FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Ashley Gold Corp. Announces Operational Readiness for Tak Drilling, Engages
Abitibi Geophysics for IP Survey on Tak Patents, Crew to Mobilize February 16th
CALGARY, ALBERTA - February 10, 2026 - Ashley Gold Corp. (CSE: “ASHL”) (“Ashley” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce that Abitibi Geophysics’ 3D OreVision will be deployed over the
Tak Patents.
President Noah Komavli on the update;
“Ashley is in a state of operational readiness for the largest drill campaign in company history. We are
moving quickly to secure data needed for deep drilling, step outs and target selection. OreVision is a
system that works well in the Dryden area, and case studies have proven its effectiveness on QFP bodies
elsewhere in Canada.
This will be the first modern survey ever conducted on the patented ground, I am excited to receive and
execute on results.
On successful close of our offering, we will mobilize a drilling crew to site, with contractor selection
already completed. The first priority will be to twin the historic zones, bringing historic holes into
compliance. Data from the IP survey will then support next steps.
The Company has elected to keep the majority of costs in-house; securing and retrofitting two shipping
containers for mobile core cutting and logging sites. A Husqvarna MS-610 core saw and diamond blades
have also been procured, ready for installation and subsequent cutting later in February.”
OreVision Applied to the Tak Patents:
Applying OreVision IP surveys to the Tak Patents could significantly enhance exploration efforts by
leveraging its strengths in 3D modeling and deep resolution:
● Tracing Mineralization Extent: Similar to the Goldboro Project case study, OreVision's 3D
chargeability and resistivity models could map the QFP body's boundaries and associated
alteration zones. Chargeability anomalies would highlight sulfide-rich areas often linked to gold
mineralization in orogenic systems, while resistivity data could identify silicified or conductive
overburden features, revealing hidden extensions or superimposed targets.
● Overcoming Geological Challenges: The Dryden area's potential conductive overburden and
rough topography make conventional IP less effective. OreVision's multi-electrode setup and
noise-reduced cable would provide high-resolution data through these layers, detecting deeper
responses (e.g., beyond historic shallow intercepts) without losing detail on near-surface high-
grade zones.
● Drill Target Optimization: With thorough QA/QC and 3D inversions, the survey could
generate accurate, untested drill targets. For instance, it could delineate the 1.5 km corridor's full

potential, identifying priority areas for Ashley Gold's planned drilling program (as announced in
early 2026 financing updates). This aligns with the company's focus on aggressive delineation,
potentially accelerating resource definition.
● Cost-Effective Integration: At a cost comparable to traditional surveys, OreVision could be
paired with follow-up borehole IP for deeper validation between drill holes, expanding
investigation volumes. Given the property's historical significance and proximity to established
gold complexes, this could uncover major anomalies missed by prior conventional methods and
show the full extent of known zones.
