TORONTO, Oct. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- White Gold Corp. (TSX.V: WGO, OTCQX: WHGOF, FRA: 29W) (the “Company”) is pleased to announce the filing of an updated National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) technical report for its White Gold Project, located in Yukon, Canada. The updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) includes the Golden Saddle, Arc, Ryan’s Surprise, and VG deposits, and has an effective date of August 19, 2025. The report titled “2025 Technical Report for the White Gold Project, Dawson Range, Yukon, Canada” was prepared by Dr. Gilles Arseneau, P.Geo., of Arsenau Consulting Services Inc., an independent Qualified Person under NI 43-101. The technical report is available on SEDAR+ (https://www.sedarplus.ca/).

The updated Mineral Resource Estimate continues to demonstrate the size, quality, and growth potential of the Company’s flagship project. The new modelling of the Golden Saddle and Arc deposits showcase improved geological continuity, stronger grade distribution, and optimized pit designs that collectively enhance overall project economic potential. This significant advancement further positions the project as a large gold resource in both size and grade in an top ranked global mining jurisdiction, with substantial opportunity for additional growth.

The gold resources at the White Gold Project are near surface, almost entirely captured within open pits, and remain open for expansion in multiple directions with further opportunities to increase total resources also existing via additional targets within close proximity (Figure 4). The 2025 exploration program (Figure 5 & 6) has been designed to deliver continued increases to the size of the resource and to advance technical understanding in support of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”). These results form part of the Company’s work program supported by strategic partners including Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (TSX: AEM, NYSE: AEM).

"The updated MRE on our flagship White Gold Project represents another key development for the continued growth and advancement of our resources, which now ranks as one of the highest-grade undeveloped open pittable gold deposits in Canada. Significant opportunities exist to continue to expand the resource size through further drilling on the resource itself, nearby targets, continued optimization of the resource block model and the Target for Further Exploration area which has seen limited exploration to date. We look forward to continuing to demonstrate the gold and critical mineral endowment of our prospective district scale land package in a top jurisdiction which has such a rich history and geological prospectivity," stated David D'Onofrio, Chief Executive Officer.

“This updated Mineral Resource Estimate represents the first step in a staircase of opportunity to continue unlocking value across our flagship deposits,” stated Dylan Langille, Vice President of Exploration. “We’re extremely encouraged by the results of this update and the momentum it brings as we execute an exciting 2025 exploration season. With a significantly expanded exploration program ahead of us, we look forward to building on this foundation by further advancing and growing our existing deposits while continuing to test new high-potential targets across our district-scale land package, on our plethora of gold and critical mineral opportunities,” said Dylan Langille, Vice President of Exploration.

The White Gold Project is located approximately 95 km south of Dawson City in west-central Yukon, Canada (Figure 1) and is located 33 km north from the advanced Coffee project owned by Newmont Corporation (NYSE: NEM, TSX: NGT), which Newmont has entered into an agreement to sell to Fuerte Metals Corporation  (TSXV: FMT, OTCQB: FUEMF) with Indicated Resources of 2.96 Moz within 80Mt at 1.15 g/t Au, and Inferred Resources of 0.8 Moz within 21Mt at 1.17 g/t Au⁽²⁾⁽³⁾ and 58 km northwest of Western Copper and Gold Corporation’s (TSX: WRN, NYSE: WRN), Casino project which has Measured and Indicated Resources of 2,490.7 Mt grading 0.18 g/t Au, 0.14% Cu for 14.8 million ounces of gold and 7.6 billion pounds of copper, and Inferred Resources of 1.4 Mt grading 0.14 g/t Au, 0.14% Cu for 6.3 million ounces of gold and 3.1 billion pounds of copper⁽⁴⁾⁽³⁾.

1. Mineral Resources which are not Mineral Reserves have not demonstrated economic viability.
2. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
3. The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
4. The Mineral Resources in this report were estimated using the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the CIM Council.
5. Open pittable resources are constrained by GEOVIA Whittle optimized pit shells using a 0.3 g/t Au cut-of grade and are considered to have reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction, assuming a gold price of US$2,250 per ounce, a C$:US$ exchange rate of 0.70, an open pit mining cost of CDN$3.25 per tonne, a processing and G&A cost of CDN$27.50 per tonne milled, and gold recoveries of 92% for Golden Saddle, and VG, along with 85% for Arc and Ryan’s Surprise. Underground resources assume a mining cost of CDN$120/tonne.
6. The following bulk density values for mineralized material were used: Golden Saddle (2.62 – 2.65 t/m³), Arc (2.55 t/m³), Ryan’s Surprise (2.63 t/m³) and VG (2.65 t/m³).
7. High-grade gold assay values have been capped as follows: Golden Saddle and Arc (8 – 18 g/t Au), Ryan’s Surprise (9 g/t Au) and VG (3 – 10 g/t Au).
8. The Statement of Estimates of Mineral Resources has been compiled by Mr. Gilles Arseneau, Ph.D., P.Geo, of ARSENEAU Consulting Services (“ACS”). Mr. Arseneau has sufficient experience that is relevant to the style of mineralization and type of deposit under consideration and to the activity that he has undertaken to qualify as a Qualified Person as defined in the CIM Standards of Disclosure.
9. All numbers are rounded. Overall numbers may not be exact due to rounding.
   

The current MRE for the White Gold project was carried out by Arseneau Consulting Services (“ACS”) of Vancouver, B.C. and is reported in accordance with the guidelines of the Canadian Securities Administrators National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”) and has been estimated in conformity with generally accepted Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) “Estimation and Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Best Practices” guidelines. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.

The MRE presents updated estimates for the Golden Saddle, Arc, Ryan’s Surprise and VG deposits.

The basis for the updated MRE at the Golden Saddle and Arc deposits was a re-interpretation which allowed wireframes to enclose mineralized zones with composited assays greater than 0.20 grams per tonne gold. Historical modeling encompassed gold intersections with assays greater than 0.4 g/t gold. The wireframes are therefore grade shells guided by the geology. Wireframes were constructed by White Gold using Leapfrog Geo. All wireframes were verified, validated and accepted by the QP.

The updated MRE was prepared using a block model approach using ordinary kriging interpolation for the Golden Saddle, Arc and VG deposits and inverse distance squared (“ID2”) interpolation for the Ryan’s Surprise deposit. Block model sizes varied between deposits as follows: Golden Saddle and Arc (10 m); Ryan’s Surprise (5 – 10 m); and VG (10 – 20 m). GEMS 6.8.4 software was used for generating gold mineralization solids, a topography surface, and resource estimation. Statistical analysis and resource validations were performed using non-commercial software and with Sage2001. Near surface resources were constrained using GEOVIA Whittle pit optimization software. Pit slopes in rock were assumed at 50° and the MRE assumes a long-term gold price of US$2,250 per ounce. Gold recoveries used were 92% for the Golden Saddle and VG deposits, and 85% for the Arc and Ryan’s Surprise deposits. Gold recoveries are based on metallurgical test work results for the Golden Saddle and Arc deposits and are assumed for the Ryan’s Surprise and VG deposits based on their close similarities to the Arc and Golden Saddle deposits, respectively.

2025 Exploration Programs and Growth Potential

Further significant expansion potential has been identified and is being advanced through the Company’s 2025 Exploration Program (see Company press release dated August 6, 2025). This program is specifically designed to build on the positive momentum of the updated resource estimate by targeting areas of untested or underexplored mineralization and advancing technical studies in support of a future PEA.

Golden Saddle
2025 diamond drilling at Golden Saddle will target a high-grade footwall breccia zone first intersected in historic drilling. While previous drilling confirmed the presence of this mineralization, it has not been systematically explored. Planned drilling will also test the hanging wall, where historic drill holes encountered mineralization that remains unsampled, offering an additional cost-effective opportunity to add near-surface ounces.

Arc
At Arc, drilling will focus on testing the down-dip extension of mineralized zones with the dual purpose of expanding the current resource and providing fresh material for metallurgical test work programs. This work will help refine recovery assumptions and contribute to the economic studies required for a PEA.

Relogging & Resampling Program
In parallel, a systematic relogging and assaying program is underway on historical drill core. This initiative is targeting previously unsampled quartz-carbonate vein–bearing intervals in both the footwall and hanging wall host rocks adjacent to known mineralized domains. These efforts are intended to cost-effectively capture additional mineralization that was not included in prior models, further strengthening the resource base.

White Gold Project Resource Details

Golden Saddle Deposit

The Golden Saddle deposit is located 95 km south of Dawson City on the Company’s White Gold property, which is supported by the fully operational Thistle exploration camp with airstrip and barge access, and up to 100-person capacity. The deposit consists of the GS Main, GS Footwall and GS West zones and together the zones define mineralization over a 1,500 m strike length and up to 725 m down dip. Currently, the GS Main is the most significant zone in terms of estimated ounces and overall grade; containing approximately 95% of the Indicated ounces within the overall Golden Saddle deposit. GS Main Zone which contains a consistent high-grade core of 12.3 million tonnes grading 2.84 g/t representing 1,100,000 ounces in the Indicated category and 1.4 million tonnes grading 2.03 g/t for 93,000 ounces in the inferred category at a 1.0 g/t cut-off. At a 3.0 g/t cut-off, the high-grade core contains 4.4 million tonnes grading 4.88 g/t for 695,000 ounces in the indicated category and 269,000 tonnes grading 4.07 g/t for 35,000 ounces in the inferred category. Gold mineralization at the Golden Saddle deposit is hosted in a meta-volcanic and meta-intrusive assemblage broadly consisting of felsic orthogneiss, amphibolite, and ultramafic units. Gold generally occurs as micron-scale blebs along fractures or encapsulated by pyrite, and as visible gold (less than 5 mm in size) located as free grains in quartz. Mineralization is present in quartz veins and stockwork or breccia with disseminated pyrite. Drill hole intersected gold mineralization is spatially co-incident with structures, and structures or faults which are interpreted to be the primary conduits for hydrothermal fluids responsible for gold deposition. The thicknesses of the mineralization and breccia zones are variable from 5 m to over 50 m, and they pinch and swell along strike. A consistent higher-grade core (> 3 g/t Au) occurs within the main zone at Golden Saddle. Gold mineralization at the Golden Saddle deposit remains open in all directions and is known to extend beyond the limits of the current resource estimate, however, the mineralization in these areas does not currently meet the criteria to be classified as Mineral Resources.

Arc Deposit
The Arc deposit is located approximately 400 m south of the Golden Saddle and consists of two zones, the Arc Main and Arc Footwall zones, both trending E-NE and dipping to the north at approximately 50 degrees. Mineralization at the Arc has been defined over 1,200 m in strike length and up to 450 m down dip with mineralization open along strike and down dip. Gold mineralization at the Arc deposit is less well understood than the Golden Saddle, which is partially a function of drilling at the Arc deposit being more widely spaced. Gold mineralization is hosted within a meta-sedimentary sequence dominated by banded (graphitic) quartzite and interbedded pelitic biotite schist that is cross-cut by numerous felsic to intermediate dikes and sills.

Gold mineralization appears to be focused within breccia and shear zones that have been affected by hydrothermal alteration and sulphide mineralization. Drilling has defined an upper main zone as well as a lower footwall zone of anomalous gold but of lesser tenure than the main upper zone. Mineralization remains open to the east, west and at depth. The occurrence of gold at Arc is not well understood but appears to be associated with disseminated and veined pyrite, arsenopyrite and graphite.

Ryan’s Surprise Deposit
Ryan’s Surprise is located 1.5 km west of the Golden Saddle deposit, along a 6.5 km long x 1 km wide north-northwest trend of anomalous gold and arsenic in soils (“Ryan’s Trend”), which also hosts several other prospective early-stage targets in close proximity with significant surface gold mineralization and represent further potential for expansion of this project. Gold mineralization at the Ryan’s Surprise deposit is primarily hosted within a meta-sedimentary sequence dominated by banded (graphitic) quartzite and interbedded pelitic biotite schist cross-cut by numerous felsic – intermediate dikes and sills.

Gold mineralization appears to be focused within breccia and shear zones that have been affected by hydrothermal alteration and sulphide mineralization. Recent drilling has defined multiple subparallel zones that are host to gold-bearing sulphide mineralization including arsenopyrite and pyrite, and range in true width from < 1 m to in some instances, > 10 m. The mineralization footprint at the Ryan’s Surprise deposit measures approximately 550 m north-south by 500 m east-west to a vertical depth of 650 m remains open along strike and at depth. Metallurgical work, gold characterization and deportment studies are required to further determine accurate gold recoveries. However, host rocks, alteration and sulphide mineralization at Ryan’s Surprise display many similarities to the Arc Deposit.

VG Deposit
The VG deposit is located approximately 85km south of Dawson City and 11km north of the Golden Saddle deposit. Gold mineralization at the VG deposit is hosted in quartz ± carbonate veins, stockwork and breccia zones, and pyrite veinlets, including cubic pyrite and visible gold, associated with intense-quartz-carbonate-sericite alteration, pervasive K-spar and hematite emplaced along en-echelon faults or shear zones. Visually, the style of gold mineralization and alteration appears identical to the Golden Saddle deposit, along with similar dominant host rocks of biotite-feldspar (± augen)-quartz gneisses. To date, no metallurgical testwork has been performed on the VG mineralization, however given its close similarities to Golden Saddle, gold recoveries are assumed to be similar.  Opportunities exist at the VG deposit to quickly upgrade a significant portion of Inferred Resources to Indicated, as well as for expansion of gold mineralization at depth and along strike. There are also several other prospective targets on the property which have received limited exploration work and offer potential for additional discoveries.
