This portfolio is built around the Goodwin Copper Nickel Cobalt project in the Bathurst Mining Camp ("BMC") of New Brunswick. The Company drilled 10 holes in the 2025 diamond drilling campaign on the Goodwin copper-nickel-cobalt project. This followed significant copper, nickel and cobalt intercepts from 15 diamond drill holes reported by the Company in 2024. These include a 64.90 meter core interval, grading 2.19% Cu-Eq (copper-nickel-cobalt), including 3.84% Cu-Eq over a 31.20 meter core interval from hole GW24-02 as reported in a news release <a rel="nofollow" href="https://pr.report/kbos">August 7, 2024</a>. Significant gold values were also reported with up to 3.31 grams per tonne over 0.5m in hole GW24-01.The Company discovered a new gold vein at Jake Lee in 2025 and recently reported up to 40.5 g/t gold and 63.30 g/t silver from channel samples cut from the vein. A 200 meter by 400 meter soil anomaly with gold grading up to 0.98 g/t gold lies adjacent to the east and north of the new gold vein. The Jake Lee claims are located 25 kilometers southeast of the Clarence Stream gold deposit where Galway Metals Inc. Clarence Stream is host to a 12.4M tonne indicated resource of 922,000 ounces at a grade of 2.31 g/t gold plus an inferred resource of 16.1m tonnes with 1,334,000 ounces at a grade of 2.60 g/t gold.

A gold soil anomaly extends approximately 3,000 meters by 2,500 meters with gold-bearing samples ranging from 0.005 grams per tonne ("g/t") to 0.683 g/t gold. The results indicate potential extensions to a swarm of quartz veins previously discovered by SLAM. The Company previously reported core intervals include 3,955 g/t gold over 0.1m from the No. 18 vein (<a rel="nofollow" href="https://pr.report/kbpz">December 03, 2020</a>), as well as 162.5 g/t gold over 0.2 m (<a rel="nofollow" href="https://pr.report/kbq0">December 13, 2021</a>) and 56.90 g/t gold over 0.5 m (<a rel="nofollow" href="https://pr.report/kbq1">November 22, 2022</a>) from the Maisie vein.The Company is a project generator and expects to receive significant cash and share payments in 2026.
