North Peak to Investigate Economic Potential of Historic Dumps at Prospect Mountain Mine Complex
Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - August 18, 2025) - North Peak Resources Ltd. (TSXV: NPR) (OTCQB: NPRLF) (the " Company" or " North Peak") announces that it has begun investigations into the economic potential of the historic dumps within the Plan of Operations (PoO) of the Prospect Mountain Mine complex (the " Property"). The main dump, which sits in front of the main Diamond tunnel portal entrance is estimated to contain between 210,000-230,000 mt of material. Historical investigations from 2008 & 2010 included volume assessments, agitated leach and bulk density test work, have indicated that the material is fully oxidized and readily leachable with gold recoveries between 75-85%. Composite metallurgical samples from the various reports had feed grades averaging from a low of 0.76 g/t Au, 27.5 /t Ag to a high of 3.19 g/t, 34.46 g/t Ag (see the Company's Technical Report (described below) at pp. 42-44). The potential quantity and grade of the dump is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. North Peak will be initiating an aircore drill program on the dump to better characterize the grade distribution across the dump, which is expected to start in mid-September. A composite bulk sample will be sent to McLelland laboratories for metallurgical test work including column leach testing to allow a fuller investigation of the potential of the dumps for toll leach treatment offsite, which will take several months. "The Diamond Tunnel dump represents a potentially valuable asset to the Company, particularly given the current gold prices. If the test work is successful, and other key elements are in place, it could give the Company a revenue stream to offset future exploration expenses whilst the Company follows up on the excellent drill results from the 2024 drilling campaign and continues to explore and expand the potential of Prospect Mountain", commented Rupert Williams, CEO.

About North Peak The Company is a Canadian based gold exploration and development company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "NPR" and the OTCQB under the symbol "NPRLF". Launched by the founding team behind both Kirkland Lake Gold and Rupert Resources, the team has a strong track record of acquiring mining assets, applying modern exploration techniques and taking them into operational mines. North Peak's flagship property is the Prospect Mountain Mine complex which lies in the Battle Mountain Eureka trend, in an area known as the Southern Eureka Gold Belt, where three styles of mineralization have been identified, gold, silver Carlin style mineralization, Carbonate Replacement gold, silver, lead, zinc mineralization (CRD) and carbonate hosted Porphyry Related Skarn lead, zinc and gold mineralization associated with cretaceous intrusions. At the Property, the CRD mineralization is heavily oxidized to depths of at least 610m (2,000ft) below the top of the ridge line. A Plan of Operations is in place which covers part of the Property and entitles an operator to pursue surface exploration (totaling 189 acres), underground mining of up to 365,000 tons per annum and certain infrastructural works.

Winnipeg woman says dog started fire by turning on stove under recall notice — twice
Social Sharing A Winnipeg woman says she never imagined her dog could start a fire on her stove, but now she's warning the public that's just what happened — and she says she didn't find out a safety recall had been issued for her appliance until after the fire. Michelle Burkowski had new Samsung appliances, including a range, installed in May 2024, and says she was initially very pleased with them. But one day in May 2025, she came home to find her house filled with smoke and a fire burning on the range. "I ran into the kitchen to check on the dog, and that's when I noticed that there was a book on fire on top of the stove. And of course, I shouldn't have left the book on the stove," she said in an interview. She put the fire out and made sure her dog, Buster, was all right. That's when she realized Buster must have jumped up and turned on one of the knobs for a stove element, which were on the front of the appliance. When she told some friends what happened, they told her Samsung made covers for the knobs to prevent them from being unintentionally turned on. "I started to do a bit of research on it. That's when I went online and I saw that Samsung actually had a recall for this exact problem," Burkowski said. Health Canada issued a safety recall alert in August 2024 for certain Samsung electric ranges due to a fire hazard, noting both people and pets could "accidentally activate the front-mounted knobs on the ranges." The notice says owners should contact Samsung Canada to get a free set of knob locks or covers. It also says people with Wi-Fi enabled ranges can turn on notifications on a Samsung app to get alerts when a cooktop burner is turned on. Burkowski says after the stove fire, she removed the knobs from her Samsung range to keep the dog from accidentally turning the elements on. 2nd fire after oven turned on But that wasn't the only fire she had with the appliance. About a month later, while she was at work, there was a second fire, after she believes the dog somehow activated the oven switch. She said she had left some dry goods — chips or crackers — in the oven that caught fire. "I's easy for people to judge and say I shouldn't have done that … and I get it, I understand I shouldn't have done that, in hindsight," she said, but she puts some items in the oven to keep them away from her dog and cat. "I was completely shocked. I'd never thought in a million years that a dog would be able to turn the oven on," said Burkowski. "I love Buster, he is a great dog, but like, he's not the smartest dog.… So, in my head, he shouldn't be able to turn an oven on in that way, just by jumping on it. And if he can do that, then certainly a kid can." In a June 2024 case highlighted by the fire department in Colorado Springs, Colo., a dog put its feet on the front of a cooking range and ignited a fire. A home security video posted by the fire department shows boxes on the stove catching on fire. Dog ignites fire on electric stove 17 minutes ago The Colorado Springs Fire Department posted a video in 2024 of a fire that started when a dog put its paws on a stovetop and turned an element on, causing boxes on the stove to catch fire. A spokesperson for the midwestern U.S. fire department says the fire was extinguished, and the homeowner was treated for minor burns and smoke inhalation. Ashley Franco, a spokesperson for the Colorado Springs Fire Department, said the homeowner provided the video to help warn others about the issue. "Kitchen fires are one of the top causes of fires in Colorado Springs, and a lot of them are due to people leaving their stove on with food or even flammable objects on it," she said in an email to CBC. People who have pets or children should think about what appliances would be safest for their situation, she said, suggesting that stove models with knobs at the back would be a better option. 250 fires, 40 injuries reported in U.S. The Health Canada Samsung recall in August 2024 came two weeks after the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a recall notice, which involved about 1.1. million Samsung units sold since 2013. Samsung had received over 300 reports of "unintentional activation of the front-mounted knobs by humans or pets," resulting in 250 fires — at least 18 of which "caused extensive property damage" — and 40 injuries, according to the U.S. commission's notice. Health Canada says that as of the end of July 2025, it had received 110 reports of unintentional activation of range elements involving the recalled Samsung ranges, thought to be due to the control knobs being activated too easily. Among the 110 reports, Health Canada says 62 mentioned a fire and four involved an injury. At the time of the recall, Health Canada noted Samsung reported that about 326,250 of the ranges had been sold in Canada between 2013 and August 2024. WATCH | Owner says dog started 2 kitchen fires by turning range on: How Buster the dog started 2 kitchen fires 17 minutes ago A Winnipeg woman says she never imagined her dog could start a fire on her stove, but now she's warning the public that's just what happened — and she says she didn't find out a safety recall had been issued for her appliance until it was too late. A spokesperson for Samsung declined to comment, but in a release at the time of the 2024 recall, Samsung Electronics Canada acknowledged "a fire hazard if flammable objects are left on top of the range." The release said Samsung Canada would provide customers with a set of free knob locks, or covers, to prevent the range from accidentally being turned on. Burkowski says she requested a set of knob covers after she learned about the recall. A package was shipped and delivered, but when she got home, it was gone, she said, leading her to believe it was stolen. Samsung told her she could not order another set of the knob covers, she said. She also said she doesn't know why she didn't get a notification about the safety recall when it was issued in 2024. She didn't register her purchase of the range oven with Samsung, she said. But Consumers Council of Canada executive director Ken Whitehurst says some people worry about privacy, and what will happen to their personal information and data when they register with a manufacturer. He thinks there could be far more proactive systems of registration for products that are under warranty. "At least with major appliances, the sellers, the retailers, actually have all the [buyer's] information. They have it for delivery purposes and all kinds of things," he said. "Maybe it should be a legal requirement that they simply register the sale so that the consumer will be informed if there's a product safety problem. Why is it the consumer's responsibility at all?" In addition to the Samsung ranges, Health Canada also issued a recall notice earlier this year for certain models of LG electric ranges, warning the front-mounted knobs on those models could also be activated by accidental contact from humans or pets. LG Electronics Canada said in a notice on its website that in co-operation with Health Canada, it was making a voluntary recall of certain ranges with front-mounted knobs.
