White Gold Corp. Launches Phase I of 2025 Exploration Program
Commencing IP Geophysics Surveys on Multiple Highly Prospective Critical
Mineral Targets
TORONTO, July 28, 2025 – White Gold Corp. (TSX.V: WGO, OTCQX: WHGOF, FRA: 29W) (the "Company") is pleased
to announce it has commenced its Critical Metals Exploration Program on key properties across its district-scale land
package in the prolific White Gold District, Yukon, Canada. Phase I of the 2025 exploration program is a continuation
of the Company’s successful expanded exploration focus beyond gold, targeting critical metals including copper (Cu),
molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W), antimony (Sb) and bismuth (Bi) amongst others . Phase II of the Company’s
strategic 2025 Exploration Program will commence in the coming weeks and will focus on high priority gold projects
including the Company’s existing significant gold resources and discoveries of new gold occurrences. Details of the
Phase II 2025 Exploration program including its upcoming diamond drill program focused on high priority gold targets
and other activities will be released in due course.
White Gold Corp’s property portfolio (Figure 1) includes 15,362 quartz claims across 21 properties covering 300,000
hectares (3,000 km2), representing approximately 40% of the White Gold District and hosts numerous prospective
gold and critical mineral targets in addition to the Company’s flagship White Gold Project which comprises 1,203,000
ounces of gold in the Indicated Resource category (17.7 million tonnes averaging 2.12 g/t Au) and 1,116,600 ounces
of gold in the Inferred Resource category (24.5 million tonnes averaging 1.42 g/t Au)(1) and remains open for further
expansion. Additional increases to the size of the resource may also be possible through an ongoing analysis to
incorporate mineralization hosted within the Company’s Target for Further Exploration area that hosts an additional
estimated 10 – 12 million tonnes grading between 1 – 2 g/t Au.

“Our entry into the critical metals space highlights the untapped multi -commodity potential of our vast Yukon
portfolio,” stated Dylan Langille, Vice President of Exploration for White Gold Corp. “Preliminary work has identified
compelling targets with favourable geophysical and geochemical signatures for critical metals, and we are excited to
advance these prospects with IP surveys to delineate drill targets.”
“The Yukon remains one of Canada’s most prospective and underexplored mining districts,” stated David D’Onofrio,
Chief Executive Officer. “By expanding our exploration efforts to include critical metals, White Gold Corp. is well -
positioned to capitalize on growing demand for these commodities, while continuing to build on our proven track
record for gold discoveries which have already led to the delineation of one of the highest-grade multi-million ounce
undeveloped open-pittable gold deposits in Canada . We look forward to continuing to unlock the gold and critical
mineral endowment of our prospective district scale land package in a tier 1 jurisdiction which has such a prolific
mining history and untapped prospectivity.”
The geology underlying the Company’s land package (Figure 2) is prospective for several critical minerals, including
copper, molybdenum, tungsten, antimony and bismuth amongst others. Middle to Late Cretaceous aged intrusions
are favourable for porphyry deposits containing primary sources of copper, molybdenum ± tungsten. The best
LEGAL*47516586.2
example in the region is Western Copper and Gold Corporation’s (TSX: WRN, NYSE American: WRN) Casino copper -
gold-molybdenum porphyry deposit.
Initial activities have commenced on three of the Company’s highly prospective critical mineral targets - the Bridget
target on the Pedlar Property, the Guilder target of the Loonie Property, and the Mt. Hart target on the Nolan
Property. The program will include both gradient and dipole -dipole induced polarization (IP) surveys designed to
refine high-priority porphyry style targets for drill testing.
Highlights:
Pedlar Property (Figure 3)
• Measuring 3 km NW-SE by 3.5 km NE -SW, the Bridget target represents a large, early -stage, geochemically
zoned copper-molybdenum-tungsten target that has never been diamond drill tested.
• The soil geochemistry footprint is notably characterized by Mo -in-soil values commonly over 250 ppm with
majority (over 400 samples) above 20ppm. Cu-in-soil values are typically over 100ppm, and W-in-soil values
frequently above 30ppm (as high as 100ppm).
• Two large northwest-southeast oriented fault systems cut the target in the north and in the south.
• A 40 line-kilometers Induced Polarization (IP) Gradient survey, and a Dipole-Dipole survey will be conducted
over the target to identify subsurface chargeability and resistivity anomalies indicative of critical metal
mineralization.
Loonie Property (Figure 4)
• The Guilder target has identified a n additional 3.0 by 0.5km northwest -trending zone of anomalous Cu -in-
soil results that is within a few kilometres and trending towards another prospective target in the area.
• 22 line-kilometer Gradient Induced Polarization (IP) surveys, and a Dipole-Dipole survey on the Guilder target
as follow up to the high copper signature identified in soil sampling, and major structural trend identified in
the interpretation of a 2024 VLF-EM and Lidar surveys.
Nolan Property (Figure 5)
• The Mt. Hart target is a large zoned multi -element soil geochemical anomaly hosting an enrichment in Au,
Ag, Cu, Mo, W, Pb, Bi, Sb, and Te. Previous mapping has concluded potential that a porphyry core is likely to
exist at depth and that alteration seen at surface may represent epithermal style alteration.
• 34 line-kilometer Gradient Induced Polarization (IP) surveys, and a Dipole -Dipole survey on the Mt. Hart
target as follow up to a high molybdenum (Mo) anomaly identified in previous soil grids.

Regional Exploration
Regional exploration work including geological mapping and prosecting, soil sampling, and LiDAR will also be carried
out on several properties with a goal of identifying new targets for future advancement.
Regional Setting – The Dawson Range
The Dawson Range forms an east-southeast trending mountain range which hosts several important mineral deposits
and prospects including the Casino porphyry Copper-Gold deposit, the Minto Mine and the Carmacks Copper project
(Granite Creek Copper Ltd., TSXV: GCX, OTCQB: GCXXF). Both are interpreted to represent metamorphosed copper-
LEGAL*47516586.2
gold-silver porphyry deposits. Porphyry deposits in the Dawson Range can be divided into 2 major ages, Late Triassic
(Minto, Carmacks) and Late Cretaceous (Casino, Cash, Revenue). In addition to porphyry mineralization, epithermal,
skarn, and polymetallic to gold-dominant mineralized veins, breccias and fracture zones also occur throughout the
Dawson Range. In recent years this area has drawn increased attention and investment from both junior and major
mining companies due to its high mineral potential.
About White Gold Corp.
The Company owns a portfolio of 15, 362 quartz claims across 2 1 properties covering approximately 3 00,000
hectares (3,000 km2) representing approximately 40% of the Yukon’s emerging White Gold District. The Company’s
flagship White Gold project hosts four near-surface gold deposits which collectively contain an estimated comprises
1,203,000 ounces of gold in the Indicated Resource category (17.7 million tonnes averaging 2.12 g/t Au) and
1,116,600 ounces of gold in the Inferred Resource category (24.5 million tonnes averaging 1.42 g/t Au) (1). Regional
exploration work has also produced several other new discoveries and prospective targets on the Company’s claim
packages which border sizable gold discoveries including the Coffee project owned by Newmont Corporation, and
Western Copper and Gold Corporation’s Casino project. For more information visit www.whitegoldcorp.ca.
