Carolina Rush Provides Exploration Update on Brewer Gold-Copper Project
Carolina Rush Provides Exploration Update on
Brewer Gold-Copper Project
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 18, 2025) - Carolina Rush Corporation (TSXV: RUSH)
(OTCQB: PUCCF) ("Carolina Rush," "Rush" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an exploration
update for its flagship Brewer Gold-Copper Project in Chesterfield County, South Carolina, USA.
Highlights:
2025 Strategic Focus:
Advance exploration of Brewer's deep porphyry potential.
Q1 2025:
Publish maiden Brewer NI 43-101 Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate.
Conduct inaugural deep-sensing geophysical survey to map lithology and identify potential
geological structures and mineralization down to at least 1 km below surface.
Q2 2025:
Develop deep drill targets to test for porphyry copper-gold mineralization.
Ongoing:
Engage potential strategic partners for a large-scale deep drill program.
Evaluate Brewer's critical mineral potential, specifically for tellurium, gallium, bismuth, tin,
antimony and arsenic.
Meet at PDAC:
Visit RUSH at booth #2440 at PDAC in Toronto this March 2-5.
Carolina Rush President and CEO Layton Croft stated: "In 2024 we reported 8 of our 15 best Brewer
drill results, all of which end less than 270 meters below surface (see Table 1). In 2025 we are
sharpening our focus on Brewer's deeper porphyry copper-gold potential. We will soon conduct a deep-
sensing IP and MT geophysical survey that will produce useful data to at least 1,000 meters below
surface, guiding our deep drilling strategy. Our goal is to determine whether Brewer hosts a porphyry
deposit, and if it does, to then assess its mineralization and evaluate its scale. Unlocking Brewer's
porphyry potential is the best way to drive long-term shareholder value. In alignment with this strategy, we
will soon drop our Sawyer and New Sawyer exploration projects in North Carolina."

Brewer NI 43-101 Report
In March, RUSH will complete its maiden Brewer Mineral Resource Estimate and Technical Report
compliant with the Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101 Standards of
Disclosure for Mineral Projects (NI 43-101). The Company retained the consulting services of
independent geologist and Qualified Person (QP) Mr. P.J. Hollenbeck, CPG, MBA to contribute to the NI
43-101 report.
Brewer Deep-Sensing Geophysical Survey
Carolina Rush has contracted Zonge International Geophysical Services (Zonge) to conduct both a direct
current induced polarization (IP)/Resistivity and magnetotelluric (MT) deep-sensing geophysical survey
at Brewer (see Figure 1). The survey will commence on February 24, with interim results expected in
March and final results in April. The IP/Resistivity and MT survey is expected to generate high resolution
resistivity down to 1,500-meter depths and chargeability imaging down to 750-meter depths.
Survey Objectives:
Lithological mapping
: different rock types exhibit varying electrical resistivity properties, and the
IP/Resistivity and MT surveys can help distinguish between lithological units and create detailed
geological maps.
Identify geological structures:
IP/Resistivity and MT surveys can help identify variations in
subsurface resistivity and chargeability, which can be indicative of different geological structures
such as faults, fractures or mineralized zones.
Delineate mineralization:
the resistivity and chargeability contrast between mineralized and non-
mineralized rocks can be captured by IP/Resistivity and MT surveys, enabling the identification and
delineation of mineralized zones.

Evaluating Brewer's Critical Mineral Potential
The U.S. Government's latest critical minerals list includes
six found at Brewer - tellurium, gallium,
bismuth, tin, antimony, and arsenic - alongside gold and copper (see:
https://www.usgs.gov/news/national-news-release/us-geological-survey-releases-2022-list-critical-
minerals
). Based on its more than 8,000 high-quality geochemical analyses, RUSH believes these six
critical elements are present in elevated concentrations at Brewer. The Company plans to further assess
their significance, as well as evaluating potential collaboration with government and private sector
entities to better understand Brewer's critical mineral potential.

Manager Patrick Quigley, and Corporate Communications Manager Jeanny So at the upcoming
Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) conference from March 2-5, 2025 at the
Metro Toronto Convention Centre in downtown Toronto. Visit RUSH at booth #2440.
