Independence Gold Intersects Copper, Silver and Base Metals at Ootsa Target, 3Ts Project, BC
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 22, 2025) - Independence Gold Corp. (TSXV: IGO) ("Independence" or "the Company") is pleased to report the results of its first-ever diamond drill program at the Ootsa copper-silver target within the Company's 100%-owned 3Ts Project, located in central British Columbia. A total of five holes were completed, reaching a maximum depth of 427 metres ("m"), and spanning approximately 800 m of strike length. The 3Ts Project is located approximately 185 kilometres ("km") southwest of Prince George, British Columbia and is comprised of thirty-one mineral claims covering approximately 35,486 ha in the Nechako Plateau region of central British Columbia. The project is situated 16 km southwest of Artemis Gold Inc.'s Blackwater Mine and covers a low-sulphidation epithermal quartz- carbonate vein district within which nineteen individual mineralized veins, ranging from 50 m to more than 1,100 m in strike length and with true widths up to 32 m have been identified. All five holes at Ootsa intersected hydrothermal breccias and altered Jurassic rhyolites, with widespread disseminated and vein-hosted copper and silver mineralization-a style unique to the Ootsa Ridge area. The mineralization appears structurally controlled, occurring within arcuate-shaped fault systems, and includes bornite and chalcopyrite, with associated lead and zinc in select intervals. Highlights from the program include: Hole 3TS-25-15: 5.49 metres averaging 55.74 g/t silver, 0.95% copper, 0.26% lead and 0.56% zinc Hole 3TS-25-14: 17.20 metres averaging 3.20 g/t silver, 0.20% lead and 0.22% zinc Figure 1: Bornite and chalcopyrite hosted in crackle-brecciated rhyolite at a depth of 326.2m (3TS-25-15) To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: "These results represent a new style of mineralization for the 3Ts project," commented Randy Turner, President and CEO of Independence Gold. "The Ootsa target has returned strong copper and silver grades over meaningful widths, with associated pathfinder elements including lead, and zinc. We firmly believe Ootsa represents a significant critical minerals opportunity that remains open along strike for several kilometres. The mineralogy and structural setting suggest a robust hydrothermal system, and we are excited to continue advancing this target during the summer exploration program." Advanced mineralogical studies are currently underway with BaseMet Labs (Kamloops, BC) to characterize the host phases of copper, silver, lead and zinc mineralization, and to refine the exploration model for future drill targeting. Drilling to date has been limited to the Ootsa Ridge, a localized expression within a much larger structural corridor; the mineralized system remains open in all directions.

Independence Gold Resumes Drilling at 3Ts Project
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 14, 2025) - Independence Gold Corp. (TSXV: IGO) ("Independence" or "the Company") is pleased to announce that drilling has resumed at its 3Ts Project. The 3Ts Project is located approximately 185 kilometres ("km") southwest of Prince George, British Columbia and is comprised of thirty-one mineral claims covering approximately 35,486 hectares ("ha") in the Nechako Plateau region of central British Columbia. The project is situated 16 km southwest of Artemis Gold Inc.'s Blackwater Mine and covers a low-sulphidation epithermal quartz-carbonate vein district within which nineteen individual mineralized veins, ranging from 50 m to more than 1,100 m in strike length and with true widths up to 32 m have been identified. This drill program commenced in November 2024, with 10,000 m originally planned. The drill program was expanded in the second quarter of 2025 to 13,000 m due to successful drill results and drill costs being lower than anticipated. Due to spring break up conditions, drilling was halted for approximately three weeks. During this period, all mineralized drill core was shipped to the lab for analysis with results pending. Under the expanded drill program, a total of 14 additional drill holes totaling 3,000 m are planned, focusing on the Johnny, Ian, and Larry vein systems. These veins have demonstrated significant mineralization potential and are being evaluated for inclusion in the Company's upcoming updated mineral resource estimate, currently being developed by SGS Geological Services. For further details please, see news release dated August 18th, 2022; "Technical Report on the Mineral Resource Estimate Update for the 3Ts Gold Project, Omineca Mining Division, British Columbia, Canada", authored by Armitage and Miller. "We are excited to have the drill turning again and to continue advancing the 3Ts Project," commented Randy Turner, President & CEO of Independence Gold. "This final phase of drilling will be critical to defining the potential of several new vein systems and strengthening the overall resource base at 3Ts." Drilling is anticipated to conclude by mid-June 2025, with assay results expected approximately four weeks following. Due to the additional drilling to allow for the inclusion of new veins in the resource model, the Company now anticipates the release of the updated NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate in the third quarter of 2025. In addition to the updated resource estimate, new metallurgical testing is being conducted on the Johnny, Larry and Ian veins to quantify the recovery potential of gold and silver from the veins. Mineralogical studies, including thin sections and advanced QEMSCAN are also underway to enhance the deposit model and resource model.

Independence Gold Expands 3Ts Project with Strategic Mineral Claims Acquisition
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 31, 2025) - Independence Gold Corp. (TSXV: IGO) ("Independence Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the acquisition of seventeen additional mineral claims covering an area of 28,100 hectares ("ha"), significantly expanding its 3Ts Project ("3Ts") in central British Columbia. The 3Ts Project is located approximately 185 kilometres ("km") southwest of Prince George, British Columbia and is now comprised of thirty-one mineral claims covering approximately 35,486 ha in the Nechako Plateau region of central British Columbia. The project is situated 16 km southwest of Artemis Gold Inc.'s Blackwater Mine and covers a low-sulphidation epithermal quartz- carbonate vein district within which nineteen individual mineralized veins, ranging from 50 m to more than 1,100 m in strike length and with true widths up to 32 m have been identified. Figure 1: 3Ts Property Outline and Targets To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: The newly acquired claims encompass ground underlain by Middle Jurassic Hazelton Group rocks, which is the same geological setting that hosts the known mineralized veins at 3Ts. A comprehensive review of historical geochemical data has identified anomalous gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc concentrations in sediment samples. Many of these geochemical anomalies correspond with structural features identified in historical geophysical surveys, displaying characteristics similar to the mineralized host structures within the existing 3Ts Project. The prevailing geological model for the 3Ts region suggests that upwelling magma created dome-like surface features. As these magma bodies deflated, arcuate fault structures formed around their peripheries, providing key fluid pathways for mineral deposition. These structural controls are believed to be fundamental in the formation of the high-grade gold-silver veins at 3Ts and will serve as a primary exploration focus for the newly acquired ground. Independence Gold is planning an exploration program for the summer that will include airborne geophysics, detailed mapping and prospecting to identify high-priority target zones.
