West Red Lake Gold Expands High-Grade Zone in South Austin

with 36.85 g/t Au over 6.9m, 92.39 g/t Au over 2m and 8.79

g/t Au over 15.5m

West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (“West Red Lake Gold” or “WRLG” or the “Company”) (TSXV:

WRLG) (OTCQB: WRLGF) is pleased to report drill results from its 100% owned Madsen Mine

located in the Red Lake Gold District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.

“The high -grade panel of gold mineralization the team is currently defining and expanding in

South Austin has been delivering exceptional grades and thicknesses ,” said Shane Williams,

President & CEO . “Archaean lode -gold vein systems like Madsen are well known for having

pockets of mineralization that are often discrete, very high-grade and require tight-spaced drilling

to properly define. The success we are having in South Austin with the underground definition

program underscores the importance of getting the drills deeper in the syst em and into high

priority areas of the deposit so that additional high-grade pockets and lenses can be discovered,

drilled off and integrated into the mine plan.”

The drill results featured in this news release are focused on the high -grade South Austin Zone,

which currently contains an Indicated mineral resource of 474,600 ounces (“oz”) grading 8.7

grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”), with an additional Inferred resource of 31,800 oz grading 8.7

g/t Au.

These results further expand on the high-grade panel of gold mineralization within South Austin,

which has been a key focus of definition drilling in 2025 (Figure 1). The results highlighted from

drill bay 09-4300 have increased confidence in the eastern portion of the lens, while drilling

from the 11-4420 drill station ha s helped to validate the len s down plunge to the east .

Additional results from this area were previously announced on May 27, 2025 , where drilling

returned 61.51 g/t Au over 12.1m , 43.54 g/t Au over 8.35m and 24.61 g/t Au over 11.2m and

on February 26, 2025, where drilling returned 114.26 g/t Au over 10.6m, 77.90 g/t Au over 3m

and 24.48 g/t Au over 8.5m.

[1] Mineral resources are estimated at a cut-off grade of 3.38 g/t Au and a gold price of US1,800/oz. Please refer to the technical report
