CALGARY, AB / ACCESS Newswire / February 10, 2026 / Kestrel Gold Inc. ("Kestrel"), (TSXV:KGC) is pleased to announce results from the 2025 diamond drilling program completed on the "Main Zone" and "14 Vein" zones at its 100%-owned QCM Gold Property, located in the Manson-Germansen area, approximately 240 kilometres northwest of Prince George, British Columbia, Canada. Highlights include: Exploration at the QCM Gold Property is being conducted by Centerra Gold Inc. ("Centerra", TSX: CG or NYSE: CGAU) pursuant to an option agreement under which Centerra may earn up to a 75% interest in the QCM project. Centerra is required to make aggregate cash payments of $900,000 to Kestrel Gold Inc. and complete $6.5 million in exploration expenditures, including a minimum of 13,500 metres of drilling, by May 7, 2029. Pat Lynch, President and CEO of Kestrel, states: "We are strongly encouraged by the potential for QCM to host significant mineralization in both Main Zone and 14 Vein and Centerra's continued project evaluation to pursue the full earn-in Option agreement. The 2025 results extending Main Zone to a 500 metre strike length, open to the north, northwest and down dip are particularly encouraging. The 2025 results for 14 Vein are the first extensive drilling completed and hold strong evidence for parallel zones and to increase extents in future testing. The early stage >90% gold recovery tests demonstrated in 24-hour bottle roll tests suggest the gold is easily liberated and we look forward to further testing." During the 2025 field season Centerra, the project operator, was responsible for planning and execution, completing 9,110.5 metres of diamond drilling in 36 drill holes. At Main Zone, 22 diamond drill holes were completed for 6,305.5 metres and at 14 Vein, 14 diamond drill holes were completed for 2,805.00 metres.
