Upcoming Copper Creek Project Milestones

• Updated Mineral Resource Estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment near the end of the third quarter of 2025.

• Commencement of a 40,000+ m Phase IV drill program in September 2025.

Copper Creek Project Update

With extensive historical exploration, over 200,000 m of drilling and modest past production, significant exploration upside remains. There are over 320 known breccia occurrences mapped at the surface, of which less than 15% have been drill tested and only 17 are included in the MRE.

In the Phase II drill program, assay results confirmed the potential for gold to occur in economic concentrations in certain phases of the mineralization. Gold is not currently included in the MRE. A sampling program to gather sufficient data coverage for potential gold inclusion in future technical studies is largely complete. The results from the Childs Aldwinkle and Copper Prince breccias, as well as the Keel underground zone, have been returned and released. The Company continues to evaluate other areas for potential inclusion of gold in future mineral resource updates.

The Company has reported results from a metallurgical program focused on grind size optimization that demonstrated the viability of coarse particle flotation, gold recoveries in concentrate and test work on near surface oxide mineralization.

The Company is focused on exploration at the property, while continuing to advance technical studies, environmental data gathering, and stakeholder outreach.

Phase III drilling was completed in mid-April 2025 with 79 drill holes and 30,069 m of drilling. All results from the Phase III drilling have been released.

The program's framework was based on historical work, knowledge from the geological and recently updated structural model, the results from the Phase I and Phase II drill programs, geophysical and airborne spectral data sets, and economic criteria defined in the PEA base case.

The focus of drilling was on the near-surface mineralization in the American Eagle, Area 51 and Rum areas.

The Company has awarded scopes of work to independent consultants to deliver an updated MRE and PEA near the end of the third quarter of 2025.

• The updated MRE will incorporate drill results from the Phase II and Phase III drill programs, including approximately 40,000 m of additional drilling compared to the current MRE.

On June 30, 2025, the Company received approval of its Exploration Plan of Operations ("EPO") by the Bureau of Land Management ("BLM"). The BLM published the final Environmental Assessment, and finding of no significant impact ("FONSI") and issued a related Decision Record approving the EPO. The EPO includes up to 67 drill pads located on Federal land:

• 48 drill pads in or near the American Eagle area and the southern portion of the Mammoth resource area;

• 10 drill pads in or near other existing resource areas at Old Reliable, Globe, Copper Prince and Copper Giant; and

• 9 drill pads that enable reconnaissance drilling on previously untested targets

Cash Flow, Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company is a resource exploration-stage company and does not generate any revenue and has been mainly relying on equity-based financing to fund its operations. As at June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2,393,384 (December 31, 2024 - $17,003,895) and current assets less current liabilities of $683,960 (December 31, 2024 - $13,129,205).

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, cash used in operating activities was $14,422,428 (2024 - $10,752,689), cash used in investing activities was $259,507 (2024 - $529,462), and cash provided by financing activities was $35,200 (2024 - $22,138,253). The Company continues to incur operating costs primarily related to exploration and evaluation expenses and no significant investing or financing activities occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The Company will need to raise additional funding to finance its day-to-day operations and to enable the Company to achieve its long-term business objectives. On May 30, 2024, the Company completed an equity-based financing for net proceeds of $22,138,253, which included share issuance costs of $861,747, to fund its operations.
