RIVER ROAD COMMENCES DRONE MAGNETICS SURVEY AT STOBART AND GRANTS OPTIONS

River Road Resources Ltd. has commenced a drone magnetics survey at its road-accessible, 725.75-hectare precious metal Stobart property, located 95 kilometres southwest of Williams Lake, B.C.

The drone magnetics survey will be undertaken by Pioneer Exploration Consultants Ltd. of Ottawa, Ont. Pioneer will collect approximately 320 line kilometres of airborne along 25-metre-spaced flight lines and 250-metre-spaced, perpendicular tie lines. Flight lines will be flown at an azimuth of 135 degrees. The survey will be conducted using Pioneer's Drone-Mag system, consisting of a Blacksquare Hercules drone platform, a GEM Systems GSMP-35U potassium vapour magnetometer and GEM Systems GSM-19 Overhauser base stations.

"The tight line spacing of the drone magnetics should allow us to define the full extent of the known quartz veins and also identify potential unknown veins by highlighting subtle anomalies indicative of structural controls like faults, shear zones or magnetic mineral alteration associated with the quartz veins," commented River Road chief executive officer R. Tim Henneberry. "This survey will complement our recently completed lidar survey (see Oct. 29, 2026, news release) as we build the geological model for the Stobart property," he continued.

The Stobart property is an epithermal gold project in the Cretaceous Spences Bridge Group (SBG). Dundee Group recently signed an agreement to earn up to a 60-per-cent interest in Westhaven Gold Corp.'s four (SBG) properties through $85-million in exploration expenditures, highlighting the potential of the SBG gold belt. Historic Stobart grab sampling returned multiple plus-one-gram-per-tonne-gold values to a maximum of five grams per tonne. River Road's 2025 exploration confirmed the earlier rock sampling while soil geochemistry appears to trace the veins along strike.

River Road is earning a 100-per-cent interest subject to a 2-per-cent net smelter return (NSR) royalty in the Stobart property by making payments of $15,000 (paid), issuing 2.3 million shares (800,000 issued) and completing $300,000 in exploration expenditures ($133,430 completed) prior to July 7, 2027.

River Road cautions investors grab samples are select samples and are not necessarily indicative of similar mineralization on the property.
