NorthWest Announces Updated Mineral Resource at Kwanika Reflecting Strategic Shift to Higher-Grade Copper-Gold Focus
NorthWest Announces Updated Mineral Resource at Kwanika Reflecting
Strategic Shift to Higher-Grade Copper-Gold Focus
TORONTO, March 02, 2026 -- NorthWest Copper Corp. (“NorthWest” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: NWST) is pleased to
announce an updated mineral resource estimate for the Kwanika Central deposit at its 100% owned Kwanika-Stardust Project,
(the “Project”), comprising the Kwanika Central, Kwanika South, and Stardust deposits. NorthWest plans to use the updated
Mineral Resource estimate to support an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) targeted for completion in mid
2026.
Paul Olmsted, CEO of NorthWest, commented: “This updated Mineral Resource Estimate represents a significant milestone
for the Company and reinforces our strategy of prioritizing higher-grade copper and gold mineralization at Kwanika. The update
is an excellent result, demonstrating a substantial Mineral Resource base from which to develop preliminary open pit and
underground mine plans that can support a long mine life. Importantly, the results mark a major step toward our goal of a more
capital-efficient, top-down underground mining approach, including sub-level caving and sub-level retreat mining methods. In
addition, the significant open pit component should help de-risk the early years of a mine schedule, particularly with the
potential for a higher-grade starter pit. With this milestone achieved, our immediate focus shifts to advancing the Project
toward completion of a PEA in mid-2026. We believe this next phase of work will further demonstrate the opportunity to deliver
a more economically compelling Project relative to the 2023 PEA as we continue to advance Kwanika toward development.”
Highlights Kwanika Central Deposit:
• Indicated Mineral Resource: 16.22 million tonnes (“Mt”) grading 0.63 % Cu, 0.74 g/t Au, 2.0 g/t Ag or 1.27 % CuEq1, for
226.6 million lbs (“Mlbs”) of Cu, 383 thousand ounces of gold and 1,035 thousand ounces of silver.
• Inferred Mineral Resource: 28.97 Mt grading 0.48 % Cu, 0.63 g/t Au, 1.5 g/t Ag or 1.05 % CuEq, for 307.6 Mlbs of Cu,
589 thousand ounces of gold and 1,393 thousand ounces of silver.
• Open Pit Mineral Resources:
◦ Indicated Mineral Resource: 8.99 Mt grading 0.55 % Cu, 0.51 g/t Au, 1.8 g/t Ag or 0.98 % CuEq, for 109.5 Mlbs
of Cu, 148 thousand ounces of gold and 512 thousand ounces of silver.
◦ Inferred Mineral Resource: 9.18 Mt grading 0.33 % Cu, 0.35 g/t Au, 1.0 g/t Ag or 0.63 % CuEq, for 66.1 Mlbs of
Cu, 104 thousand ounces of gold and 300 thousand ounces of silver.
• Underground Sub-Level Cave (“SLC”) Mineral Resources:
◦ Indicated Mineral Resource: 7.23 Mt grading 0.73 % Cu, 1.01 g/t Au, 2.3 g/t Ag or 1.64 % CuEq, for 117.0 Mlbs
of Cu, 235 thousand ounces of gold and 523 thousand ounces of silver.
◦ Inferred Mineral Resource: 19.8 Mt grading 0.55 % Cu, 0.76 g/t Au, 1.7 g/t Ag or 1.24 % CuEq, for 241.5 Mlbs of
Cu, 485 thousand ounces of gold and 1,093 thousand ounces of silver.
• The Mineral Resource estimate for Kwanika Central was supported by verified data, robust geological models, well-
defined mineralized zones, constrained by informed open pit shells and underground sub-level cave mining shapes and
optimized to support mid-size bulk mining open pit and sub-level cave mining studies.
• Technical sub-studies on metallurgical variability testing and power are now underway to support an updated PEA
targeted for completion by mid 2026.
Geoff Chinn, VP Business Development and Exploration added: “The updated Kwanika Central Mineral Resource differs in
several important ways from previous estimates. Mineralized zones have been more clearly defined and separated into higher-
grade and lower-grade zones, as well as into gold and copper dominant zones, fundamentally re-mapping our understanding of
the deposit. We have also recognized that sub-parallel, wide mineralized zones are separated by zones of host rock. Notably,
this is the first time Mineral Resources has been disclosed with a top-down sub-level cave mining method in mind. A key
feature of sub-level cave Mineral Resources is that all material within the preliminary caving shape is considered without a cut-
off grade. To illustrate this, we note that approximately 24% of the sub-level cave volume comprises host rock within the
mining envelope. As the Project advances to the PEA stage, a goal will be to manage dilution. Two key initiatives aimed at
achieving this goal include advancing higher resolution mine designs and processing technologies like ore sorting, as
disclosed in our February 23, 2026, News Release.”
Mineral Resource Overview:

Dilution in the Mineral Resources
For underground sub-level caving methods, Mineral Resources are constrained within conceptual mining shapes developed
using an NSR cut-off of C$56.76/t to demonstrate reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction. At Kwanika Central,
all Indicated and Inferred material contained within the resulting sub-level cave reporting shapes is included in the Mineral
Resource, with no additional cut-off applied within the shapes. This reporting approach reflects the inherent inclusion of internal
dilution (“must take” material) within the mineralized zones associated with the mining method.
Additional host rock located within the conceptual sub-level cave mining envelope but outside the mineralized zones is also
noted for transparency and represents potential additional dilution inherent to the mining method.
More detailed mine design and processing studies will be required to quantify dilution and to assess the potential impact of ore
sorting work recently reported by the Company. To provide additional transparency, Table 2b notes the tonnage of poorly
mineralized host rock contained within the SLC reporting shapes.
Property
The 35,700 ha Kwanka-Stardust project is 100% owned and is located 150 km north of Fort St. James in the Omineca Mining
Division of north-central British Columbia.
Geology
The Kwanika Central and South deposits are located along the western margin of the Quesnel Terrane, a Late Paleozoic to
Early Jurassic island arc that hosts numerous calc-alkalic to alkalic Cu-Au porphyry deposits including the Copper Mountain
mine, Mount Milligan mine and New Afton Cu-Au mines, the giant Highland Valley Cu-Mo mine, and NorthWest Copper’s
Lorraine – Top Cat Cu-Au-Ag±PGE porphyry project.
Kwanika geology is dominated by Jurassic intrusions that are part of the Hogem batholith, to which Kwanika mineralization is
related, emplaced into favourable Triassic Takla Group volcanic rocks. The Kwanika hydrothermal system and the Hogem
intrusions are truncated on their west side by the Pinchi fault, a regional-scale dextral strike-slip structure. Mineral resources
at Kwanika are hosted at the Central deposit with additional mineral potential in and around the Central and South deposit
areas.
The Stardust deposit is located only 7 km northwest of the Kwanika Central deposit. It is hosted by the Late Paleozoic Cache
Creek Terrane, which occurs west of the Pinchi Fault. Mineralization at Stardust deposit is related to the Eocene Glover
Stock, a multiphase felsic intrusion emplaced into Cache Creek limestones and clastic sedimentary rocks. Stardust is a high-
grade Cu-Au carbonate replacement deposit (CRD, including skarn).
Stardust occurs in one part of a 2.2 km long corridor that exhibits classic CRD zoning progressing from the northwest to the
southeast through:
• Proximal Cu-Mo porphyry mineralization in the Glover Stock
• High-grade Cu-Au resources in the 421 Zone and overlying Canyon Creek Zone skarns that replaced limestone and
calcareous sedimentary rocks along the eastern margin of the Glover stock
• Zn-Pb-Ag mantos and chimneys in the 4b, No. 3 and No. 2 Manto Zones
• Peripheral Ag-Au epithermal mineralization in the No.1 Ag-Au ±Zn±Cu Vein Zone
The Kwanika Central, Kwanika South and Stardust deposits together comprise the Kwanika-Stardust project.
Data Verification
The data used in the Kwanika Mineral Resource estimate is supported by Quality Assurance and Quality Control (“QA/QC”)
procedures, such as the insertion of certified standards and blanks into the sample stream and the utilization of certified
independent analytical laboratories for all assays. The QA/QC data and methodology on the project were reviewed and will be
summarized in the NI 43-101 technical report.
Daniel Grabiec, P.Geo. of Explore Geosolutions, an independent Qualified Person in accordance with the requirements of NI
43-101 reviewed the adequacy of sample preparation, security, QA/QC programs and analytical procedures conducted by
NorthWest from the start of the 2022 Kwanika drill programs through to the Effective Date. They also actively monitored the
QA/QC program in 2025. This review found no material issues or inconsistencies that could adversely affect the quality or
reliability of the data. The Explore Geosolutions QP is of the opinion that:
• NorthWest’s sample preparation procedures are appropriate for the deposit type and mineralization style.
• Analytical methods used, including fire assay, and screen fire assay, are suitable for determining gold grades in the
Project.
• The QA/QC program, which includes CRMs, blanks, and duplicates, is well-structured, meets industry standards, and
provides confidence in the assay data.
• Sample security measures and chain of custody protocols are sufficient to ensure the integrity of the data.
April Barrios, P.Geo. of SLR, an independent Qualified Person in accordance with the requirements of NI 43-101, is of the
opinion that NorthWest’s sampling, analytical methods, and QA/QC program meet industry standards and are suitable for use
in the Mineral Resource estimate.
Data verification for the drill hole database included comparing gold assay values used to support the Mineral Resource
estimate against the original analytical certificates from Acme, ActLabs, AGAT, ALS, Bureau Veritas, and Teck’s Global
Discovery Lab, the primary laboratories used by NorthWest between 2006 and 2025. The review covered a variety of assay
methods, including multi-element ICP, fire assay with AAS, ICP or gravimetric finish.
SLR found no material discrepancies that would impact the validity of the Mineral Resource estimate. SLR’s QP is of the
opinion that the verification process confirms the reliability of the assay database, ensuring its suitability for use for Mineral
Resource estimation.
In accordance with NI 43-101, April Barrios, P.Geo., of SLR, conducted a site visit to the Project and related facilities on
October 15 and 16, 2025. During this visit, she inspected the Kwanika Central deposit drill sites, the core shack, and reviewed
the logging environment and procedures for data collection and sampling. She also examined core samples from Kwanika
Central deposit. In addition, she interviewed NorthWest’s personnel and consultants and gathered information necessary for
completing the Mineral Resource estimate and accompanying Technical Report.
Ms. Barrios also inspected drill collars and drill hole cores relevant to the Mineral Resource estimation, verifying collar
locations using a handheld GPS and visually comparing mineralization with interpreted drilling sections. NorthWest provided
full access to all facilities and personnel during the visit. Ms. Barrios was accompanied by Geoff Chinn, VP Business
Development and Exploration of NorthWest.
Mineral Resource Estimation Methodology
At the Kwanika Central deposit, sixteen mineralized zones were defined by NWST as follows:
• Continuous gold zones were correlated based on values above 0.7g/t Au only.
• Continuous copper-gold zones were correlated based on values above 0.7% CuEq based on straight metal price
conversions.
• Low-grade zones were correlated based on values above 0.4% CuEq
• Late cross-cutting dykes within the mineralized were correlated based on gold values below 0.125g/t Au.
Assay caps were applied on a zone-by-zone basis prior to compositing. Two metre fixed length-weighted composites were
used for the interpolation of grades into the block model using inverse distance squared (ID2) interpolation and compared
against nearest neighbor (NN) via swath plots and tables for consistency. High-grade search restrictions were implemented
within certain zones. A sub-blocked model was created using a 5 m parent cell size with 2.5 m sub block increments to
accurately reproduce the wireframe volumes. Block model bulk density values were assigned on a zone-by-zone basis using
the arithmetic mean of validated density measurements from samples collected within each mineralized zone. Fixed average
bulk density values were assigned to blocks outside the mineralized zones.
MRE classification was based primarily on closest three-hole spacings of up to approximately 35 m (nominal 50 m regular drill
spacing) for Indicated Mineral Resources and up to approximately 70 m (nominal 100 m regular drill spacing) for Inferred
Mineral Resources, which were applied to create continuous classification categories.

Metallurgy
For processing, material was ground to a primary grind P80 of approximately 53 microns using conventional ball mills. The
majority of the copper mineralization floated quickly, while mineralization with slower kinetics was treated separately in a
dedicated bulk flotation circuit. Treating the two different mineralogy’s separately, significantly improved the metallurgical
response, while allowing flexibility in the flowsheet. Approximately 89.6% of the copper mineralization was recovered to
concentrates. The downstream process included leaching of the float tailings, which increased overall gold extraction in the
central zone to over 95%. Reagent consumption during the leach was decreased relative to the previous work as the residual
copper content was low. This in turn, allowed the process to use standard tailings treatment processes.
Based on recent test work and project experience, Canenco recommended the following concentrate characteristics, smelter
terms and tailing leach parameters to be used in the Mineral Resource estimate:

Net smelter return (“NSR”) values were calculated on a block-by-block basis using copper, gold, and silver block grades with
the input parameters listed in the tables above. For NSR and CuEq calculations, fixed smelter terms, and recovery values are
applied to all blocks within each zone as provided below.

CUEQ = ([CAD_NSR] * 0.74) / (4.51*22.046*0.896)
Mining Constraints/RPEEE Shapes
Blocks were constrained by open pit shells and sub-level cave underground mining shapes at a base case mining scenario to
demonstrate RPEEE at an NSR cut-off of $24.06/t for open pit and $56.75/t for sub-level caving. The cut-off grades were
selected using cost estimates listed in the table below that assume: a processing throughput rate of 7,000 tonnes-per-day
(tpd).
Operating Costs Unit Values
Mining costs (OP) CAD$/t mined $5.12
Mining costs (SLC) CAD$/t mined $32.70

Process costs CAD$/t ROM ore $17.71
G&A costs CAD$/t ROM ore $5.15
Process + Sorting+ G&A Costs CAD$/t ROM ore $24.06
Reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction (“RPEEE”) were demonstrated for the reported Mineral Resource
estimate by constraining the open pit material within preliminary optimized pit shells, while the underground material was
constrained within sub-level cave shapes.
Open pit Mineral Resource estimates were reported above a C$24.06/t NSR reporting cut-off value, whereas sub-level cave
Mineral Resource estimates were reported at a C$0/t NSR cut-off.
At Kwanika Central, for the purposes of open pit and underground RPEEE mining shape optimization, the estimated block
model was re-blocked to 5 m by 5 m by 5 m and reported within a sub-blocked model with 5 m by 5 m by 5 m parent cells
with 2.5m sub-blocks.
