# Near Surface Drilling Continues to Expand and Confirm Gold Mineralization
Near Surface Drilling Continues to Expand and Confirm Gold
Mineralization
Intersects 10.05 grams/tonne gold Over 8.59 metres including 82.80 grams/tonne
gold over 0.92 metres
Toronto, Ontario (December cc, 2025) – Red Pine Exploration Inc. (TSXV: RPX, OTCQB:
RDEXF) (“Red Pine” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce gold (“Au”) assay results from
eighteen (18) drill holes for 2,233 metres (“m”) from the ongoing drill program at its Wawa Gold
Project, Ontario. The drill program is designed to define and extend near-surface gold
mineralization in the areas with open pit potential that are being evaluated in the ongoing work
being done to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) (See Press Release dated
October 29, 2025).
Drilling Highlights (Table 1 and Figure 1)
• Significant near-surface intersections in a drilling gap in the Jubilee Shear in hole SD-25-
593
o 4.63 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”) over 13.25 m core length, including 18.60
g/t Au over 1.47 m and 14.70 g/t Au over 0.88 m
o 35.10 g/t Au over 0.94 m
• 10.05 g/t Au over 8.59 m including 51.55 g/t Au over 1.56 m, including 82.80 g/t Au over
0.92 m in SD-25-616 from infill drilling in the Jubilee area.
Michael Michaud, President and CEO of Red Pine commented: “We are pleased with our recent
drill results that continue to identify significant zones of near-surface gold mineralization within
areas of the Jubilee Shear that were sparsely tested or untested in historical drilling programs in
the near surface crown pillars of the former mines. These results highlight the potential to expand
the mineral inventory and reduce future stripping requirements.
Additionally, our infill and continuity-focused drilling aimed at evaluating open-pit potential has
confirmed the presence of continuous gold mineralization and indicates that additional high-grade
zones remain to be discovered as drill spacing tightens across priority targets.
The Company is also pleased to announce the selection of DRA Global Limited to complete the
PEA for the Wawa Gold Project. We remain on track to complete the PEA in the first half of 2026.”
Drilling Program
Red Pine recently initiated a diamond drilling program to confirm and extend gold mineralization
in the areas with open pit potential along the Jubilee Shear that are being evaluated in the ongoing
work being done to complete a PEA (see press release of October 29, 2025).
The new results demonstrate that gold mineralization in the Jubilee Shear extends to surface in
the crown pillars of the historical mines and that significant zones of mineralization remain to be
discovered in areas that were sparsely or untested in historical drilling programs. With additional
infill drilling, the new zone of gold mineralization intersected in SD-25-593 has the potential to
expand the mineral resource with open pit potential in the Jubilee Shear. The intersection in SD-
25-616 could also increase the high-grade mineral inventory available in the areas with open pit
potential.

*Intercepts are calculated using a 0.40 g/t Au cut-off and a maximum of 6.0 m of internal dilution with no
capping applied and are reported over core lengths. True widths are estimated to vary between 50 to 95%
of the reported core length in the Jubilee Shear.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control ("QA/QC") Measures
Individual drill core samples are labelled and sawn in half along a pre-marked cutting line. A
consistent half-core sample is then placed in an individual numbered plastic sample bag that is
sealed. The remaining half-core samples are kept at the Company’s core storage facility located
on the Wawa Gold project. Quarter-core duplicates are taken from certain samples to define the
variability of gold distribution. Groups of samples are then placed into durable rice bags sealed
with security seals to be transported by commercial carrier for analysis at Activation Laboratories
Ltd. (Actlabs), Ancaster, Ontario. NQ core assays are obtained by 50-gram fire-assay with a AA
finish or by 1-kilogram metallic screen fire assay. The 1-kilogram metallic screen assay method
is selected for samples anticipated to contain coarse gold and when the original fire-assay returns
results greater or equal to 2.25 g/t Au. The residual coarse reject portions of the samples remain
in storage for a minimum 90-day period if further work or verification is needed.
As part of its QA/QC program, Red Pine inserts external gold standards (low- to high-grade) and
blanks every 20 samples and routinely inserts blanks immediately after samples with visible gold.
Quarter core duplicates are routinely inserted to evaluate the natural variability of gold
mineralization. Assay certificates are sent to at least three members of the senior management
team, and they are directly accessible from the WebLIMS portal of Actlabs. Approximately 5% of
the pulps and coarse rejects analyzed at Actlabs are sent to Agat Laboratories in Thunder Bay
for umpire testing.
