Nevada Sunrise Metals Corporation (TSXV: NEV,OTC:NVSGF) (OTC Pink: NVSGF) (‘Nevada Sunrise’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce it has completed surface geophysical and geochemical exploration surveys at its Griffon Gold Mine Project (‘Griffon’, or the ‘Project’) in White Pine County, Nevada, USA. Griffon hosts a past-producing gold mine and is located within the Battle Mountain-Eureka Gold Belt, a prolific trend that contains numerous gold mines and deposits.

Highlights of the Fall 2025 Exploration Program

Nevada Sunrise based its Fall 2025 surface exploration program on the results of AI-generated analysis by VRIFY Technology Inc. (‘VRIFY‘) of the extensive historical Griffon geological and geophysical database for the Project (see Nevada Sunrise news release dated September 9, 2025), including:

• Over 700 soil samples collected by APEX Geoscience USA (‘APEX’) will be analyzed by partial leach geochemical analysis by both Ionic Leach and Soil Gas Hydrocarbon (‘SGH’) methods. Each of these methods are capable of detecting subtle indications of buried mineralization that may not show robust surface expression from conventional soil surveys;

• APEX carried out a ‘walking mag’ survey consisting of 50-line kilometres that has provided the first ever high-resolution magnetic data at Griffon. Preliminary interpretation of the data has revealed important information about the structural settings of the past-producing Discovery Ridge and Hammer Ridge deposits – knowledge which now can be applied to other untested target areas at the Project;

• SJ Geophysics Ltd. carried out 3D induced polarization/resistivity (‘3D-IP’) and audiomagnetotellurics (‘AMT’) surveys consisting of 16.8 line kilometres on grids designed to investigate the resistivity and chargeability characteristics of the subsurface at Griffon. These survey types have never been performed at Griffon since the discovery of gold on the property in 1986 (see Figure 1).

Nevada Sunrise anticipates the receipt of geochemical analyses and geophysical modeling from the ground surveys in January 2026. Re-sampling and multi-element geochemical analysis of reverse circulation drill cuttings collected at Griffon by Fremont Gold Ltd. (now Hayasa Metals Inc.) in 2020, which were historically assayed only for gold, is still in progress. The broader analytical package will include pathfinder elements such as antimony, arsenic, thallium, and mercury that could provide geochemical vectors to enhance drill targeting at the Project.

Griffon Permitting Update

In late September 2025, Nevada Sunrise submitted a Plan of Operations (the ‘Plan‘) for Griffon to the United States Forest Service (the ‘USFS‘) to advise the USFS of the Company’s proposed surface disturbance and 2026 drilling plans at Griffon. Receipt of the Plan was confirmed in October 2025 and the Company awaits comments from the USFS regarding the timing and recommended execution of environmental baseline surveys that are a requisite before the commencement of drilling.

About Griffon

Griffon is located approximately 50 kilometres (33 miles) southwest of Ely, Nevada and consists of 89 unpatented mineral claims totaling approximately 1,780 acres (720 hectares). Griffon is situated within a 60 kilometre (40 mile) section of the Battle Mountain-Eureka Belt, which hosts operating gold mines and significant gold deposits (see Figure 2).

In February 2025, the Company entered into a mining lease to purchase Griffon from an arm’s-length party (see Nevada Sunrise news release dated February 20, 2025). Gold was mined at Griffon in two open pits from 1998 to 1999 and was reported to have produced 62,661 ounces of oxide gold until its premature closure in 1999, a year when the price of gold averaged approximately US$278 per ounce.¹

HIGHLIGHTS:

• Restart of mining operations at San Agustin

• Mining the reserve will produce 45,000 ounces at an AISC of $1,990/GEO providing a margin of over $2,300/oz at current spot gold prices

• Oxide targets drilling program underway with 37 holes completed and submitted for analysis

Heliostar Metals Ltd. (TSXV: HSTR,OTC:HSTXF) (OTCQX: HSTXF) (FSE: RGG1) (‘Heliostar’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce that mining, crushing and conveying and stacking of ore onto the leach pad at San Agustin has recommenced.

Heliostar CEO, Charles Funk, commented, ‘Restarting mining at San Agustin is a significant milestone for Heliostar. It delivers on our guidance of a Q4, 2025 restart issued at the beginning of the year and sets the Company up for a large increase in consolidated gold production in 2026. Mining the current reserve will produce 45,000 ounces of gold expected to generate US$40M in cash flow at a US$3,000 gold price. Further, the Company is in the middle of a 10,000-15,000 metre drill program focused on finding potential extensions of the orebody that may support an increase in mine life at San Agustin.’

‘Investing in Heliostar at the beginning of the year required trust that the many undefined opportunities recognized by our team within our portfolio could be progressed. We move toward the end of the year having crystalized many of these opportunities. We have certainty in our production profile at San Agustin and La Colorada going into 2026 and look forward to providing formal guidance in January. We have shown the value of our growth opportunities with studies on our flagship Ana Paula and Cerro del Gallo projects. With more drilling completed in 2025 than the entire previous history of Heliostar, we aim to continue to build on our 8.2M gold and gold-equivalent ounce M&I resource base^1,2. We plan to deliver continued production growth, and grow the value of Heliostar on a per share basis. We are only just getting started!’

Restart Update

The Company announced it had received the final approvals from the government to restart mining at San Agustin on July 22, 2025. Since that time, Heliostar has rapidly advanced work to restart mining activities at the operation. This included purchase and transfer of the surface access rights to Heliostar, adjusting the location of a power line tower and establishing surface access roads to the Corner area.

Over the past several months, the Company has relocated the vegetation and topsoil at the Corner area and recommissioned the 30,000 tonne per day crushing circuit while residual heap leach operations have continued uninterrupted. This has allowed Heliostar to restart open pit mining with two ore blasts and two waste blasts completed to date. The mining contractor has successfully mobilized 90% of the mobile equipment fleet to site which will allow the operation to achieve production targets. Crushing activities continue to ramp up to full capacity with stacking of new oxide ore on the leach pad underway.

Technical Report Summary

On January 14, 2025, the Company filed an amended and restated technical report titled ‘San Agustin Operations, Durango State, Mexico, NI 43-101 Technical Report’ prepared by Mr. Todd Wakefield, RM SME, Mine Technical Services, Mr. David Thomas, P.Geo., Mine Technical Services, Mr. Jeffrey Choquette, P.E., Hard Rock Consulting, Mr. Carl Defilippi, RM SME, Kappes Cassiday and Associates and Ms. Dawn Garcia, CPG, Stantec with an effective date of November 30, 2024 (the ‘Technical Report’).

The life-of-mine (LOM) plan set out in the Technical Report indicates that a probable mineral reserve of 68,000 ounces of gold can be exploited based on 1.2 years of mine life at a site level all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of US$1,990/oz Au. The initial capital cost in the Technical Report is estimated at US$4.2M.

The Technical Report demonstrates a post-tax NPV5% of US$35.3M, a post-tax IRR of 548% and a payback period of 0.2 years for the upside case at a $3,000/oz gold price.

The mineral reserve estimate included in the Technical Report is based on operation of the existing crusher and conveyor system having a nameplate throughput capacity of about 30,000 tonnes/day and the continued operation of the heap leach and carbon-in-column (CIC) process circuit processing ore from the expanded open pit. The mineral reserve estimate included in the Technical Report is presented below. The expected operating performance and operating cost forecasts were compiled with the benefit of benchmarking historical performance at San Agustin and the input of seasoned professionals knowledgeable of the conventional technologies being used at San Agustin, the expected consumption quantities of key supplies, and commercial pricing for goods and services in Mexico.

Oxide Growth Targets

With mining now started at San Agustin mine, the Company is working to extend the mine life. To date, 37 drill holes totalling 3,300m from the ongoing 10,000-15,000m drill program have been completed with assays pending. This drill program is focused on defining additional gold-bearing oxide gold material at the margins of the current pit and at the edge of the Corner Area that can extend the life of the operation. Drilling at the Corner SW, MKT and Phase 3 SW areas (shown below in Figure 6) has been completed with the drill currently active at the Corner SW area.

Higher-grade oxide results from the priority Corner SW target area drilled by a previous operator include:

• Hole 14-SAGRC-196 grading 3.52 grams per tonne (g/t) Gold over 18.3 metres from 32.0 metres downhole

• Hole 14-SAGRC-177 grading 0.34 g/t Gold over 15.24 metres from 27.4 metres downhole

The targets are the extensions of mineralized corridors defined by grade control drilling and through a comprehensive re-logging and multi-element re-assaying program undertaken by Heliostar geologists in H1, 2025. The increase in gold price has also increased the potential of certain lower grade areas that were not previously a priority at San Agustin. The base case economics in the January 2025 Technical Report were shown at a $2,100/oz gold price within resource pit shells calculated at $2,150/oz.
