Lodestar Metals eyes bulk-tonnage gold-silver at Gold Run, Nevada

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 5, 2026) - Lodestar Metals Corp. (TSXV: LSTR) (OTCQB: SVTNF) (FSE: PR90) ( "Lodestar" or the " Company "), an exploration company focused on unlocking world-class gold potential, reports assay results from the first six reverse-circulation ("RC") holes of its maiden 2,680m drill program at the flagship Gold Run project in Nevada. The initial 1,143 m of drilling at the Robbers Knob target identified multiple gold-silver mineralisation styles and strong bulk-tonnage potential.

Highlights:

Note: Assay intervals presented above are hole lengths; true widths are estimated to be 85-95%.

Three mineralisation styles demonstrated at Robbers Knob: broad, near-surface oxide gold-silver intercepts over 30-70 m, comparable to grades exploited in large open-pit, heap-leach operations in northern Nevada; high-grade gold-silver shoots/veins; and a deeper gold-silver polymetallic zone.

Detailed magnetics and IP data defined untested chargeability anomalies and northwest-trending structures that provide clear vectors for follow-up drilling.

Assays pending for 12 additional RC holes (1,537 m) across three priority targets: Gomes, Black Diamond and Crown North.

"These initial results from Robbers Knob validate our geological model and confirm a robust gold-silver system with both bulk-tonnage oxide mineralisation and structurally controlled higher-grade zones," said Lowell Kamin, President & CEO of Lodestar Metals. " We are particularly encouraged by the consistency across multiple holes and the clear vectors for potential expansion highlighted by our geophysical data. With additional assays pending across several targets, we believe this program marks an important step in defining the broader scale potential of the Gold Run project."
