Combined with ongoing development and technical initiatives, including geotechnical, hydrogeological and condemnation drilling to support future infrastructure planning, extensive geophysical and remote sensing surveys, and expanded environmental baseline studies now entering their second year,the 2026 exploration program represents a significant milestone in advancing the Scottie Gold Mine Project. Together, these integrated programs are expected to drive resource growth, de-risk future development, and further unlock the potential of Scottie's district-scale gold assets in British Columbia's prolific Golden Triangle.

"Having pushed into camp earlier than any of our previous programs, we are now well into our largest drill program to date," said Dr. Thomas Mumford, President & CEO. "Drilling commenced on the Blueberry Contact Zone, and we are now positioning drills on the Scottie Gold Mine and the Domino target, with assays pending on 47 holes.

Scottie Resources holds 100% interest in the Scottie Gold Mine Property, which includes the high-grade, past-producing Scottie Gold Mine and the adjacent Blueberry Contact Zone.

In total, Scottie controls approximately 58,500 hectares of highly prospective mineral claims within the Stewart Mining Camp in British Columbia's Golden Triangle-one of the world's most prolific mineralized districts. Scottie's current resource estimate on the Scottie Gold Mine Project includes a total of 703,000 gold ounces at an average grade of 6.1 g/t (Inferred category) in 3.6 million tonnes, highlighting the development potential for a significant near-surface, high-grade deposit. The Company's strategy is to continue expanding this resource and to define additional mineralization around past-producing mines through systematic drilling and surface exploration.

The Company has recently completed a PEA for the Scottie Gold Mine. The PEA outlines a robust Direct-Ship Ore (DSO) development scenario with strong economics and significant upside through a potential toll-milling option utilizing excess capacity at the nearby Premier mill. The base case DSO project delivers an after-tax NPV(5%) of $ 215.8-$668.3 million at gold prices of US$2,600-$4,200/oz, respectively.

Under the toll-milling scenario, project economics improve substantially, with an after-tax NPV(5%) of $380.1-$831.7 million (no agreement currently in place). The PEA estimates initial capital costs of $128.6 million, average annual production of ~65,400 oz gold over seven years, and a payback period of 1.7 years for the after-tax DSO case-reduced to just 0.9 years under the toll-milling opportunity at US$2,600/oz.
