• Infill Drilling Program. The ongoing 13,000-metre infill drill program within the Lowhee Zone
is being undertaken as part of the Appian 2025 Financing Facility obligations, from existing
underground development infrastructure.
o The infill program is expected to provide a comprehensive data set that will inform
resource modeling, mine planning and production stope design procedures and
parameters. It will also support the development of a systematic approach to infill
drilling for the underground mining operation.
o In 2025, a total of 5,983 met res of drilling was released, representing ~44% of the
planned program. To date, 11,025 metres of drilling have been released, representing
~80% of the planned program, with 96% of the total planned drilling completed. Assay
results and associated quality assurance and quality control reviews are pending for
unreleased holes. The Company anticipates completing the 13,000 -metre infill drill
program in the second quarter of 2026.
• Pre-Construction Activities. The Company continues to advance pre-construction activities,
including certain surface infrastructure and underground development.
o Water treatment plant: Upgrades to the Bonanza Ledge water treatment plant are in
the final stages of commissioning and the facility is anticipated to be fully operational in
the second quarter of 2026.
o Underground development: To date, approximately 2.1 kilometres of underground
development has been completed from the existing Cow Portal into the Lowhee Zone,
and along the main access ramp, through the Lowhee fault, towards the Cow Mountain
Zone. Development progress has been be low plan while encountering challenging
ground conditions in and around the Lowhee fault, requiring enhanced ground support.
Development rates are expected to improve as the ramp advances beyond this zone.
o Surface infrastructure: Construction of the waste rock storage facility, the sediment
control pond, early works in the mine site complex ("MSC") area and other critical
infrastructure continues.
o Camp upgrade: The upgrade and expansion of the site camp to 266 rooms is complete
and is expected to provide accommodation capacity aligned with peak construction
manpower requirements for the project.

times throughout 2026, as the various programs overlap and advance , for a combined total of
approximately 160,000 metres of planned drilling across all targets.
o A total of six drill rigs are currently operating on two surface exploration programs ,
including three surface drill rigs targeting exploration below the current extent of the
Cariboo Gold deposit to depths of up to 1,000 metres.
o To date, approximately 6,000 met res of drilling have been completed, with assays
pending. A second surface exploration program on the adjacent Proserpine regional
target has also commenced and ramped up to three drill rigs, with approximately 1,500
metres completed to date.
o Infill and conversion drilling is planned for 2026 to upgrade inferred resources to higher
level confidence resource categories with potential to be converted into mineral
reserves. The initial targets are within and below the current Cariboo Gold deposit.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
Cautionary Statement Regarding Financing Risks
The Company's development and exploration activities are subject to financing risks. A s of the date hereof , the Company has
exploration and development assets which may generate periodic revenues through test mining but has no mines in the commercial
production stage that generate positive cash flows. The Company cautions that test mining at its operations could be suspende d at
any time. The Company's ability to explore for and discover potential economic projects, and t hen to bring them into production, is
highly dependent upon its ability to raise equity and debt capital in the financial markets. Any projects that the Company de velops
will require significant capital expenditures. To obtain such funds, the Company may sell additional securities including, but not limited
to, the Company's shares or some form of convertible security, the effect of which may result in a substantial dilution of th e equity
interests of the Company's shareholders. Alternatively, the Company may also sell a part of its interest i n an asset in order to raise
capital. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the funds required to continue its exploration programs and
finance the development of any potentially economic deposit that is identified on acceptable term s or at all. The failure to obtain the
necessary financing(s) could have a material adverse effect on the Company's growth strategy, results of operations, financia l
condition and project scheduling.
