BEAUCE GOLD FIELDS SIGNIFICANTLY EXPANDS EXPLORATION TARGET
OF THE SAINT-SIMON-LES-MINES PALEOPLACER CHANNEL
Beauce Gold Fields (Champs D’Or en Beauce) (TSX Venture: "BGF"), referred to as "BGF" or the
"Company," is pleased to announce the results of a comprehensive technical assessment of its flagship
Saint-Simon-les-Mines placer gold property located in the Beauce region of southern Quebec. The report
incorporates newly recovered historical drill data, high-resolution lidar mapping, and reinterpretation of
stratigraphic and structural models to significantly expand the Company’s gold exploration target.
Gold Exploration Target Doubled from Previous Estimate
The updated 2025 polygonal-based model defines an Exploration Target ranging between:
3.86 million m³ @ 0.81 g Au/m³ to
3.86 million m³ @ 4.9 g Au/m³, including nugget effect.
This represents a near doubling of the previous 2015 target, which estimated a range of 2,200,000 m3 @
0.87g Au/m3 and 2,200,000 m3 @ 5.22 g Au/m3 (Source Sedar: 43-101 Report – Beauce, July 4 th 2018,
Author B. Violette) . The new estimates are grounded in historical drilling by Beauce Placer Co. (1958–
1960), Coniagas Resources (1985), Ressources Macamic (1987–88), and BGF (2021), now georeferenced
and integrated with lidar-derived paleo-valley reconstructions. BGF rediscovered over 344 original drill
logs and cross sections from Beauce Placer Co. 1958-1959 churn drilling (BGF press release January 11,
2021), which had not been used in any prior modern assessment. These documents were instrumental in
reconstructing five detailed 1:1,000 scale relief maps of the paleo valley and refining exploration polygons.
The updated report titled (in French), Rapport technique sur les cibles d’exploration aurifère du canal
paleoplacer de Saint-Simon-les-Mines, Aout 2025, by Jean Bernard, géo, an independent Qualified Person
(QP) under National Instrument 43-101, will be deposited on Sedar.
The Exploration Target mentioned is conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to define
a mineral resource, and there can be no assurance that further exploration will result in the definition of
such a resource.
Key Geological Highlights
Two auriferous host units confirmed: a saprolitic altered bedrock horizon and an underlying
brown glacial diamicton, both enriched in visible coarse gold.
New mapping delineates three tributary-fed deltaic targets along the Gilbert River
paleochannel, suggesting significant upstream gold input.
Structural interpretation reveals multiple antiform "Saddle Reef"-style folds associated with
quartz veining and gold-bearing stockwork believed to be the source of the placers.
Patrick Levasseur, President and CEO of Beauce Gold Fields, stated: “This is the most comprehensive
geological review of the Saint-Simon-les-Mines placer channel since the 1960s. By integrating historic and
modern data, we have improved the definition, volume, and grade confidence of the placer system, which
now clearly exceeds half a million ounces potential with strong indications of proximity to bedrock lode
sources.” Mr. Levasseur further stated , “This report validates that the Gilbert River paleoplacer system
has been historically underestimated. With this new target, we are not only reviving a legacy gold district
but elevating its potential to a modern exploration success story.”
The Company intends to apply for an ATI Authorization from Quebec’s Ministry of Natural
Resources (MRNF) for “impact exploration work” which is valid for a period of two years for the
proposed exploration activities:
Expand its 2025 sonic drill program to test unverified deltaic extensions;
Pursue bulk sampling across high-priority polygons identified in the report;
Continue geometallurgical and nugget-effect characterization studies;
The technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Jean Bernard, géo,
an independent Qualified Person (QP) under National Instrument 43-101.

About Beauce Gold Fields
Beauce Gold Fields is focused on exploring and developing the largest placer gold district in eastern North
America. The Company’s objective is the trace old placer gold workings back to a bedrock source to
uncover economic lode gold deposits. The Company’s flagship property is the Saint-Simon-les-Mines gold
project, site of Canada’s first gold rush that pre-dates the Yukon Klondike. The Beauce region hosted
some of the largest historical placer gold mines in Eastern North America that were active from 1860s to
the 1960s It produced some of the largest gold nuggets in Canadian mining history (50oz+). (Source Sedar:

Beauce Gold Fields is currently drilling recently discovered antiform systems that is believed to have
contributed to the development of extensive auriferous placer deposits in Beauce. The Company’s
geological model suggests that placer gold within the Beauce Gold paleochannel, including the renowned
large nuggets from the 19th century, formed in stressed quartz pockets within layered domed Axis of
Antiforms, exemplified by Saddle Reef formations. Notable global Saddle Reef formations include
the Bendigo gold fields in Australia (over 60 million ounces) and the high-grade Dufferin deposit in Nova
Scotia.
