Edmonton, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – April 20, 2026) – Grizzly Discoveries Inc. (TSXV: GZD) (FSE: G6H) (OTCQB: GZDIF) (“Grizzly” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has recently received results from 2025 sampling at the Greenwood, BC Critical Minerals and Precious Metals Project from APEX Geoscience Ltd. (APEX). The collection of a total of 218 rock samples has resulted in the discovery of three new metal occurrences at the Keno area, the Old No. 7 Minesite area and at Myers Creek. Additional sampling at two other target areas that are slated for future drilling, Midway and Imperial, have confirmed grades of prior work and provided additional information on the continuity of mineralization. The targets are all part of the Greenwood Critical Minerals and Precious Metals Project in British Columbia (Figure 1).

The focus of the 2026 program will be additional Induced Polarization (IP) surveys at the Sappho and Motherlode areas, along with trenching and drilling at Midway, targeting the historical Midway Mine. The initial 2026 drilling is planned for the Sappho area to expand the copper-silver-gold-platinum group element (Cu-Ag-Au-PGE) skarn intersections in previous drilling and to test a new IP chargeability anomaly (See Company news release dated February 26, 2026). Additional prospecting, mapping and reconnaissance sampling will be conducted across the entire project area throughout 2026.

Sampling 2025 Highlights

• Three new Au-Cu-Ag discoveries at the Keno area, the Old No 7. Mine area and at Myers Creek area (Figure 1). Additional 2025 sampling at the historical Midway and Imperial mines continues to return outstanding results, and reinforces that both targets warrant drilling.
• At the Old No 7 Mine area, an area with a number of old workings, a total of 22 rock grab samples returned up 11.2 grams per tonne (g/t) Au (0.327 ounces per ton – opt), 252 g/t (7.35 opt) Ag, 699 parts per million (ppm) Cu, 8,810 ppm lead (Pb), 1,980 ppm zinc (Zn) and 298 ppm antimony (Sb). A total of 8 of the 22 grab samples returned > 1 g/t Au (0.029 opt) and 6 of the 22 samples returned > 50 g/t Ag (1.46 opt) (Table 1).
• At the Keno area (headwaters of Skeff Creek), part of the Mt Attwood – Overlander core block (Figure 1), a total of 5 rock grab samples retuned up to 4.48 g/t Au (0.131 opt), 425 g/t Ag (12.4 opt), 1,105 ppm Cu, 530 ppm molybdenum (Mo), 2.96% Pb, 695 ppm Zn and 751 ppm Sb from a new showing (Table 1). The Keno area has a number of historical workings with quartz veins and skarn in Attwood or Knob Hill sedimentary rocks. The samples were collected from malachite stained sedimentary outcrops.
• A total of 18 reconnaissance rock grab samples collected over a large area in the Myers Creek area south of Rock Creek has returned 2 samples with 1.11 g/t and 2.78 g/t Au along with anomalous copper from the historical Myers Creek showing area (Table 1). The samples were collected from sheared and gossanous Anarchist sedimentary rocks. The location of the samples is only 11 km northeast of the Buckhorn Mine in Washington State (Figure 1).
• At the Midway area, new sampling including selective rock grab and composite chip samples from outcrop and trenches have yielded up to 17.95 g/t (0.524 opt) Au, 2,780 g/t (81.1 opt) Ag, 917 ppm Cu, 2.65% Pb, 3.5% Zn and 1,580 ppm Sb at the Midway Mine; up to 0.44 g/t (0.013 opt) Au, 24.9 g/t (0.726 opt) Ag and 1.94% Cu at the Texas Bruce Lois historical workings; and up to 1.35 g/t (0.039 opt) Au, 8.7 g/t (0.254 opt) Ag, 1,180 ppm chromium (Cr), 2,220 ppm nickel (Ni) and 185 ppm Sb from the Picturestone trenches (Table 1).
• Prior sampling in the Midway Mine historical pit yielded a range of 12.05 g/t (0.351 opt) Au up to 70.8 g/t (2.07 opt) Au (See Company news release dated October17, 2022).
• New chip sampling from the Midway Mine trench has yielded 4.43 g/t (0.129 opt) Au, 478 g/t (13.9 opt) Ag, 2,540 ppm Pb, 987 ppm Zn and 215 ppm Sb across 6 m in a composite across the trench (Figure 2).
• The Midway area is being targeted for Cu-Au skarn and epithermal Au-Ag-Cu-Pb-Zn-Sb polymetallic deposits (Figure 2).
• All highly anomalous samples are from outcrop and characterized by the presence of abundant pyrite, arsenopyrite with visible galena and sphalerite in a siliceous chalcedonic host. The mineralization is hosted in polymetallic veins that display the presence of Pb, Zn, Cu, arsenic (As) and Sb and are likely epithermal in nature.
• A selective rock grab sample from outcrop 200 m west of the main Midway Mine yielded 15.85 g/t Au (0.462 oz/t Au) and 1,530 g/T Ag (44.6 oz/t Ag), illustrating that there is potential for additional high-grade mineralization in the area (Figure 2).
• At the historical Imperial Mine, new sampling including selective rock grab and composite chip samples from outcrop and trenches have yielded up to 13.9 g/t (0.405 opt) Au, 4,210 g/t (122.8 opt) Ag, 950 ppm Cu, 3.51% Pb, 3.35% Zn and 1,905 ppm Sb in rock grab samples and 1.43 g/t (0.042 opt) Au, 224 g/t (6.53 opt) Ag, 155 ppm Cu, 0.3% Pb, 0.83% Zn, and 77 ppm Sb across 4 m in composite chip samples.
• At the Imperial historical mine, samples are characterized by the presence of abundant and visible pyrite, galena and sphalerite in quartz veins and/or pods of silicified metavolcanic or metasedimentary rocks (Greenstones). The mineralization can be described as polymetallic veins and altered wall rock with anomalous Ag-Au-Pb-Zn and minor Cu. Granodiorite and diorite intrusions have been noted nearby. High levels of chromium and nickel reflect the presence of altered ultramafic rocks with serpentine‐carbonate alteration commonly identified as listwanite.

Brian Testo, President and CEO of Grizzly Discoveries, stated, “We are excited and are looking forward to pursuing a number of critical minerals targets along with high grade gold – silver – copper – lead – zinc showings and historical mines with drilling commencing soon in 2026 along with additional exploration for significant battery metal prospects in our current 170,000+ acre land holdings in the Greenwood District. We have barely scratched the surface in terms of exploration!“

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – April 1, 2026) –  Riverside Resources Inc.  (TSXV: RRI) (OTCQB: RVSDF) (FSE: 5YY0) (“Riverside” or the “Company“), is pleased to announce the commencement of the Phase 2 exploration program at La Union Project in Sonora, Mexico. The program builds on the success of the 12-hole Phase 1 drill program announced January 22, 2026, which delivered a new sediment-hosted gold discovery at Luis Hill returning 42m grading 0.3 g/t gold. Funded by Questcorp, Phase 2 has mobilized teams to the field across four main target areas, where work will include geological mapping, geochemistry, geophysics, and a property-wide structural analysis.

“We are pleased to have a fully funded exploration program and have immediately activated our team in the field,” said John-Mark Staude, President and CEO, Riverside Resources Inc. “I have just returned from Sonora, where the Phase 2 program is progressing well, with the Riverside team conducting safe, high-quality work encompassing sampling, mapping, geological targeting, and geochemistry with the aeromagnetic geophysics expansion launching shortly. Building directly on our Phase 1 results, including the high-grade channel sampling at Union Mine and the new sediment-hosted gold discovery at Luis Hill, we have multiple well-defined targets to advance. Riverside is pleased to continue working with partner Questcorp, and as a shareholder in Questcorp, our interests in the success of the Union Project are well aligned.”

Planned exploration for this program includes:

• Follow-up work on sediment-hosted gold (“SHGD”) targets identified during Phase 1 drilling, where gold was intersected in sedimentary rocks below the primary Carbonate Replacement Deposit (“CRD”) host units, consistent with districts known to host both CRD and SHGD deposit styles.
• Underground follow-up sampling at the Union Mine, where the previously announced chip-channel interval on January 22, 2026, remains open on both ends and warrants further investigation.
• CRD targeting at the Famosa North area, where lead and zinc anomalies have never been drill-tested; field studies in this area will support upcoming drill targeting. The Famosa mineral concessions were recently consolidated into Riverside’s land package, as announced on March 18, 2026.
• Structural geology work in the northern portion of the property, where consulting structural experts are working alongside Riverside’s local field staff to refine drill targeting.
• Follow up on sediment-hosted gold targets in the eastern portion of the Union Project district.
• Follow-up exploration at Luis Hill, where Phase 1 drill hole UND25-9 returned 42m grading 0.3 g/t gold in sediment-hosted rocks representing a new style of Carlin-like gold mineralization for this part of Sonora. Phase 2 field work will expand upon this discovery to define additional drill targets.

Running concurrently with the field work described above is an expanded aeromagnetic drone survey that builds upon the Phase 1 geophysical dataset. The expanded survey will extend coverage in all directions of the mineral property, generating data that will support Phase 2 drill targeting in advance of a drilling program planned for early summer 2026.

As announced on March 18, 2026, the Famosa area mineral concessions have been formally transferred and consolidated into Riverside’s land package. This strengthens the foundation for the Phase 2 work program, as the geology and mineralization trends within the Famosa area extend northward and eastward into the primary Phase 2 exploration focus zones.

The Union Project hosts multiple district-scale target areas, and the Phase 2 program is designed to systematically advance the most promising of these toward drill testing. The program will evaluate three distinct styles of mineralization identified during Phase 1: carbonate replacement deposit (CRD) mineralization, sediment-hosted gold in calcareous siltstones and carbonaceous sediments comparable to Nevada’s Carlin-style deposits, and structurally controlled gold mineralization within quartzite units. With permits in hand, site access secured, and both a drill contractor and geophysical service provider selected, all logistics are advancing toward a summer 2026 drilling program.

About the Union Project

The Union Project is a district-scale carbonate replacement deposit (CRD) exploration project located in Sonora, Mexico. The project hosts historical mining areas and multiple exploration targets associated with gold, silver, zinc, and lead mineralization within carbonate and structurally controlled settings. Riverside operates the project through its Mexican subsidiary while advancing exploration in partnership with Questcorp.

March 18, 2026 – Vancouver, BC: Riverside Resources Inc. (“Riverside” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: RRI) (OTCQB: RVSDF) (FSE: 5YY0), is pleased to announce the successful consolidation of the Famosa Area with three mineral concessions within the Union Project district in Sonora, Mexico, through the completion of the final payment and transfer of mineral title from Pacific Comox S.A. de C.V. to Riverside’s wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, RRM Exploración S.A.P.I. de C.V.. This provides the Company with clear ownership and the ability to advance exploration and, potentially, move toward mining based on future development results.
 
The transaction completes the acquisition of three mineral concessions: La Famosa, Dana 7, and Dana 7 which form an important portion of the southern part of the Union Project district. These concessions are mineral titles 199006, 220840, and 220841, with validity extending from 1994 through 2044 and 2003 through 2053, respectively. This long-term validity and fully titled status fit with the rest of the district mineral titles that the Company is advancing through its spring 2026 mineral exploration program.
 
The concessions were originally secured through an exploration agreement signed in August 2021 between RRM Exploración S.A.P.I. de C.V. and Pacific Comox S.A. de C.V., which provided Riverside with an option to purchase the claims within a five-year period (2021–2026). With the completion of the final payment of US$125,000, Riverside has now exercised the purchase option, and the titles have been formally transferred to Riverside. The total consideration for the acquisition amounts to US$175,000, and notably no net smelter royalty (“NSR”) or any other type of royalty is attached to this transaction.
 
“We are pleased to complete the consolidation of the Famosa area within the Union Project, securing full ownership with no royalty burden for the transaction on these key concessions,” said John-Mark Staude, President and CEO, Riverside Resources Inc. “This strengthens our district-scale land position and provides greater flexibility as we continue advancing exploration at Union with our partner Questcorp.”
 
The Famosa Area hosts carbonate replacement deposit (CRD) style mineralization and structurally controlled gold mineralization within dolomite and quartzite units, located in the southern portion of the broader Union Project district. The consolidation strengthens Riverside’s land position within the Union district and supports ongoing exploration efforts targeting CRD-style gold–silver–polymetallic mineralization.
 
This transaction represents another step in the systematic advancement of the Union Project, where Riverside has been working in partnership with Questcorp under an option agreement that provides for up to C$5.5 million in exploration expenditures funded by Questcorp while Riverside retains equity exposure and a 2.5% net smelter royalty on the project. Previous exploration programs at Union have included geological mapping, geophysics, diamond drilling, and high-grade rock chip channel sampling that have confirmed the presence of gold- and polymetallic-bearing CRD-style and sediment hosted gold-style mineralization across multiple targets within the district. By securing the Famosa concessions outright, Riverside further consolidates its district-scale land position and enhances the exploration potential across the southern portion of the Union Project. The expanded control of mineral titles provides increased flexibility for future exploration programs and supports the continued advancement of the project with partner-funded exploration.
 
Further technical updates related to exploration activities at the Union Project will be provided as programs progress.

Denver, Colorado–(Newsfile Corp. – March 2, 2026) – Elemental Royalty Corporation (TSXV: ELE) (NASDAQ: ELE) (“Elemental” or “the Company“) notes the announcement by Quilla Resources Inc. (“Quilla”) on the successful production of first copper cathode from the Chapi Copper Project (“Chapi”) in southern Peru. Elemental holds a 2.0% Net Smelter Return (“NSR”) royalty on the project.

Highlights

• First production of copper cathode at the Chapi Copper Project following Quilla’s acquisition in December 2024
• Ramp-up underway toward plant nameplate capacity of approximately 10,000 tonnes per annum of copper cathode
• Elemental expects first royalty payment from Chapi in Q1 2026

Chief Executive Officer and Director of Elemental Royalty, David M. Cole, commented: “Quilla has made phenomenal progress at Chapi with first copper cathode produced, and ramp-up underway toward nameplate capacity. This rapid progression through key de-risking milestones underscores the project’s meaningful value and significant upside potential.”

Details
Quilla has announced first production of copper cathode at Chapi following the acquisition of the brownfield asset in December 2024. Quilla undertook a comprehensive technical review, engineering evaluation, and operational planning before commencing refurbishment at the mine and solvent extraction and electrowinning (SX-EW) plant facilities. The restart was achieved within the originally stated schedule and budget, reflecting management’s strong execution, operational discipline, and reaffirming Elemental’s confidence in Quilla, and in-country subsidiary Minera Pampa de Cobre S.A.C., as operators.

Following the successful commissioning of the SX-EW the plant, Quilla have stated their intention to progressively increase operating rates toward an initial 10,000 tonnes of copper cathodes per year, while completing remaining capital projects and site optimization initiatives to support stable, long-term operations.

Elemental Royalty on Chapi
Acquired in January 2025, the royalty comprises a 2% NSR on minerals produced from the approximately 26,000-hectare property, as well as a 2% NSR royalty on any minerals produced from properties acquired by Quilla within a two-kilometer area of interest (“AOI”). In addition, the agreement includes an additional 2% NSR royalty from any minerals that are produced from outside the Property Royalty area, but that are processed at the Chapi Solvent Extraction Electro-Winning (“SX-EW”) plant.

Background on the Chapi Mine
The Chapi Mine is located in southern Peru’s Moquegua and Arequipa Departments at an elevation of approximately 2,750 meters, and has ready access approximately 50 kilometers south-southeast from the city of Arequipa. Historical, small-scale copper production, which is poorly documented, occurred intermittently from the 1930s through the early 1980s. Subsequently, between 2006 and 2012 the Chapi Mine produced approximately 5,000 to 8,500 tonnes per annum, initially of copper sulphates from open-pit and underground mining and heap leaching, and later copper cathodes from open-pit mining, heap leaching, and SX-EW (solvent extraction-electrowinning) processing. The grades mined during 2006-2012 were reported as 0.59% – 1.04% copper. The operations were halted in 2012 due to declining copper prices and operational challenges that were mainly related to insufficient ore control on materials delivered to the leach pads.

The historical Chapi Mine is comprised of two principal open pits, underground workings, a crushing and agglomeration circuit, heap leach pads, a solvent extraction plant, an electrowinning copper cathode plant, and related infrastructure including mine camp, office facilities, water supply, and power. Since 2012, Chapi has been under care and maintenance with the principal permits for mining operations remaining in place under a temporary suspension.
