PROSPECT RIDGE COMMENCES INAUGURAL DRILLING PROGRAM AT THE COPPER RIDGE ZONE OF ITS KNAUSS CREEK PROPERTY

Prospect Ridge Resources Corp . (the " Company " or " Prospect Ridge ") (CSE: PRR) (OTC: PRRSF) (FRA: OED) is pleased to announce the commencement of an inaugural drilling program at the Copper Ridge zone within its flagship Knauss Creek property, located south of the Golden Triangle, near Terrace in British Columbia .

The drill program will test high-priority targets inside the Copper Ridge zone which covers an area of 1,550 metres by 850 metres. Identified through extensive prospecting and surface sampling, which includes outcrop samples with values of up to 78.9 g/t Au, 4610g/t Ag and 29.4% copper, the Copper Ridge zone is a north-south oriented quartz veins system mineralized in gold, silver and copper hosted in an intrusion.

"This inaugural drill program on the Copper Ridge zone marks a pivotal milestone for the Company, building on our extensive exploration efforts that have yielded exceptional high-grade samples," commented Michael Iverson , CEO of Prospect Ridge. "With more than $5 million in the treasury, we are well-financed to test this huge surface discovery and try to turn it into a deposit. This is an exciting time for the Prospect Ridge team and the shareholders. We look forward to sharing results from what we anticipate will be great drilling season!"

Key Program Highlights:

  • A 2,000 metres minimum program is now underway at Knauss Creek's Copper Ridge zone located south of the Golden Triangle, 35 kilometres north of Terrace , along the Trans-Canadian Highway;
  • Drilling will focus on the largest clusters of high-grade outcrop samples obtained through prospecting and aim to intersect the mineralized system at depth;
  • The program is fully funded with the Company recently closing an over-subscribed private placement of more than $5.2 million (see news release dated July 25, 2024 ).

About Freegold Ventures Limited  
Freegold is a TSX-listed company focused on exploration in Alaska . It holds the Golden Summit Gold Project near Fairbanks and the Shorty Creek Copper-Gold Project near Livengood through leases.

Some statements in this news release contain forward-looking information, including, without limitation, statements as to planned expenditures and exploration programs, potential mineralization and resources, exploration results, the completion of an updated NI 43-101 technical report, and any other future plans. These statements address future events and conditions and, as such, involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the statements. Such factors include, without limitation, the completion of planned expenditures, the ability to complete exploration programs on schedule, and the success of exploration programs. See Freegold's Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31st, 2024 , filed under Freegold's profile at www.sedar.com , for a detailed discussion of the risk factors associated with Freegold's operations. On January 30, 2020 , the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global health emergency. Reactions to the spread of COVID-19 continue to lead to, among other things, significant restrictions on travel, business closures, quarantines, and a general reduction in economic activity. While these effects have been reduced in recent months, the continuation and re-introduction of significant restrictions, business disruptions, and related financial impact, and the duration of any such disruptions cannot be reasonably estimated. The risks to Freegold of such public health crises also include employee health and safety risks and a slowdown or temporary suspension of operations in geographic locations impacted by an outbreak. Such public health crises, as well as global geopolitical crises, can result in volatility and disruptions in the supply and demand for various products and services, global supply chains, and financial markets, as well as declining trade and market sentiment and reduced mobility of people, all of which could affect interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk, and inflation. As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, Freegold has implemented a COVID management program and established a full-service Camp at Golden Summit to attempt to mitigate risks to its employees, contractors, and community. While the extent to which COVID-19 may impact Freegold is uncertain, it is possible that COVID-19 may have a material adverse effect   on Freegold's business, results of operations, and financial condition.
