Riverside Resources Receives Conditional TSX-V Approval for Spin-Out of Ontario Gold Projects and Engages ICP Securities Inc. for Automated Market Making Services

Riverside Resources Receives Conditional TSX-V Approval for Spin-Out of Ontario Gold Projects and Engages ICP Securities Inc. for Automated Market Making Services

Riverside Resources Inc. (TSXV: RRI) (OTCQB: RVSDF) (FSE: 5YY) ("Riverside" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that it has received the TSX Venture Exchange's conditional approval for the previously announced spin-out of Blue Jay Gold Corp. ("Blue Jay") by way of a statutory plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") pursuant to the arrangement provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Arrangement will be voted on by Riverside shareholders at its Annual General and Special Shareholder Meeting scheduled for March 31, 2025 (the "Meeting"). This potential share distribution offers Riverside shareholders, prior to the record date, a similar opportunity to the previous Capitan Silver (CAPT.V) spin-out. In that transaction, Riverside shareholders received shares of Capitan Silver, which have since doubled in value compared to their price at the time of the spinout.

The Arrangement aligns with Riverside's strategic plans and key 2025 catalysts, positioning the company for continued progress in the coming months. As part of this strategy, Riverside will retain royalties on each of its Ontario gold projects-Pichette, Oakes, and Duc-adding to its growing portfolio of mineral royalties across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Additionally, Riverside is actively working on gold, copper, and rare earth element (REE) projects in British Columbia and Sonora, Mexico, with exploration programs funded by partners. These partnerships provide Riverside with carried interests and potential future royalties, further enhancing long-term value for shareholders. Additional information concerning the Arrangement is contained in Riverside's news release dated January 28, 2025 and will be provided to Riverside shareholders in an information circular in respect of the Meeting.

"The spinout of Blue Jay Gold is an exciting opportunity for Riverside shareholders to gain direct exposure to a new, focused gold exploration company," said John-Mark Staude, CEO of Riverside Resources. "Under the Arrangement, shareholders will receive one share of Blue Jay Gold for every five shares of Riverside held, giving them a stake in a company dedicated to advancing these high-potential Ontario gold projects. We've seen this strategy create additional value in the past. Our previous spinout of Capitan Mining gave shareholders direct ownership in a separate exploration company, and those shares went on to appreciate significantly. By structuring Blue Jay Gold in a similar way, we are unlocking the potential of these assets while allowing Riverside to retain upside through royalties. This approach can provide both immediate and long-term value for our shareholders."

In a recent interview, John-Mark Staude, President of Riverside Resources, and Geordie Mark, CEO of Blue Jay Gold, discuss their 2025 plans, including the upcoming Blue Jay Gold spin-out and exploration initiatives in Ontario and Mexico. Listen to the full conversation here: https://www.kereport.com/2025/02/21/riverside-resources-plans-for-2025-blue-jay-gold-spin-out-update-ontario-gold-projects/.

The Company has taken an additional key step toward completing the spinout with the filing of the National Instrument 43-101 Technical Report for the Pichette Project in Ontario with the TSX Venture Exchange. This report provides scientific data and general context for interested parties to review. The filing aligns with the authorization process for Riverside's planned Blue Jay Gold share spinout, which will be voted on at the AGM at the end of March. A similar approach was used for Capitan Mining.

The Company has engaged the services of ICP Securities Inc. ("ICP") to provide automated market making services, including use of its proprietary algorithm, ICP Premium™, in compliance with the policies and guidelines of the TSX Venture Exchange and other applicable legislation.

- First ore parcel from Phillips Find consisted of 37,624 dry tonnes at 1.46g/t for 1,675.3oz at an average price of $4,728/oz, generating ~$7.9M to the Phillips Find JV

- An additional 80,000t of ore from Phillips Find will be processed at the Greenfields Mill in both April and June in addition to approximately 80,000t of ore to be processes from Boorara to complete the Toll Processing Agreement with FMR.

- A New Toll Milling Agreement executed to treat 70,000t of ore from Phillips Find in September/October 2025 to be processed at Focus Minerals Limited's (Focus) Three Mile Hill processing plant

- Grade control drilling completed at Phillips Find and has resulted in a revised schedule where the final 70,000t ore mined in the current campaign is treated at Three Mile Hill Mining, haulage and processing progressing well at Boorara

- Proceeds received from the processing of the first 50,604t of Boorara ore under the Ore Sale Agreement with Norton Gold Fields' Paddington Mill for the processing of total of 1.24Mt of Boorara ore

- Boorara is now operating at steady state ore production

Commenting on the mining progress, Managing Director and CEO Mr Grant Haywood said:

"Following on from our first gold pour for Boorara in January, we have now built up significant ore stockpiles, with mining now in steady state operation and in a position for the continuous processing of ore and cashflow generation which will continue well into 2026. We are also pleased to secure a new toll treatment agreement with Focus Minerals which aligns with the revised mining schedule at Phillips Find and allows us to increase our overall gold production from Boorara. As gold production ramps up in the June quarter we expect to commence a steady cash build from our dual mining and haulage operations."

Next Steps

The next campaign of ore treatment at FMR's Greenfields mill is scheduled to commence on 9 April 2025 and will comprise approximately 40kt of Boorara ore and 40kt of Phillips Find ore.
