The facility, which carries a competitive interest rate linked to the 3-month SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate), is repayable over a 12-month term with interest-only payments during the first eleven months. At the Company's discretion, the loan can be extended for an additional 12 months, with adjusted terms.
Importantly, the loan is structured to allow maximum operational flexibility , with no requirement for project collateralization — underscoring Nicola's confidence in the Dome Mountain Gold Project and its near-term production trajectory.
"We're extremely pleased to have the continued support of Nicola Mining, not only as our toll milling partner but also as a continued financial backer," said Rana Vig , President and CEO of Blue Lagoon. "This line of credit adds an extra layer of security to our already strong balance sheet and gives us added flexibility as we finalize preparations for gold production this summer. It's a clear sign that sophisticated investors recognize the value of Dome Mountain and its cash flow potential."
This agreement comes on the heels of Blue Lagoon's recently completed financing, which was fully subscribed by long time existing shareholders that included Crescat Capital and Phoenix Gold fund as well as new strategic investors. The Company remains fully funded , with no short-term debt and over $3.6 million in in-the-money warrants , positioning it strongly as it enters the final phase of development.
While the Company may ultimately never need to draw on this facility, having access to it provides an important financial backstop. It ensures capital is available if needed to support production ramp-up, seize opportunity, or manage any unforeseen short-term needs - all without causing further dilution to existing shareholders.
Peter Espig , President and CEO of Nicola Mining, commented: "We've worked closely with the Blue Lagoon team for some time and continue to be impressed by their methodical and disciplined approach. Successfully navigating B.C.'s rigorous permitting process, while also building a strong, trust-based relationship with the Lake Babine Nation, speaks volumes about their leadership. We are pleased to provide this credit facility and look forward to supporting their transition to gold and silver production."
If the Company chooses to access this facility, Nicola Mining will maintain a short-term security interest over the Company's gold and silver production from the Dome Mountain Gold Project until the loan is repaid in full.

The Company is not basing its production decision at Dome Mountain on a feasibility study of mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability.

Â The Company understands that there is increased uncertainty, and consequently a higher risk of failure, when production is undertaken in advance of a feasibility study.
