CORRECTION FROM SOURCE - KTRI Reports on drill results from the Two Times Fred
property
Kootenay Resources Inc. (TSXV: KTRI) (the “Company” or “KTRI”) reports on drill assays from
review of $4.0 million dollars of work conducted on Two Times Fred, Nechako Plateau Region,
British Columbia, as disclosed in the news release of March 27, 2025.
Dale Brittliffe P.Geo., VP of Exploration says “This epithermal vein system has excellent prospects
for a significant gold discovery. Drilling to date has clearly defined a range of mineralized targets
to follow up. The vein system is large, measuring at least 3.5 km x 2km. All veins encountered are
anomalous in gold and silver and the prevalence of outcropping sinter rock (hot springs related
silica) indicates the mineralized system is almost entirely preserved from erosion. The last hole, 2XF-
22-0041, was the best to date with no other holes completed within 300m in either direction on the
Saki vein”
The continuing review of exploration conducted on the system reveals:

aeromagnetics.
35 of 41 diamond drill holes range from anomalous results to highs of 10.8 gpt gold and 122
gpt silver.
Last Hole was the best hole.
o 14.95 meters of 1.28 gpt gold and 14.6 gpt silver from 21.1 meters with 3 meters
of 2.66 gpt gold and 31.2 gpt silver and 2.85 meters of 2.3 gpt gold and 21.1 gpt
silver.
o 20.6 meters of 1.32 gpt gold and 17.2 gpt silver from 47.7 meters with 2 meters of
6.93 gpt gold and 58.6 gpt silver and 1 meter of 10.8 gpt gold and 88.5 gpt silver.
The project remains lightly drilled over multiple veins in a large area.
Two primary vein trends with one striking north-northeast and the other northeast. All are
steep dipping
The two sets make up a classic structural pattern often seen in vein systems possibly
indicative of strike slip movement.
Numerous veins occur with five principal veins trends to date
o Borrow Pit
o Saki
o Hidden Hand
o Gold Hill
o Shinju
The Shinju and Gold Hill are northeast trending veins
Saki, Hidden Hand and Borrow Pit are north-northeast trending veins.
Key features of the principal mineralized veins are summarized below, a table of compiled drill
highlights follows. All drill assays quoted are core length, drawn from both Kootenay and Centerra
datasets. Data from all drilling programs quoted were subject to industry standard QA-QC protocols.

Other veins or vein trends include “Shochu” vein intercepted in the northernmost reconnaissance
hole on the property to date, RC drill hole 2XF-22-RC003. Additional targets or trends are indicated
by mineralized rock chip outcrops to the west and 800 meters east of Gold Hill Vein. It is probable
further exploration work will reveal more veins.
A tabulation of drilling results from three drilling campaigns since 2015 is shown below. Drill holes
2XF-15-01 to 08 and 2XF-19-01 to 05 represent early tests of surface anomalies conducted by
Kootenay Resources in 2015 and 2019. Subsequent drilling, 2XF-21-0014 to 0041 were compiled
from database received from Centerra. Exploration work completed by that company is well
documented in publicly available BC Assessment report #41144. Data were collected to industry
standard QA-QC protocols and are considered representative of the tenor of the veins tested by this
work.
