Fueling Exploration and Growth:
Proceeds from this offering will be strategically allocated to two key areas:

The 2021 airborne magnetic survey has shown tremendous structural disruption within the O’Connor Lake area which lies within the Taltson Magmatic Zone. Prospecting and geophysical ground surveying will be used to locate and document additional mineralized zones. The data will be reviewed and prioritized for a drill program in 2025.
General Working Capital: The majority of funds will support continued exploration to help build shareholder value.

Historic assays from the O’Connor Lake property highlight its exciting potential:

*Please note that these assays are not 43-101 compliant.
Unlocking the Potential:
Phase One exploration data will be used to pinpoint the most promising areas for a strategic drilling program.
Ritch Wigham, CEO, commented: “This financing opportunity allows investors to participate in the advancement of a highly prospective project with a long history of positive exploration results. We are confident that Phase One exploration will pave the way for a successful drilling program that unlocks the true potential of the O’Connor Lake property.”
