control permit and Alaska Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (APDES) permit.
- Additional meteorological monitoring equipment above the potential future location of underground workings.
- Stream gauging sensors to understand seasonal fluctuations in river levels and support design of a mine water treatment and handling system which is protective of fish habitat.
- Satellite uplink communications and power infrastructure necessary for system operation.
This infrastructure is intended to be utilized not only for preliminary environmental studies but also for ongoing monitoring during construction, operations, and closure of the potential mine facility.
Ian Klassen, President and CEO comments: "The submission of the Special Use Permit application is a key step towards gathering all the data necessary to design and permit a low-footprint mining operation which is protective of the surrounding environment. Installation of this equipment is also a milestone as the first instance of developing long-term infrastructure at the project site that could be utilized throughout construction, operation and closure of a future mine."
The Company has also conducted contracted fieldwork over the preceding two months which includes identification of fish-habitat streams and mapping of aquatic resources in the project vicinity as well as delineation of wetlands around the potential areas of mine surface infrastructure development. This new data is now being incorporated into the design and layout of the mine facilities to ensure protection of fish habitat, maintain integrity of wetlands, and minimize overall ecological footprint which will help facilitate the future environmental review and permitting process for the project.
The facilities at the project site are not planned to include an ore processing plant. Due to the resource location near tidewater and less than 4 miles (6.5km) from existing paved highway (Fig. 1), the Company considers off-site processing by a third party to be the most favorable configuration for the project. This setup provides several potential benefits:
- Eliminates the need to build a concentrator, minimizing mine footprint, power requirements and reducing project construction CAPEX.
- Eliminates the need to develop a tailings disposal facility at the site, as no tailings would be generated.
- No permanent waste rock storage facilities. Waste rock generated from mine development would be returned to the underground workings for permanent disposal as stope backfill.
- No use of chemical reagents for gold processing at the site.
- Dramatically reduces land usage and overall environmental footprint.
- Greatly facilitates post-mining closure and reclamation.
- Simplifies the environmental review and permitting process.
