("
Goldstorm
" or
the "Company
") is pleased to announce an updated
analysis of the results of the 2025 Geophysical Programs, including both the Induced Polarization (IP)
and Magnetotelluric (MT) surveys, with incorporation of the geochemical surveys completed at its 100%-
owned Crown Property. The Property covers approximately 16,000 hectares directly south of Seabridge
Gold's KSM Project and Newmont's Brucejack Mine.

Ken Konkin, P. Geo., President and CEO, comments
"This year's IP and MT programs have
significantly improved our understanding of the structural framework at the Crown Project – a key
factor in interpreting the overall mineral potential as currently defined by surface mineralization along
the Orion Spine. When combined with data from the geochemical program, the results provide
important sub-surface information for planning future drill programs across multiple high-priority gold,
copper and silver targets.
"The geophysical results suggest the presence of a large, intrusive body at depth, which may be the
source of mineralized veins seen at surface. This reinforces both our current exploration model and
the geological connection between the Crown Project, Treaty Creek (Tudor Gold) and the KSM
(Seabridge Gold) porphyry systems.
Together these systems form a 20-kilometer-long, north trending
mineral belt hosting resources of over 100 million ounces gold, 20 billion pounds of copper and over
400 million ounces of silver.
The combined survey results increase our confidence in the potential for
discovering a very large intrusive-related copper-gold-silver porphyry system. The favourable
geophysical and geochemical results define an area measuring 1.2 km in a north-south direction, and
over a kilometer east to west.
A silica-rich resistive ridge at surface, a chargeability anomaly beneath
it, and a deep MT low below that are features of a classic porphyry architecture. These would represent
the silicified lithocap, the sulfide shell, and the deep alteration/fluid system. That's exactly the kind of
geometry you want to see when hunting a porphyry deposit.
"The Orion Spine area is now drill-ready and we will be assessing the best options for drilling the
priority co-incident anomalies. We plan a minimum of 2,400 to 3,000 meters of HQ and NQ core in at
least six drill holes for Phase 1. Contingent on the success of Phase 1, an additional proposed 5,000-
6,000 meters of drilling may proceed for Phase 2. We will release the drill plan once targets are
finalized and the budget and logistics are confirmed for the proposed 2026 Exploration Program."

Ken Konkin continued
: "In addition to delineating numerous high-priority geophysical targets, our
2025 exploration year's highlight was the discovery of a new gold zone located ten kilometers south of
Brucejack Mines' Valley of the Kings Deposit. The new discovery, now known as Delta West, consists
of a series of structurally-controlled, sub-parallel, gold-bearing quartz-pyrite veins and stockwork
systems trending east-northeast, similar to the trends observed at Treaty Creek's Supercell Complex.
Exploration crews will target this 500 m by 800 m area with the focus on expanding the zone eastward,
where more gossanous host rocks have been observed from the air. This area has only recently been
exposed due to the rapid ablation of snowfields and glaciers. These mineralized structures are located
much higher in elevation than the known porphyry deposits occurring to the north at KSM and Treaty
Creek. We believe that these gold-bearing structures may represent the outer reaches of a deep-
seated intrusive-related or porphyry system."
Highlights of the IP and MT Geophysical Programs include:
Identification of multiple, large-scale, high-chargeability and low-resistivity anomalies coincident
with previously identified zones of copper, gold and silver mineralization along the Orion Spine,
where the potential exists for a mineralizing intrusive source at depth.
Delineation of a coincident chargeability-resistivity anomaly at the Copernicus Zone, situated
between 300 and 500 meters in depth and extending over 1.2 km north to south and over 1 km
east to west, where recent exploration efforts have returned significant copper-gold-silver assay
results.
Mapping of subsurface MT resistivity variations, to depths exceeding 2,500 meters, enhancing the
understanding of potential sources and deep-rooted structures related to the hydrothermal
mineralization. (Note that low resistivity equates to high conductivity, often due to the presence of
metallic minerals).
Prioritization of seven conductive zones: four first-priority and three second-priority.
Identification of 26 chargeability anomalies: 15 first priority, 8 second priority, and 3 third priority
targets.

Warrant Acceleration
Goldstorm also announces that it is providing notice regarding the acceleration of the expiry of
outstanding common share purchase warrants (the "
Warrants
") of the Company that were originally
issued on June 27, 2025 (see news release dated June 27, 2025). Pursuant to the terms of the
Warrants, the expiry date of the Warrants accelerates if the closing share price on the TSX Venture
Exchange ("
TSXV
") exceeds $0.20 for any 10 consecutive trading days (the "
Acceleration Period
")
during the unexpired term of the Warrants, resulting in a new expiry date that is 30 calendar days after
the date the Company issues
notice to the Warrant holders. The Company hereby provides notice on
December 15, 2025, of the Acceleration Period covering the 10 trading days between October 10,
2025, and October 24, 2025, which has triggered the acceleration of the expiry of the Warrants to 4:30
p.m. (Vancouver Time) on January 15, 2026 (the "Accelerated Expiry Date"). Any Warrants remaining
unexercised after the Accelerated Expiry Date will expire and be of no force and effect.

QA/QC
All samples were prepared at MSA Labs' Preparation Laboratory in Terrace, BC and assayed at MSA
Labs' Geochemical Laboratory in Langley, BC. Gold was assayed using a fire assay with atomic
absorption (AA) spectrometry finish. Samples over 10 ppm gold were fire assayed with gravimetric
finish. All samples were analyzed by four acid digestion with multi-element ICP-MS, with silver and base
metal over-limits being reanalyzed by emission spectrometry. MSA Laboratories quality system
complies with the requirements for the International Standards ISO 17025 and ISO 9001. MSA Labs is
independent of the Company.
