Vancouver, British Columbia, TheNewswire - July 30, 2026 Rockland Resources Ltd. (the "Company" or "Rockland") (CSE: RKL,OTC:BERLF) (OTCQB: BERLF) (FSE: GB2) announces that it is planning a diamond drill program at its 100%-owned Cole Gold Mines Project, located in the west Red Lake Mining District of Ontario, with drilling anticipated to commence in mid-August 2026.

Rockland may earn up to a 70% interest in the Pipestone Bay Project. If Rockland earns the full 70%, Evolution has the right to reacquire an interest that would bring Evolution's ownership to 70%. Evolution may exercise that right only if:
