| Management
Red Pine Exploration is a gold exploration company headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The Company’s flagship gold property is the 100% owned Wawa Gold Project in the Michipicoten Greenstone Belt of Ontario, a region that has seen major investment by several producers in the past five years. The property is over 7,000 hectares in size and is host to numerous historic gold mines with a combined historic production of 120,000 oz gold. Red Pine is building a strong position as a major mineral exploration and development player in the Michipicoten region. Wawa Gold Project, Ontario Brownfield Project with Excellent Infrastructure
Resource Update 150% Increase to 1.7M oz Gold Open Pit & Underground (Sept. 2024)
Short Term Path to Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) → Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) → Production
Excellent Growth Potential
The property currently hosts a National Instrument 43-101 compliant resource (September 30, 2024) from two mineral deposits, namely the Jubilee Shear and the Minto Mine. The mineral resource includes an Indicated Mineral Resource of 14.7 million (“M”) tonnes grading 1.8 grams per tonne gold (“g/t Au”) containing 842,000 ounces of gold and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 16.2 M tonnes grading 1.6 g/t Au containing 843,000 ounces of gold, inclusive of both open pit and underground. The Company has identified numerous exploration targets adjacent to the existing resource base and elsewhere on the Wawa Gold Project property. The Jubilee deposit is highlighted by continuous gold mineralization starting from surface and extending up to 1,200 metres down dip thus providing optionality for potential future open pit and underground development scenarios. Cooper Area The Cooper area hosts a network of at least seven extensional shear zones hosting gold-mineralized quartz veins that are oriented northwest to north-northwest and east-northeast. High-grade gold mineralization is present in the quartz veins hosted in each of the extensional shears. From west to east, the seven extensional shear zones identified in the Cooper area include: the Jasper, Bi-rich, Y106, Root, Cooper 11, Cooper and Ganley veins. This network of extensional shears is emerging as a significant exploration target in the northern extension of the Wawa gold project. The northwest-oriented extensional shears are similar to the Minto mine shear hosting the Minto deposit. The new drilling intersections in the Y106 shear outline the potential of discovering new high-grade satellite deposits around the Jubilee deposit with additional exploration.

The PEA was prepared by DRA Americas Inc. (“DRA”), in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”). All amounts are in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise stated. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260218160367/en/ Michael Michaud, President and CEO of RPX Gold commented: “The PEA marks a significant milestone for RPX Gold, outlining an expedited, phased development plan, transitioning from open pit to underground mining, with a low-capital path to the first stage of gold production. This mining scenario leverages existing infrastructure and nearby milling capacity that potentially eliminates the need for a mill or tailings facility, streamlining both permitting and construction.The PEA validates the Wawa Gold Project as a highly attractive development opportunity with substantial exploration upside. In the event a production decision is made, the low risk, staged development approach provides an opportunity to generate cash flow from the initial open pits to be used to further explore and develop the larger mineral resource.” On February 10, 2026, Pursuant to a resolution passed by shareholders on Jan. 21, 2026, the company has changed its name as follows.

On January 20, 2026, Red Pine Exploration Inc. provided an update on its strong exploration and corporate progress during 2025 and outline key milestones planned for 2026 as the Company advances the Wawa Gold Project. Michael Michaud, President and CEO of Red Pine commented: “2025 marked a pivotal year for Red Pine as we successfully delivered on all planned milestones and took steps to advance the Wawa Gold Project from exploration to development. With an updated mineral resource completed, a Preliminary Economic Assessment expected in early 2026, and a clear path toward a staged open-pit development strategy, we enter the coming year well positioned to continue de-risking the project and advancing toward a production decision. Production would provide funds to continue to explore and develop other targets and capitalize on our longer-term growth opportunities.” On December 16, 2025, Red Pine Exploration Inc. announced the gold (“Au”) assay results from eighteen (18) drill holes for 2,233 metres (“m”) from the ongoing drill program at its Wawa Gold Project, Ontario. The drill program is designed to define and extend near-surface gold mineralization in the areas with open pit potential that are being evaluated in the ongoing work being done to complete a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) (See Press Release dated October 29, 2025). Michael Michaud, President and CEO of Red Pine commented: “We are pleased with our recent drill results that continue to identify significant zones of near-surface gold mineralization within areas of the Jubilee Shear that were sparsely tested or untested in historical drilling programs in the near surface crown pillars of the former mines. These results highlight the potential to expand the mineral inventory and reduce future stripping requirements. Additionally, our infill and continuity-focused drilling aimed at evaluating open-pit potential has confirmed the presence of continuous gold mineralization and indicates that additional high-grade zones remain to be discovered as drill spacing tightens across priority targets. The Company is also pleased to announce the selection of DRA Global Limited to complete the PEA for the Wawa Gold Project. We remain on track to complete the PEA in the first half of 2026.” November 10, 2025, Red Pine Uncovers High-Grade Gold in Cooper Area, Highlighting Significant Exploration Potential; PEA Remains On Schedule for H1 2026 Highlights from drilling and surface exploration results in the Cooper area:
The new drilling intersections in the Y106 shear outline the potential of discovering new high-grade satellite deposits around the Jubilee deposit with additional exploration. October 29, 2025, Red Pine has commenced a 9,000-metre drilling program to better define gold mineralization at surface and collect samples for additional environmental, metallurgy and geotechnical analysis at the Wawa gold project as part of the continuing preliminary economic assessment (PEA) and potential future development. Drilling program in areas of open-pit potential Building on the drilling results from the 2025 program and from prior campaigns, the Company has now outlined priority areas for a potential open pit along the Jubilee shear that will be considered as part of the PEA. In the priority areas identified, the new drilling program plans to:
