(TSXV:LG)(OTCQB:LGCXF)(FSE:Y2F) (the \"Company\" or \"Lahontan\") is pleased to announce the results from our 2025 Phase One drilling program at the Company's flagship Santa Fe Mine Project located in Nevada's prolific Walker Lane. Lahontan completed seven reverse-circulation rotary (\"RC\") drill holes totaling 1,210 metres (please see table below). Significant results include:York: 89.9 metres (45.7 - 135.6m) grading 0.23 g/t Au (YOR25-001R): A very shallow, thick, intercept of oxide gold mineralization that greatly expands the footprint of the York gold zone and confirms the potential to expand the York gold resource along strike and down-dip, leveraging the upside value of the recently announced York claim acquisition (please see cross section below).York: A second higher grade zone at York: 18.3 metres (141.7 - 160.0m) grading 0.73 g/t Au including 12.2m grading 1.00 g/t Au (YOR25-002R). This drill hole bottomed in oxidized gold mineralized rock and is open up and down-dip, and along strike, defining a second gold trend at York.Slab: 39.6 metres (67.1 - 106.7m) grading 0.30 g/t Au immediately below the south end of the Slab open pit (CAL25-004R). This drill hole defines a second, strataform, oxide gold horizon that mimics the geometry of the Slab mineral resource defined by prior drilling* and confirms a new target for gold resource expansion. Cross section through drill hole YOR25-001R. The thick oxide gold intercept correlates with adjacent drill holes demonstrating excellent continuity to gold mineralization and the potential to greatly expand the conceptual pit shell used to constrain the gold mineral resource estimate at York. Note that the true thickness of the gold intercept is approximately equal to the drilled interval.The 2025 Phase One RC drilling program was intended to confirm multiple target concepts in the York and Slab gold resource areas at the Santa Fe Mine Project. Based on the very positive results described in more detail below, the Company is in the process of planning additional drilling at both York and Slab for later this year.York Drilling: Both RC drill holes completed at York successfully defin...
