Carolina Rush Announces Refiling of Maiden
Mineral Resource Technical Report for Brewer
Gold-Copper Project
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 8, 2025) - Carolina Rush Corporation (TSXV: RUSH)
(OTCQB: PUCCF) ("Carolina Rush," "Rush" or the "Company") announced that, as a result of a review
by staff of the Ontario Securities Commission ("OSC"), the Company has amended and refiled its
Technical Report titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Brewer Gold -Copper Project, South
Carolina", originally filed on May 2, 2025.
The OSC review was conducted as part of its continuous disclosure review program specifically related
to the requirements under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI
43-101").
The Company has addressed the following items in the amended Technical Report:
Authorship and independence:
Patrick Quigley, the Company's Senior Geologist and
Exploration Manager, was removed as a co-author of the report to comply with NI 43-101
requirements for independent authors. Patrick Hollenbeck, an independent Qualified Person,
assumes sole authorship and responsibility.
Updated CIM Guidelines:
The amended report reflects the current CIM Estimation of Mineral
Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practice Guidelines (2019) instead of the outdated 2003
version.
Metallurgical Recovery:
A responsible metallurgical recovery assumption, based on historical
Hazen test work (1984), was applied to support the cut-off grade used in the mineral resource
estimate.
Constraining surfaces for RPEEE:
To demonstrate reasonable prospects for eventual
economic extraction (RPEEE), the Company constrained the mineral resource within a conceptual
open-pit shell.
Clarification on High-Grade Assay Handling:
Additional disclosure was provided on the use of
"high-yield limits" to constrain the influence of statistical outliers.

(1)
Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability.
(2)
The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or
other relevant issues.
(3)
The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must
not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an
Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
(4)
The Mineral Resources in this report were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on
Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the
CIM Council.

encouraged to review the full report, which will provide further details on key assumptions, parameters, and risks associated with the Mineral
Resource Estimate.

Details on the metallurgical properties and processing methods required to extract gold and copper from the backfill material have not been
undertaken.
As such, the Backfill resource is considered theoretical and additional studies are required to report the inferred resources at a
higher level of confidence.
