The\ndrilling tested high-priority Whistler Orbit drill targets seeking to\ndelineate new gold-copper mineralized porphyry intrusions and extend known\nmineral systems.\n * Systematically Testing District-Scale Mineral Systems: The 100% owned\n53,700-acre Whistler land package extends well beyond the existing estimated\nmineral resources. In the north, the Whistler Orbit represents a classic\n'porphyry cluster' spanning a 7.5 km by 4.5 km area, which contains the\nexisting Whistler and Raintree deposits. In the south, the Island Mountain\nmineral system hosts an inferred mineral resource alongside additional\nhigh-priority exploration targets. The Company believes that the emerging\nMuddy Creek mineral system has the potential to host intrusion-related gold\nmineralization.\n * Building an Exploration Pipeline: The Whistler Gold-Copper Project hosts 5.41\nMoz AuEq of estimated indicated mineral resources and 4.97 Moz AuEq\nof estimated inferred mineral resources across the Whistler, Raintree West\nand Island Mountain deposits. The March 2026 Whistler initial assessment,\nwhich included a preliminary economic assessment (\"PEA\")(1), modeled an\nestimated after-tax NPV5% of US$2.04 billion and internal rate of return\n(\"IRR\") of 33.0%, with an estimated payback on initial capital of 2.1 years.\nCrucially, the study conservatively incorporates only the indicated mineral\nresources from just the Whistler deposit, one of three deposits within the\noverall Project mineral resources. The PEA provides a base case economic\nframework for the Project and a robust investment thesis for continued\ntechnical evaluation, de-risking and advancement.\n * Sample Processing: On-site core logging and sampling is well advanced. The\nCompany anticipates initial assay results, including from regional mapping and\nprospecting, in the coming weeks and through to the end of 2026, subject to\nlaboratory turnaround times.\nTim Smith, Chief Executive Officer of U.S. GoldMining, commented: \"Our 2026\ndrilling program concluded safely, on schedule and on budget. We drilled a\nrecord 7,493 meters across 17 drill holes testing 10 individual target areas\nfor potential new zones of gold-copper mineralization. By targeting the\nWhistler Orbit, we are aggressively hunting for the next major porphyry center\npotentially situated right next door to our primary Whistler deposit, which\nunderpins our robust base case PEA. Expanding across our district-scale\nproperty, we made exciting progress on exploration target areas at Island\nMountain, Muddy Creek and Long Lake Hills.
