Nuinsco Options Paradise Lake Gold Project in Central Newfoundland
Nuinsco Options Paradise Lake Gold Project in Central Newfoundland
Toronto, April 8, 2026 – Nuinsco Resources Limited (“Nuinsco” or the “Company”) (CSE: NWI, FRA: NJX) today announced
that it has optioned the 3,300 ha Paradise Lake gold project (the “Project”), located within the prolifically mineralized
Central Newfoundland gold district. The project consists of 132 mineral exploration claims in two separate blocks;
respectively the 108 claim Paradise Lake block, and the 24 claim Pistol Lake block. Historically, widespread and anomalous
gold mineralization has been identified across the Project area. The Project is located approximately 27 km south of Grand
Falls–Windsor, directly accessible via local roads and tracks.
Located on the Dunnage Zone litho-tectonic domain of Central Newfoundland the mineralization at the Project is
interpreted to be related to the Cape Ray–Valentine Lake structural zone and the Victoria Lake Fault Zone. These structures
are associated with much of the gold mineralization in central Newfoundland, including Equinox Gold’s flagship Valentine
Lake gold deposit, and the Moosehead Property operated by Pirate Gold. The Paradise Lake project encompasses an
underexplored land package with approximately 10 km of strike length within this highly gold-prospective terrane.
“Nuinsco is excited to be exploring for gold mineralization in such prospective geological terrane as underlies the Paradise
Lake project. Previous work has confirmed that gold mineralization occurs widely on the Project and high-grade gold
mineralization exists at shallow depths, is associated with a mappable structural and alteration system, and has potential
for continuity along strike and at depth,” said Paul Jones, CEO. “The regional presence of significant gold deposits occurring
in similar terrane attests to the potential of the Project.”
Previous exploration on the Project has included airborne magnetic, electromagnetic, and radiometric survey, ground
induced polarization (IP), prospecting/rock sampling and till sampling, and limited diamond drilling (approximately
2
3,700m). This earlier work has identified widespread anomalous gold mineralization in rock and tills. Six extensive areas
of gold anomalous till mineralization have been identified, and ten areas have been interpreted to be sites of silicified low-
sulphidation gold mineralization with highly anomalous gold, silver, arsenic and antimony values. From 965 rock samples
collected, 73 samples returned gold values between 0.1 g/t and 144.7 g/t gold. Of 1,278 till samples, 53 contain anomalous
gold from 10 ppb to 1.114 g/t gold. Quartz breccias, associated with syenite intrusions, have returned assays up to 14.22
g/t Au. An induced polarization (IP) survey has identified chargeability anomalies along at least 4.5km with implications
for structural controls on the gold mineralization. Diamond drilling has intersected multiple intervals containing gold
mineralization, and visible gold has been observed. Fifty core intervals were intersected with gold concentration over
0.1g/t from 0.5 to 10.9 m widths; these intervals include: 6.21g/t Au over 0.5m in DDH PL-22-01, 6.00g/t Au over 0.5m
and 7.75g/t Au over 0.5m core intervals in DDH PL-22-07, and 5.43g/t Au over a 0.5m core interval in DDH PL-22-12
(reference: Aurwest Resources Corporation 2nd to 8th year (2022) Assessment Report On: Diamond drilling, Prospecting
and Mapping Paradise Lake Gold Project. 20 Dec., 2022).

project, Nuinsco must complete the following:
