About Gold Runner Exploration Inc:

Gold Runner Exploration is an experienced exploration company focused on the exploration of gold and

silver properties located in the prolific mining districts of Canada and the USA.

The Rock Creek gold project is Gold Runner's flagship asset, with 74 unpatented lode mining claims wholly owned

and controlled by the Company. Emboldened by the results coming out of Rock Creek, the Company strategically

expanded the land position with the acquisition of the nearby Dry Creek prospect and the acquisition of the Falcon

silver-gold prospect in September 2022. Between the three properties, all targeting similar mineralization and likely

the same hydrothermal system, Gold Runner Exploration now holds 239 total claims in close proximity of one another.

These three gold prospects are situated in a region with proven " world-class" gold deposits (including Midas, Jerritt

Canyon, Betze-Post, Meikle, and Gold Quarry), where the potential of finding large, high-grade gold-silver deposits is

favourable.

Gold Runner also holds a 10% carried interest in the Cimarron project located in the San Antonio Mountains of Nye

County, Nevada, and comprises 31 unpatented lode mining claims, including control of 6 historically producing claims

{00803855 v1}

associated with the historic San Antonio mine. The property is located in the prolific Walker -Lane trend,

approximately 44 km south of the "world-class" Round Mountain deposit.
