1. 2,300,000 common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") at a price of $6.50 per Common Share, to be issued on a prospectus-exempt basis pursuant to the ‘listed issuer financing exemption' ("LIFE") under applicable Canadian securities laws (the "LIFE Offering"); and

The LIFE Offering will be a combination of Common Shares and CFT Shares for gross proceeds of $22,015,000, and together with the Private Placement Offering will result in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of $30,034,000.

The net proceeds from the sale of Common Shares will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The gross proceeds from the sale of CFT Shares and FT Shares will be used for further exploration, mineral resource expansion and drilling at the combined Kitsault Valley project, located in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, as well as for working capital as permitted, as Canadian Exploration Expenses as defined in paragraph (f) of the definition of "Canadian exploration expense" in subsection 66.1(6) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and "flow through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 127(9) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) that will qualify as "flow-through mining expenditures" and "BC flow-through mining expenditures" as defined in subsection 4.721(1) of the Income Tax Act (British Columbia), which will be renounced with an effective date no later than December 31, 2025 to the initial purchasers of CFT Shares and FT Shares.

The Offerings are expected to close on or about October 23, 2025, or such other date as may be agreed to by the Company and the Underwriters (the "Closing"). Closing is subject to the Company receiving all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange and NYSE American (together, the "Exchanges") to list, on the date of Closing, the Common Shares, the CFT Shares and the FT Shares.

The LIFE Offering will be made in accordance with the ‘listed issuer financing exemption' in Part 5A of National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions ("NI 45-106"), to purchasers in any province of Canada, except Québec.

Prospective investors should read this offering document before making an investment decision.

The FT Shares will be offered to accredited investors in each of the provinces of Canada pursuant to applicable prospectus exemptions in accordance with NI 45-106 and will have a statutory hold period of four months and one day from Closing.

In connection with the Offerings, the Underwriters will receive an aggregate cash fee equal to 5.0% of the gross proceeds of the Offerings. Eventus Capital Corp. is a special advisor to the Company.
