Permit Approved: Unlocks Key Milestone for
Project Advancement
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 24, 2025) - Scottie Resources Corp. (TSXV: SCOT)
(OTCQB: SCTSF) (FSE: SR80) ("
Scottie
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce that it has
received all required permits from the Government of British Columbia to proceed with a 10,000-tonne
surface bulk sampling program at its 100%-owned Scottie Gold Mine Project. 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.
Bulk Sample Highlights:
Fully permitted for the excavation of up to
10,000 tonnes
of rock (including mineralized material
and waste)
Sample to be taken from the road accessible, outcropping Bend Vein located on the north
end of the Scottie Gold Mine Project
Expected to produce
3,000 - 4,000 tonnes
of mineralized rock
Planned studies
Full scale
Ore Sorting
test on bulk material from an individual gold-bearing pyrite-pyrrhotite
vein and host rock
Comminution tests to optimise crushed material size and reduce fines production
Additional metallurgical testing to understand characteristics of mineralized material for
alternative processing options (i.e., toll milling)
"We're thrilled to have received the permit for our 10,000-tonne bulk sample," commented Dr. Thomas
Mumford, President of Scottie. "The efficient approval process—following our application in early
February—underscores both the strong support for responsible development in this jurisdiction and our
team's ability to navigate permitting effectively. This bulk sample is a critical step forward, enabling us to
demonstrate proof of concept for the Scottie Gold Mine DSO scenario."
Next Steps
With the receipt of the permit, the company has secured a mine contractor and has begun to move
equipment to site. The blasting and excavation of the sample is expected to occur during 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.

Instrument 43-101, has reviewed the technical information contained in this news release on behalf of the
Company.
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.
