Gold Finder Provides Update on Exploration Activities in Northwestern Ontario
Gold Finder Resources (OTCQB: GLDFF) provided updates on its exploration activities across five properties in northwestern Ontario's gold belts. The company's West Madsen property (5,936 hectares) has completed summer 2025 prospecting, with results pending. At the Slate Falls property, historical samples showed impressive results of up to 331.8 g/t gold and 3,025 g/t silver. The Pipestone Bay property's western exploration yielded modest results (2-74 ppb gold), while the 991 Zone remains a drill-ready target. The Pakwash North property (40% ownership) awaits results from Kinross Gold's nearby 8,000-meter drill program. The McDonough property review identified two areas for follow-up exploration following 2023's drilling program.

Slate Falls Property
The 100 %-owned Slate Falls property is located within the southwestern extension of the Meen-Dempster Greenstone Belt, between the Red Lake and Pickle Lake gold camps. The 5,100-hectare property covers key regional-scale structures that correlate with numerous high-grade gold and silver showings identified over a 10-kilometre trend within the claim package. Previously reported work in 2019 and 2020, targeted east-west shear zones containing high-grade quartz veins where grab samples returned values of up to 331.8 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 3,025 g/t silver, and follow-up drilling returned values of up to 78.5 g/t gold and 73.7 g/t silver over 0.24 metres.
Subsequent work on the property has included an airborne high-resolution magnetic (MAG) survey and a structural study that incorporated the MAG survey data with all known lithological and mineralogical information and structural measurements. The resulting interpretation highlighted major east-northeast-trending shear zones and fold structures across the property (see structural interpretation map).
The next phase of target development fieldwork will include a fresh look at the high-grade Trail and Sanderson zones. Mapping and sampling will also be carried out on showings in the eastern part of the property, which Gold Finder has never visited, such as the FTM Zone (historical grab samples up to 149 g/t gold and 169 g/t silver) and the Fry Lake #5 Occurrence (3.8 g/t gold and
The Company is actively engaged in discussions with local First Nations regarding an updated Exploration Agreement. Further updates will be provided as they become available.
Pipestone Bay Property
A prospecting program in the western part of the Pipestone Bay Property earlier this summer did not yield any significant gold results from grab samples, with values ranging from <2 to 74 ppb gold. However, several horizons of banded iron formation were identified, which have previously returned anomalous gold values on the property (with a known maximum of 730 ppb gold). Higher-grade values are known to occur along strike to the southeast of the property (e.g. the historical Ledge showings where gold is related to quartz veining near mafic-felsic contact zones and banded iron formation, with values up to 22.1 g/t gold over 0.5 meters in channel samples and 7.7 g/t gold over 0.9m including 30.9 g/t gold over 0.14m in diamond drill core (Singh 2005)). Systematic geological mapping, prospecting and soil sampling is warranted in the western part of the property, followed by backhoe stripping and diamond drilling if warranted.
Meanwhile, the 991 Zone in the eastern part of the property remains a drill-ready target. Only one known drillhole has tested the zone, which is hosted in felsic volcanic rocks at the contact with a folded ultramafic body to the north. The 2004 hole intersected a 200-meter-wide quartz-sericite alteration zone containing anomalous gold and copper values but was drilled parallel to high-grade north-south quartz veins previously identified at the showing, which Gold Finder sampled in 2019, obtaining up to 44.9 g/t gold from grab samples.

The property adjoins the southeastern portion of BTU's Dixie Halo property that was optioned to Kinross Gold in February 2023 and the northern boundary of Kinross's Bruce Lake property (see area claim map). BTU announced on May 20, 2025, that Kinross had commenced a drill program that is planned to include approximately 8,000 metres on various target areas identified as priority locations for potential gold mineralization. Results are expected in early Q4 as reported in BTU's Annual Management's Discussion and Analysis dated August 5, 2025. Should the Kinross drilling program result in a new discovery near the Pakwash North claim boundary, it could enhance the exploration potential of the property.
McDonough Property
A review of all geochemical, geological, and diamond drilling data was completed this summer to understand why 2023 drilling did not intersect significant gold mineralization despite the coincident geochemical and geophysical anomalies which were targeted, and to assess any other potential targets of merit.

Two areas were identified for follow-up geological mapping, prospecting and soil sampling.
The first is to the south of where 2023 drilling took place, towards a regional unconformity (Figure 4). Hole MCD23-04 intersected an intermediate intrusive rock over its final 71 meters, which is similar to the rock type hosting gold and silver mineralization in quartz veins at the Winter Road Lake West Occurrence in the western part of the property, which according to the Ontario Mineral Inventory (OMI) returned 0.435 g/t gold and 2.7 oz/ton silver over 2.13 meters in 1987 diamond drilling.
The second area of interest is north of where 2023 drilling took place, where 2019 field work identified further outcrops of intermediate intrusive rock which could be prospective for gold mineralization.
