The 2,454-meter, seven-hole drill program targeted bulk-tonnage gold mineralization at the Koivu Zone, Aarnivalkea West target (Figure 2). Highlights Fall 2025 Paana Project drill program complete: Seven drill holes at the Koivu Zone (Aarnivalkea West target) tested the up-dip and strike-extent of disseminated gold mineralization discovered in historical hole FAVD-64 (55.48 meters of 1.63 g/t gold including 8.50 meters of 8.57 g/t gold from 158.0 meters downhole7) and confirmed in hole AW-24-005 (36.45 meters of 1.50 g/t gold including 15.35 meters of 3.43 g/t gold from 150.15 meters down hole, see the Company's February 27th, 2025 news release).Assay results demonstrate continuity of bulk-tonnage style gold mineralization at the Koivu Zone covering a 200-meter dip extent and over 100-meter strike extent where it remains open down-dip and along strike:10.4 meters of 0.54 g/t gold at 193.95 meters downhole and 12.77 meters of 0.77 g/t gold including 6.0 meters of 1.15 g/t gold at 331.8 meters downhole in drill hole AW-25-0105.6 meters of 1.13 g/t gold at 92.45 meters downhole in drill hole AW-25-00715.2 meters of 0.35 g/t gold at 18.0 meters downhole in drill hole AW-25-008Vein-hosted gold mineralization intersected outside of bulk-tonnage mineralization:17.55 g/t gold over 0.5 meters at 282.85 meters downhole in AW-25-012Further drilling is warranted across the Aarnivalkea West target towards the southern Honka Zone, 500 meters south of Koivu, where previous drill programs discovered zones of high-grade mineralization (e.g., 18.14 g/t gold over 4.0 meters at 223.0 meters downhole in drill hole FAVD626).Results are pending from a Phase 1, 300-hole base of till (BoT) program conducted across parts of the Paana Project designed to strengthen the pipeline of high-priority drill targets. Phase 1 BoT program represents a small portion of the planned project-wide survey.\"Results from our follow-up Fall 2025 drill program at the...
