Falco Commences Broad Exploration Program Across the Noranda CAMP

Exploration Programs

For Immediate Release TSX.V - FPC

FALCO COMMENCES BROAD EXPLORATION PROGRAM

ACROSS THE NORANDA CAMP

MONTRÉAL, November 5 , 2025 - Falco Resources Ltd. (TSX -V:FPC) (“Falco” or the

“Corporation”) is pleased to announce that it will begin a major exploration initiative across its

significant holdings within the world -class Noranda Mining Camp (the “ Noranda Camp”), which

is located in the region of Abitibi, Québec, starting with an Airborne Gravity Gradiometry (“AGG”)

survey (the “Survey”) over the next month. The Survey, a first for the region, will be utilized to

identify new near surface Volcanogenic Massive Sul fide (“ VMS”) type deposits. Falco is the

largest claim holder in the Noranda Camp where over 19.0 Moz of gold equivalent was previously

mined.

Luc Lessard, President and CEO of Falco, commented: “ While the Horne 5 Project remains the

Corporation's primary focus, Falco is unique among peers as few, if any, gold exploration

companies hold such a significant position in a world- class mining camp. With this modern

exploration technology, we believe this survey offers an unprecedented opportunity to generate

new discoveries in the Noranda Camp. The scale of the Noranda Camp and the prevalence of

favorable geological formations to VMS mineralization was historically overwhelming for previous

operators. Combining this new exploration approac h with our extensive compilation of historical

data, the potential to identify more VMS type deposits in the periphery of the Horne 5 Project

Complex is very compelling.”

The Survey will be operated by Xcalibur MPH (Canada) Ltd. using their Falcon system known as

FALCON fixed-wing AGG with a high-density grid of 100-meter line spacing providing exceptional

resolution for detailed mapping. The Survey will be flown over 280 square kilometers across the

majority of the Corporation’s land package , including the Noranda C amp, which includes 13

former mining sites for gold and base metals (see Figure below).

AGG surveys measure the change in density between the lighter host rock and denser sulfide

mineralization. This sharp density contrast should be well identified by the S urvey. Importantly,

the majority of the rhyolitic units remain untested due to the scale of the property. Combined with

the high-density contrast and expected shallow depths of mineralization, the S urvey will provide

an unprecedented opportunity to identify new VMS type targets at the Noranda Camp.

Results from the Survey are expected to be received for analysis in December 2025 and will

complement the mining camp-scale digital compilation and geological reinterpretation of historical

data. The integration of high- precision topographic data from the government -managed LIDAR

survey will help define the structural c ontrols associated with the distribution of high- grade

mineralization. Consequently, the Corporation will define priority exploration targets in brownfield

sites, with potential drilling to be determined based on the merit of the identified targets.

Stock Option Grant

The Corporation’s Board of Directors approved the grant of incentive stock options (the “Options”)

to key employees, officers , special advisors and directors to purchase up to an aggregate of

9,950,000 common shares of the Corporation (“Common Shares”). The Options are subject to a

three-year vesting period and a five-year term. The Options are exercisable at an exercise price

of $0.33 per Common Share being the closing price of the Common Shares on the TSX Venture

Exchange on November 4, 2025.

Qualified Person

The scientific and technical information related to this press release has been reviewed and

About Falco

Falco is one of the largest mineral claim holders in the province of Québec, with an extensive

portfolio of properties in the Abitibi -Témiscamingue greenstone belt. Falco holds rights to

approximately 63,000 hectares of land in the Noranda Camp, which represents 63% of the camp

as a whole and includes 13 former gold and base metal mining sites. Falco’s main asset is the

Horne 5 project located beneath the former Horne mine, which was operated by Noranda from

1927 to 1976 and produced 11.6 million ounces of gold and 2.5 billion pounds of copper. Osisko

Development Corp. is Falco’s largest shareholder, with an approximate 16% interest in the

Corporation.
