Northern Lights Provides Exploration Update and Stakes Additional

Claims at The Horetzky Copper Project Located in The Babine

Porphyry Copper Belt

Vancouver, British Columbia, October 30, 2024, Northern Lights Resources Corp.

(“Northern Lights” or the “Company”) (CSE:NLR, OTC: NLRCF) is pleased to provide an

overview of exploration plans and activities at its recently acquired Horetzky Copper

Project (“Horetzky” or the “Project”), located in the Babine porphyry copper belt.

An initial review of exploration data pertaining to the Project identified numerous historical

geological, geophysical and geochemical data sets that need to be reviewed and

interpreted using modern methods to unlock their full potential to help direct the

Company’s future exploration efforts. To complete this work, Northern Lights has

engaged the same group that completed the compilation resulting in American Eagle Gold

Corp. (TSXV: AE) optioning the Nak property.

Although at a very early stage, the data review has identified a soil geochemical anomaly

with values of up to 2,000 ppm copper and 90 ppm molybdenum coinciding with an area

of hornfels, porphyry dykes and a moderate positive aeromagnetic anomaly, located in

the northwest corner of the property. A total of 748 hectares were acquired by map staking

to cover this area of interest, resulting in an approximate 17% expansion to the property.

Work on permitting will begin shortly, and will include the submission of a Notice of Work

to the British Columbia government as well as discussions with local First Nations.

Horetzky Project Highlights:

• Located in the Babine porphyry copper belt which hosts the past producing Bell

and Granisle copper -gold mines and several promising advanced stage copper -

gold exploration targets including American Eagle’s Nak project, Amarc

Resources’ Duke and Hearne Hill projects and the Morrison deposit of Pacific

Booker Minerals.

• Geological similarities to other Babine porphyry copper belt targets include, the

presence of an Eocene aged Babine plutonic suite intrusive and likely coeval dykes

which together have caused widespread hornfelsing and alteration within

surrounding volcani cs and sediments, and a mineralization suite that includes

chalcopyrite, molybdenite, bornite and chalcocite.

• The Project is host to an approximate 3.0 km 2 copper soil geochemical anomaly,

with numerous samples having returned greater than 1,000 ppm copper to a

{00064031.2}

2

maximum of >10,000 ppm copper, that is open for expansion to the southeast and

strongly open to the southwest where it is associated with a strong positive

magnetic anomaly possibly representing potassic alteration.

• Although most historical programs failed to analyze for gold, several recent

programs have analyzed for gold resulting in rock sample values of up to >1%

copper and 277 ppb gold and soil sample values of up to 1,085 ppm copper and

440 ppb gold, suggesting good relatively untested potential for gold exists within

this porphyry style system.

• Project is located approximately 95 kilometres northeast of the regional centre of

Smithers. It consists of 11 tenures totalling 5,057 hectares and is partially road

accessible with active logging cuts located close to the main copper soil

geochemical anomaly.

Northern Lights, CEO, Jason Bahnsen commented: “We are happy to see compilation

work begin and although early days, it has already resulted in the identification of a

prospective area that justified staking. The group we have engaged for the Horetzky

compilation has experience in the belt, having also completed the compilation that helped

spur American Eagle’s interest in the Nak project. We will begin engaging with local First

Nations as part of applying for a Notice of Work exploration permit for this exciting target.”

Historical Data

The exploration results reported in this release are historical in nature. The Company has

not conducted an independent review of the exploration results, nor has it independently

analyzed the exploration results to verify them. The Company considers these exploration

results relevant, as it will use this data to help guide future exploration programs. The

Company also considers the exploration results reliable for these purposes; however, the

Company’s future exploration work will include verification of t he exploration results

through additional sampling or other measures the Company deems necessary.

Qualified Person Statement

Information in this report relating to Exploration Results is based on information reviewed

by Mr. Lee R. Beasley, a Certified Professional Geologist who is a Member of the

American Institute of Professional Geologists, and a consultant to Northern Lights

Resources. Mr. Beasley has sufficient experience which is relevant to the style of

mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity which he is

undertaking to qualify as a Qualified Person for the purposes of NI43 -101 Standards of

Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Mr. Beasley consents to the inclusion of the data in the

form and context in which it appears.
