Both Goliath Resources and Juggernaut Exploration are\npartners within the B-ALL Syndicate (\"B-ALL\"), the optionor of Golden Girl,\nholding respectively, 4% and 13% interest in B-ALL, and as such are important\nstrategic partners of Gold Runner Exploration.\n\nQA/QC\n\nGrab, channels, chip and talus samples were collected by foot with helicopter\nassistance. Prospective areas included, but were not limited to, proximity to\nMINFile locations, placer creek occurrences, regional soil anomalies, and\npotential gossans based on high-resolution satellite imagery. The rock grab\nand chip samples were extracted using a rock hammer, or hammer and chisel to\nexpose fresh surfaces and to liberate a sample of anywhere between 0.5 to 5.0\nkilograms. All sample sites were flagged with biodegradable flagging tape and\nmarked with the sample number. All sample sites were recorded using hand-held\nGPS units (accuracy 3-10 meters) and sample ID, easting, northing, elevation,\ntype of sample (outcrop, sub-crop, float, talus, chip, grab, etc.) and a\ndescription of the rock were recorded on all-weather paper. Samples are then\ninserted in a clean plastic bag with a sample tag for transport and shipping\nto the geochemistry lab. QA/QC samples including blanks, certified reference\nmaterials, and duplicate samples are inserted regularly into the sample\nsequence at a rate of 10%.\n\nAll samples are transported in rice bags sealed with numbered security tags.\nThe rice bags are transported from camp to the MSALABS facilities in Terrace,\nBC. MSALABS is certified with both AC89-IAS and ISO/IEC Standard 17025:2017.\nThe samples undergo preparation via drying, crushing to ~70% of the material\npassing a 2 mm sieve and riffle splitting. The sample splits are weighed and\ntransferred into three plastic jars, each containing between 300 g and 500 g\nof crushed sample material. A 250 g split is pulverized to ensure at least 85%\nof the material passes through a 75 µm sieve. The crushed samples are\ntransported to the MSALABS PhotonAssayTM facility in Prince George, where gold\nconcentrations are quantified via photon assay analysis (method CPA-Au1).\nPhoton assay uses high-energy X-rays (photons) to excite atomic nuclei within\nthe jarred samples, inducing the emission of secondary gamma rays, which are\nmeasured to quantify gold concentrations. Multielement analyses are carried\nout at the MSALABS facilities in Surrey, BC, where 250 g of pulverized splits\nare analyzed via ICF6xx and IMS-230 methods. The IMS-230 method uses 4-acid\ndigestion (a combination of hydrochloric, nitric, perchloric and hydrofluoric\nacids) followed by inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry to\nquantify concentrations of 48 elements. Samples with over-limit results for\nAg, Cu, Pb and Zn undergo ore-grade analysis via the ICF-6xx method (where\n'xx' denotes the target metal). This method employs 4-acid digestion followed\nby inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry.\n\nGold Equivalent (AuEq) metal values are calculated using: Au 4195.60 USD/oz,\nAg 60.95 USD/oz, Cu 6.71 USD/lb, Pb 1661.40 USD/ton and Zn 3426.60 USD/ton on\nOctober 10, 2026. Recoveries are assumed to be as follows: Au 81%, Ag 74%, Cu\n83%, Pb 45% and Zn 0.75% based on other mining and exploration projects in the\nsame Golden Triangle Mining Camp with similar style of high-grade gold\nmineralization where Gold Runner Exploration's Golden Girl project is located\nsuch as the Snip Mine, Eskay Creek, as well as the Brucejack Mine.\n\nQualified Person\n\nThis News Release has been approved by Alan Morris, M.Sc., CPG #10550.

Both Goliath Resources and Juggernaut Exploration are\npartners within the B-ALL Syndicate (\"B-ALL\"), the optionor of Golden Girl,\nholding respectively, 4% and 13% interest in B-ALL, and as such are important\nstrategic partners of Gold Runner Exploration.\n\nQA/QC\n\nGrab, channels, chip and talus samples were collected by foot with helicopter\nassistance. Prospective areas included, but were not limited to, proximity to\nMINFile locations, placer creek occurrences, regional soil anomalies, and\npotential gossans based on high-resolution satellite imagery. The rock grab\nand chip samples were extracted using a rock hammer, or hammer and chisel to\nexpose fresh surfaces and to liberate a sample of anywhere between 0.5 to 5.0\nkilograms. All sample sites were flagged with biodegradable flagging tape and\nmarked with the sample number. All sample sites were recorded using hand-held\nGPS units (accuracy 3-10 meters) and sample ID, easting, northing, elevation,\ntype of sample (outcrop, sub-crop, float, talus, chip, grab, etc.) and a\ndescription of the rock were recorded on all-weather paper. Samples are then\ninserted in a clean plastic bag with a sample tag for transport and shipping\nto the geochemistry lab. QA/QC samples including blanks, certified reference\nmaterials, and duplicate samples are inserted regularly into the sample\nsequence at a rate of 10%.\n\nAll samples are transported in rice bags sealed with numbered security tags.\nThe rice bags are transported from camp to the MSALABS facilities in Terrace,\nBC. MSALABS is certified with both AC89-IAS and ISO/IEC Standard 17025:2017.\nThe samples undergo preparation via drying, crushing to ~70% of the material\npassing a 2 mm sieve and riffle splitting. The sample splits are weighed and\ntransferred into three plastic jars, each containing between 300 g and 500 g\nof crushed sample material. A 250 g split is pulverized to ensure at least 85%\nof the material passes through a 75 µm sieve. The crushed samples are\ntransported to the MSALABS PhotonAssayTM facility in Prince George, where gold\nconcentrations are quantified via photon assay analysis (method CPA-Au1).\nPhoton assay uses high-energy X-rays (photons) to excite atomic nuclei within\nthe jarred samples, inducing the emission of secondary gamma rays, which are\nmeasured to quantify gold concentrations. Multielement analyses are carried\nout at the MSALABS facilities in Surrey, BC, where 250 g of pulverized splits\nare analyzed via ICF6xx and IMS-230 methods. The IMS-230 method uses 4-acid\ndigestion (a combination of hydrochloric, nitric, perchloric and hydrofluoric\nacids) followed by inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry to\nquantify concentrations of 48 elements. Samples with over-limit results for\nAg, Cu, Pb and Zn undergo ore-grade analysis via the ICF-6xx method (where\n'xx' denotes the target metal). This method employs 4-acid digestion followed\nby inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry.\n\nGold Equivalent (AuEq) metal values are calculated using: Au 4195.60 USD/oz,\nAg 60.95 USD/oz, Cu 6.71 USD/lb, Pb 1661.40 USD/ton and Zn 3426.60 USD/ton on\nOctober 10, 2026. Recoveries are assumed to be as follows: Au 81%, Ag 74%, Cu\n83%, Pb 45% and Zn 0.75% based on other mining and exploration projects in the\nsame Golden Triangle Mining Camp with similar style of high-grade gold\nmineralization where Gold Runner Exploration's Golden Girl project is located\nsuch as the Snip Mine, Eskay Creek, as well as the Brucejack Mine.\n\nQualified Person\n\nThis News Release has been approved by Alan Morris, M.Sc., CPG #10550.
