Cassiar Gold Provides 2025 Exploration Campaign Update & Files New NI43-101
Technical Report on the Cassiar Gold Property
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA - September 9, 2025 – Cassiar Gold Corp. (TSX -V: GLDC ; OTCQX:
CGLCF) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce the filing of its independent National Instrument 43-101
technical report (“NI43-101 Report”) on its 100% owned flagship Cassiar Gold Property ("Property")
located in northern British Columbia, Canada, and an update on the 2025 exploration activities.
The NI43-101 Report , with an effective date of June 8 , 202 5, is titled “National Instrument 43 -101
Technical Report on the Cassiar Gold Property,” can be viewed on Cassiar Gold’s website and has been
filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+. The NI43-101 Report was authored by Scott Zelligan, P.Geo.
and Chantal Jolette, P.Geo., both whom are independent qualified persons in accordance with National
Instrument 43-101 and the companion Policy 43-101CP.
The 2025 season’s 7,000 m drill campaign is in progress; expanded beyond its initial 5,000 m scope.
o 5,211 m of drilling has been completed at the Cassiar North project area to-date, including:
▪ 2,080 m completed at the Taurus Deposit;
▪ 3,131 m completed at the Newcoast target; drilling remains in progress
o At the Newcoast target we have drilled our deepest hole to -date (720 m) with encouraging
visual observations including evidence of widespread hydrothermal alteration.
NI 43-101 report filing:
• The NI43-101 Report contains updated resources at a 0.4 g/t Au cutoff and USD$2,400/oz gold price
comprise:
o Indicated Mineral Resource: 8.8 Mt at 1.43 g/t Au for 410,000 ounces; with an additional
o Inferred Mineral Resource: 63.2 Mt at 0.95 g/t Au for 1.93 million ounces
• The updated mineral resource estimate extends from surface to a maximum pit depth of 307 m, with
91% of the resource occurring within 150 m of surface. This resource holds strong potential for
expansion in most directions with several areas of mineralization identified beyond the extent of the
current pit shell model and sparse drill data between mineralized areas.
“I am grateful for the tremendous efforts made by our technical team in completing this new pit -
constrained NI43-101-compliant technical report at the Taurus deposit,” stated Marco Roque, President
and Chief Executive Officer of Cassiar Gold. “ The new MRE outlines a n expanded, robust, near-surface,
pit-constrained asset with great access. We are now excited to complete our 7,000 m drill program across
the Cassiar Gold Property that will include drilling at the Taurus Deposit and Newcoast which we believe
to have a similar potential to Taurus.”
2025 Drill Program Overview
The Company’s 2025 drill campaign commenced on June 20 th and remains ongoing with drilling at the
Newcoast target in the Cassiar North project area. The program is progressing ahead of schedule with an
expanded scope and is projected to conclude in the fall. The program scope will consist of approximately
7,000 m over roughly 20 drill holes at the Cassiar North project area at both deposit -based and regional
targets within the 59,000 -hectare land package. To-date during the 2025 season , 5,211 m have been
completed over fifteen drill holes (Figure 1).

Cassiar North project area – Taurus Deposit
To-date a total of 9 drill holes totaling 2,080 metres have been completed at the Taurus Deposit in 2025.
Drilling at Taurus consists of a series of step -out holes designed to expand the deposit laterally beyond
the known mineralized footprint.
Cassiar North project area – Newcoast Target
A total of 3,131 m over six drill holes has been completed in 2025 at the Newcoast target, which is located
south of the Taurus Deposit near the Stewart-Cassiar Highway (Figure 1). The Newcoast prospect is host
to numerous gold -bearing quartz veins and mineralized showings over 4 km in east -west lateral extent
which has been explored previously by limited field work and sparse, widely spaced drilling, including nine
holes completed during Phase 1 and Phase 2 drill programs in 2023 and 2024, respectively (Figure 2). The
target area is situated along a 15 km northwest trend of past-producing gold deposits which include the
Taurus Deposit, prospects, and past -producing high -grade veins across the property. The trend is
associated with the development of gently dipping stacked shear zones between basal units that are host
to mineralization.

programs.
Drilling conducted at Newcoast in 2023 and 2024 encountered a broad series of sheeted quartz veins with
extensive alteration and disseminated sulphide mineralization similar to the Taurus deposit in multiple
drill holes, returning 141.4 m of 0.89 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) from 143.1 m downhole (see NEWS
RELEASE, January 22, 2025). This season’s drilling is designed to test continuity and expansion potential
of mineralization encountered during the 2023 and 2024 drill campaigns and field programs (see NEWS
RELEASE, April 16, 2025 ), as well as evaluate prospective chargeability anomalies identified in 2024
induced polarization survey results.
Preliminary highlights from this season’s Newcoast drilling completed to -date includes an extensive
network of alteration, quartz veining, and sulphide mineralization encountered in infill drill hole 25NC -
010 designed to test the continuity of mineralizati on within a 250 m wide gap in drill data from recent
exploration campaigns (Figure 3).
Figure 3. Drill core photos from drill hole 25NC -010 showing a broad intercept of high density narrow sheeted
veining hosted in sulphide-mineralized and altered mafic volcanic host rock. Assay results remain pending.
Another notable intercept - encountered in drill hole 25NC -013 - comprises a broad intercept of
intermittent quartz veining and pyrite mineralization hosted in altered mafic volcanic rocks at greater
depths than encountered in any previous drill hole at Newcoast (Figure 4), immediately overlying an
argillite unit at depth. Style is similar to parts of the Taurus deposit. This interval of sulphide-mineralized
quartz veining in basalt host, overlying deep water sediments, provides support for a regional
interpretation of stratigraphic repetition attributable to thrust stacking across the Cassiar Gold Property.
Elsewhere on the district-scale property, at higher elevations (e.g. the past-producing Main Mine at the
Cassiar South project area), direct evidence of stacking of mafic volcanic panels known to host mineralized
quartz veins, occurring between stacked shear zones localized along sedimentary and ultramafic units
demonstrates the potential for gold -bearing quartz veins to occur at multiple levels within a broader
package of mafic volcanic flows. Initial observations from Newcoast drill hole 25NC -013 highlight the
potential for additional Taurus -style mineralization to occur within such extensive untested areas at
different levels in the Cassiar North project area.

veining hosted in variably sulphide -mineralized and altered mafic volcanic host rock. Assay results remain
pending.
