Prospect Ridge Resources Corp. (the "Company" or "Prospect Ridge") (CSE: PRR) (OTC: PRRSF) (FRA: OED) is pleased to announce many new discoveries on the Holy Grail property. High-grade samples were obtained just west of our Knauss Creek property in the vicinity of the Copper Ridge zone and Leon’s Legacy showings. Other high-grade results on the western limb of the property are located on Mount Garland and the Wesach mountain. The fully owned Holy Grail property, starts approximately 10 km north of Terrace, British Columbia.
The last few days of the 2023 prospecting program gave us a surprise when the field team decided to step out of Copper Ridge and go on the Holy Grail property side. This led to the discovery of two new showings named Golden Bowl and Temple located approximately 1.5 km to the west and 2.5 km to the northwest respectively. On the western limb of the property, the summer of 2023 results are outlining two clusters of samples returned high-grade results, one on Mount Garland and one on the Wesach mountain (Figure 1).
Highlights from outcrop samples:
Golden Bowl
- 9.99 g/t Au, 183 g/t Ag, 1.81% Cu, 7.4% Pb and 0.17% Zn (W500082)
- 8.35 g/t Au, 63 g/t Ag, 0.44% Cu, 3.5% Pb and 0.35% Zn (W386369)
Temple
- 8.16 g/t Au, 137 g/t Ag and 14.8% Cu (W500697)
- 0.18 g/t Au, 94 g/t Ag and 4.6% Cu (W500698)
- 0.08 g/t Au, 22 g/t Ag and 5.9% Cu (W500696)
Mount Garland
- 7.9% Cu, 634 g/t Ag and 0.7% Zn (W387642, erratic block)
- 5.1% Cu, 0.11 g/t Au, 14 g/t Ag and (W489403)
- 2.2% Cu and 98 g/t Ag (W489406)
- 2.1% Cu, 61 g/t Ag and 0.23% Zn (W489408)
Wesach mountain
- 5.43 g/t Au, 9 g/t Ag, 0.22% Pb and 0.47% Zn (W501823)
- 1.13 g/t Au, 102 g/t Ag, 3.27% Pb and 2.57% Zn (W502285)
Prospect Ridge CEO Michael Iverson commented, “I’m thrilled with these new discoveries. Our exploration efforts have unveiled remarkable finds throughout the 2023 summer underscoring the richness of our land package and the skills of our field team. These new showings on the Holy Grail are confirming the extraordinary geological potential in the Terrace area south of the Golden Triangle.”
Prospect Ridge President Yan Ducharme added, “The Golden Bowl and Temple new discoveries are adding pieces to the puzzle connecting previously discovered Copper Ridge and Leon’s Legacy. These polymetallic veins stand as a testament to the barely tapped potential of this underexplored land package, hinting numerous future discoveries to be unearthed. All the mountains of the western reaches of the Holy grail have delivered high-grade showings often within a cluster of lower grade rocks. Summer 2024 will see us initiate the first drill holes on the Copper Ridge zone and we will pick up prospection where we left off.”
Eastern part of Holy Grail
Prospection approximately 1.5 km west of the Copper Ridge zone, in a topographic bowl, led to the discovery of a quartz vein containing 9.99 g/t Au, 183 g/t Ag, 1.81% Cu, 7.44% Pb and 0.17% Zn (W500082). Forty meters from it, another vein with 8.35 g/t Au, 63 g/t Ag, 0.44% Cu, 3.5% Pb and 0.35% Zn (W386369) was sampled. More mineralized veins were sampled at the bottom of the bowl, while two erratic blocks and a vein were sampled on the flank of it. The veins of this Golden Bowl showing are hosted in an intrusion.
Approximately 2.5 km northwest of the Copper Ridge zone and 1 km south of the Leon’s Legacy, 8.16 g/t Au, 137 g/t Ag and 14.8% Cu (W500697) was obtained on a quartz vein. Within 50 meters, two other samples gave 0.08 g/t Au, 22 g/t Ag and 5.92% Cu (W500696) and 0.18 g/t Au, 94 g/t Ag and 4.55% Cu (W500698). More mineralized samples were taken in the vicinity and are part of the Temple showing.
Western part of Holy Grail
The northern flank of Mount Garland is easily accessible by logging roads. The prospecting works led to the sampling of many quartz veins with chalcopyrite and malachite which contains mainly copper and silver, but also occasional gold and zinc occurrences. The best results were obtained from an erratic block, taken on a talus, which yield 7.91% Cu and 634 g/t Ag (W387642). Other in situ veins were sampled and gave 5.07% Cu, 0.11 g/t Au, 14 g/t Ag (W489403), 2.20% Cu, 98 g/t Ag (W489406) and 2.09% Cu, 61 g/t Ag (W489408). These samples are part of a cluster covering an area of 3.5 km by 1.5 km of mineralized veins and blocks. The alpine part of Mount Garland has not been prospected yet.

Prospecting on the southern side of the Wesach mountain, uphill of the Wesach Creek, led to the discovery of many quartz veins bearing gold, silver, lead and zinc. Sample W501823 contains 5.43 g/t Au, 8.5 g/t Ag, 0.22% Pb and 0.47% Zn and sample W502285 contains 1.13 g/t Au, 102 g/t Ag, 3.27% Pb and 2.57% Zn. A cluster of mineralized samples covers an area of 400 m by 400 m. Some sampled erratic blocks returned copper, gold and silver values. The source has yet to be found.

Cautionary statements
Outcrop samples are selective by nature and grades may not be representative of mineralized zones. True thickness or mineralization style and geological models cannot be determined with the information currently available.
Quality control
Rock samples were assayed for gold by standard 50 g fire-assaying with atomic absorption finish (Au-AA24) or gravimetric finish (Au-GRA22) or 1000g metallic screening (Au-SCR24) at ALS Canada in Terrace, British Columbia. The samples were also assayed for 35 metals from an aqua regia digestion with ICP-AES finish (ME-ICP41). For samples with overlimit results in silver, copper, lead and zinc, aqua regia with ICP finish was used (OG46 ore grade). A quality assurance/quality control program has been implemented and consists of inserting standards on a regular basis in the samples stream.

About the Holy Grail property
The fully owned Holy Grail starts approximately 10 kilometres north of the town of Terrace in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. It is easily accessible by the Transcanadian highway, the Nisga’a highway and a network of logging roads. It covers about 700 square kilometres and is contiguous to our fully owned Knauss Creek property.
Several gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc occurrences were discovered in the past. Almost all the creeks draining the property were exploited at some point and alluvial gold was recovered.
During the 2023 field season, the Company continued exploring this huge land package which contains many showings of interest.
The southern tip of the Golden Triangle is located immediately northwest of the PRR properties. The Bowser Lake and the Hazelton Groups hosting most of the deposits and mines of this area are also underlying the Knauss Creek and Holy Grail properties.

PROSPECT RIDGE CONFIRMS LARGE MINERALIZED SYSTEM AT COPPER RIDGE ZONE OF KNAUSS CREEK PROPERTY IN BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA
Prospect Ridge Resources Corp. (the " Company " or " Prospect Ridge ") (CSE: PRR) (OTC: PRRSF) (FRA: OED) is pleased to announce the results of its drilling campaign at the Copper Ridge Zone (" Copper Ridge ") of its wholly-owned Knauss Creek property located approximately 35 kilometres (km) northeast of Terrace, British Columbia .
Drill Program Highlights
- The initial drilling campaign at Copper Ridge included a total of 2,229 metres (m) across 9 holes, and targeted surface anomalies covering an area over 1.5 km by 850 m identified during summer 2023 by prospecting. The drilling covered a 300 m by 300 m area in the western portion and 300 m by 150 m in the center portion of Copper Ridge.
- Mineralized veins were regularly intersected in all holes with additional mineralization observed locally in fractures and the host rock. Three different 20-metre corridors (core length) of gold-silver and copper-gold-silver were identified.
- During the 2023 field season, 80% of the outcrop samples collected were mineralized yielding results up to 78.9 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au), 4610 g/t silver (Ag) and 29.4 % copper (Cu) (see news release of February 21 st , 2024). The holes drilled during the 2024 program intersected similar mineralization down to 120 m depth along strike.
Chief Executive Officer, Michael Iverson , stated: "We are pleased to share the results from the first drilling campaign at Copper Ridge, which successfully intersected mineralized intervals that confirm the extension at depth of the veins sampled at surface during the 2023 field season. We were also pleasantly surprised to find mineralization in fractures and disseminated through the intrusive host rock between the veins which we seldom observe on surface due to the intensity of the weathering. This initial drilling shows a large mineralized system of which we've tested only a small portion and that remains open in all directions. The results and the geological information collected will be used to vectorize the plans for the next exploration season. With over $2.7M remaining in our treasury, we are well-positioned financially to continue advancing our projects in the year ahead."
The best results are compiled in Table 1, while Figure 1 illustrates the drill hole locations in relation to the 2023 surface sampling program and the interpreted zones. Figure 2 illustrates a cross-section of the drill holes in the central portion of Copper Ridge.
Holes CR-24-001 and CR-24-002 targeted the westernmost portion of the zone where metal zonation was suspected based on the surface sampling results (see Figure 1). The Company hypothesized that a gold-silver area was followed to the north by a copper-gold-silver one. Hole CR-24-001 appears to have straddled both zones, intersecting an interval of 0.51 g/t Au and 1.7 g/t Ag over 20.5 m between 124.2 and 144.7 m along the hole and a further interval of 0.47 g/t Au, 34.3 g/t Ag and 0.40 % Cu over 2.0 m between 239.3 and 241.3 m . Hole CR-24-002 intersected regularly mineralized veins, which appear to be part of the gold-silver trend.
Holes CR-24-003, CR-24-004 and CR-24-005 targeted the surface anomaly cluster in the central portion of the Copper Ridge system where it was initially discovered. All three holes intersected a wide mineralized interval, interpreted as part of the same zone now referred to as the Green Manalishi. Hole CR-24-003 returned 0.39 g/t Au, 9.9 g/t Ag and 0.39 % Cu over 19.1 m ; CR-24-004 returned 0.18 g/t Au, 8.4 g/t Ag and 0.39 % Cu over 21.0 m ; and CR-24-005 returned 0.12 g/t Au, 3.3 g/t Ag and 0.19 %Cu over 22.7 m . Several additional mineralized intervals were intersected in all three holes suggesting another zone, GM2 (see Table 1) and demonstrating continuity of the structures. Surface samples can be correlated to those two zones.
Holes CR-24-006, CR-24-007 and CR-24-008 were drilled east of the previous holes and were testing the same cluster of anomalies, but also the continuity at depth of the Green Manalishi zone. This zone was intersected in all three holes: CR-24-006 returned 0.10 g/t Au, 2.7 g/t Ag and 0.11 %Cu over 6.7 m ; CR-24-007 intersected 5.44 g/t Au, 21.1 g/t Ag and 1.89 % Cu over 1.5 m ; and CR-24-008 returned 1.6 g/t Au, 6.1 g/t Ag and 0.17 % Cu over 4.7 m . Another zone, GM3, was interpreted in all three holes (see Table 1). Hole CR-24-008 which targeted rocks further north intersected alternating granodioritic intrusions, feldspar porphyry dikes and mudrocks. The presence of the sedimentary rocks suggests either an irregular contact with the intrusion, which is known to exist more to the east, or they are xenoliths. The sediments are locally mineralized, especially in silver, with also amounts of copper, gold and zinc.
The six Green Manalishi zone intercepts reveal a mineralized corridor that is oriented north-south and dips to the east. It primarily consists of chalcopyrite, but also of pyrite and malachite, found within quartz veins, fractures and disseminated in the host granodiorite. The GM2 and GM3 zones are believed to have a similar orientation as the Green Manalishi zone.
Hole CR-24-009 tested the western part of the same anomaly cluster and intersected 20.5 m at 0.05 g/t Au, 4.3 g/t Ag and 0.05% Cu, which correlate well with the location of the surface anomalies and are interpreted as the shallow expression of the GM2 zone.
This initial drilling campaign, generated entirely by Prospect Ridge from a surface discovery, has revealed a powerful gold-copper-silver mineralized system that remains open in all directions. The Company is developing a strategy for the next field season to further advance this target and apply the newly acquired knowledge to the mineralized showings to the rest of the property.

Cautionary Statement
Outcrop samples are selective by nature and grades may not be representative of mineralized zones. The drilling results reported are core length, true thickness of the mineralized zones has not yet been determined.
Quality Control
The drilling was conducted by Driftwood Diamond Drilling Ltd. The NQ caliber core was measured, photographed, logged and sampled by Prospect Ridge's personnel. The holes were sampled from the start to the end.
Core samples were assayed for gold by standard 50 g fire-assaying with atomic absorption finish (Au-AA24), gravimetric finish (Au-GRA22) or 1000g metallic screening (Au_ SCR24 ) at ALS Canada in Terrace, British Columbia . The samples were also assayed for 36 metals from an aqua regia digestion with ICP-AES finish (ME-ICP41). For samples with over-limit results in silver, copper, lead and zinc, aqua regia with ICP finish was used (OG46 ore grade). A quality assurance/quality control program has been implemented and consists of inserting standards on a regular basis in the samples stream and blanks and sample duplicates in suspected mineralized zones.

All scientific or technical information included in this news release has been reviewed, verified and approved by Yan Ducharme , P.Geo., President of the Company and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101. This news release was written by Yan Ducharme .
About Knauss Creek Property
The wholly-owned Knauss Creek is approximately 35 kilometres northeast of Terrace, British Columbia , Canada. It is easily accessible by Highway 16 and a network of logging roads. It covers approximately 30 square kilometres and is contiguous to the Company's wholly-owned Holy Grail property.
Several gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc occurrences were discovered, previously. The most notable is the Dorreen mine where four adits were developed and, according to historical documents, approximately 700 tons of ore were mined out at an average grade of 16.8 g/t Au, 58 g/t Ag, 0.22% Cu, 2.1% Pb and 1.4% Zn from a quartz vein (not 43-101 compliant).
During the 2023 field season, the Company explored the Copper Ridge mineralized zone which has become the main focus for exploration on the property.
The southern tip of the Golden Triangle is located immediately northwest of Prospect Ridge's properties. The Bowser Lake and the Hazelton Groups hosting most of the deposits and mines in this area also underly the Knauss Creek and Holy Grail properties.

NevGold Announces Updated Open-Pit, Heap-Leach Gold Mineral Resource Including 1,186,000 ozs Indicated and 548,000 ozs Inferred At Nutmeg Mountain in Idaho
Nevgold Corp. (" NevGold " or the " Company ") ( TSXV:NAU,OTC:NAUFF) (OTCQX:NAUFF) (Frankfurt:5E50 ) is pleased to announce an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (" MRE ") for the Nutmeg Mountain gold project (the " Project ", " Nutmeg Mountain ") in Idaho.
Key Highlights
- Open-Pit, Oxide, Heap-Leach Gold Mineral Resource in the Western USA: 1.19 Mozs of Indicated Resources at 0.50 g/t Au (74.2 Mt) and 548 kozs of Inferred Resources at 0.34 g/t Au (49.8 Mt). (Table 1, Figure 1, Figure 2)
- Higher Grade Mineralization Within the Resource: increasing the cut-off grade from the base case of 0.20 g/t Au to 0.60 g/t Au, the Project has 560 kozs of Indicated Resources at 0.92 g/t Au , and 85 kozs of Inferred Resources at 0.87 g/t Au . The higher grade mineralization starts at surface as seen in Figure 2 and Figure 3, and is within the 0.20 g/t Au cut-off grade MRE. To date, the Company has not completed any mine scheduling studies on the MRE. Exploring for more potential high-grade mineralization will be a key focus as the project is advanced with further drilling and subsequent resource estimates.
- Significant Growth Captured Over Last 24 Months: compared to the 2023 MRE, the base case pit-constrained indicated tonnage increased by over 18% and inferred by over 100%, with further upside identified with high priority drill targets.
- Mineralization Starts at Surface with Low Strip Ratio: mineralization at Nutmeg Mountain starts at surface. The strip ratio of the project based on conceptual pit-shells is expected to be less than 1:1 , which is extremely low for an open-pit, oxide, heap-leach gold project. (Figure 2, Figure 3)
- Tier One Jurisdiction: the Project is located in southwest Idaho, which is a favorable mining jurisdiction. (Figure 4, Figure 5)
- Next Steps: the Company plans to complete further metallurgical testwork to advance the Project to a Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA").
NevGold CEO, Brandon Bonifacio, comments: "This is another important milestone for NevGold and the Nutmeg Mountain gold project in Idaho as it further validates the quality of the asset located in a tier-one mining jurisdiction. We are pleased with the results of the updated MRE, as it illustrates the size and heap-leach grade of this at-surface, open-pit oxide gold project in the Western USA. The updated MRE also further validates the strong growth potential of mineralization at the Project, which remains open in multiple directions. We look forward to drilling the highly prospective targets that we have identified at surface and at depth. After completion of this MRE, we plan to advance to a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) to further advance the Project to the next stage of development. We have an extremely favorable macroeconomic situation with the gold price and momentum in the US to advance high-quality, domestic mineral projects . "
Table 1: Nutmeg Mountain – Open-Pit, Heap-Leach MRE (see notes below)

0.10 | Inferred | 87,406,000 | 0.26 | 732,000 |
Notes:
- Effective date of this mineral resource estimate is August 29, 2025.
- All mineral resources have been estimated in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum definitions, as required under National Instrument 43-101 (" NI 43-101 "). The Mineral Resource Statement was prepared by Greg Mosher, P. Geo (Global Mineral Resource Services, " GMRS ") in accordance with NI 43-101.
- Mineral Resources reported demonstrate a reasonable prospect of eventual economic extraction through additional exploration, as required under NI 43-101. Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the estimated Mineral Resources will be converted into Mineral Reserves. The potential development of the Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, marketing, and other relevant issues.
- Mineral Resources are reported at a cut-off grade of 0.20 g/t Au for an open-pit mining scenario. Cut-off grades are based on a price of US$2350/oz gold, and a number of operating cost and recovery assumptions, including a reasonable contingency factor. Metallurgical recoveries of 80% were used. Densities based on lithology were assigned.
- Ounce (troy) = metric tonnes x grade / 31.10348. All numbers have been rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate.
- The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Mineral Resources are uncertain in nature and there has not been sufficient work to define these Inferred Mineral Resources as Indicated or Measured Mineral Resources. It is reasonably expected that many of the Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration, however, there is no assurance that further exploration will result in all or any part of the Inferred Mineral Resources being converted into Indicated Mineral Resources.
- Tonnages and ounces in the tables are rounded to the nearest thousand and hundred, respectively. Numbers may not total due to rounding.

Nutmeg Mountain – Summary
Nutmeg Mountain is a low-sulphidation epithermal gold deposit located in southwest Idaho, approximately 20 kilometers east of Weiser, Idaho, and 120 kilometers northwest of Boise, Idaho. The Project is approximately 1,724 hectares in size, which is comprised of 210 federal unpatented claims, 12 patented claims, and 2 private leases. The Project has 940 core, reverse circulation ("RC"), and rotary drill holes totaling over 71,625 meters of drilling.

Nutmeg Mountain – Additional Exploration Potential
The work completed to date by the Company has identified several high priority drill targets for future drilling. Historical drilling was mainly focused on the outcropping and near-surface disseminated mineralization, which is primarily located on the patented mining claims and other privately owned ground. (Figure 1) NevGold has identified numerous additional near-surface gold targets on the unpatented mining claims surrounding the private ground. Additionally, the average drill hole depth at the Project is less than 75 meters, and to date the potential high-grade feeder veins typically associated with low-sulphidation epithermal gold systems have yet to be identified. Discovering additional near-surface disseminated gold mineralization and the potential high-grade feeder structures will continue to be the focus of NevGold's ongoing exploration.
Nutmeg Mountain Deposit Geology and Model
Nutmeg Mountain is a low-sulphidation epithermal gold deposit with exploration dating back to the 1980s. The Project is host to Miocene-age basalt and tuffaceous sediments, Payette Formation sandstone and siltstone, and lacustrine sedimentary rocks of the Pliocene-age Idaho Group.
Most gold mineralization that has been identified at the Project to date occurs within a north-trending graben, which is where most of the drilling has been concentrated. The graben is bounded by faults on the east and west, and sedimentary units change in thickness and character across the bounding faults. Mineralization is associated with multi-phase hydrothermal brecciation and veining, strong silicification, acid alteration, and faulting. Much of the surface alteration is composed primarily of opaline silica and appears to be replacement of Payette Formation sandstone.
There are four principal zones of mineralization. The Main Zone is the most significant in size and contains most of the gold in the MRE. Gold mineralization is hosted primarily in silicified Payette Formation sandstone that has been subjected to multiple phases of hydrothermal alteration, brecciation, and veining. The Main Zone mineralization occurs over a north-south distance of approximately 1,200 meters, a width from 250 to 500 meters, and a vertical thickness of up to 180 meters. Most of the gold in the MRE is situated in the top 75 meters of this vertical thickness, creating an opportunity to expand the resource vertically with further deeper drilling and additional data.
The North Zone underlies the narrow ridge crest at the north end of the Project, approximately 600 meters northeast of the Main Zone. In the North Zone, gold mineralization occurs as an oval, north-trending, tabular body that is up to 60 meters thick, approximately 335 meters long (N-S) and 150 meters wide. The Stinking Water Zone lies approximately 400 meters west of the North Zone and 600 meters north of the Main Zone. The Cove Creek Zone is located 600 meters southeast of, and approximately 170 meters lower than the Main Zone, with little to no surface expression.

Drillhole Data and QAQC Procedures
Prior to the Company's work, the Project was evaluated by several historical work programs starting in the 1980s including geological mapping, geochemical and geophysical surveying, several metallurgical bulk samples and 934 core, RC, and rotary drill holes totaling 70,254 meters. In early 2023, NevGold completed five core holes totaling 1,371 meters, four of which were located within the known envelope of mineralization. The data from these holes have been used in the MRE.
There is minimal documented QA/QC procedures or data available for drill programs prior to 2008. The Company drill program utilized full industry-standard survey control and QAQC programs and is designed to systematically validate as much of the historical drilling as possible through collar surveys, re-logging, and re-sampling.
Reasonable Prospects of Eventual Economic Extraction
To support reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction for the MRE, GMRS used the estimated block model to generate an optimized pit-shell using the following assumptions: a gold price of US$2350/oz, mining costs of US$2.20/tonne moved, processing costs including general and administration costs of US$5.50/tonne, heap-leach process recovery of 80%, and an overall pit slope angle of 50 degrees. Mining and processing costs are based on industry norms and benchmarking for this type of deposit and contemplated mining method.
Environmental, Social, and Governance Opportunities
As part of its commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices, the Company has commenced a review of alternate energy potential near the Project. These alternate sources include geothermal, solar, and wind power generation. In particular, the Project is in an area of high geothermal energy potential with two geothermal projects already operating nearby. There are also a number of solar and wind power generation projects in Idaho. The Company is actively considering collaboration agreements with alternate energy partners to assess opportunities to lower the carbon footprint at the Project.

New Break Maiden Drilling Returns 4.11 g/t Au over 31.3 Metres in Drillhole #5 and 3.35 g/t Au over 14.8 Metres in Drillhole #4 at Moray Gold Project
New Break Resources Ltd. (CSE: NBRK) ("New Break" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from its maiden diamond drilling program at its 100% owned Moray gold project ("Moray") located 49 km south of Timmins, Ontario and 32 km northwest of the Young-Davidson gold mine operated by Alamos Gold Inc. The six hole, 1,502 metre diamond drilling program completed by Enviro North Exploration Inc. out of Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, was completed between July 12 and August 14, 2025.
Highlights
- Hole NBR-25-05 returned 4.11 grams per tonne gold ("g/t Au") over 31.3 metres from 83.0 to 114.3 metres, including 6.75 g/t Au over 7.1 metres.
- Hole NBR-25-04 returned the following intercepts from 100.3 to 187.0 metres:
- 3.35 g/t Au over 14.8 metres;
- Including 7.25 g/t Au over 4.0 metres;
- Also including 2.81 g/t Au over 2.3 metres;
- Also including 5.07 g/t Au over 2.6 metres;
- 6.70 g/t Au over 0.8 metres;
- 1.15 g/t Au over 2.0 metres;
- 3.44 g/t Au over 5.7 metres; and
- 1.34 g/t Au over 4.0 metres.
William Love, Chief Executive Officer of New Break, commented, "The results from drillholes four and five represent the discovery of a new gold system and the best gold intersections ever returned at the Moray gold project. While historical drilling indicates that gold mineralization within the Fiset syenite intrusion at Moray may share similar characteristics to the syenite hosted Young-Davidson gold deposit, New Break now believes that sulfide mineralization within the Zavitz zone and below Trench 12, appears to have been remobilized and partitioned into the hematized mafic volcanics bounding the west flank of the Fiset intrusion. The recrystallized pyrite that carries gold is hosted in parallel westerly dipping breccia veins related to a contact metamorphic effect coincident with dilatant structural deformation flanking the west contact of the syenite intrusive. The syenite intrusive at Moray is interpreted to be three times the size of the intrusive at Young-Davidson by area, where little to no drilling has been carried out along the 3.7 km strike length of the western contact. Further drilling is planned to expand the Zavitz discovery zone."
Michael Farrant, President of New Break, further commented, "We are obviously thrilled with the results of this drilling program and wish to thank our largest shareholder and his wife, Ross and Patricia Quigley for their ongoing support, without which, this discovery would not have been possible. Ontario Junior Exploration Program grants provided by the government of Ontario were also a big help in funding our exploration efforts to date. Northern Ontario is one of the best jurisdictions in the world to make gold discoveries, where our efforts to date have resulted in a significant new discovery with excellent potential for expansion. With the price of gold hitting new all-time highs, the environment for rewarding our shareholders with a new gold discovery could not be better."

Drillholes NBR-25-01, NBR-25-02 and NBR-25-03 were drilled to test potential gold mineralization within the syenite intrusive, following up on the 2022 discovery of gold bearing veins at Trench 1. With the exception of NBR-25-03, the first two drillholes did intersect anomalous gold values with accompanying sulfide mineralization.
Drillholes NBR-25-04 and NBR-25-05 were drilled to test the gold bearing shear vein discovered by New Break in Trench 12 (Zavitz zone showing) in July and August 2022, where New Break reported an assay of 70.60 g/t Au from a grab sample taken from the south end of Trench 12.
Drillhole NBR-25-06 was drilled to test a potential N-S structure interpreted from the Company's gradient IP survey completed from October to December 2024.
New Break is in the process of interpreting these drilling results with a view to establishing targets for a follow-up drilling program, which the Company hopes to undertake in the fall of 2025.

Sranan Gold Intersects 11.5 Metres Grading 3.64 Grams per Tonne Gold in Saprolite from Initial Drill Hole at Randy's Pit at the Tapanahony Project in Suriname
Sranan Gold Corp. (CSE: SRAN) (FSE: P84) (Tradegate: P84) ("Sranan" or the "Company") announces results from a saprolite interval of the initial drill hole, 25RADD-001, at the Randy's Pit target located on a 4.5-kilometre mineralized trend at the Tapanahony Project in Suriname. The hole intersected 11.5 metres (m) of 3.64 grams per tonne (gt) gold* in weathered mineralized saprolite from a quartz and gossan (oxidizedsulfide relicts-rich) ore zone.
The hole is 300 m north of Randy's Pit and 280 m north of the high-grade grab samples of up to 76.6 g/t gold reported in Sranan's new release dated July 31, 2025, where shafts were being excavated. Hole AP12-14 drilled by Iamgold in 2012 is nearby and also reported similar high-grade gold values and similar thicknesses in the saprolite, including an intersection of 13.5 m of 4.17 g/t gold1.
Table 1: Mineralized zone in hole 25RADD-001 drilled by Sranan Gold.
Hole ID | Easting | Northing | Z | Azimuth | Dip | From (m) | To (m) | Interval (m) | Au (g/t) |
25RADD-001 | 766418 | 455438 | 159 | 230 | -50 | 23 | 34.5 | 11.5 | 3.64 |
Including | 29.1 | 30.5 | 1.4 | 21.1 |
*Above 0.3 g/t gold with max 3 m of internal dilution
Dr. Dennis LaPoint, EVP of Exploration and Corporate Development, commented: "These initial drill results are key for testing the gold potential of the Randy's Pit target. The results in saprolite, where no prior mining has been conducted by small-scale miners, in addition to the trench results reported on September 9, 2025, define a gold-bearing corridor of 500 metres with gold present in the near-surface weathered rock. We expect continued drilling to define the grade, orientation and structural controls on the Randy's trend in unweathered rock.
"Trenching will be used to extend the Randy's Pit trend further south and diamond core drilling will test beneath Randy's Pit and the area to the north. Continued drilling will determine how the Randy's Pit trend and Poeketi mines to the north are linked structurally."
Samples were prepared and assayed by Filab in Paramaribo, Suriname. All samples >2 g/t were re-assayed with 50-gram re-assay and gravimetric assay. Standard QA/QC procedures were followed which showed a satisfactory level of reproducibility. Reject samples will be sent to an independent lab for confirmation of assay results following standard procedures. Channel sampling, trenching and drilling are used to determine average grade and thickness. The Company notes that the core sample intervals may not represent true thickness of mineralization.
