- Holds an extensive property portfolio built on over 30 years of prospecting by the Berdahl family, the prospecting team behind Snowline Gold Corp.’s successful portfolio of primary gold assets.
- The Company currently holds 45,000 ha in 18 properties in the Berdahl Portfolio. The properties are located in four distinct districts, each with multi-commodity potential as follows:
- Porphyry Cu-Au, Western Yukon,
- Tungsten, Central Yukon,
- Ag-Pb-Zn, Eastern Yukon, and
- Gold, Southern Lakes District, Southern Yukon
- Flagship 100% owned AZ Cu-Au project is located 6km from the Alaska Highway SW Yukon & with the adjacent Fairway property collectively covers 13,000 ha.
- Soil & rock geochemical surveys in the SE part of the property consistently returned widespread anomalous values of both Cu and Au.
- Multiple high-grade Cu in surface rock samples including 3.49% Cu, 1.22% Cu and 1.73%Cu in a zone reported to be 1.2km long.
- A single line of IP has outlined a strong coincident high chargeability & low resistivity anomaly interpreted to bean indicator of a porphyry environment.
- Drill hole AZ25-004 completed in 2025 about 400m north of the IP anomalies, intersected 14.4m at 0.44% Cu,incl. 1.5m at 0.37 g/t Au. This hole cut increasing potassic alteration at depth, interpreted as a vector towards a porphyry centre.
- On May 12th, Yukon Metals announced that it has acquired a 100% interest in the KLM Property covering 11,761 ha in northern British Columbia near the Yukon border.
- The KLM Property is in a prospective region characterized by extensive intrusive rocks and favourable structural architecture considered conducive to porphyry-style mineralization, further extending the Company’s extensive land holdings in a prospective copper porphyry corridor extending from northern BC into Yukon.

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.
