## Resource

Will Robinson, VP of Exploration at West Red Lake Gold Mines (TSX.V:WRLG – OTCQB:WRLGF), joins me to review the key metrics returned from the updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) at the Rowan Deposit and the first numbers from the Mt Jamie deposit. Both Rowan and Mt Jamie are satellite deposits nearby the flagship Madsen Gold Project, in the Red Lake district of Ontario, Canada. We also discuss some of the exploration news on tap in 2026 around the Madsen Mine. HIGHLIGHTS: Rowan Indicated gold ounces (“oz”) increased by 70% to 334,825 oz grading 13.03 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”), compared to 478,707 tonnes containing 196,747 oz grading 12.78 g/t Au in the 2025 MRE. Rowan Inferred gold oz increased by 52% to 179,013 oz grading 15.31 g/t Au, compared to 421,181 tonnes containing 118,155 oz grading 8.73 g/t Au in the 2025 MRE. Gold resource grade increased by 2% in the Indicated category and 75% in the Inferred category. Significant resource growth achieved with minimal exploration expenditures of C$3.5 million and relatively low drilling meters of 6,300m, representing a modest discovery cost of approximately C$17.60/oz gold. New drilling successfully expanded and upgraded several high-grade vein structures, including Veins 003, 006 and 013. Rowan continues to rank among the highest-grade undeveloped gold deposits in Canada based on an Indicated resource grade of 13.03 g/t Au. An initial resource estimate for the Mt. Jamie deposit was also prepared which includes an Indicated resource of 49,407 oz grading 14.13 g/t Au, with an additional Inferred resource of 35,791 oz grading 11.97 g/t Au. The Mt. Jamie deposit is located approximately 2km west of Rowan and shows strong potential for becoming an additional high-grade satellite in WRLG’s Red Lake portfolio which pre…
