Canadian Gold Resources Uncovers High-Grade Gold-Silver Mineralization in Surface Sampling at Lac Arsenault Four Best Samples Return Grades up to 28.9 g/t Gold and 452 g/t Silver

July 9, 2025

Dieppe, N.B. – July 9, 2025 – Canadian Gold Resources Ltd. (TSXV: CAN) (“Canadian Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to report exciting new surface sampling results from its 100%-owned Lac Arsenault Property, located in Québec’s underexplored Gaspé Peninsula. This latest fieldwork, conducted in early June 2025, focused on exposing and sampling the Baker and Mersereau veins—two primary structures central to the Company’s upcoming bulk sample program.


High-grade assay results continue to validate Lac Arsenault’s strong potential to host a precious metals system, while also identifying new zones of mineralization in previously overlooked areas.

 

Sampling Highlights:

  • Sample BVA2025-004: 28.9 g/t gold, 306 g/t silver
  • Sample BVA2025-006: 22.9 g/t gold, 399 g/t silver, 17.8% lead
  • Sample Mersereau (unnumbered): 25.5 g/t gold, 447 g/t silver, 18.4% lead
  • Sample BVA2025-008: 5.32 g/t gold, 452 g/t silver, 25.7% lead


These grades are significant for surface sampling and support the near-surface potential for bulk-tonnage extraction.

Exploration Program Summary

The June 2025 program included mechanical trenching and sampling along the Baker and Mersereau veins. In addition to confirming historical data, new assays revealed broader zones of high-grade gold, silver, and lead mineralization than previously recognized.


Importantly, three samples from Type-4 veins—historically considered “poor in metals”—returned mineralization of economic interest. For example, Sample BV2025-002 returned:

  • 1.29 g/t gold
  • 39.0 g/t silver
  • 1.04% zinc


“We consider these sample results to be significant.” said Mark Smethurst, P.Geo., VP Exploration for Canadian Gold Resources. Not only have we confirmed high-grade gold and silver in our primary structures, but we’re now seeing mineralization in areas that had be previously written off by prior operators. This discovery opens new potential across the property and puts us in a strong position as we advance toward bulk sampling.”

 

Next Steps

Permitting for the bulk sample program is underway. Additional surface work and modeling will continue in parallel to expand the understanding of mineralization throughout the vein system.

All technical information in this release has been reviewed and approved by Mark Smethurst, P.Geo., a Director of Canadian Gold Resources who is a Qualified Person as defined under National Instrument 43-101.


The above-mentioned surface grab samples were collected from mineralized quartz veins exposed on surface. Investors are cautioned that grab samples are inherently selective and serve to prove the presence of mineralization only. Grab sample were put into sample bags, marked and sealed on-site at the sample location. The samples were then transported in secured bags directly from the sample location sites to Actlabs, Hamilton. All are ISO/IEC 17025 accredited labs. Analysis for precious metals were completed by Fire Assay. Certified standards and blanks are inserted at a rate of two standards and a blank per 10 samples, duplicates are also completed.

Dieppe, N.B. – February 10, 2026 – Canadian Gold Resources Ltd. (TSXV: CAN) ("Canadian Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an operational update on its maiden 2025 diamond drill program at the Company's 100%-owned Lac Arsenault Project in Québec's Gaspé Peninsula. The Company is also pleased to announce that it has initiated its 2026 Lac Arsenault diamond drilling program. 2025 Maiden Lac Arsenault Diamond Drilling Program The Company's maiden diamond drilling program was completed on December 23, 2025. Drill core samples have been submitted to an accredited laboratory for assay, with results expected in the second half of February. The 58-hole program was designed to validate historical drill data, assess the continuity of mineralization, and provide a basis for a maiden NI 43-101-compliant mineral resource estimate. Detailed core logging indicates that mineralization intersected in the first phase of drilling is consistent with surface observations and is characterized by major vein structures accompanied by stockwork-style arrays of subsidiary veins developed within a shear zone. Similar subsidiary veins have historically returned gold-bearing assays. However, historical drilling results are not necessarily indicative of the presence or continuity of mineralization that may be encountered in the Company's current drilling program, and there can be no assurance that comparable results will be achieved. 2026 Lac Arsenault Diamond Drilling Program In early January, the Company initiated its 2026 Lac Arsenault diamond drilling program, which is anticipated to encompass approximately 40 drill holes. Current drilling is focused on targets generated from an Induced Polarization ("IP") survey completed in September, which delineated the zone hosting major vein systems and associated stockwork-style veining. The IP survey was completed across the Baker-Mersereau structural corridor, where preliminary interpretation has identified multiple high-priority anomalies that closely resemble the geophysical response associated with the known high-grade Baker vein. The data also outlines the position and continuity of the Mersereau vein and highlights possible near-surface stockwork zones up to 100 metres wide within what the Company refers to as the Stockwork Target Corridor. Management Commentary Ron Goguen, President and CEO of Canadian Gold Resources, commented: "Completion of our maiden drill program represents an important milestone for Canadian Gold and provides the foundation for advancing Lac Arsenault toward a maiden NI 43-101-compliant mineral resource. With assays pending and a second drill program now underway targeting high-priority IP anomalies along the Baker-Mersereau structural corridor, we believe the Company is well positioned to continue evaluating the scale and continuity of mineralization across this emerging gold system."
