HARFANG ANNOUNCES NEW PARTNERSHIP
WITH FANCAMP TO ADVANCE THE EGAN PROJECT
MONTREAL, November 12, 2025 - Harfang Exploration Inc. (TSX.V: HAR) (“Harfang”) announced today that it
has signed a Definitive Option Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Fancamp Exploration Ltd. (TSX.V: FNC)
(“Fancamp”) to advance exploration at Harfang’s wholly-owned Egan Project (the “Project”), strategically
located within Ontario’s Abitibi Greenstone Belt (see Figure 1). The Agreement outlines the terms and
conditions under which, subject to standard regulatory approvals, Fancamp may earn up to an 80% interest in
the Project. All amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars.
HIGHLIGHTS
§ Fancamp may earn an initial 40% undivided interest in Egan, with Harfang retaining 60%; Fancamp will
act as the operator.
§ Following the initial earn-in, Harfang will have the option to convert the second option to a 51% / 49%
joint venture in favor of Fancamp.
§ If Harfang does not convert the second option, Fancamp may earn an additional 40% interest, for a total
of 80%, with Harfang retaining 20%; Fancamp will remain the operator.
§ To earn an 80% interest, Fancamp will fund $4,000,000 in exploration expenditures at Egan over a four-
year period and make cash and share payments to Harfang totaling a minimum of $100,000 and up to
$200,000 over three years.
Rick Breger, President and CEO of Harfang, commented, “Egan is the latest project that reflects our strategy
of advancing quality assets through smart partnerships that deliver results in the field and value for our
shareholders. This agreement builds momentum and gives us the flexibility to ramp up exploration and test the
high-potential targets that Harfang and Fancamp believe could lead to a significant gold discovery. A high -
resolution magnetic survey is planned for this fall, with fieldwork set to resume as soon as the snow melts in the
spring. We’re eager to see what the next phase of exploration reveals.”
Agreement Terms and Conditions
Under the terms of the Agreement, Fancamp will initially have the option to earn a 40% undivided interest in
the Project over a two-year period beginning on the Effective Date (the “First Option”). Following the
completion of the First Option, and upon Fancam’s election to proceed with the second option, Harfang may
elect to convert Fancamp’s remaining obligations to a 51% / 49% joint venture in favor of Fancamp (the
“Harfang Option”).
If Harfang does not exercise the Harfang Option, Fancamp may then earn an additional 40% interest (for a total
of 80%) under the “Second Option.” The Companies will form a technical committee to consider and review
programs and budgets, and Fancamp will remain the operator throughout the duration of the Agreement.
The Agreement remains subject to regulatory approvals; the date on which the TSX Venture Exchange (the
“TSXV”) will grant a final approval of the transactions contemplated under the Agreement will be the “Effective
Date” thereunder.
To exercise the First Option, Fancamp must:
- Fund exploration expenditures totaling $1,500,000 before the second anniversary of the Effective Date.
- Make payments to Harfang totaling $100,000, half in cash and half in Fancamp common shares (the
“Consideration Shares”), according to the following schedule:
o $50,000 on the Effective Date;
o $50,000 within five (5) business days of the first anniversary of the Effective Date.
Following Fancamp’s notice of election to proceed with the Second Option, Harfang will have 30 days to notify
Fancamp if it wishes to exercise the Harfang Option, resulting in a 51% / 49% joint venture in favour of Fancamp.
Should this occur, the Companies will proportionally fund $2,500,000 in exploration expenditures, after which
all additional exploration and development costs will be shared on a pro rata basis.
If Harfang does not exercise the Harfang Option, Fancamp may proceed with the Second Option by:
- Funding an additional $2,500,000 in exploration expenditures by the fourth anniversary of the Effective
Date.
- Making additional payments to Harfang totaling $100,000, half in cash and half in Consideration Shares
(the “Additional Consideration”), as follows:
o $50,000 within five (5) business days of Fancamp exercising the Second Option;
o $50,000 within five (5) business days of the third (3rd) anniversary of the Effective Date;
o the Additional Consideration is waived if the Harfang Option is exercised.
All Consideration Shares will be subject to applicable regulatory hold periods and be issued at the volume
weighted average trading price per share (“VWAP”) on the TSXV over a period of ten (10) trading days prior to
issuance, and subject to the minimum price per share permitted under the rules and policies of the TSXV at
such date.
About Egan
The Egan Project is a 100%-owned gold exploration project covering 449 claims totaling approximately 12,000
hectares in the heart of Ontario’s Abitibi Greenstone Belt. It is strategically located between the Timmins,
Kirkland Lake, and Matachewan gold camps— approximately 50 km east-southeast of Timmins and 50 km north
of Matachewan. The Project is easily accessible via paved and gravel roads, as well as recently constructed
logging roads. Certain claims are subject to a 2.0% NSR royalty.
Harfang acquired the Project in 2020 and, along with previous operators, completed comprehensive grassroots
programs, including LiDAR, high-resolution airborne magnetics, induced polarization geophysics, geological
mapping, prospecting, and soil and till sampling. This work has delineated four high-priority targets (see Figure
2):
§ E1 Zone: Quartz-ankerite stockwork with visible gold hosted in hematized syenite along a NE-trending
shear zone, with grab samples up to 105.0 g/t Au.
§ E1S Zone: Discovered from a gold-in-soil anomaly; grab samples up to 25.0 g/t Au from a hematized
syenite outcrop.
§ E2 Zone: Series of laminated quartz-carbonate veins in mafic volcanics, returning up to 19.3 g/t Au.
§ E3 Zone: Located 5 km south of E1, grab samples returned 44.7 g/t Au and 19.0 g/t Au from laminated
quartz-carbonate veins hosted in an ESE-trending shear zone in mafic volcanics.
Exploration to date has outlined multiple gold-bearing structural and lithologic targets associated with syenite
intrusions and volcanic contacts — geological settings analogous to those hosting major gold deposits
elsewhere in the Abitibi. Egan remains largely underexplored, offering strong potential for new high-grade gold
discoveries.
