Fancamp Reports Results of Prospecting and Soil Geochemical Survey
at New Brunswick Acadian Gold and Announces Imminent Drill Program
VANCOUVER, British Columbia – September 9, 2025 - Fancamp Exploration Ltd. (“Fancamp” or
the “ Company”) (TSX Venture Exchange: FNC) is pleased to announce prospecting and soil
geochemical exploration results of an exploration program conducted by Acadian Gold, a joint venture
with Lode Gold Resources Inc. for the advancement of a district scale, 445 km² land package located
in a highly prospective region for gold and polymetallic mineral discovery, in northern New Brunswick.
Acadian Gold is one of the largest under-explored holdings in this emerging gold camp, with two key
properties; McIntyre Brook, adjacent to Puma Exploration’s Williams Brook Project (which holds an
option agreement with Kinross Gold), and Riley Brook, a significantly sized property surrounded by
recent claims acquisitions made by Kenorland Minerals. Based on recent results, McIntyre Brook now
demonstrates all the hallmarks of a significant gold -copper discovery opportunity , displaying
highly encouraging results across three principal target areas, which guide the upcoming drill program
planned for Fall 2025.
Prospecting and Soil Geochemical Exploration Highlights
• A prospecting and trenching program conducted in May-June 2025, followed by a soil geochemical
survey in July 2025, resulted in the discovery of high-grade rock grab samples extending the known
favourable horizon of Area 2 (McIntyre Brook Prospect) to a minimum strike extension of 3 km
(Figure 1).
• These recent encouraging results, coupled with the previously announced results of the 2024
exploration program ( Heliborne HeliTEM² survey, prospecting, soil surveys etc.) , directs the
planned drill program to be conducted in the Fall.
• Best results from the prospecting surveys include high-grade gold assays from grab samples of up
to 7 g/t Au (Figure 2).
• The best assays from selected grab samples from the trenching program show results of up to 6.1
g/t Au and 6.95 g/t Au in trench T25-1 (Figure 2).
• The soil geochemical survey, conducted to fill in over area not previously covered, continue to
prove to be an excellent field vectors to pursue more advance work in this environment.
• As previously reported (refer to press release dated March 3, 2025) the area of Zone 1 is also
characterized by a 275 ppb Au stream sediment downstream from the conductive area. This
sample was the highest value returned from the 1981 regional stream sampling program conducted
in the area by the Geological Surveys Branch of New Brunswick.

The results of the ongoing exploration program, centered over the 3 principal showings identified at
McIntyre Brook (Figure 1), through a comprehensive review of historical data and recent exploration
work (refer to press releases dated March 3, 2025, January 20, 2025, and October 18, 2024),
confirm the prospectivity for gold mineralization of the (1) Electromagnetic Anomaly (EM) Zone,
(2) McIntyre Brook Prospect and (3) the Northwest Area. The Northwest Area of McIntyre Brook is
an area of substantial interest given its location lies on strike with Puma Exploration’s Williams Brook
Lynx showing which reported high -grade results such as 5.50 g/t gold over 50.15 metres (refer to
hole WB21-02 from Puma Exploration press release dated September 15, 2021) . Previous notable
findings from the Acadian Gold exploration program at McIntyre Brook, as a result of trenching and
chip channel sampling, confirmed a gold bearing rhyolitic horizon with a strike extension of at least
200-metres with up to 9 -metre thickness, significantly increasing the known surface expression of
mineralization previously identified by historical drilling (refer to press release dated January 20,
2025).
These new results from McIntyre Brook which reveal coincident high-grade rock grab samples,
gold-in-soil anomalies and prominent electromagnetic conductors , significantly enhanc e the
potential for a significant gold-copper discovery. These promising targets are situated within the
geologically favorable Wapske Formation, structurally defined by the McIntyre Brook and Ramsay
Brook faults.
“The latest results from McIntyre Brook confirm the exceptional potential of Acadian Gold,” stated
François Auclair, VP Exploration of Fancamp Exploration, “The combination of high -grade assays
from grab and chip samples, coincident gold -in-soil anomalies, and strong electromagnetic
conductors along a 3-kilometre strike length all point to a robust mineraliz ed system. These results
provide clear vectors for our upcoming drill program, which is designed to systematically test these
priority targets and advance McIntyre Brook toward a significant gold-copper discovery.”

New Brunswick, Acadian Gold Joint Venture: A joint initiative between Fancamp Exploration Ltd.
and Lode Gold Resources Inc. for the advancement and exploration of significantly sized, well-located
and under-explored mineral assets in New Brunswick, 'Acadian Gold Corp.’ This 50/50 joint venture
is located in a highly prospective region for gold and polymetallic mineral discovery, a geologic domain
that hosts other gold-focused firms such as Calibre Mining and New Found Gold . The Acadian Gold
joint venture includes the Riley Brook property, a 334.5 km2 land package of mineral claims and 111
km2 of McIntyre Brook mineral claims, combined to create a dominant land holding on an orogenic
belt where other major developers are established and host certain world-class deposits. The Acadian
Gold joint venture is positioned from a strategic perspective as a key player in the region, and holds
the potential to become an emerging, district-scale, Au-Cu exploration play with upside potential from
a major discovery (refer to press releases dated August 27, 2024 and October 9, 2024).
