Scottie Resources Provides Update on Bulk Sample and Drilling Progress
Scottie Resources Provides Update on Bulk
Sample and Drilling Progress
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 7, 2025) - Scottie Resources Corp. (TSXV:
SCOT) (OTCQB: SCTSF) (FSE: SR80) ("
Scottie
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to provide an update
on the field program underway on its Scottie Gold Mine Project. After having received the bulk sample
permit last week, Scottie has quickly mobilized contractors and equipment and has completed the first
blast for the sample. The project includes the historic Scottie Mine and the adjacent Blueberry Contact
Zone and is located 35 kilometres north of the town of Stewart, BC, along the Granduc Road. The bulk
sample is intended for exploration purposes only and is not considered a production decision.
Program Highlights:
Bulk Sample
First blast completed — have begun separating the mineralized rock
Expected to produce
3,000 — 4,000 tonnes
of mineralized rock
Begun sampling for various technical studies, including comminution testing, metallurgical
work
Diamond Drilling continues
To date, a total of
7,800 m
of drilling has been completed
Currently operating 3 diamond drills, 4
th
has been mobilized to site with the 4
th
drill crew
expected to arrive in the coming weeks
Hydrogeology holes completed, geotechnical drilling to commence next week to characterise
the rocks mass for open pit and underground mining
"Very proud of our team's ability to react quickly and facilitate the bulk sample mining. After just receiving
the permit a couple of weeks ago, the team was able to mobilize the equipment and contractor in order
to have our first blast," commented Brad Rourke, CEO of Scottie. "On the drilling front, with over 7,500 m
drilled since the start of July, we are well underway to deliver our largest program to date — and happy to
report we've noted multiple instances of visible gold in the core. We look forward to providing positive
news flow throughout the fall."
Next Steps
The current blast is being separated into mineralized and unmineralized piles. Once completed, a
second round of drilling and blasting will be completed. The blasting and excavation of the sample is
expected to occur by the end August, with the transportation of the sample in September. The sample
material will be transported to third-party facilities for off-site processing, testing, and analysis. Status
updates and technical data including recoveries, comminution properties, and ore sorting performance
will be provided as they become available. This data will be invaluable for the progression of the Scottie
Gold Mine DSO Project, as the bulk sample represents a proof of concept.
Clarification on Economic Potential
While Scottie is encouraged by the potential to generate technical data from the bulk sample, no
economic analysis has been completed, and no mineral reserves have been defined on the Scottie Gold
Mine Project. Any reference to potential revenue from sample processing is speculative and does not
imply economic viability. A production decision has not been made, and no Feasibility Study has been
completed. Should results prove positive, proceeds may be used for working capital or further
exploration; however, there is no assurance they will support future exploration or development
decisions.

ABOUT SCOTTIE RESOURCES CORP.
Scottie Resources holds a 100% interest in the Scottie Gold Mine Property, which includes the high-
grade, past-producing Scottie Gold Mine and the adjacent Blueberry Contact Zone. The Company also
owns a 100% interest in the Georgia Project, host to the past-producing Georgia River Mine, as well as
the Cambria, Sulu, and Tide North properties. In total, Scottie controls approximately 58,500 hectares of
highly prospective mineral claims within the Stewart Mining Camp in British Columbia's Golden Triangle-
one of the world's most prolific mineralized districts.
Scottie's current resource estimate on the Scottie Gold Mine Project includes a total of 703,000 gold
ounces at an average grade of 6.1 g/t (Inferred category), highlighting the potential for a significant near-
surface, high-grade deposit. The Company's strategy is to continue expanding this resource and to
define additional mineralization around past-producing mines through systematic drilling and surface
exploration.
In parallel, Scottie is evaluating a potential Direct Shipping Ore (DSO) scenario at the Scottie Gold Mine.
With permits recently in hand, a 10,000-tonne bulk sample is soon to commence.
This initiative provides
an opportunity to collect key geotechnical and metallurgical data while assessing a low-capex path to
potential near-term revenue through toll milling or third-party processing. This DSO concept does not
imply a production decision but reflects the optionality embedded in Scottie's portfolio.
