Rockland Resources Ltd.

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 is currently accepting bids from drilling contractors for the program. The selected contractor and planned meterage will be announced upon award of the contract.

Clarification of LOI Terms with Evolution Mining

Further to the Company's news release dated July 29, 2026, Rockland wishes to clarify the ownership outcome contemplated under its non-binding Letter of Intent (the "LOI") with a subsidiary of Evolution Mining Limited (ASX: EVN) ("Evolution") in respect of Evolution's Pipestone Bay Project.

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:

  • Rockland has defined a mineral resource containing at least 1.5 million ounces of gold or gold equivalent; and 

  • Evolution pays 1.5 times the relevant expenditures incurred by Rockland. 

If Evolution exercises the right, Rockland will retain a 30% interest in the Pipestone Bay Project.
