FREEMAN GOLD PROVIDES CORPORATE UPDATE
VANCOUVER, BC , May 27, 2025 /CNW/ - Freeman Gold Corp. (TSXV: FMAN) (OTCQB: FMANF) (FSE: 3WU) (" Freeman" or the " Company") is pleased to provide a corporate update on fiscal 2025 activities for the Lemhi Gold Project (" Lemhi", or the " Project"). On October 16, 2023, Freeman released a robust Preliminary Economic Assessment (" PEA") of the Project as completed by Ausenco Engineering Canada ULC (" Ausenco"). On February 10, 2025, the Company awarded a lump sum Feasibility Study (" FS") of Lemhi to Ausenco. The FS is expected to be completed and announced in late Q1 2026. To support the FS, the Company embarked on several activities, including: a phase IV metallurgical program building on the previous three phases completed; expansion and infill drilling to increase and convert inferred ounces to measured and indicated for inclusion in the FS; a geotechnical work program; and an update of pricing assumptions to reflect current market conditions. The revised pricing assumptions were integrated into an updated price sensitivity analysis completed by Ausenco and Moose Mountain Technical Services. The Lemhi PEA outlined a high-grade, low-cost, open pit operation with an average annual production of 80,100 ounces of gold in the first eight years. The production strategy envisions phased development utilizing a carbon-in-leach (" CIL") processing facility. As mentioned above, Freeman updated the pricing assumptions of the PEA to increase the base case from US$1,750/oz Au to US$2,200/oz Au which resulted in a post-tax NPV 5% US$329 million, a post-tax IRR of 28.2% and payback of 2.9 years. Lemhi also has further strong leverage to higher prices and at US$3,400/oz Au, the Project has a post-tax NPV 5% of US$876 million, a post-tax IRR of 57.4% and payback of 1.6 years. As the Company moves forward towards a construction decision, Freeman has advanced permitting initiatives including collecting three years of baseline water quality data required for a state mining permit. To support Lemhi's advanced development, Freeman appointed David Keough to its Board. Mr. Keough has over 35 years of experience in the mining industry and as Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer of Goldrock Inc., he successfully permitted the Lindero gold project, subsequently acquired by Fortuna Silver Mines Inc., for construction. In the coming weeks and months, the Company looks forward to providing updates on the geotechnical, metallurgical, and resource expansion and upgrade drill programs that will be part of the FS. The Company anticipates increasing both the size of and confidence in resources at Lemhi through the current drill program. Furthermore, metallurgical test work will build on three earlier phases of work that indicated > 95% of contained gold is recoverable using a traditional CIL process and that the significant coarse gold found at Lemhi is amenable to gravity separation. These new work streams will be key components in what Freeman expects to be a robust and economically compelling FS. The Lemhi project will also benefit from President Trump's Executive Order to fast-track and revitalize American mineral production. Lemhi is uniquely positioned to provide broad economic benefits to the State of Idaho and create hundreds of local jobs. About the Company and Project Freeman Gold Corp. is a mineral exploration company focused on the development of its 100% owned Lemhi Gold property. The Project comprises 30 square kilometres of highly prospective land, hosting a near-surface oxide gold resource. The pit constrained National Instrument 43-101 (" NI 43- 101") compliant mineral resource estimate is comprised of 988,100 ounces gold (" oz Au") at 1.0 gram per tonne (" g/t") in 30.02 million tonnes (4.7 million tonnes Measured (168,800 oz) & 25.5 million tonnes Indicated (819,300 oz)) and 256,000 oz Au at 1.04 g/t Au in 7.63 million tonnes (Inferred). The Company is focused on growing and advancing the Project towards a production decision. To date, 525 drill holes and 92,696 m of drilling has historically been completed (Murray K., Elfen, S.C., Mehrfert, P., Millard, J., Cooper, Schulte, M., Dufresne, M., NI 43-101 Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment, dated November 20, 2023; The recently updated price sensitivity analysis (see Freeman's news release dated April 9, 2025) shows a PEA with an after-tax net present value (5%) of US$329 million and an internal rate of return of 28.2% using a base case gold price of US$2,200/oz; Average annual gold production of 75,900 oz Au for a total life-of-mine of 11.2 years payable output of 851,900 oz Au; life-of-mine cash costs of US$925/oz Au; and, all-in sustaining costs of US$1,105/oz Au using an initial capital expenditure of US$215 million*. *Note: Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. The preliminary economic assessment is preliminary in nature, that it includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized.

Just Let Your Kids Play With Makeup
At least once a month, someone asks Kathryn Keough, a clinical psychologist at the mental-health nonprofit Child Mind Institute, if their child is in trouble. An expert on juvenile trauma and distress, Keough helps families navigate the fallout from scarring events or severe illnesses. But the inquiring parents aren't asking Keough whether their kid will recover after a tragedy. They're worried because their young daughters want to play with lipstick. Call it the fear of 'girly-girl' culture—the princess movies, sparkly dresses, and, of course, makeup that Keough says become part of many little kids' orbits when they turn 3. These interests, the thinking goes, feed into a culture that grinds the spirits of bright young women into pixie dust by insisting that their outward appearance is ultimately more important than their actions. The concern is a frequent topic in Facebook parenting groups and modern advice columns, which feature questions such as what to do when a 3-year-old is obsessed with pink despite a hard-and-fast 'No sparkle princesses!' rule. Recently, parents' anxiety has been stoked by YouTube and TikTok influencers who turn makeup routines into entertainment—popular videos that have led to an influx of fifth graders in Sephora aisles. Late last year, to cultivate a younger clientele, the beauty retailer Ulta even debuted tiny toy versions of popular makeup products, essentially collectibles shaped like eyeshadow palettes or lipstick. The response was robust sales—and panicked articles declaring that the toys were 'hooking young kids on makeup' before their brains could reject such glitter-coated temptations. 'The anxiety,' Keough told me, 'is very real.' But a child's curiosity about makeup isn't necessarily a red flag, or even a fluttery pink one. When a 3-year-old asks for a lipstick tube of her own, she's doing something that is, in Keough's words, developmentally 'so normal'—and that can even be helpful. Today, many experts think that toys symbolizing makeup, or a spare amount of nontoxic cosmetics, can have cognitive and developmental benefits for preschool and elementary-age children, as long as they're used as part of child-initiated play. A knee-jerk rejection of girlhood signifiers—being against princesses, say—ends up putting a double standard on playtime that can cast girls themselves as weak or unwanted. Compare the kerfuffle over Ulta's lipstick figurines with Ferrari's similar partnership with Hot Wheels, which produced no discernible outrage at all. The typical clutter of boyhood rarely faces the same scrutiny as 'girly' toys. [Read: How to have a realistic conversation about beauty with your kids] Little girls clamoring for lipstick is a healthy part of role-playing, Tara Well, a psychologist and Barnard College professor who specializes in personality development, told me. Children begin experimenting with their appearance early as part of their identity formation, the process of realizing that they are distinct beings with their own body and desires. A version of this type of play begins around six months, when babies become fascinated with their own reflection. (If you've ever held up a baby to a mirror and cooed 'Who's that? Is that you?' then you've helped guide this practice.) By 18 months, toddlers will typically recognize themselves in the mirror, and they'll also use visual aids—dress-up clothes, masks, perhaps makeup—to role-play as caregivers or story characters, a kind of exploration that tends to continue for many years. This is why my goddaughter, when she was a toddler, would pretend to spray her grandmother's perfume on herself before coming to dinner, and why the 5-year-old daughter of a friend swiped a Sweet'N Low packet from the table when we were all at brunch, then rolled it up to look like a 'pink lipstick' that she dabbed onto her face until her buttered toast arrived. The act of creating pretend makeup or putting on the occasional swipe of real lip balm can also reinforce fine-motor and planning skills, Keough told me. Putting on (actual or pretend) makeup requires grip—and it teaches a child to identify and follow a simple sequence of events: uncapping the product, pinpointing the specific part of the face where it belongs, using it carefully, putting it away. When children 'turn' regular objects into makeup, such as the sweetener packet at the diner, they're also developing problem-solving skills. Drawing pictures and building with blocks have similar benefits, Keough said, 'but to say playing with makeup, or pretend makeup, is useless isn't accurate.' Trying to ban such 'glamour play'—as Well described the practice of playing with items that deal with appearance—can also backfire. Such rejections can tamp down a child's natural curiosity and desire for agency, which might cause some developmental issues, such as loss of confidence in one's natural desire to explore the social environment, Well told me. That's especially true in today's highly supervised childhoods, where many young kids' sights, smells, and tastes are entirely prescribed by adults. Imagining a makeup-wearing future gives children the ability to feel a tiny bit of control and wish fulfillment, just as imagining having a beard or a mustache could. 'A lot of kids will pretend to shave like Daddy,' Keough told me. 'People don't seem so concerned about that.' Many people have argued that there's a thin line between an interest in beauty and an embrace of unhealthy societal norms, such as the idea that a woman's worth is primarily determined by her appearance or ability to sexually attract a man. But the desire to wear makeup isn't always about appealing to the male gaze. Women wear lipstick in corporate boardrooms, congressional meetings, and places of worship—and not because they want a date. Many female leaders have made a signature cosmetic look, such as bold lipstick, a part of their visual calling card. Witness the fire-red lips of Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who has said she often wears lipstick to get a confidence boost and as a tie to her Latina culture. Rabbi Rebecca Keren Jablonski, an author and religious leader in New York City, has said that she adopts a glam look partly so young people in her community can see that she's just like other adults they know, and not a distant, unapproachable figure. When young women have agency to choose their own clothing and makeup, they can be more confident, less anxious, and even kinder, Shakaila Forbes-Bell, a London-based psychologist who specializes in aesthetics and mental health and is the author of Big Dress Energy, told me. Women's sense of agency over their appearance can also, in certain arenas, influence cognitive performance. The authors of a 2012 paper on 'enclothed cognition' suggested that clothes 'can have profound and systematic psychological and behavioral consequences for their wearers.' And a 2017 study found that female students scored higher on academic assessments when they applied their preferred style of makeup before taking a simulated exam. [Read: 'Intensive' parenting is now the norm in America] The desire to have control over our appearance—and to appear on the outside as we feel on the inside—begins in childhood, Forbes-Bell told me. 'Letting kids look how they want,' she said, 'especially when they're playing, is so, so important.' Does that mean all beauty products are great for all kids? Absolutely not, which is why some of the parental concern over kids' desire to use makeup is well placed: Some dermatologists have said that many brands popular on TikTok have stronger chemical compounds (such as retinol) that, though helpful for older adults, could irritate young skin. (Obviously, if you're too young to get drunk, you don't need a Drunk Elephant brand anti-aging serum.) More alarming is a 2023 study from Columbia University, which noted that children who've been exposed to personal-care products—not just makeup but also some hair gels—might absorb toxic chemicals from the formulas into their skin, eyes, and mouth. The scientists behind the study called for greater government restrictions, especially on products marketed to children. Physical safety is one thing. A moral panic about playing pretend is another. Although it's true that no child, whatever their gender, should be told their worth is primarily communicated through their looks—and parents understandably want to reinforce that message—banning 'girly' play can come with its own harms. At an innate level, children know that their appearance can help communicate who they are, and who they might want to be in the world. Pretending to apply makeup with toys, or occasionally smearing some real makeup on with adult supervision, can be a healthy way for kids to explore that idea—and a fun, even thrilling way to assert their sense of self. Letting children take the lead is the point, even if it leads to lipstick instead of Legos. When you buy a book using a link on this page, we receive a commission.

Cause of death to remain unknown for minke whale carcass that washed ashore in East Providence, R.I.
A very putrid smelling whale carcass washed up on the shore of Bold Point Park. The RI DEM was notified and Mystic Aquarium was notified to investigate cause of death. Posted by But how exactly the mammal – likely a juvenile – may have died will remain a mystery, said Sarah Callan, the aquarium's manager of animal rescue, on Monday. Advertisement The same carcass was reported across the bay in Providence in January, but with limited access to the water there, crews were not able to move it, Dodge said. Get Rhode Map A weekday briefing from veteran Rhode Island reporters, focused on the things that matter most in the Ocean State. Enter Email Sign Up Kim Keough, spokesperson for the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management, confirmed in an email the animal was 'the same minke whale observed in the area over the winter during the Providence River barge removal operations.' 'At this point, it has moved a little bit farther, but it's four months old – severely decomposed,' Callan said Monday. 'We wouldn't get any viable samples,' Callan added. The whales are common in the waters off Rhode Island. However, Callan said since 2017, elevated numbers of minke whale mortalities have occurred, part of what's been called an Advertisement According to the In the last eight years, there have been 14 dead minke whales in Rhode Island alone, Callan said. A lot of them were clearly struck by vessels, although others have shown signs of infectious disease, she said. 'Unfortunately, this [most recent] one's going to kind of be a mystery because you kind of have to piece together a lot of different things to build the case,' she said. Experts were not able to determine the sex of the whale, as researchers typically have to check the underside of the animal as well as the internal reproductive organs to confirm, Callan said. According to Keough, the whale carcass will remain where it is. 'Given the slow but continuous decomposition over the past several colder months, officials have determined that the most appropriate course of action is to allow the whale to decompose naturally in place,' Keough wrote. 'Removal or burial is not feasible due to the whale's advanced decomposition and its current location. A necropsy would yield limited information about the cause of death, as significant time has passed since the initial stranding.' Dodge reminded the public that although the whale is deceased, it remains protected by the federal 'Marine Mammal Protection Act,' which prohibits people from approaching or touching the animal and from harvesting anything from it.

DEM is still looking for a few more good lifeguards
Scarborough North State Beach in Narragansett. (File photo courtesy of Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management) About 90 lifeguards have already been hired to work at Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (DEM) beaches ahead of the summer 2025 season. But more are still needed. 'DEM is actively recruiting for seasonal positions and continues to accept applications throughout the season,' Chief Public Affairs Officer Kim Keough said in an email confirming the number of guards hired so far. 'We are still hiring for all seasonal roles, especially our lifeguard positions and encourage anyone interested to apply!' Keough said DEM's Division of Parks and Recreation aims to hire over 100 lifeguards for the summer. DEM's seasonal employment webpage still has a posting for seasonal state lifeguards — pay is listed as $18.75 to $19.25 an hour — and seasonal supervising lifeguards — paying $19.50 to $20.00 an hour. To help with recruiting, DEM offers up to $1,000 in incentive bonuses — a $500 sign-on bonus for those hired by June 27 and an additional $500 for those who remain on the job through Sept. 1 All lifeguard candidates must receive state certification and hold valid cards in lifeguard training, first aid, and CPR, including infant, child, and adult. Lifeguards will be on duty and bathrooms and concessions will be open at Scarborough North and Salty Brine state beaches in Narragansett on Saturday, May 10, and Sunday, May 11, and remain open weekends only until daily operations begin Memorial Day. All other state beaches, except Roger Wheeler, will officially open daily Saturday, May 24 and remain open until Labor Day. Beachgoers can plan ahead and buy their 2025 state beach season parking passes to all eight Rhode Island State beach parking lots. Online pass sales can take up to 24 hours to validate. New this year, returning customers with unchanged registration and contact information can bypass the verification process. They allow parking at all eight state beaches but do not guarantee entry. Parking is first-come, first-served. SUBSCRIBE: GET THE MORNING HEADLINES DELIVERED TO YOUR INBOX
