Bold Ventures Commences Diamond Drilling

Program at Burchell Base and Precious Metals

Project

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 12, 2026) - Bold Ventures Inc. (

TSXV: BOL

) (the

"

Company

" or "

Bold

") is pleased to announce that it has commenced a diamond drilling program on its

Burchell Base and Precious Metals Project ("

Burchell

", the "

Project

" or the "

Property

"), located

approximately 100 km west of Thunder Bay, Ontario.

The program is expected to exceed 1000 meters of drilling, which will firstly test the 111 Zone and other

nearby targets which were the focus of a mechanical stripping program last fall. A 14-meter wide

discontinuous anomalous gold zone was identified at the 111 Zone adjacent to a 15-meter wide

discontinuous anomalous zinc-copper zone (see Bold news release dated

December 2, 2025

). One

grab sample at the 111 Zone previously returned 68 g/t Au (see Bold news release dated

January 9,

2025

). Drilling is also planned to test the northwest corner of the Property where the Moss Trend is

interpreted to pass through and where 2024-2025 soil sampling yielded significant Au, Mo and Cu

anomalies (see Bold news release dated

July 21, 2025

); as well as the Hermia Cu-Au Prospect in the

western part of the Property where historical drilling intersected broad anomalous copper zones (see

Burchell Gold Review

on Bold website and Bold December 2025

Corporate Presentation

for more

information).

Drilling is being carried out by Rugged Aviation Inc. based in Murillo, Ontario.

Bruce MacLachlan, President and COO of Bold, stated: "We are beyond excited to get started on Bold's

maiden drill program on the Burchell Property, which will test major under-explored gold and base metal

trends on which many targets, to the best of our knowledge, have never been drilled."

Bold Ventures management believes our suite of Battery, Critical and Precious Metals

exploration projects are an ideal combination of exploration potential meeting future demand

.
