RPX GOLD’S DRILLING EXTENDS NEAR SURFACE GOLD MINERALIZATION
AND ALONG STRIKE
ASSAY RESULTS OF UP TO 30.12 g/t GOLD OVER 3.39 METRES
Toronto, Ontario – May 27, 2026 – RPX Gold Inc. (“RPX Gold” or the “Company”) (TSXV: RPX. OTCQB:
RDEXF) is pleased to announce gold assay results from its 2025-2026 drilling program at its Wawa Gold
Project, Ontario. The drilling program was designed to confirm the continuity of, and potentially extend, near
surface gold mineralization in the area of the open pits defined in the 2026 Preliminary Economic
Assessment (“2026 PEA”). These new assay results will be included in the updated mineral resource
estimate (“MRE””) planned for later this year and will be reflected in the prefeasibility study (“PFS”) targeted
for H1 2027.
Highlights (See Figure 1 and Table 2):
• 2025-2026 drilling program suggests the possibility of joining the North and South
pits evaluated in the 2026 PEA
• Results include:
o 13.82 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) over 4.94 metres (“m”) core length,
including 55.20 g/t Au over 1.04 m in SD-26 639
o 23.20 g/t Au over 1.18 m and 2.09 g/t Au over 5.37 m, including 9.67 g/t Au over
0.78 m in SD-26-636
o 8.77 g/t Au over 13.33 m, including 30.12 g/t Au over 3.39 m in SD-26-626
o 3.33 g/t Au over 16.78 m, including 19.40 g/t Au over 0.97 m in SD-26-627
o 2.38 g/t Au over 14.49 m, including 8.94 g/t Au over 1.31 m and 9.32 g/t Au over
0.88 m in SD-25-625
o 4.63 g/t 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
Michael Michaud, President and CEO of RPX Gold, commented “The recent results from the drilling
program continue to demonstrate the continuity of gold mineralization in the Jubilee deposit and further
increase our confidence in the updated MRE we plan to complete later this year in advance of the PFS.
We are also excited by the drilling completed outside of the open pits defined in the recent 2026 PEA, which
has extended the gold mineralization beyond the current mineral resources by over 100 m. In particular,
drilling completed between the North and South open pits have confirmed the continuity of gold
mineralization and have further validated our geological interpretation of the deposit. The high-grade
intercepts from the corridor between the North and South open pits returned 13.82 g/t Au over 4.94 m and
8.77 g/t Au over 13.33 m, confirming that meaningful gold mineralization persists along strike in an area
that was previously undrilled at this density. We are especially encouraged to see strong grades and broad
mineralized intervals extending along strike in areas that were not incorporated into the 2026 PEA. These
results support the potential for future open pit expansion and present the opportunity to further evaluate
the connection of the two open pits as drilling continues. It is rewarding for the technical team to see the
drilling confirm our internal geological models while continuing to identify opportunities to enhance the scale
and development potential of the Wawa Gold Project.
We will continue to test the near surface strike extension of the deposit between the two open pits as well
as test the deeper resources part of the underground mine outlined in the 2026 PEA. We also plan to test
several of the exploration targets identified in the 2025-2026 drilling program later this year.
Our focus remains to advance the PFS to completion which is anticipated in H1 2027. The activities to
advance the PFS represent a de-risking of the Wawa Gold Project, which we believe will add value at every
step along the way.”
Results from the 2025-2026 Drilling Program
The 2025-2026 drilling program targeted gold mineralization in areas of open-pit potential along the Jubilee
Shear. The results announced today 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 either sparsely tested or untested in historical drilling programs.
In the Jubilee mine area, drilling within and near the edges of the South Pit extended and uncovered new
areas of high-grade gold mineralization (Figure 1 and Table 2). These new drilling intersections, particularly
in SD-25-616 which intersected 10.05 g/t Au over 8.59 m including 82.80 g/t Au over 0.92 m (see press
release of December 16, 2025), SD-26-626 and SD-26-639, could increase the inventory of high-grade
gold mineralization in the South Pit area.
In the gap between the South and North pits, near-surface drilling extended gold mineralization with open-
pit potential to surface (Figure 1 and Table 2). This includes the significant intersection in SD-25-593 which
intersected 4.63 g/t Au over 13.25 m, including 18.60 g/t Au over 1.47 m (see press release of December
16, 2025).
The drilling program has also validated historical drilling results in targeted areas which improves our
confidence in the block model supporting the 2026 PEA.
New 2026 Drilling Program
RPX recently initiated a diamond drilling program to confirm, and potentially extend, gold mineralization in
the areas with open-pit and underground potential along the Jubilee Shear that are being evaluated in the
ongoing work being done to complete the PFS (see press release of May 20, 2026).
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, RPX Gold 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.
