The geophysical data reprocessing has highlighted strong U2/Th ratio radiometric anomalism both within, and interpreted to trend into, the Company’s Kirkpatrick, Inspiration and Quirke West Claim Blocks (Figure 5) where uranium anomalism and mineralisation have been identified by previous explorers (see NickelX ASX announcement dated 21st February 2024).
The High Priority Target areas identified by NickelX are now the focus of detailed field activities that have commenced, including mapping, sampling, drill hole siting, and engagement with first nations groups, while also evaluating additional opportunities within the district.
The claim blocks, collectively the Elliot Lake Uranium Project (Figure 3, Table 1), cover highly prospective uranium targets along strike from the Elliot Lake uranium district, which historically produced >360 Mlbs U3O8 from 13 underground mines1 (see NickelX ASX announcement dated 21st February 2024).
The Elliot Lake Uranium Project now comprises 41 multi-cell mining claims covering 180 km2. The Company is targeting conglomerate-hosted uranium and rare earth element (REE) mineralisation along the underexplored interpreted extensions to the historic, major uranium mining centre at Elliot Lake.
The targeted uranium mineralisation style is stratabound and consequently relatively continuous and predictable. The known deposits typically have excellent lateral and downdip grade and thickness continuity, providing potential for large-scale deposits (Figure 1).
The Project area is considered to have excellent year-round access, is close to infrastructure and service centres, electrical and water supplies and the world's largest commercial uranium refinery at Blind River (Figure 2), operated by uranium major Cameco Corporation.

The five discoveries confirm multiple copper-silver bearing layers within a 700-metre-thick sequence of interbedded sandstones in the AM District. Additionally, there is strong evidence to suggest that one of the newly discovered outcrops (Outcrop #2) is a continuation of the mineralized horizon at target AM-07, located approximately 1.5-km to the northeast. This supports the Company's interpretation that the copper-silver bearing layers in the AM District are continuous over large distances, similar to the Kupferschiefer and Kamoa-Kakula deposits.
"As we continue to obtain high-grade results and locate significant structural and stratiform copper-silver mineralization, the Company's staunch belief in Cesar as a potential for significant deposits comes ever closer to fruition," commented Brett Matich, CEO of Max.
"The AM-14 mapping and sampling outlines an area some 600 to 1000 metres by 1000 to 1200 metres, strongly supporting our belief in Cesar as a regional or district copper-silver target, as opposed to a cluster of smaller unrelated zones. We look forward to assay results in the coming weeks," he concluded.
Description of the Mineralisation
Preliminary work has determined that mineralization is hosted in layers of medium to fine-grained sandstone rich in organic material. The copper-silver bearing horizons are distributed across a 700-metre-thick package of interbedded sedimentary rocks that strike 240⁰ to 260⁰ and dip 30⁰ to 45⁰ northwest. Chalcocite, malachite and azurite are the most abundant copper minerals observed in the outcrop (refer to Figure 1 to Figure 3).
All five of the outcropping mineralized beds are open along strike and at Outcrop #2, the copper-silver bearing sandstone horizon could be traced along strike for over a distance of 285m. Similarly, at Outcrop #5, the mineralized horizon exposed for over 130m before disappearing under cover. Layer thickness ranges from 0.8m at Outcrop #4 to 4.0m at Outcrop #5.
Systematic channel sampling of the mineralized outcrop has now commenced. In addition, crews have begun detailed mapping in the vicinity of the discovery with the goal of extending the footprint of mineralization.

Background
The Cesar Copper Silver Project comprises three districts: AM, Conejo and URU. Collectively the three contiguous districts stretch over 120-km in NNE/SSW direction (refer to Figure 6).
Figure 6: Location and Scale of the Cesar Copper Silver Project, NE Colombia
This region provides access to major infrastructure established for oil & gas and mining operations, including Cerrejón, the largest coal mine in South America, held by global miner Glencore. Max's twenty mining concessions collectively span over 188-km².
In 2022, Max executed a 2-year co-operation agreement with Endeavour Silver Corp. (TSX: EDR) (NYSE: EXK), which assists in expanding its 100% owned landholdings; Endeavour will hold an underlying 0.5% NSR.
AM District
Starting in the far north of the Jurassic basin, classic stacked red bed outcrops with extensive lateral continuity have been rock sampled over many kilometres within the AM District. Highlight values of 34.4% copper and 305 g/t silver have been documented in the sedimentary red bed sequences. The Company confirmed that stratiform mineralization continues at depth with two scout drill holes completed earlier this year (Max News Release dated April 4, 2023). In addition, Colombian field crews continue to discover and sample new mineralized outcrops including at the recently identified AM-7 target (Max News Release dated May 25, 2023 and Max News Release dated June 22, 2023).
Conejo District
Midway south, the Conejo District is the most recent to be recognized and is characterized by structurally controlled mineralization hosted in intermediate and felsic volcanic rocks. Numerous mineralized outcrops have been discovered over 3.7-km at the primary target in the district with surface samples averaging 4.9% copper (2% cut-off). No drilling has been conducted at Conejo, but it has emerged as an area of focus for the Company.
URU District
Mineralization within the URU District is hosted in intermediate volcanic rocks and is structurally controlled, similar to deposits in the Central African Copper Belt. At URU-C, a 9.0m of 7.0% copper and 115 g/t silver surface discovery was confirmed at depth by drill hole URU-12, which intersected 10.6m of 3.4% copper and 48 g/t silver. At the URU-CE target, 750m to the east, 19.0m of 1.3% copper discovered in outcrop was confirmed by drill hole URU-9, which intersected a broad zone of copper oxide returning 33.0m of 0.3% copper from 4.0m, including 16.5m of 0.5% copper (Max News Release date January 24, 2023).
Cesar Target Evaluation
Max has identified and is evaluating 28 targets along the 120-km-long belt for potential drill testing. The Company is focused on expanding, refining, and prioritizing these targets in preparation for a drill program. Initial efforts have been concentrated on those targets with the greatest size potential with work that includes the following field activities:
Regional Exploration
Max has demonstrated that the Cesar basin is fertile for copper-silver mineralization over a large area; however, only a fraction of the basin has been explored. As a result, Max has dedicated one of its geological teams to regional exploration with the goal of discovering additional copper-silver prospects within its land package covering more than 1,000 sq-km.

MAX RESOURCE CORP. (TSXV: MAX) (OTC Pink: MXROF) (FSE: M1D2) ("Max" or the "Company") is pleased to report it has discovered another significant mineralized outcrop at its AM District, within its 100% owned Cesar Copper-Silver Project, Northeastern Colombia. The new target, AM-08 is located approximately 7-km southeast of the AM-07 discovery (refer to Figure 2 and Max News Release dated June 22, 2023).
"This new and exciting discovery reinforces Max's thesis that the Cesar Copper-Silver Project may host multiple stand-alone deposits. The Max field team has now identified 22 targets across three separate districts of the 90-km Cesar copper-silver belt: AM, Conejo and URU," commented VP Exploration, Bruce Counts.
"In addition, Max's 4,000-line-km high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over the entire AM District is well underway. Survey results will be used to refine existing targets and identify new targets by mapping the lithologies and the geological structures that control mineralization," he concluded.
Figure 1: Images of Outcrop at Target AM-08 and rock specimen with primary copper minerals Chalcocite and Malachite
Preliminary work on the new AM-08 outcrop has determined the copper-silver mineralization is hosted in a steeply dipping structure within a porphyritic rhyolite, a type of felsic volcanic rock, and that it is exposed across a width of 10m before disappearing under cover. Chalcocite and malachite are the most abundant copper minerals observed in the outcrop with minor amounts of chalcopyrite and covellite also present (refer to Figure 1).
Systematic channel sampling of the mineralized outcrop has now commenced, and crews have begun detailed mapping in the vicinity of the new discovery with the goal of extending the footprint of mineralization. Drone video of the AM-08 discovery can be viewed here.

Zodiac Gold Inc. (TSXV: ZAU) ("Zodiac Gold" or the "Company"), a West-African gold exploration company, announces that it has terminated the exclusivity agreement previously entered into with Mable and Fable Limited ("MFL") on September 26, 2024, due to MFL's failure to satisfy their funding obligations under the agreement.
By terminating the exclusivity agreement, the Company is now free to pursue multiple strategic opportunities (including partnerships, joint ventures and financings) that have emerged since the announcement of its recent iron ore discovery. Following that announcement, Zodiac Gold has received substantial interest from multiple parties regarding these high-potential assets. The Company intends to evaluate these opportunities with a view towards identifying how to best leverage its iron ore assets in one or more transactions that will maximize shareholder value. In parallel, Zodiac Gold intends to continue to build on the exploration success of its recently completed Alasala and Arthington drilling programs at its Todi Project.
David Kol, President & CEO of Zodiac Gold, commented: "The decision to terminate the agreement was not taken lightly, but it is imperative that we remain agile and open to evaluating all potential opportunities. The newly discovered iron ore potential of our properties combined with the very encouraging results of our recent drilling campaigns at multiple gold deposit targets provide Zodiac Gold with multiple avenues to build significant value for our shareholders. The level of interest in our assets underscores their quality and strategic importance, and we are committed to ensuring that the next steps we take are aligned with long-term growth."
Given the termination of the MFL exclusivity agreement, the Company will not have access to the funding that MFL had originally agreed to provide in exchange for the exclusivity arrangements. As a result, in addition to pursuing the various inquiries it has received from third parties regarding potential strategic transactions, Zodiac Gold is pleased to announce that it intends to complete an offering of units of the Company (the "Units"), on a non-brokered private placement basis, for aggregate proceeds of up to C$500,000 (the "Offering"). The Offering is being led by existing shareholders.
Offering Terms
Pursuant to the Offering, the Company intends to issue up to 5,000,000 Units at a price of C$0.10 per Unit (the "Issue Price"). Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Common Share (a "Warrant Share") at an exercise price of C$0.15 per Warrant Share for a period of 24 months following the closing of the Offering.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the Offering to fund continued exploration at its flagship Todi Gold Project, Bomi South, and Bong West licences in the Republic of Liberia, West Africa and for working capital purposes.
Closing of the Offering is anticipated to occur in late November or early December and may occur in tranches. Closing is subject to the receipt of all necessary approvals from the TSXV.
Finders
Subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"), the Company may pay finders' fees to certain eligible finders of up to 7% in cash of the gross proceeds raised in the Offering from subscribers introduced to the Company by such finders and up to 7% in finders warrants (the "Finder Warrants") of the aggregate number of Units placed by such finders. Each Finder Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at the Issue Price and will be exercisable for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering.
Hold Period
The securities issued pursuant to the Offering shall be subject to a four-month plus one day hold period commencing on the day of the closing of the Offering under applicable Canadian securities laws.
Insider Participation
Certain directors of the Company are expected to acquire Units under the Offering. Such participation will be considered to be a "related party transaction" as defined under the policies of the TSXV and Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company anticipates relying on exemptions from the minority shareholder approval and formal valuation requirements applicable to the related-party transactions under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a), respectively, of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the Units to be acquired by the participating directors nor the consideration to be paid by such directors is anticipated to exceed 25 percent of the Company's market capitalization.

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
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.

Intention to Spinout Blue Jay in 2025
Riverside Resources Inc. (TSXV: RRI) (OTCQB: RVSDF) (FSE: 5YY) ("Riverside" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce the completed transfer of its three key Ontario gold properties: Pichette, Oakes, and Duc to its wholly-owned subsidiary, Blue Jay Resources Inc ("Blue Jay"). This move lays the groundwork for Riverside's strategic plan to advance its Ontario portfolio by establishing Blue Jay as a standalone exploration company. Blue Jay can fully focus on the exploration, discovery, and value-creation potential that these assets deserve. This structure provides Riverside shareholders with exposure to potential gains, while also paving the way for capital investment aimed at unlocking value in these properties.
This approach is similar to Riverside's past strategy with Capitan Silver Corp. ("CAPT"), where Riverside shareholders received shares of CAPT, which gained value as exploration progressed successfully. Now, Blue Jay offers another opportunity to further unlock shareholder value, while Riverside retains a 2% NSR on each project.
Blue Jay is led by Geordie Mark as Chief Executive Officer, with the company in the final stages of appointing its Chairman, John-Mark Staude, along with a strong lineup of board of directors. Geordie brings extensive experience in the mining industry, with leadership roles spanning exploration, academia, and financial markets. He has spent over 15 years as a mining analyst on both the buy and sell sides in North American equity markets. Under Geordie's leadership, Blue Jay will leverage Riverside's Ontario-based gold assets and is already working on an exploration strategy, with plans to initiate a targeted drill campaign during H1 2025.
"We are excited to see Blue Jay Resources rapidly progress towards becoming a focused exploration company, dedicated to advancing this quality portfolio of Ontario gold assets. This spinout provides our shareholders with exposure to a new vehicle for value creation, while Riverside retains upside through a 2% net smelter royalty (NSR) on the projects," said Dr. John-Mark Staude, CEO of Riverside Resources. "Our goal is to unlock the inherent value of these properties for our shareholders through the potential share spinout."
Geordie Mark, CEO of Blue Jay Resources, stated, "I'm thrilled by the opportunity to lead Blue Jay as we explore Ontario's well-established Beardmore-Geraldton greenstone belt, especially in such a proactive mining jurisdiction. Both the Pichette and Oakes projects are strategically positioned near the Equinox Gold Greenstone Gold project, Canada's 4th largest open pit gold mine, which emphasizes the potential of this area. Our team is committed to realizing the value of these assets through a focused exploration strategy, and we're eager to expand our work."
The proposed spinout structure includes Riverside potentially issuing shares of Blue Jay to Riverside shareholders, allowing them direct ownership in the new exploration-focused entity. While terms of the spinout are under consideration and have not been finalized, Riverside's intention is to ensure shareholders can benefit from the success of both Riverside and Blue Jay Resources and provide positive upside for the growth of both companies.
About the Projects:
Pichette Project
The Pichette Gold Project, covering approximately 1190 hectares, is situated in the prolific Geraldton-Beardmore Greenstone Belt of Northwestern Ontario, a renowned gold-producing region in Canada. This 100%-owned project is strategically positioned near Equinox Gold's Greenstone Gold Project, Canada's newest large-scale mine and immediately east of Beardmore mining camp that produced from high grade veins similar to some of the targets found at Pichette.
Historical drilling at Pichette, primarily conducted in the 1950s, intersected shallow high-grade gold mineralization, including notable intercepts such as 3.4 meters at 16.7 g/t Au and 3.2 meters at 4.8 g/t Au, associated with banded iron formations ("BIF"). These BIF structures, which span over 15 kilometers of interpreted trend across the project, remain largely untested at depth, with gold mineralization open along strike. Positioned for efficient exploration, Pichette has road access via the Trans-Canada Highway and benefits from existing regional infrastructure. The assay information is historic in nature and will be retested as part of the planned work for Blue Jay to carry out in 2025.
Oakes Project
The Oakes Gold Project, located within the productive Geraldton-Beardmore Greenstone Belt in Northwestern Ontario, sits 20km east of the Equinox Gold's Greenstone Gold Mine. The project is approximately 5200 hectares in size and hosts a series of parallel favorable geology and shear zones with gold mineralization identified along its length. Historical drilling and recent surface sampling have returned high-grade gold values, with drill intercepts of up to 8 g/t Au and surface assays over 30 g/t Au. Geophysical surveys, including magnetics and induced polarization, have mapped several fault zones and structural features aligned with known geological units, offering significant exploration potential.
The project is accessible with robust local infrastructure, including roads, train line and power, which supports low-cost exploration efforts. The future exploration program could expand on previous findings by further testing mineralized zones along strike and at depth, positioning Oakes as a strong candidate for additional high-grade gold discoveries in a historically productive district.
Duc Project
The Duc Project is located in the Porcupine Mining Division, approximately 50 km southwest of Kapuskasing, Ontario. Covering 580 hectares, it sits within the highly prospective Kapuskasing Structural Zone, near the open-pit phosphate mine of Agrium Ltd. The property is underlain by a mix of metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks, with potential for gold and rare earth element (REE) mineralization. Recent exploration, including a 2023 helicopter magnetics survey, has confirmed key structural elements and identified promising areas for follow-up targeting work.
The Company is leading exploration efforts at Duc, focusing on gold mineralization and potential platinum group metals (PGMs). Historical drilling and geophysical data suggest significant gold and nickel potential, while current geophysical surveys have highlighted new targets. Planned work includes further integration of the new geophysical surveys, geochemical analysis, and then drilling to refine these targets and advance the project towards more detailed exploration.

Lode Gold Resources Inc. (TSXV: LOD) (OTCQB: SBMIF) ("Lode Gold " or the "Company") is pleased to announce the results of our ongoing interpretation of data collected during the summer 2024 QMAGT survey.
Importantly, two additional RIRGS targets "Stingray" and "Camp" have been defined on the Golden Culvert property as a direct result of incorporating the new geophysical data with existing geochemical datasets. These new targets complement the RIRGS targets already identified (a total of four highly prospective RIRGS targets, namely "Border", "Steelhead", "Stingray" and "Camp") by Gold Orogen, subsidiary of Lode Gold, on its nearby WIN property.
Field verification of both the "Stingray" and "Camp" targets is scheduled for next season whereby geologists will endeavour to confirm the presence of the targeted hornfels and/or intrusive suites while collecting geochemical data from soils and rocks in the area. The Golden Culvert property is remarkable in that it contains a 15 km long soil and stream multi-element Au, As, +/-Bi+/-Sb, +/-Pb, +/- Zn geochemical anomaly of which only a small 800 m section (called "Main") has seen drill testing. Prior exploration at Golden Culvert has already successfully demonstrated an extensive gold bearing, anastomosing quartz vein system hosted in meta-sediments considered to be an orogenic style of gold mineralization. The newly identified RIRGS targets significantly enhance the overall endowment potential at Golden Culvert, building upon the already considerable potential identified from the established orogenic styles of mineralization concentrated at the "Main" site, which have historically been the primary focus of exploration within this vast, high potential area.
Highlights include:
Recent QMAGT system geophysical results integrated with geology and historic geochemical information has identified two new RIRGS prospects on the Golden Culvert property, named "Stingray" and "Camp".
The Golden Culvert property contains a remarkable 15 km long series of gold in soil anomaly trending NW parallel to the regional structural fabric. One 800 m zone has been drilled tested, the "Main" target, (*best result of 2.53 g/t Au over 33.1 m) the remainder is under-explored.
''Stingray`` prospect is centred around a mapped Tombstone-tungsten quartz monzonite intrusion on the southern boundary. The QMAGT survey data suggests the intrusion is larger than mapped and most likely continues under a carapace of hornfels. Minimal historical work has been conducted in the past. There are stream sediments elevated in gold, arsenic and sulphur and a small soil grid evidenced anomalous arsenic.
"Camp" prospect is a well-developed zone of soil and rock samples with anomalous gold and arsenic (up to x g/t Au). The QMAGT survey has revealed this geochemical anomaly arcs to the SE of a distinct magnetic low. The magnetic anomaly is interpreted to be a previously unmapped reduced intrusive.
Fieldwork is scheduled to initially map the extent of hornfels and intrusive, with soil and rock sampling to confirm and enhance the prospectivity of our projects.
The news release dated October 15, 2024, focused on the RIRGS potential of the WIN property and gave details on the Reduced Intrusive Related Gold System model and the regional setting. For more information regarding RIRGS, please view the press release. In summary, based on the RIRGS model, the main exploration target is sheeted gold bearing quartz veins hosted in the cupola (roof) of a reduced intrusion or in the surrounding hornfels (country rock altered by the heat of the intrusion). RIRGS exhibits metal zonation with Arsenic (+/- Au) in the periphery and Au, Bi, Te in the centre.
When interpreting the QMAGT data, for possible RIRGS, the prime criteria was the presence of a distinct magnetic low zone (the intrusive), often highlighted by an annular of magnetic highs, (the hornfels), backed up by geochemical evidence. Figure 1 shows the reduced-to-the-pole total field magnetic survey covering the entire Golden Culvert property, with the newly identified "Stingray" and "Camp" targets highlighted.

This target is centred on a known, yet unnamed, quartz monzonite intrusion of the Tombstone-Tungsten Cretaceous intrusive suite, as it appears on the published regional geology maps (see Figure 2). Figure 3 shows the RTP total magnetic field image over this intrusion and it clearly suggests it is larger than mapped (dotted line in Figure 3), possibly diving under a roof of hornfel sediments, represented by magnetic high zones. The stream draining this area exhibits elevated Gold, Arsenic Bismuth and Sulphur; additionally, a small soil grid has a coherent arsenic anomaly. The source of the gold anomaly in the stream has not been identified and the potential area of the large zone of hornfels interpreted from the magnetics requires mapping, soil and rock sampling.

The "Camp" Target
The "Camp" target is a distinct magnetic low interpreted from a previously unknown reduced intrusive (See Figure 4). It occurs in a river valley in an area of low topography, and it may not be an outcrop. On the SE side of this magnetic low is an arc of anomalous soil and rock geochemistry that made up the previously recognized "Camp" prospect.
The "Camp" prospect has returned rock grab samples of up to 48.1 g/t Au from a quartz vein with some sulphides hosted within phyllites. The rock grab samples are nested in a coincident gold, arsenic, and lead soil anomaly.
The elevated geochemistry is a distal expression of a possible RIRGS represented by the magnetic anomaly. Field crews will be directed to the area to search for hornfels and/or intrusives to confirm any RIRGS affinity.
Figure 4: The "Camp" RIRGS target (left) shows a white dotted line around the 120 nt mag low interpreted as a possible reduced intrusion. The total magnetic field is presented in colour on the left. The right image shows the geochemical results over the same area. Bubbles are sized to gold results. The orange represents the soil sample numbers, and the yellow represents the rock samples - the larger the circle, the higher the grade. The highest gold result from rock samples is 48.1 g/t. Grey digital elevation background, the interpreted intrusion is in a flat valley and may not outcrop or be suitable for soil samples.

Future Plans
The 2025 field season plans are detailed after comprehensive analysis, consisting of geochemical information, geological mapping and extensive QMAGT data. The "Stingray" and "Camp" targets presented here are amenable to rapid reconnaissance to confirm the presence of intrusives and hornfels. Confirmation of this will present new RIRGS prospects that were previously unexplored on the Golden Culvert property.
Filing on SEDAR+:
Lode Gold has filed on SEDAR+ an amended NI 43-101 technical report (the "Report") on its Golden Culvert and WIN properties in the Yukon Tombstone Gold Belt. The report was initially filed on July 15, 2024. A typographic error was noticed in the original, stating that the best drill interval on the Golden Culvert property was 12.53 g/t Au over 33.1 m from 111.5 m in hole GC18-03, whereas the actual result was 2.53 g/t Au over 33.1 m from 111.5 m in hole GC18-03. The amended report corrects this error.
Both the original and amended reports were authored by Marty Huber, P. Geo. and Mark Fekete, P. Geo.
ABOUT LODE GOLD
Lode Gold (TSXV: LOD) is an exploration and development company with projects in highly prospective and safe mining jurisdictions in Canada and the United States.
Its Golden Culvert and WIN Projects in Yukon, covering 99.5 km2 across a 27-km strike length, are situated in a district-scale, high-grade-gold-mineralized trend within the southern portion of the Tombstone Gold Belt. Gold deposits and occurrences within the Belt include Fort Knox, Pogo, Brewery Creek and Dublin Gulch, and Snowline Gold. A NI 43-101 technical report entitled "Technical Report on the WIN-Golden Culvert Property for Lode Gold" with an effective date of May 15, 2024, summarizing the work to date on these properties is available on the Company's profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and on the Company's website (www.lode-gold.com).
In New Brunswick, Lode Gold has created one of the largest land packages with a 42km strike within 420km2. Its McIntyre Brook Project, New Brunswick, covering 111 km2 and a 17-km strike length in the emerging Appalachian/Iapetus Gold Belt, is surrounded by Puma Exploration's Williams Brook Project (5.55 g/t Au over 50m)1 and is hosted by orogenic rocks of similar age and structure as New Found Gold's Queensway Project. The Fancamp's Riley Brook is a 309 km2 package covering a 25 km strike of Wapske formation with its numerous felsic units. Previous exploration efforts have focused on just VMS-style mineralization hosted in the felsic intrusions, and mostly focused on the base metals - the Company is the first to focus on and assay for gold. A NI 43-101 technical report entitled "Technical Report on the WIN-Golden Culvert Property for Lode Gold", summarizing the work to date on these properties is available on the Company's profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and on the Company's website (www.lode-gold.com).
The Company is also advancing its Fremont Gold development project in the historic Mother Lode Gold Belt of California where 50,000,000 oz of gold has been produced. Fremont, located 500km north of Equinox Gold's Castle Mountain and Mesquite mines, has a Preliminary Economic Assessment(" PEA") with an after-tax NPV (5%) of USD $217M, a 21% IRR, 11-year LOM, averaging 118,000 Oz per annum at USD $1,750 gold. A sensitivity to the March 31, 2023, PEA at USD $2,000/oz gold gives an after-tax NPV (5%) of USD $370M and a 31% IRR over an 11-year LOM. The project hosts an NI 43-101 resource of 1.16 MOz at 1.90 g/t Au within 19.0 MT Indicated and 2.02 MOz at 2.22 g/t Au within 28.3 MT Inferred. The MRE evaluates only 1.4 km of the 4 km strike length of the Fremont property which features five gold-mineralized zones. Significantly, three step-out holes at depth hit the mineralized structure, typical of orogenic deposits that often occur at depth. Fremont is located on 3,351 acres of 100% owned private land in Mariposa, the original Gold Rush County, and is 1.5 hours from Fresno, California. The property has year-round road access and is close to airports and rail.
Please refer to the Fremont Gold project NI 43-101 PEA technical report dated March 31, 2023, which is available on the Company's profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and on the Company's website (www.lode-gold.com). The PEA technical report has been reviewed and approved by independent "Qualified Persons" Eugene Puritch, P.Eng., FEC, CET, and Andrew Bradfield, P.Eng. both of P&E, and Travis Manning, P.E. of KCA.
