1911 Gold Corporation (TSX-V: AUMB) (OTCQX: AUMBF) (FRA: 2KY) is pleased to announce assay results from the underground resource expansion program at the Company’s wholly-owned, operational and fully permitted True North Gold Project, centrally located within the Company’s 100%-owned Rice Lake Gold property, southeast Manitoba, Canada.

The latest assay results are from ten (10) diamond drill holes totaling 4,562 metres, completed as part of the underground resource expansion drill program. Drilling targeted potential extensions of the 710-711 and 007 zones outside the current Mineral Resource Estimate. Both target areas were tested from drill bays on Level 16 (720 m below surface, see Figure 1).

 

Highlights:

• Drilling on the 710-711 vein system confirmed extensions of gold mineralization outside the 2024 MRE, with the following highlighted results:
  • UG16-26-079: Intersected 7.55 grams per tonne gold over 5.00 m (at 277.00 m downhole depth), including 16.65 g/t Au over 1.20 m, including 32.90 g/t Au over 0.50 m, and 25.80 g/t Au over 0.50 m
  • UG16-26-060: Intersected 32.40 g/t Au over 1.10 m (at 197.80 m downhole depth)
  • UG16-26-079: Intersected 7.43 g/t Au over 1.50 m (at 245.90 m downhole depth), including 7.70 g/t Au over 1.00 m
  • UG16-26-054: Intersected 6.84 g/t Au over 2.50 m (at 325.00 m downhole depth), including 11.23 g/t Au over 1.30 m, including 16.60 g/t Au over 0.50 m
  • UG16-26-071: Intersected 3.42 g/t Au over 3.60 m (at 275.90 m downhole depth), including 4.75 g/t Au over 1.20 m
  • UG16-26-069: Intersected 3.51 g/t Au over 2.40 m (at 360.00 m downhole depth), including 5.94 g/t Au over 1.00 m

• Drilling on the 007 vein system intersected the following highlighted results:
  • UG16-26-060: Intersected 21.20 g/t Au over 0.60 m (at 501.80 m downhole depth) and 9.92 g/t Au over 0.60 m (at 504.90 m downhole depth)
  • UG16-26-085: Intersected 7.65 g/t Au over 3.40 m (at 430.80 m downhole depth), including 19.60 g/t Au over 0.60 m
  • UG16-26-069: Intersected 3.51 g/t Au over 2.40 m (at 360.00 m downhole depth), including 5.94 g/t Au over 1.00 m

 

Shaun Heinrichs, President and CEO, stated, “We are pleased to have completed our current exploration drill program from both surface and underground, testing for new resources at True North. The latest high-grade drill results targeting the extensions of the 710-711 and 007 zones, coupled with the results previously released for the L10 Zone, confirm the potential to add new resources for the True North Gold Project, supporting our overall strategy to develop a district-scale project. These results will be incorporated into the updated mineral resource estimate currently underway.”

The exploration drill program at True North, which commenced from surface in October 2024 and from underground in early October 2025, targeted new resources as well as expansion of known zones. The now-completed program comprised one hundred and three (103) surface drill holes totalling 28,475 m (including four drill holes that were abandoned before reaching target depth) and forty-six (46) underground drill holes totalling 17,346 m, targeting the new discoveries and resource expansion target areas.

The Company has commenced work on an updated resource estimate for True North which includes results from exploration drilling as well as the infill and delineation drill program, currently scheduled for completion in the fourth quarter of 2026.

The 710-711 Zone is hosted on the intersection of the Lower Basalt unit and the regional east-west steeply north-dipping L10 Shear Zone. The 007 Zone is hosted on the intersection of the Shoreline Basalt and the 007 Shear Zone, with both zones hosting gold-bearing mineralization associated with veins developed as northwest-trending extensional stockwork and breccia veins and east-west steeply north-dipping shear veins. Veining consists predominantly of quartz with accessory ankerite and albite, with sericite-pyrite and chlorite occurring as veinlets and pervasive alteration halos. Gold occurs with minor pyrite and as free native gold.

The 007 Shear Zone hosts a series of mineralized veins, which are the primary targets of the current resource expansion program at 007 and 710-711 zones. The 007 Shear Zone also hosts the new Shore target, recently the focus of surface and underground exploration drilling and hosted within the San Antonio Gabbro unit located approximately 500 m to the west. The L10 Shear hosts the new SAM SE Target hosted within the San Antonio Gabbro, approximately 500 m to the west of 710-711.

Given the proximity of the lower extent of the 007 Zone to the 710-711 Zone, drilling on both targets was conducted from Level 16 underground.

 

710-711 Zone Resource Expansion Drilling: Discussion of Results

Five drill holes (UG16-26-054, 071, 075, 078 and 079) tested extensions of gold mineralization above the 710-711 Zone resource limit, all successfully intercepting gold-mineralized quartz-carbonate veins up-plunge. Two additional drill holes (UG16-26-056 and 57) tested extensions of gold mineralization to the east and returned no significant results.

 

007 Zone Resource Expansion Drilling: Discussion of Results

Three drill holes (UG16-26-060, 069, and 0085) tested extensions of gold mineralization below the 007 Zone resource limit, all successfully intercepting gold-mineralized quartz-carbonate veins down-plunge.

The latest results have confirmed the potential to define additional gold mineralization in multiple veins outside the 2024 MRE boundary. Gold mineralization was extended by 60 m from the upper resource limit of the 710-711 Zone and over a strike length of 115 m. Gold mineralization was extended by 120 m below the 007 Zone and over a strike length of 150 m, highlighting the potential to further increase and extend mineralization with additional drilling.

Next Steps

1911 Gold has now commenced a mineral resource update for True North expected in Q4/2026, which will include the three discoveries, San Antonio West, San Antonio Southeast, and Shore, as well as the extensions of current resources from the L10, 710-711, 007 and Hinge zones.

Exploration drilling from surface and underground will recommence once results from the recently completed program have been assessed and reviewed, supported by positive results highlighting key areas for follow-up.

The Company’s ongoing infill and delineation drill program on areas contemplated for test mining and the early years of the Preliminary Economic Assessment mine schedule is being conducted from underground with three (3) drill rigs: two (2) on Level 16 and one from the Hinge decline. A fourth underground drill rig will be mobilized upon completion of rehabilitation on Level 26.

Quality Assurance/Quality Controls

Oriented core samples are collected by sawing the drill core in half along the axis, with one-half sampled, placed in plastic sample bags, labelled, sealed, and the other half retained for future reference. Batches are shipped to Activation Laboratories Ltd. (Actlabs), in Thunder Bay, Ontario, for sample preparation and analysis. Samples are dried, crushed to 2 mm and a 1 kg split is pulverized to -200 mesh. Gold analysis is completed by fire assay with an atomic absorption finish on 50 grams of prepared pulp. Samples returning values equal or greater to 10.00 g/t are reanalyzed by fire assay with a gravimetric finish. Total gold analysis (Screen Metallic Sieve) is conducted on highly mineralized samples or the presence of visible gold. Certified gold reference material samples are inserted every 20 samples and blank samples at intervals of one in every 50 samples, with additional blanks inserted after samples hosting visible gold. Repeat third-party gold analyses for 5% of all submitted sample pulps are analyzed at ALS-Chemex Laboratory, North Vancouver, Canada.
