Flecks of visible gold observed in a quartz-albite veinlet within PAR-26-149, the first undercut hole drilled in the stripped area at Parbec in August 2026, samples have been sent for assay. Visible gold is exciting and atypical for Parbec. The reader is cautioned that assay results should be awaited.

Additional surface sampling completed to constrain gold bearing surface channels
TORONTO, Ontario — September 9, 2026 TheNewswire — Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE: RFR,OTC:RFHRF | OTC: RFHRF | FSE: 9RR) ("Renforth" or the "Company") is pleased to update shareholders on our wholly owned Parbec gold deposit in Quebec, neighbouring the Canadian Malartic Mine held by Agnico Eagle (T:AEM NYSE:AEM), on the prolific gold bearing Cadillac Larder Lake Fault (the Cadillac Break) at the southern end of the Abitibi Mining District.
At Parbec, since the last press release, Renforth has completed the logging and sampling of the drill core resultant from the two undercut drillholes completed in August 2026, completed additional stripping and washing in an effort to constrain the previously press released gold bearing surface channels CHNL-PAR-26-51 and CHNL-PAR-26-58 located within the Parbec Gold Deposit open pit footprint and completed the QP site visit with witness sampling for our ongoing internal model/MRE update. Renforth awaits assay results for CHNL-PAR-26-59, CHNL-PAR-26-60 and CHNL-PAR-26-61 and CHNL-PAR-26-62, in addition to the samples taken from drill core and in newly cut channels/extension/infill as discussed below.
Parbec Gold Deposit Drill Core Sampling

As previously press released Renforth completed the drilling of PAR-26-149 and PAR-26-150, the first drilling on our Parbec gold deposit since 2022, in August 2026. We have now completed the logging of the two holes and offer shareholders who might be interested the following quick log summaries. Samples have been selected, bagged and tagged and sent for photon assay. Results are currently outstanding. The quick logs summarize visual observations of the drill core made by a qualified geologist. This includes the observation, as noted below of four fine flecks of visible gold in PAR-26-149. It is worth noting that while this is an exciting occurrence at Parbec, it is very atypical and not correlated with, or indicative of, grade, due to assay methodology. Sample results will be reported once received.

Parbec Gold Deposit Open Pit Stripping and Washing Update
Renforth continued the stripping and washing campaign within the open pit footprint for the 2025 MRE for Parbec. This was necessitated by the unconstrained channel sample results previously press released July 30, 2026, as follows;
-
CHNL-PAR-26-51 highlight result from 14 to 24.2m as measured in the cut channel (not true width) of 2.97g/tAuover 10.2mincluding gold sub intervals of 5.2 g/t Au over 1.1m and 4.13 g/t Au over 2.9m, along with silversub-intervalsof2.48g/tAgover2m, 1.93 g/t Ag over 1m and 4.42 g/t Ag over 1.75m.
-
CHNL-PAR-26-58 highlight result from 16.15 to 18.7m as measured in the cut channel (not true width) of 8.02g/tAuover2.55mincluding a gold sub interval of28.77g/tAuand3.6g/tAgover0.6m.
The results above are not new assay information. Because both channels were unconstrained, additional stripping and washing was undertaken so that the channels could be started and stopped in non-gold bearing rock, thereby constraining the samples. Details of the additional channels are as follows:
-
CHNL-PAR-26-51 – an extension of 3.7m was cut in the northern end of the channel, through the porphyry/felsite and finishing in sheared diorite. In the south end the first two samples were duplicated in fresh rock.
-
CHNL-PAR-26-58 – no cutting was done, CHNL-PAR-60 effectively constrains CHNL-PAR-26-58 and the additional porphyry exposed in stripping.
-
CHNL-PAR-26-60 – two samples were cut in the middle of this channel over a 1.2m gap within the mineralized porphyry. (Assay results for CHNL-PAR-26-60 not yet received)
-
CHNL-PAR-26-62 – a new channel was cut approximately 15m west of Channel 51 and approximately 1m from the collar of PAR-17-67.

Samples selected in this recently completed extended channel sampling program have been submitted to the laboratory for analysis, results will be released once received.
Renforth is proceeding with an update to our geological model and resource statement for the Parbec gold deposit, as previously press released. Currently it is planned that this update is internal, however, the QP visit has been completed with witness sampling to support public disclosure should Renforth choose to pursue this avenue.
This press release does not include any new assay results. Assay results from the channel sampling programs and the drill program will be released when received and reviewed by the Company's qualified person. Renforth is also currently awaiting the Victoria drill program assay results.
Technical and exploration information disclosed in this press release has been reviewed and approved by Francis R. Newton, P. Geo. OGQ, an independent "qualified person" as defined by NI 43-101.
Sampling and assay protocols for sampling referenced above will be press released with the applicable assay results once available.

Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE: RFR,OTC:RFHRF | OTC: RFHRF | FSE: 9RR) is a Canadian junior gold exploration company focused on advancing the Parbec gold deposit in the prolific Abitibi region of Québec to the point where Renforth can monetize Parbec in order to develop Renforth's Victoria nickel focussed bulk tonnage polymetallic deposit. Parbec is strategically located immediately adjacent to Agnico Eagle Mines Limited's (T:AEM – NYSE:AEM) Canadian Malartic complex, one of the largest open-pit gold mines in Canada. Renforth's Victoria Ni/Cu/Co/Zn polymetallic deposit is also contiguous to Canadian Malartic, with a resource declared over only 12% of the ~20km length of the mineralized structure, forming part of a wholly owned district scale property with several mineralized occurrences. Renforth is committed to disciplined, systematic exploration and transparent disclosure as it works to unlock the value of its Abitibi-region portfolio.
