Kinross Gold Commences 2025 Drill Program at Riley Gold's PWC Gold Project (Cortez District - Nevada)
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 29, 2025) - Riley Gold Corp. (TSXV: RLYG) (OTCQB: RLYGF) ("Riley Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the 2025 drilling campaign is underway at the Company's Pipeline West/Clipper Gold Project ("PWC") operated by Kinross Gold U.S.A., Inc. ("Kinross"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Kinross Gold Corporation (TSX: K) (NYSE: KGC). "We are happy that Kinross is ahead of schedule and to have the 2025 drilling well underway at PWC. As highlighted in our April 29, 2025 news release, the Kinross technical team along with Riley Gold's Paul Dobak, have defined high-priority framework drill targets in the highest-grade gold-in-soils anomaly known area on the property. These are exciting targets, based on geological and geophysical data interpretation, in areas that have never been drill tested within our 25 square km land package. Our PWC project is within the Cortez District that has a significant history of gold production and current reserves. PWC adjoins Nevada Gold Mines LLC ("NGM"), a joint venture between Barrick Gold Corp. and Newmont Corporation, that has current production within their Cortez/Pipeline complex," commented Todd Hilditch, CEO of Riley Gold. 2025 Kinross Exploration Plan and Map A comprehensive geologic model was built for comparison with the many Cortez Districts >5.0-million-ounce gold discoveries. The new step-out wide spaced framework drill holes are being spotted approximately 2.5 kilometers ("km") (up to 8,200 feet) northwest of the first Kinross drill hole in 2024 (see Figure 1 below) and include northwest vectoring to the highest-grade surface geochemical gold anomalies from the soil survey near the intersection of two major structures. The primary target is a large, disseminated gold deposit peripheral to the Gold Acres stock, which is the geologic setting for NGM's Pipeline gold deposit (see Figure 2 property location). Compiled geologic mapping, geophysical surveys, historical drill results, and gold-in-soil survey results uploaded in Leapfrog software support the new 2025 drill hole locations. Recent geologic modeling and interpretation by Kinross also provides a supporting structural foundation and information for the 2025 Drill Program. Additional soil sampling is planned by Kinross for the 2025 field season to increase surface geochemical coverage adjacent to the 2023 soil survey completed by Riley Gold. The previous soil survey returned significant anomalous gold-in-soil values that extended more than 3 km. Several pathfinder elements, associated with both Carlin-type and intrusive-related gold deposits, were also elevated in the first soil survey. Figure 1 - 2025 Drill Target Area To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Riley Gold entered into an exploration and venture option agreement (the "Agreement") with Kinross on March 13, 2024. The Agreement grants Kinross the right to earn up to a 75% interest in Riley Gold's PWC project by spending a minimum of US$20 million (see news release dated March 14, 2024 for details). PWC is located in Lander County, Nevada and consists of approximately 24.7 km² in the heart of the significant gold producing Cortez District (Battle Mountain - Eureka Trend). Kinross is funding and operating PWC and has a strategic 9.9% (on a partially diluted basis) equity interest in the Company acquired through a private placement. About PWC PWC constitutes a very prospective exploration property for Carlin-type, disseminated and replacement gold deposits. PWC consists of a land package totaling approximately 24.7 square kms of unpatented mining claims and patented fee lands adjoining NGM. PWC is situated along the Cortez Structural Zone of the exceptionally productive Cortez Trend within the Battle Mountain - Eureka Trend in north central Nevada (Figure 2). The Cortez and Pipeline complexes (adjoining Riley's PWC project boundary) are top producers within Nevada, a State that has consistently produced between 4-5 million ounces of gold a year.

Previous drilling on the property did not provide results that warranted continued exploration under current junior market conditions. The Company is electing to preserve cash and reduce costs.

The operator was able to swim back to the PWC. The operator of the PWC was issued a citation for operating a PWC above idle speed within 100 feet of an object. Officials said no one was injured during the crash. [SIGN UP: WSB-TV Daily Headlines Newsletter] At 3:00 p.m. on Monday, game wardens were dispatched to a boat accident near Glade Marina on Allatoona Lake, where a PWC that was jumping the wake of a larger vessel hit the other vessel, causing damage to both. The operator of the PWC was charged with violating the 100' law. No injuries were sustained. Around the same time on Monday, game wardens were notified by Putnam County dispatch that a PWC hit the rip rap (rocks) at the Highway 44 bridge on Lick Creek at Lake Oconee. When they arrived, they learned that two teen girls were riding on the PWC, driven by a teen boy, when it started to rain hard. The driver told game wardens he couldn't see because of the rain and was driving over 50 miles per hour, trying to get back to the safety of the boat ramp, when he went up the rip rap, almost to the guard rail on the highway. The two girls were taken to the Medical Center of Central Georgia with non-life-threatening injuries. The driver was taken to Good Samaritan's Hospital by a family, also with non-life-threatening injuries.

Sea-Doo is Encouraging All Riders to Prioritize Safety and Responsible Riding This Summer Français
VALCOURT, QC, May 23, 2025 /CNW/ - As summer is right around the corner, Sea-Doo, iconic brand of BRP Inc. (TSX: DOO) (NASDAQ: DOOO), is inviting all boaters and personal watercraft (PWC) riders to prioritize safety on the water all season long. Sea-Doo takes safe riding seriously and, through BRP's Responsible Rider Program, the team wants to empower all riders to ride responsibly regardless of whether they are on the ocean, a lake or a river. To do so, Sea-Doo is announcing the launch of the Water 101 module of the Responsible Rider Masterclass and sharing tips to ensure a safe and fun summer on the water. "As a leader in the personal watercraft industry, we have a responsibility to mobilize the community and encourage responsible riding. Sea-Doo wants to ensure that riders can enjoy personal watercraft for years to come," says Jérémi Doyon-Roch, Global Marketing Director, Sea-Doo, Ski-Doo and Lynx at BRP. "As the season begins, it is our goal to offer riders the tools and resources needed to enjoy days on the water safely with family and friends." The Responsible Rider Masterclass, Powered by BRP. BRP and Tread Lightly! launched the Responsible Rider Masterclass in February of 2025 with its first module, Snow 101. With the boating season approaching, the Water 101 module is now live and aims to equip boaters and PWC riders of all levels with the knowledge they need to ride responsibly and lead by example. The short and free online training features Sea-Doo Ambassador Daniel "Aqua Dan" do Nascimento and is based on BRP's three Responsible Rider pillars: riding etiquette, environment and safety. 5 Tips to Ride Responsibly All Summer Long While personal watercraft and pontoons are sound and reliable machines, following some basic safety practices drastically reduces the likelihood of preventable incidents occurring on the water. Here are just a few of the many tips to keep in mind: Plan Smart: Before you ride, make sure to check local laws, be prepared for the weather, and download a marine app like BRP GO! to find safe places to discover. Follow the rules of the water and slow down in restricted speed areas. Heads Up: Always stop before checking your phone or GPS. Keep it sealed in a dry compartment while underway. Don't mix recreation with drugs and alcohol and be aware of fatigue. Protect the Playground: Clean, drain and dry your watercraft after every ride to stop invasive species. Stay away from protected zones such as coral reefs, and be mindful of not disturbing marine ecosystems. Bring a mesh bag for trash and leave every place better than you found it! Ride Safe: Always wear neoprene shorts under your personal floating device (PFD) to stay protected on the water. Make sure your gear is properly sized and that your PFD is PWC specific and Coast Guard-approved. Attach the emergency engine cut-off lanyard to your PFD. Respect Fellow Riders: Keep a safe distance from other boats and PWCs, and yield to non-motorized watercraft. Pay attention to noise levels in residential areas.
