Toronto, Ontario – TheNewswire – April 10, 2026 – Loyalist Exploration Limited (CSE: PNGC) (“Loyalist”
or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the appointment of Bob Bresee, C.E.T., as Vice President of
Operations.
Mr. Bresee is a Certified Engineering Technologist and a graduate of the Haileybury School of Mines. With
more than 45 years of hands-on experience in the mining industry and as a long-time resident of Timmins,
Ontario, he brings extensive operational and technical expertise to the role. Bob began his career at the
bottom of the ladder in 1975 as a miner, shift boss trainee, and spare shift boss at Kerr Addison Gold Mines
Ltd. in Virginiatown, Ontario, and has steadily worked his way up through progressively senior roles in
engineering, project management, and operations leadership. Bob will continue as a director of the
Company.
His career includes senior positions with several notable companies, such as:
• Kinross Gold Corporation (Hoyle Pond Mine)
• Klondex Mines Ltd. (as V.P. Elect, Canadian Operations and General Manager of the Midas Mine
& Mill)
• Trelawney Mining & Exploration Inc. (Mine Manager, Chester Area Projects)
• Liberty Mines Inc. (Mine Manager, Redstone and McWatters operations)
• River Gold Mines Ltd. (Project Manager, Eagle River and Edwards Mines)
• Gowest Gold Ltd. (Mining Consultant, Bradshaw Project)
• Sage Gold Inc. (Mining Consultant, Clavos Mine)
• and more recently as CEO/Director of Voltage Metals Corp., where he led due diligence and
mine planning for restarting a former 2,500 tpd nickel producer in the Timmins area.
Mr. Bresee’s expertise spans narrow vein and bulk longhole mining, underground project development and
restarts, permitting (particularly in Ontario), mine planning, budgeting, cost control, and production ramp-
ups. He has managed multi-million-dollar budgets, infrastructure expansions (including shaft sinking and
ramp development), mill operations, and environmental processes. Notably, he previously served as project
manager on Loyalist’s flagship Tully Gold Project while with SGX Resources Inc.
Errol Farr, Loyalist’s President & Chief Executive Officer, commented: “I have gotten to know Bob well
over the past year as a Director of Loyalist and I am thrilled to welcome Bob into this key leadership role.
His proven track record at companies like Kinross Gold, Klondex, Trelawney, Liberty Mines, and more
recently Voltage Metals, combined with his strong Timmins roots and deep familiarity with the Tully project,
makes him an outstanding addition to management. Starting from the ground up as a miner in 1975 and
rising through the ranks gives Bob a unique, practical perspective that will be instrumental as we advance
Tully toward production and execute our ‘Buy Timmins, Mine Timmins’ strategy.”
Bob Bresee, Vice President of Operations, added: “I’m excited to step into the operations role at Loyalist
at this important stage. I have been a miner all my life and I’ve always been passionate about the Timmins
camp. My previous involvement with the Tully project gives me a strong appreciation for its potential. I look
forward to applying my operational experience to help advance Tully through permitting and development
and operations.”
