Known High Grade Orogenic Gold Mineralizationand Unexplored Targets
Highlights of the Golden Baie Project Mineral Claims Acquired
Multiple gold anomalies hosted in soils, tills, and rock samples that span a strike length of about 100 km along a major tectonic boundary.
Underexplored – Only ~25,400 metres (“m”) of shallow drilling to date (historic and recent). Orogenic gold belts with similar geology, such as the Victoria Goldfields and
Mother Lode District , span hundreds of kilometres and host clusters of multi-million ounce gold deposits.The Kendell prospect, the first high grade orogenic gold discovery on the Golden Baie project, has seen 7,953 m of drilling to date with results up to 20.6 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold over 3.5 m including, 58.2 g/t gold over 1.1 m (hole GB-22-94– see news release dated
July 5, 2022 ), and 9.6 g/t gold over 7.8 m (hole GB-21-01 – see news release datedAug. 19, 2021 ). Gold mineralization has been defined near-surface over a length of approximately 200 m and remains open along strike and downdip.In the ‘Little River Trend’ area, located close to a paved highway, till samples have returned up to 1,049 grains of gold (see news release dated
Aug. 30, 2022 ) and a 0.5 m channel sample from a boulder graded 197 g/t gold (see news release datedDec. 13, 2022 ), both of which were up-ice from the Kendell prospect. Such samples indicate the likely presence of additional mineralized zones that are obscured by glacial till cover and yet to be found.At the south end of the
Golden Baie Project , theFacheux Bay target is an exciting new gold discovery made by the Company in 2022. This is a top exploration target consisting of an ~8 km structural trend (based on recent high resolution magnetics and LiDAR) with multiple 1 g/t outcrop grab samples1, including samples grading 13 g/t and 18 g/t gold (see news release datedMay 24, 2023 ).

2023 Field Season Update
After a very busy exploration program in 2022 that included two phases of successful drilling at the Kendell prospect, technical work in 2023 was scaled back due to market conditions and has been focused on extensive data compilation, mineral claims management and re-grouping, as well as some soil sampling and mapping work at the

This News Release includes certain "forward-looking statements" which are not comprised of historical facts. Forward looking statements include estimates and statements that describe the Company’s future plans, objectives or goals, including words to the effect that the Company or management expects a stated condition or result to occur. Forward looking statements may be identified by such terms as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “estimates”, “may”, “could”, “would”, “will”, or “plan”. Since forward-looking statements are based on assumptions and address future events and conditions, by their very nature they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Although these statements are based on information currently available to the Company, the Company provides no assurance that actual results will meet management’s expectations. Risks, uncertainties and other factors involved with forward-looking information could cause actual events, results, performance, prospects and opportunities to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking information. Forward looking information in this news release includes, but is not limited to, the Company’s objectives, goals or future plans, statements, exploration results, potential mineralization, the estimation of mineral resources, exploration and mine development plans, timing of the commencement of operations and estimates of market conditions. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking information include, but are not limited to failure to identify mineral resources, failure to convert estimated mineral resources to reserves, the inability to complete a feasibility study which recommends a production decision, the preliminary nature of metallurgical test results, delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental, environmental or other project approvals, political risks, inability to fulfill the duty to accommodate First Nations and other indigenous peoples, uncertainties relating to the availability and costs of financing needed in the future, changes in equity markets, inflation, changes in exchange rates, fluctuations in commodity prices, delays in the development of projects, capital and operating costs varying significantly from estimates and the other risks involved in the mineral exploration and development industry, an inability to predict and counteract the effects of COVID-19 on the business of the Company, including but not limited to the effects of COVID-19 on the price of commodities, capital market conditions, restriction on labour and international travel and supply chains, and those risks set out in the Company’s public documents filed on SEDAR. Although the Company believes that the assumptions and factors used in preparing the forward-looking information in this news release are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on such information, which only applies as of the date of this news release, and no assurance can be given that such events will occur in the disclosed time frames or at all. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, other than as required by law.
