Kenorland Minerals acquires Golden Sidewalk Project, consolidates Central Uchi

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 18, 2026) - Kenorland Minerals Ltd. (TSXV: KLD) (OTCQX: KLDCF) (FSE: 3WQ0) (" Kenorland " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the Golden Sidewalk Project (the " Agreement Area ") from Prosper Gold Corp. for total consideration of $1,000,000 in cash. The acquisition will consolidate and form part of Kenorland's recently staked Central Uchi Project (the " Project "), which now covers approximately 75,913 hectares in the Birch-Uchi Greenstone Belt of Ontario, approximately 60 kilometres east of Red Lake.

The Project spans approximately 30 kilometres of Mesoarchean greenstone stratigraphy, including extensive coverage of the unconformable contact with Neoarchean assemblages. This regional-scale structural boundary is analogous to the geological contacts associated with major gold deposits across the Red Lake district including the Springpole deposit within the Birch-Uchi Belt.

Despite its favourable geological setting, much of the Project area has seen limited systematic modern exploration and represents a compelling opportunity for additional grassroots gold discoveries. Gold mineralisation identified across the Project is characteristic of Archean orogenic systems, consisting of quartz-carbonate veining associated with deformation zones hosted primarily within mafic volcanic rocks and related intrusive units. Golden Sidewalk Agreement Area The Golden Sidewalk Agreement Area hosts several historical gold occurrences, including the past-producing Bathurst Mine and the Joe, KT, Dunkin, and Vihonen prospects, where historical drilling returned high-grade gold intercepts.

Previous exploration focused primarily on near-surface vein systems, with limited systematic testing of broader structural and lithological targets associated with regional unconformities and major deformation corridors, including the Swain Lake structural zone, which hosts multiple gold occurrences along strike. Numerous mineralised zones remain open along strike and at depth, while large portions of the property remain untested by modern drilling. More recent exploration identified the "Golden Corridor," a greater than 5-kilometre trend of coincident magnetic and resistivity lineaments located immediately north of a regional unconformity between the Balmer and Narrow Lake assemblages.

The corridor is supported by a strong and coherent gold-in-till anomaly and represents a priority exploration target. Along the eastern extent of the anomaly, a major east-west to northwest-trending flexure of the corridor remains untested by drilling, with the target open in this direction. Additional underexplored target areas across the Project are associated with prominent structural corridors, including the east-west trending Swain Lake deformation zone, which transects the northern portion of the Agreement Area, as well as north-south trending structural corridors interpreted to separate the Narrow Lake and Woman Lake assemblages.

These target areas are characterised by strong geophysical lineaments and widespread gold grain anomalism suggestive of nearby bedrock gold sources. Regional till surveys returned highly angular and pristine gold grains, indicating limited transport distance and supporting the potential for proximal mineralisation beneath shallow cover. Kenorland believes the combination of favourable structural architecture, historical high-grade gold mineralisation, district-scale gold-in-till anomalies, and limited historical systematic exploration provides strong potential for the discovery of additional gold systems within the consolidated Central Uchi Project area.
