HQ and NQ size core samples were cut in half and sampled
predominantly at 2.0m intervals. Assay values are weighted
averages. The true width of the mineralized intervals has not yet
been determined.
Copper Equivalent (CuEq) is calculated based on
US$ 4.02/lb Cu, US$ 2105.6/oz Au, US$ 25.16/oz Ag, $US 20.99/lb Mo.
These prices represent the approximate metal prices and
calculations assume 95% metal recoveries.

2024 Camp Creek Exploration
Summary
The 2024 drill program at the Camp Creek
Cu-Au-Ag-Mo Porphyry Target consisted of five diamond drill holes
totaling 6335.07m of which 3247.10m is covered in this release. For
previously released 2024 Camp Creek assay results see NR’s dated
July 25th and August 6th.
The 2024 program was successful in its two-fold
approach to test for high-grade areas within the known extents of
copper porphyry mineralization at Camp Creek as well as expand
laterally upon the mineralized footprint. Recent step-out drilling
has also identified two new zones of near-surface,
high-sulphidation style gold mineralization returning 4.65m of 6.15
g/t Au within 61.5m of 0.89 g/t Au from hole THN24-291 and 8.00m of
4.52 g/t Au within 114.50m of 0.53 g/t Au from hole THN24-307.
Future exploration efforts will aim to further
define high-grade zones within the Camp Creek porphyry as well as
determine the potential for significant high-sulphidation gold
mineralization. Additionally, exploration efforts will focus on
developing the district scale potential of the area including
testing new porphyry targets that have been identified east along
the Camp Creek structure at Cirque and East Cirque. Additional
assay results are pending from the 2024 drill program at the Cirque
and Trifecta targets, located 3km east and 1.5km southeast
respectively from the Camp Creek porphyry.
Technical Discussion
THN24-307 was drilled at an azimuth of 155.6
degrees with a dip of -83 degrees to a total depth of 1443.10m.
Hole 307 was planned to test an interpreted zone of high-grade
mineralization between previously released holes THN22-221 and
THN21-184 on the northern side of Camp Creek and was successful in
intercepting broad zones of Cu-Au-Ag-Mo mineralization. THN24-307
returned 1358.57m of 0.35% CuEq, including 647.83m of 0.49% CuEq,
and including 261.72m 0.61% CuEq.
In addition to broad intervals of porphyry-style
mineralization, a shallow gold dominant zone hosting
high-sulphidation style mineralization was observed from 83.50m to
198.00m depth returning 4.52 g/t Au over 8.00m within 26.00m of
1.89 g/t Au, all within a broader 114.50m interval of 0.53 g/t
Au.

THN24-307.
THN24-294 was collared from the same drill pad
as previously released hole THN24-291 and drilled at an azimuth of
237.8 degrees with a dip of -80.5 degrees to a total depth of
1553.00m. The objective of hole THN24-294 was to expand the
mineralization footprint to the northwest as a 235m step-out from
hole THN24-291. THN24-294 returned broad intervals of Cu-Au-Mo-Ag
mineralization assaying 929.50m of 0.25% CuEq, including 124.00m of
0.42% CuEq.
THN24-297 was collared from the same drill pad
as THN24-291 and THN24-294 and was drilled at an azimuth of 150
degrees and a dip of -50 degrees. This hole was planned to target
the upper high-sulphidation gold zone observed in the previously
released hole THN24-291 as an extension of the Talisker Gold Zone
located 400m to the northeast. The zone of semi-massive gold rich
pyrite was not observed at this shallower angle and the hole ended
at a final depth of 251m.

Camp Creek at -400m below sea level.
Figure 5. NQ Core Photographs of Mineralization
from Hole THN24-294.
Porphyry mineralization is hosted in the
Cretaceous aged diorite Porphyry X unit, a crowded plagioclase
porphyry characterized by well-defined stacked biotite, a feature
typical of mineral-related porphyry phases. Mineralization is also
hosted within Triassic Stuhini Group sedimentary rocks, which are
intruded by the porphyry phases. Mineralization consists dominantly
of chalcopyrite, molybdenite and pyrite as disseminations, fracture
fill and within porphyry-style veins. Pyrite is dominate in the
upper part of the hole with chalcopyrite and molybdenite
mineralization increasing with depth. Alteration assemblages
transition from advanced argillic at surface, into a pronounced
zone of strong phyllic alteration and ultimately into potassic
assemblages around the core of the system. In hole THN24-294 the
mineralized Porphyry X unit was first observed at 1263.00m and
occurs as a series of dykes intruding hornfels siltstone up to
1480.40m and are cut by post mineral dykes. The remainder of the
hole was hornfels siltstones with one narrow post mineral dyke to
1553.00m. In THN24-307, Porphyry X was first observed at 807.00m
interspersed with hornfels and post-mineral dykes until
1398.45m.

Quality Assurance & Quality Control
Quality assurance and quality control protocols
for drill core sampling was developed by Brixton. Core samples were
mostly taken at 1.0 to 2.0m intervals. Blank, duplicate (lab pulp)
and certified reference materials were inserted into the sample
stream for at least every 20 drill core samples. Core samples were
cut in half, bagged, zip-tied and sent directly to ALS Minerals
preparation facility in Whitehorse, Yukon or Langley, British
Columbia depending on available lab capacity. ALS Minerals
Laboratories is registered to ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 17025
accreditations for laboratory procedures. Samples were analyzed at
ALS Laboratory Facilities in North Vancouver, British Columbia for
gold by fire assay with an atomic absorption finish, whereas Ag,
Pb, Cu and Zn and 48 additional elements were analyzed using four
acid digestion with an ICP-MS finish. Over limits for gold were
analyzed using fire assay and gravimetric finish. The standards,
certified reference materials, were acquired from CDN Resource
Laboratories Ltd., of Langley, British Columbia and the standards
inserted varied depending on the type and abundance of
mineralization visually observed in the primary sample. Blank
material used consisted of non-mineralized siliceous landscaping
rock. A copy of the QAQC protocols can be viewed at the Company’s
website.
