Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - February 10, 2026) - Scottie Resources Corp. (TSXV: SCOT) (OTCQB: SCTSF) (FSE: SR80) ("Scottie" or the "Company") is pleased to report new assays from its 2025 drilling of various zones within the Blueberry Contact Zone, at the Scottie Gold Mine Project ("Scottie Gold Mine" or the "Project"). The road-accessible Project is located 35 kilometres north of Stewart, BC, and is the subject of a newly released Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") entitled Scottie Gold Mine Project (Bird et al., October 28, 2025, Scottie Gold Mine Project, SEDAR+).
Scottie continues to deliver strong results from its 2025 drill program at the Blueberry Contact Zone, reinforcing the quality and continuity of high-grade mineralization withing the Scottie Gold Mine Project. The latest assays include multiple high-grade gold intercepts from both the BB Vein and Fifi Vein zones, highlighted by 30.42 g/t gold over 5.60 metres and 9.67 g/t gold over 8.85 metres.
These zones represent shallow well-defined areas of mineralization that form an important component of the early underground mine plan outline in the Project's recently release PEA. The results further demonstrate strong grade continuity across wide vein zones, supporting confidence in mine design assumptions and near-term production potential.
Ongoing geological modelling and re-interpretation, incorporating the full dataset from the 2025 drilling campaign continues to refine the Company's understanding of the Blueberry Contact Zone. This work is directly informing target generation and drill prioritization for the upcoming field season with a focus on expanding known high-grade zones and testing new conceptual targets emerging from the evolving geological model.
"These results continue to validate the strength of the Blueberry Contact Zone, delivering multiple high-grade intercepts from vein zones integral to the early years of our underground mine plan," said Thomas Mumford, President of Scottie Resources. "We're seeing improving continuity across wide, high-grade structures, which is encouraging from both a mining and development perspective. We continue to incorporate last years drilling into our modelling, further augmenting our drill planning for this coming season and providing us confidence in our ability to grow and enhance the value of this system."

About the Scottie Gold Mine Project
Over the past six years, exploration at the Scottie Gold Mine Project has delivered exceptional results — highlighted by the discovery of four new high-grade zones (Blueberry Contact Zone, Domino, D-Zone, and P-Zone) and the expansion of several historically drilled targets (Scottie Gold Mine, C-Zone, Bend Vein, and Stockwork).
A clear spatial relationship has emerged between these high-grade zones and the contact with the Jurassic-aged Texas Creek Plutonic Suite, providing a powerful framework for ongoing targeting. Detailed geological, structural, mineralogical, and geochemical studies now point to a shared mineralizing event across the property — linking the deposits into a broader, interconnected system with significant growth potential.

Quality Assurance and Control
Results from samples taken during the 2025 field season were analyzed at SGS Minerals in Burnaby, BC. The sampling program was undertaken under the direction of Dr. Thomas Mumford. The majority of drill core was NQ in diameter, with select holes of HQ size primarily taken for geomechanical purposes. Prior to sampling drill core was cut in half lengthwise, with half sent for assay and the remaining half kept in Stewart, BC. Standards, blanks, and duplicate samples were taken at intervals and frequencies that meet or exceed industry best practices. A secure chain of custody is maintained in transporting and storing all samples. Gold was assayed using a fire assay with atomic absorption spectrometry and gravimetric finish when required (+9 g/t gold). Analysis by four acid digestion with multi-element ICP-AES analysis was conducted on all samples with silver and base metal over-limits being re-analyzed by emission spectrometry.
Dr. Thomas Mumford, P.Geo., non-independent President of the Company, a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this news release on behalf of the Company.
ABOUT SCOTTIE RESOURCES CORP.
Scottie Resources holds
Scottie's current resource estimate on the Scottie Gold Mine Project includes a total of 703,000 gold ounces at an average grade of 6.1 g/t (Inferred category) in 3.6 millon tonnes, highlighting the development potential for a significant near-surface, high-grade deposit. The Company's strategy is to continue expanding this resource and to define additional mineralization around past-producing mines through systematic drilling and surface exploration.
The Company has recently completed a PEA for the Scottie Gold Mine. The PEA outlines a robust Direct-Ship Ore (DSO) development scenario with strong economics and significant upside through a potential toll-milling option utilizing excess capacity at the nearby Premier mill. The base case DSO project delivers an after-tax NPV(
