American Pacific Completes Radiometric Survey

at Madison Copper-Gold Project in Montana

Vancouver, British Columbia / September 10, 2024 – American Pacific Mining Corp (CSE: USGD / OTCQX:

USGDF / FWB: 1QC) (“American Pacific” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has completed

a radiometric survey at its 100%-owned Madison Copper-Gold Project in Montana.

The survey covered a total of 462 line kilometers of drone flight, running both east-west and north-south

with 25-metre spacing to cover the property as part of the 2024 exploration program.

The use of radiometric technology is a unique and novel approach to skarn/porphyry exploration, and has

the ability to identify potassium anomalies, which are essential to porphyry formation. The data collected

from the survey is currently being interpreted and will provide valuation information for the planning of

a larger Phase III regional exploration program.

“The use of radiometric technology is relatively common in uranium exploration; however, it’s rarely been

used in copper and gold skarn and porphyry exploration,” commented Managing Director of Exploration,

Eric Saderholm. “Surveying these muted or limited surface uranium expressions will give us a valuable

regional targeting tool that mapping si mply cannot. Additionally, this survey identifies potassium

anomalies that often indicate potassic alteration, a style of potassium enrichment widely known to be

essential to copper and gold porphyry emplacement and will further enhance our understanding of the

property-wide geology and the refinement of regional targeting.”

The historic documentation of uraninite within the Madison Skarn mineralization, lead the Company’s

geological team to evaluate uranium in relation to gold and copper within the geochemical multi-element

data. Data pointed to a strong correlation between copper and uranium in the skarn minerals resulting

in the commissioning of a radiometric survey of the property to identify uranium exposures and anomalies
