FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ashley Gold Corp. Concludes 2025 Fall Exploration on Gold Mountain, BC

CALGARY, ALBERTA - September 18, 2025 - Ashley Gold Corp. (CSE: “ASHL”) (“Ashley” or the

“Company”) is pleased to announce that it has concluded a fall exploration program at the company's

Gold Mountain Project, British Columbia.

Highlights:

- Sampled a south-east adit, as well as prospected the recently staked western claim block

- 15 grab samples collected for assay and analysis

President Noah Komavli on the exploration program;

“Working with the team at Dahrouge Geological Consulting Ltd. (“DGC”) is always a great experience.

They bring a level of enthusiasm and technical insight that matches our own drive for discovery at Ashley.

The additional data generated from this exploration effort will add depth to our knowledge of the Gold

Mountain system, particularly in the western claim block, which was unexplored.

I look forward to sharing results when they become available, as well as continuing to partner with the

DGC team to advance this project through the drilling permit process”.

About the Program

The helicopter-supported ground program was completed over two field days, with crews mobilized from

Golden, BC. Work focused on revisiting and validating mineralized zones documented by previous

operators in 2020 –2021 and on evaluating mineral claims acqu ired in 2024. Fifteen (15) grab samples

were collected. Assay results are pending and will inform planning of future, more advanced work at the

Gold Mountain Property.

About Gold Mountain

Gold Mountain is an early staged gold-silver project, located about 50 km northwest of Golden, British

Columbia. The project consists of four claims covering approximately 1,863 ha. Highlights include:

▪ North Showing: Grab sample returned 4.87 g/t Au, 710 g/t Ag, and 1.89% Cu (Allen, 1982)

▪ South Showing: Peak values of 30.3 g/t Au, 13,301 g/t Ag, and 32.54% Cu (Allen, 1982)

o 1984 Drilling (Parr, 1984): Notable intervals include:

▪ 4.14 m - 57.62 g/t Au, 7,349.5 g/t Ag, 16.5% Cu, and 8.74% Pb (Drillhole A)

▪ 4.85 m - 29.99 g/t Au, 6,711.3 g/t Ag, 11.0% Cu, and 14.53% Pb (Drillhole B)

o 2020-2021 Exploration: A Ag-Au-Pb-Zn-Cu-Sb mineralized system at Gold Mountain

identified (see January 13, 2021 and January 4, 2022 news releases)

▪ Five samples returning 1,000 to 6,670 g/t Ag

▪ Eight samples returning 1,260 to 8,220 ppm Sb

The Property’s mineral -rich history dates back to the 1930s and includes impressive showings of gold,

silver, copper, and lead within a trend that spans over 600 meters. Past work has revealed high -grade

values across two primary showings, North and South, which are separated by approximately 450 meters

of talus —a zone where mineralized boulders suggest continuity of mineralization between the two

showings.

The South Showing covers an area of 160 by 50 meters and features five vein exposures in multiple

trenches, where high-grade mineralization has previously been sampled, including values up to 30.3 g/t

Au, 13,301 g/t Ag and 32.54% Cu (Allen, 1982). These veins trend toward the North Showing, which

has been partially exposed by a shallow open cut and an old adit. Exploration during 1982 at the North

Showing, near the adit, identified a 1 m wide quartz vein, which returned a grab sample of 4.87 g/t Au,

710 g/t Ag and 1.89% Cu indicating a rich polymetallic presence (Allen, 1982). Together, these showings

form a mineralized corridor that remains open at both ends.

Eight shallow backpack style drill holes were completed in 1984 (Parr, 1984), though poor recoveries

were noted, results include:

• 4.14 m – 57.62 g/t Au, 7,349.5 g/t Ag, 16.5% Cu, and 8.74% Pb

• 4.85 m – 29.99 g/t Au, 6,711.3 g/t Ag, 11% Cu, and 14.53% Pb

Samples collected in 2020 and 2021 confirmed the high-grade mineralization at both the North and South

Showings, with five samples returning from 1,000 to 6,670 g/t Ag, and eight samples returning from 1,260

to 8,220 ppm Sb.

Recent claim additions opened a path for expanded exploration aimed at uncovering the full extent of

mineralization along this trend.

Quality Assurance / Quality Control

All samples were collected in the field using a hammer and chisel. Locations were obtained using a

handheld GPS or tablet with samples placed in pre -labelled sample bags. Flagging tape with sample

numbers were left at each sample location. Samples were sec urely transported by field staff to AGAT

Laboratories in Calgary, Ab in for standard sample preparation which includes drying, crush to 75%

passing 2mm, riffle split 250 g, and pulverize 85% passing 75 microns. Samples will be analyzed by multi-

element by 4-acid digestion with ICP-OES finish (Method 201070) and gold by 30 g fire assay with AA

finish (Method 202051); over-limits will be re-assayed using appropriate high-grade protocols.

A Quality Assurance/Quality Control protocol was incorporated into the rock sampling program and

included the insertion of two quartz blanks representing approximately 11% of submitted samples.

NI 43-101 Disclosure

The technical information in this news release was prepared and/or reviewed by Nathan Schmidt., P.Geo.,

a Qualified Person as defined in National Instrument 43-101. Mr. Schmidt is registered as a Professional

Geological Consulting Ltd. (Permit to Practice #1003035).

Some results discussed in this document are historical. Ashley Gold Corp. nor the qualified person have

performed sufficient work or data verification of the historical data. Historical Ag and Au results from

Gold Mountain were presented in original docume ntation as troy oz/short ton and were converted to g/t

using conversion of 34.28. Although the historical results may not be reliable, the Company nevertheless

believes that they provide an indication of the Project's potential and are relevant for any future exploration

program.

Management cautions that grab samples are selective in nature, and the assay results may not necessarily

represent true underlying mineralization.
