CONQUEST RESOURCES SIGNS LOI TO ACQUIRE THE VALIMAKI
GOLD PROJECT IN FINLAND
December 3, 2025 – Toronto, Ontario, Conquest Resources Limited (“Conquest” or the
“Company”) (TSX-V: CQR) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Letter of Intent
(“LOI”) to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Carrigel Ltd. on November 27, 2025, a
private company incorporated in Ireland, which owns a 100% interest in the Valimaki Gold Project
in Finland.
The Valimaki Gold Project is comprised of a 23,197 hectare Exploration Reservation located in
southern Finland which contains a 15 kilometer trend that has an extensive train of gold- rich
boulders. Within the boulder train, historic sampling has produced > 150 boulders with assays
greater than 1 g/t Au, with assays as high as 60 g/t Au.

Tom Obradovich, CEO of Conquest, comments, “We are excited to begin exploration on the Valimaki
Gold Project which has had limited modern exploration geophysics or detailed mapping. We have
engaged an experienced team of geologists and geophysical contractors to begin establishing drill
targets in e arly spring of 2026. Drill testing is planned for late summer and fall when the required
permitting is in place .”

magnetics defines regional folds that trend parallel to stratigraphy in the northeast direction. The Kynsikangas and
Kankaanpaa Shear Zones are clearly visible as major magnetic breaks.
ABOUT THE VALIMAKI GOLD PROJECT
The Valimaki Gold Project is located to the east of Pori, a regional industrial city, in southwestern
Finland. The Project area has excellent infrastructure and can be accessed year-round.
The Project is located within the Svencofennian geologic domain within supracrustal rocks that are
located between two major structural features; to the southwest, the Kynsikangas Shear Zone, and
to the northeast, the Kankaanpää Shear Zone. Both major structures trend NW-SE while stratigraphy
and fold axes between the structures trend northeast. Gold mineralization is hosted in amphibolite-
grade sedimentary, volcanic, and intrusive rocks, with a strong association with arsenopyrite and
quartz veining. Au is also associated with Sb-Te-Bi-W-Ag, which is typical of orogenic gold deposits.
Gold was originally found in the 1950s by Outukumpu Oy who explored the area intermittently during
the 1950s and 1980s. Geologian Tutkimuskeskus (GTK) conducted multiple exploration programs
during the 1980s to 2010s which included till geochemistry, heavy mineral concentrates, magnetics,
and a total of ~2,800 meters of diamond drilling. Best intersects include 4.3 meters at 7.2 g/t (GTK
Report 75/2016 - Ore potential of the Kullaa zone, Saarijärvi and Kultakallio Au mineralizations) and
7 meters at 3.9 g/t Au (R309, GTK report M06/1143/2006/10/1 – Research Report on ore exploration
in the Municipality of Kullaa, In the Authority of Valimaki, Mining Register No. 7101/1).
Many of the auriferous boulders were discovered by local prospectors and analyzed through GTK’s
Citizen’s Sampling Program (GTK Mineral Deposit Report Valimaki
https://tupa.gtk.fi/karttasovellus/mdae/raportti/450_V%C3%A4lim%C3%A4ki.pdf where local
prospectors can send samples to GTK for analysis and receive a reward if they lead to a new
exploration target.

deposits (Cu-Ni-PGE), VMS, IOCG, Iron formation hosted Au and Paleo-placer Au.
The Belfast-TeckMag Project is the Company’s flagship property, evolved from the Golden Rose Project,
which was initially acquired in December 2017, and significantly augmented through the acquisition of
Canadian Continental Exploration Corp. (“CCEC”) in 2020 and subsequent additional claim staking and
purchases in its adjacent Belfast Copper Property and TeckMag Property.
Conquest now controls over 300 square kilometers of underexplored territory in the Temagami Mining
Camp, including the past producing Golden Rose Mine at Emerald Lake.
Conquest also holds a 100% interest in the Alexander Gold Property located immediately east of the Red
Lake and Campbell mines in the heart of the Red Lake Gold Camp along the important “Mine Trend”
regional structure. Conquest’s property is almost entirely surrounded by Evolution Mining landholdings.
In addition, the Company holds interests in the Smith Lake Gold Property and Lake Nipigon Basin
Property.
