- ESKAY-Corey Property comprises several Au-Ag volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS), and porphyry Cu-Au/epithermal Au targets located in the “Golden Triangle”, one of the most important mineral districts in northwest British Columbia, Canada
- Eskay Mining is one of the largest landowners in the Golden Triangle with 52,600ha (130,000 acres) and is surrounded by some of the largest mining companies in the world.
- Priority targets for exploration in 2026 are Vermillion, TM, Big Red and Sultan, all of which are located in the southern sector of the property. Seventeen (17) additional targets are present on the property.
- The 2026 program represents a significant shift in focus from predominantly VMS targets in the north to porphyry and epithermal targets in the south.
- In 2025, the Company undertook an extensive database compilation of all historic data accumulated over the past 25 years of VMS exploration, which included diamond drilling, geophysics, soil geochemistry, Worldview 3 hyperspectral imagery and geological mapping to refine existing target areas and to define new target areas, especially in the south.

Actual holdings will vary for each client or fund and there is no guarantee that a particular account will hold any or all of the securities discussed. All investing involves risk including risk of loss. Crescat target resource estimates (TSE) are based on internal modeling and geologic estimates, and include various assumptions based on analysis of geology, geophysics, geochemistry, historic drill assays, and metallurgical recovery data received to date. TSE are discounted based on drilling progress to date, an assessment of the management and technical team's strengths and weaknesses affecting their ability to advance the project, and environmental, local community, and government permitting risk factors. Estimates are displayed on a gold equivalent basis based on current price-to-gold ratios for silver, copper, and other metals if the primary metal is other than gold. Further drilling, assaying, resource modeling, and engineering studies will be required to determine whether Crescat's TSE can be reasonably expected to be achieved. Crescat's target resource estimates are updated monthly across the entire portfolio. Sources: Crescat Capital LLC, Bloomberg, Issuer. Expected profitability percentile is based on Crescat's geologic estimates of projected grades, recoveries, capex, and operational costs on the primary project compared to the universe of operating mines. This value does not project overall anticipated company profitability.
