Conquest Resources Initiates 2026 Exploration Program at the Valimaki GOLD Project, Finland
NEWS RELEASE
CONQUEST RESOURCES INITIATES 2026 EXPLORATION PROGRAM AT THE
VALIMAKI GOLD PROJECT, FINLAND
Toronto, Ontario –March 10, 2026 – Conquest Resources Limited (“Conquest” or the “Company”)
(TSX-V: CQR) is pleased to announce the initiation of its 2026 exploration program at the Valimaki
Gold Project in southwestern Finland. The program is designed to systematically advance the project
through high-resolution geophysics, geological mapping, prospecting, and glacial till sampling with
the objective of refining exploration targets and advancing the project toward drill testing.
Program Highlights
• High-resolution UAV magnetic survey covering approximately 86 km²
• Geological mapping across prospective areas of the project
• Prospecting and rock sampling across prioritized target areas
• Regional and detailed glacial till sampling program
The exploration program will begin with a high-resolution UAV magnetic survey designed to improve
the understanding of the structures and lithological contacts of the project area. The survey will cover
approximately 86 km².
Following completion of the airborne survey, the Company plans to undertake geological mapping
across a 15 kilometer trend defined by an extensive train of gold -rich boulders. Within the boulder
train, historic sampling has produced >150 boulders with assa ys greater than 1 g/t Au, with assays
as high as 60 g/t Au. Mapping will focus on defining lithological contacts, structural controls, and
alteration which may be associated with gold mineralization. Additionally, drill core will be reviewed
from the Finnish national drill core archive to gain a better understanding of the known mineralization
within the Valimaki project area.
Prospecting and rock sampling will be conducted across prioritized target areas based on historic
high grade Au boulder samples, glacial till geochemistry anomalies and any additional prospective
areas identified during the geologic mapping.
The exploration program will also include a regional glacial till sampling campaign with tighter
sample spacing across areas associated with historic gold rich boulder occurrences, previous
drilling, and till anomalies.
The UAV magnetic survey will take place during mid-to-late March. Subsequent geological mapping,
prospecting, and glacial till sampling programs will be conducted during April and May 2026.

exploring for base metals and gold on mineral properties in Ontario.
Conquest holds a 100% interest in the Belfast -TeckMag Project, located in the Temagami Mining
Camp at Emerald Lake, Ontario, which is believed to have exceptional exploration upside for
magmatic sulphide deposits (Cu -Ni-PGE), VMS, IOCG, Iron formation host ed Au and Paleo -placer
Au.
The Belfast -TeckMag Project is the Company’s flagship property, evolved from the Golden Rose
Project, which was initially acquired in December 2017, and significantly augmented through the
acquisition of Canadian Continental Exploration Corp. (“CCEC”) in 2020 and subsequent additional
claim staking and purchases in its adjacent Belfast Copper Property and TeckMag Property.
Conquest now controls over 300 square kilometers of underexplored territory in the Temagami
Mining Camp, including the past producing Golden Rose Mine at Emerald Lake.
Conquest also holds a 100% interest in the Alexander Gold Property located immediately east of the
Red Lake and Campbell mines in the heart of the Red Lake Gold Camp along the important “Mine
Trend” regional structure. Conquest’s property is almost entirel y surrounded by Evolution Mining
landholdings.
In addition, the Company holds interests in the Smith Lake Gold Property.
