VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, July 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HI-VIEW RESOURCES INC. ("Hi-View" or the "Company") (CSE: GXLD; OTCQB: GXLDF; FSE: B630) announces the Company has launched its 2026 exploration program in British Columbia's prolific Toodoggone Mining District.

The 2026 program has planned for 50 line kilometres of induced polarization (IP) surveying, 50 square kilometres of geological mapping and prospecting, and approximately 4,000 soil samples covering more than 100 square kilometres. All soil samples will be analyzed using an ultratrace multielement package. Drill permits have been approved for the company's principal target areas of Lawyer's East, Borealis, and the Golden Stranger with exploration activities focused around finalizing targets.
R. Nick Horsley, chief executive officer of Hi-View commented: "This exploration program will be focused on final target vectoring of porphyry targets focusing on the most advanced target areas. Once the data is collected from the priority targets the Company will look to advance towards a drill program."
Target areas
Fieldwork is distributed across multiple target areas on the Property. Planned activities by area include:
Lawyers East -- IP, soils, prospecting and mapping;
Borealis -- IP, soils, prospecting and mapping;
Black Pearl -- IP, soils, mapping and prospecting;
Golden Stranger -- IP, soils and prospecting;
Saunders -- IP, prospecting and mapping;
Nub -- IP, soils and prospecting;
Northern properties -- mapping and prospecting.
Additional target areas on the property include Harmon Peak, Ursus, Junker, Garnet and Oxide Summit.

Program details
IP surveying is planned over anomalies identified in the company's 2025 airborne magnetic data, in conjunction with areas that show coincident surface geochemical anomalies. Geological mapping will focus on detailing structure, alteration, veining and mineralization patterns in selected areas of interest, with the objective of vectoring toward porphyry- and epithermal-style mineralization. The program will validate legacy mapping and samples and examine new historically underexplored targets applying analytical techniques unused on the property (such as hyperspectral analysis, petrography and whole-rock geochemistry where necessary) to build the company's geological models and further delineate the company's targets.
Soil sampling will span prospective areas of the southern part of the property as well as Black Pearl, amongst the company's northern claims. Focus will be where rock exposure is more limited within the company's areas of interest and where legacy soil sample data were limited in results. The ultratrace multielement package is intended to detect low-level pathfinder elements, including tellurium and selenium, that are associated with porphyry-epithermal systems and are often missed at higher analytical detection limits.
