RPX Red Pine Exploration Inc

Red Pine Exploration Inc. (TSXV: RPX, OTCQB: RDEXF) (“Red Pine” or the “Company”) continues to report new assay results from its ongoing exploration program. These latest assay results from Red Pine Exploration Inc.'s ongoing exploration program highlight the company's continuous success in discovering significant gold mineralization located in the hanging wall of the Jubilee Shear. The program continues to discover significant gold mineralization in gaps in the 2019 resource to expand the exploration potential in the hanging wall of the Jubilee Shear.

Highlights Include:

• Intersection of significant mineralization in a gap in the 2019 resource in the Jubilee Shear:
  • 10.43 g/t gold over 12.95 metres including 21.71 g/t gold over 0.95 metre and 164.71 g/t gold over 0.52 metre in SD-23-477
• Testing the gaps in the 2019 resource in the Jubilee Shear proved that significant mineralization remains to be discovered.
  • Other intersections of significance outside the 2019 resource in the Jubilee Shear or at the intersection of the Jubilee/Minto B shears include:
    • 10.92 g/t gold over 28.05 metres including 209.1 g/t gold over 1.00 metre in SD-23-442 (press release of September 14, 2023)
    • 8.01 g/t gold over 32.95 metres including 171.0 g/t gold over 1.19 metre in SD-23-451 (press release of October 24, 2023)
    • 6.77 g/t gold over 5.85 metres including 13.73 g/t gold over 2.63 metres in SD-22-412 (press release of May 11, 2023)
    • 5.07 g/t gold over 27.35 metres including 20.14 g/t gold over 1.11 metre and 70.90 g/t gold over 1.14 metre in SD-22-414 (press release of February 23, 2023)
    • 3.80 g/t gold over 36.94 metres including 11.01 g/t gold over 5.60 metres in SD-23-456 (press release of December 18, 2023)
    • 9.57 g/t gold over 10.95 metres including 83.71 g/t gold over 1.00 metre in SD-23-457 (press release of November 15, 2023)
    • 3.35 g/t gold over 6.95 metres including 20.10 g/t gold over 1.01 metre in SD-23-472 (press release of January 11, 2024)
• Continuing to expansion over the footprints of gold mineralization in the Minto B Shear
  • Gold mineralization is now confirmed to be present in the Minto B Shear over a strike length of 900 metres and has been systematically tested over 700 metres.

"The consistent high-grade results in both the hanging wall and footwall are very promising and provide proof to our concept of a potential shallow open pit model. We're uncovering significant mineralization where gaps once existed in the 2019 resource. Progress is steady and consistent with over 1200 assays pending." - Quentin Yarie, President and CEO of Red Pine Exploration”.

Assay results presented over core length. True width for the intersections varies between 50 to 95% depending on the intersected geological structure.

Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC") Measures

Drill core samples were transported in security-sealed bags for analyses to Actlabs in Ancaster, Ontario. Individual samples were labelled, placed in plastic sample bags and sealed. Groups of samples were then placed into durable rice bags and shipped. The residual coarse reject portions of the samples remain in storage if further work or verification is needed.

Red Pine has implemented a quality-control program to comply with best practices in the sampling and analysis of drill core. As part of its QA/QC program, Red Pine inserts external gold standards (low to high grade) and blanks every 20 samples in addition to random standards, blanks, and duplicates.
