(CSE:WISE)(FSE:966) (\"Earthwise\" or the \"Company\") has completed the first part of its two-phase 2025 field program at the Iron Range Gold Project (\"the Project\") in southeastern British Columbia. The program, led by TerraLogic Exploration Inc., included the collection of 538 soil samples over 13.5 line-km and 15 rock samples, along with structural mapping and prospecting across key target zones. Analytical results are pending and will be released once received, compiled, and interpreted.Earthwise holds the exclusive option to acquire up to an 80% interest in the Iron Range Gold Project, which is 100% owned by Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. (TSXV:EPL) (\"EPL\" or \"Eagle Plains\"), with part of the property subject to an underlying 1.0% Net Smelter Royalty.The 2025 field program advanced geochemical and mapping work across multiple targets at Iron Range:Sampling: A total of 538 soil samples were collected along 13.5 line-km, together with 15 rock samples.Soil Coverage: Tight-spaced grids were completed within known geochemical anomalies and extended into new areas, including fault splays and gold-in-till anomalies identified by Eagle Plains.Mapping & Prospecting: Geological mapping and prospecting were carried out at the Pyromorphite Zone and DIP Zone, with additional sampling at Golden Cap and Star West.Next Steps: All samples have been submitted for analysis, with results to be disclosed once received, compiled, and interpreted.EXPLORATION ZONES - 2025Pyromorphite Zone (BC MinFile 082FSE141): Mineralization was first discovered in 2009 when logging road construction exposed sheared and brecciated sediments hosting cm-scale quartz veins bearing pyromorphite (lead) mineralization. No significant work has been carried out at the zone since its initial discovery by the previous tenure holder. Historic rock (grab) samples include SK10-207, which reported 27.0 g/t Au, 173.0 g/t Ag, and 13.4% Pb, and MK10-170, which reported 54.7 g/t Au, 42.2 g/t Ag, and 2.8% Pb (BC Assessment Report 31659).Golden Cap (BC MinFile 082FSE014): Tight-spaced soil sampling in 2025 was designed to test cross-fault intersections along the main Iron Range Fault Zone.
