(TSXV: LSTR) (OTC Pink: SVTNF) (\"Lodestar\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce that, following the completion of a soil geochemistry and high-resolution UAV magnetic survey across the Gold Run Project in Nevada, the company is finalizing plans for both:A maiden diamond drill program, andA project wide DDIP (dipole-dipole induce polarization) geophysical survey.Both of which to commence during Q1/Q2 2026.\"Our team has taken a disciplined, data-driven approach to advancing Gold Run, and we are now in a strong position to begin drilling our most compelling targets,\" said Lowell Kamin, President and CEO of Lodestar. \"The combination of a maiden drill program and a property-wide DDIP survey gives us an exceptional opportunity to create meaningful value for shareholders by both testing known mineralized trends and expanding the pipeline of high-quality targets for follow-up in 2026.\"The combined programs represent the next major phase of systematic exploration intended to refine known targets, generate new drill-ready anomalies, and evaluate district-scale potential for gold-silver mineralization associated with epithermal and Carlin-style systems across the entire property.Highlights:Property-wide DDIP survey designed to:Expand geophysical coverage beyond current prospect areasIdentify additional chargeability and resistivity anomaliesRefine target prioritization for follow-up drilling through 2026Maiden drill program targeting four priority prospects:Independence TrendGomesRobbers KnobCrown NorthTargets all supported by:Multi-element soil geochemistryHistorical surface and drill interceptsStructural analysis and magnetic interpretationHistorical DDIP chargeability anomaliesHaving completed the soils and magnetics, Lodestar has now completed planning of its maiden drill program for Q1 2026 which will focus on 4 of the most highly ranked target areas on the project (Figure 4).
