(TSX-V: HAR) (“\n \n Harfang\n \n ”) and SOQUEM Inc. (“\n \n SOQUEM\n \n ” and together the “\n \n Companies\n \n ”) announce multiple high-grade gold discoveries from their joint summer 2025 exploration program at Harfang’s wholly-owned Menarik West Property (the “\n \n Property\n \n ”), located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Québec (see Figure 1).\n \n\n\n HIGHLIGHTS\n \n\n\n\n Discovery of six (6) gold showings, two (2) gold and silver showings, and one (1) copper showing.\n \n\n Top three grab samples returned 55 g/t Au, 35 g/t Au, 5 g/t Au; in total eight (8) grab samples returned over 2 g/t Au.\n \n\n Additional gold-bearing and altered monzonites found within and outside the known Pierre Zone that will likely serve as a driver for future exploration.\n \n\n Gold discoveries on recently staked claims in the southwestern part of the Property.\n \n\n\n Rick Breger, President and CEO of Harfang, commented, “\n \n Harfang continues to punch above its weight. This is the second exploration program that has led to a gold discovery in the last six months. Here in Quebec, our partner, SOQUEM, deserves abundant praise. Their deep expertise in exploration and Quebec geology has been invaluable. This summer marked a major step forward for Menarik West—we advanced into previously unexplored ground and made high-grade gold discoveries both within and beyond the Pierre Zone.”\n \n\n\n\n “One of the most exciting developments is the presence of more altered monzonites outside the known Pierre monzonite. Our early interpretation is that these monzonites could host the core value of the deposit, with the veins and stockwork acting as high-grade sweeteners. With two bonanza-grade gold veins, widespread altered monzonites, and the discoveries on recently staked ground, both Harfang and SOQUEM are already seeing the benefits of continued exploration investment.”\n \n\n\n\n Summer Program Overview\n \n\n\n On July 29, 2025, Harfang and SOQUEM signed a definitive option and joint venture agreement (the “\n \n Agreement\n \n ”), giving SOQUEM the option to earn a 50% i...
