FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ashley Gold Corp. Provides Updates on Phase 2 Tak Drilling and Prospecting

Activities, Dryden Area, Ontario

CALGARY, ALBERTA - June 3, 2026 - Ashley Gold Corp. (CSE: “ASHL”) (“Ashley” or the

“Company”) is pleased to provide a status update in regards to ongoing activities.

Highlights:

- Three holes from Phase 1 remain pending, with assays expected shortly,

- Two holes of Phase 2 program completed,

- Located undocumented outcrop south of the 67Z, proposed hole planned,

- Thirty-two samples from prospecting submitted to ActLabs Dryden for fire assay.

President Noah Komavli:

“The final assays of our Phase 1 program are expected in short order, with prospecting along historically

worked trenches revealing strong potential outside of the main resistive trend currently being drilled. It

is important to note that there is no record of these trenches ever being drill tested. With that in mind, the

North Trench Zone (“NTZ”) is emerging as a potential shear associated structure running parallel to the

resistive body on the North side of main chargeability anomaly. Grab sample assays will determine

drilling allocations in the near future. Additionally, a LIDAR survey is being considered to highlight any

features that remain under cover and simultaneously produce a highly accurate digital elevation model

(DEM). The trenches in the NTZ are up to 2 m deep in some locations, 60 m long and up to 2 m wide.

This impressive scale showcases the lengths that prior operators in 1940 and 1980 were willing to go to

assess the structures on the Tak.”

Phase 2 - TAK-26-06

The first hole of the Phase 2 program was collared between the 99Z and 67Z zones, targeting historic

trenches 18 and 19 at depth. The hole reached its planned depth of 122 m and was successful in

intercepting target mineralization. Further updates will be provided when core logging and cutting for

Phase 2 begins.

Drill Planning and Prospecting Update

Looking West

Prospecting south of the 67Z has uncovered an outcrop that was undocumented in the historic Tak maps.

With current drilling focused in the area, the Company has proposed a third hole on IP line 250, backing

away 75 meters to the South and drilling North. This planned hole has the ability to test recently

identified surface mineralization as well as the width and depth of the 67Z - coinciding with a strong

gold index. As previously stated, drill plans remain subject to a variety of conditions, including assays

from Phase 1, visual indicators from Phase 2, as well as active prospecting.

Exploration around the Northern Trench Zone (“NTZ”) has revealed compelling features, with

interesting example mineralization. 32 samples have been collected and submitted to ActLabs Dryden

for fire assay.
