About Westhaven Gold Corp.

Westhaven is a gold and silver focused exploration and development company targeting low-sulphidation, high-grade, epithermal-style gold and silver mineralization within the Spences Bridge gold belt in Southern British Columbia. Westhaven controls approximately 60,263 hectares within four properties spread along this underexplored belt.

The Shovelnose gold and silver project is the most advanced property, with a 2025 updated preliminary economic assessment that validates the project's potential as a robust, low-cost and high-margin 11-year underground gold mining opportunity with average annual life-of-mine production of 56,000 ounces gold and 313,000 ounces silver with a $454-million (Canadian) after-tax net present value (at a discount rate of 6 per cent) and a 43.2-per-cent IRR (internal rate of return) (base case parameters of $2,400 (U.S.) per ounce gold, $28 (U.S.) per ounce silver and Canadian-dollar/U.S.-dollar exchange rate of $1 (Canadian) to 72 U.S. cents) (1).

On Feb. 23, 2026, Westhaven closed a strategic earn-in agreement with Dundee Corp., whereby Dundee may earn up to a 60-per-cent interest in Westhaven's four Spences Bridge gold belt properties through up to $85-million (Canadian) in staged project expenditures. Under the first phase, Dundee has committed a minimum of $30-million (Canadian), inclusive of a fully financed 50,000-metre drill program and prefeasibility work at Shovelnose. The agreement allows for the accelerated exploration and evaluation of one of Canada's most compelling, undeveloped, high-margin gold and silver assets.
