The above technical information relating to drill collar location and analytical results have been taken directly from the Banyan Gold news release dated February 4th, 2025. More detailed drilling information, analytical procedures and results are available in the full news release issued by Banyan. Eagle Royalties management believes that although the reported true thickness estimates and drill collar location coordinates are accurate, it cautions that ER does not have detailed geological data or final surveyed locations of the drill hole traces in relation to the claims that are underlain by the ER royalty interests.

As reported by Banyan, the company initiated its 2024 exploration program on June 1 2024, and has completed 118 drill-holes and over 21,000 m of drilling within the Powerline and Airstrip deposit areas. Drilling was reportedly completed in mid-October and to date, Banyan has released results for 98 of the drill holes. Results are pending for an additional 16 drillholes within the boundaries of the ER 2% NSR at the Airstrip resource area.

On September 16th 2024 Banyan reported test recoveries of 93% in samples at Powerline and 90% at Airstrip using multiple conventional mill processing options including gravity recovery in combination with Carbon in Leach ("CIL")/Carbon in Pulp ("CIP") processes, and that work is ongoing for flotation-leach (see complete BYN news release here).

Banyan has also recently announced plans for 2025 work at the AurMac (see Jan 7th BYN news release here), which include a Resource update in Q2 and a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) in Q4.
