The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) overseeing the well-being of children, eliminated thousands of pages of regulatory guidance that had been languishing on the books as far back as 1976, Fox News Digital learned. 

The Administration for Children and Families is a Health and Human Services agency charged with promoting the economic and social well-being of kids and their families via overseeing programs such as the Head Start school readiness program, child support enforcement, foster care and adoption services, and managing unaccompanied minors. 

The office rescinded 35,781 pages of guidance documents after an agencywide review found 74% of its ‘sub-regulatory footprint’ was obsolete. The documents included technical bulletins, program instructions, action transmittals and dear colleague letters — letters from federal agencies or members of Congress that typically inform colleagues on new guidance or legislation — that had accumulated across the past 50 years. 

The Administration for Children and Families emphasized that the rescinded documents were not erased, but instead archived online along with a detailed list of current guidance documented on the Department of Health and Human Services’ website. 

The Administration for Children and Families was officially established in 1991, but its origins and work stretch back decades, inheriting programs and guidance from earlier Health and Human Services offices — including major initiatives that date to the mid-1970s. 

‘President Trump’s regulatory reform agenda is unparalleled in U.S. history,’ the Administration for Children and Families Assistant Secretary Alex J. Adams said in a statement to Fox News Digital. 

‘ACF is proud to do our part to advance the President’s agenda by taking the first of many planned actions, namely removing 36,000 pages of obsolete sub-regulatory guidance that had quietly accumulated over decades and shining a brighter spotlight on what remains,’ he added. ‘In essence, ACF has brought our regulatory dark matter to light.’ 

The rescinded guidance included program-specific documents such as a memo on filing the June 1999 Child and Family Services Plan and Final Report, 2005 avian flu guidance and a 2010 staffing-change notice for the now-defunct Division of Energy Assistance.

The Administration for Children and Families directed its Office of Legislation and Budget to compile a comprehensive list of guidance documents considered active — a process that took three weeks just to catalog the files, the agency said. The inventory produced more than 4,000 documents totaling about 55,776 pages, dating back to 1976. 

Each program office was required to justify whether the individual documents were still needed, and ordered to provide written rationale if guidance was deemed obsolete or necessary. Obsolete documents were considered ones that related to old funding cycles, guidance superseded by newer rules, duplicate statutes or documents related to programs that no longer list, Fox News Digital learned. 

The Administration for Children and Families said the goal of cleaning up the office with outdated guidance is to reduce confusion and allow grant recipients to focus resources on ‘delivering outcomes for American children and families,’ rather than navigating tens of thousands of pages of outdated documentation.

The move aligns with the Trump administration’s broader push to pare back regulations and cut what it calls bureaucratic red tape.

The Federal Communications Commission, for example, took a hatchet to outdated policies in a sweeping deregulation effort in 2025, including doing away with outdated guidance on the use of telegraphs, rabbit-ear TV receivers and phone booth rules in July 2025.

Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico’s campaign is $2.5 million richer this week and a bit closer to victory after Stephen Colbert, host of ‘The Late Show’ on CBS, made up a ridiculous lie about being censored by President Trump.

It took a few days for the dust to settle, but now that we have a clear picture of what happened, it is about as bad as it can be. In fact, it would likely be a fireable offense if the ratings challenged Colbert was not already slated to get the ax in May.

According to Colbert’s version of events, which is falling apart faster than a house of cards in a wind tunnel, he was told by CBS lawyers on Monday, just minutes before he was set to interview Talarico, that he could not air the conversation. Why? Because of the Trump administration Federal Communication Commission’s new rules on equal time.

A petulant Colbert went on to tell his audience that he wasn’t even supposed to mention being censored to them, but, putting on his free speech super hero cape, he would do the interview anyway, defying his bosses and release it on YouTube.

The only problem with all of this is that, according to both CBS and the FCC, nobody told Colbert the interview could not air. He just made it up. All that happened was that CBS lawyers told him if he had Talarico on, he might also have to give equal time to his Demcorat primary opponent, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas.

It is not clear why Colbert would have any issue with having Crockett on, unless perhaps he and his friends in high places think the preppy White Bible school boy is more electable than the sassy Black finger-snapping lady.

Talarico was fundraising off of Colbert’s lie within minutes and raked in $2.5 million. Oh, and did I mention that early voting in Texas started on Tuesday, the day after this duplicitous debacle?

It truly was remarkable to watch. Even by Wednesday, when they knew quite well Colbert had not been censored, CNN had an entire panel that argued the Trump administration’s pressure on CBS had backfired because of the fundraising and the 5 million YouTube views the video got.

But there was no pressure on Colbert from the Trump administration. As FCC Chairman Brendan Carr told Fox News Channel’s Laura Ingraham, ‘CBS was very clear that Colbert could run the interview that he wanted with that political candidate. They just said, you may have to comply with equal time… But instead of doing that, they claimed that they were victims.’

All that the FCC has said, without taking any action, is that it may enforce equal time rules for talk shows, something it has not done in the past, but given how skewed late night comedy and daytime talk have become, it is worth considering.

‘The View,’ ABC’s mid-morning girl gaggle, had 128 liberal guests in 2025 and only two conservatives, one of which was actress Cheryl Hines, who is actually not conservative, just married to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. 

Put bluntly, the reason that the equal time rules have not been enforced on talk shows is that they never had to be, because Johnny Carson, Tom Snyder and Phil Donahue didn’t turn their shows into nonstop political ads. Obviously, that has changed.

Colbert has been very clear that he purposefully uses his ‘comedy show’ to push a political agenda, in this case, to the benefit of James Talarico and the detriment of Jasmine Crockett, who is now in the awkward position of defending the Trump administration.

However, wherever one comes down on the equal time rules, it is crystal clear that Colbert is just flat-out, stone-cold lying when he says they were used to ban his interview from the air. Sadly, it is a lie many Democratic voters may take to their deathbeds.

There were two big victims to Colbert’s perfidy, the first being Crockett, who may be discovering that she is a little too Brown and uppity for the rich White men who still control liberal media and politics.

The second victim was the average citizen, who was separated from their money based on Colbert’s lies to fill the coffers of Talarico.

Thankfully, we only have about two more months to deal with Colbert’s nonsense and lies, at least on CBS late night. After that he can go to YouTube and interview anyone he pleases, just as he could have on Monday night.

The senior lawmaker leading the U.S. House of Representatives investigation of Jeffrey Epstein is the latest high-profile official to sound off on the arrest of former British royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., reiterated the need for accountability and lauded the Trump administration’s commitment to releasing its own information on Epstein.

‘There must be accountability for anyone who was involved in Jeffrey Epstein’s horrific crimes,’ Comer told Fox News Digital. ‘The Justice Department’s transparency is ensuring that no one is above the law — even British royalty.’

News first broke of the former Prince Andrew’s arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office in the early hours of Thursday morning on the U.S. East Coast.

It comes after a British police department said it was looking into a complaint that Andrew shared confidential information with Epstein, according to the BBC.

While he has denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein, Andrew was one of the late pedophile’s most well-known associates through the years.

Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s earliest and most vocal accusers, alleged in a memoir that Andrew had sex with her when she was a minor.

Giuffre died of suicide in April of last year. Epstein died of suicide in a Manhattan jail while awaiting trial in 2019.

Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., one of the earliest U.S. lawmakers to call for Andrew’s arrest in October 2025, told Fox News Digital, ‘If you’re watching a former prince get arrested today, remember: four Republicans refused to flinch, refused to fold, and forced the Epstein files into the light.’

‘Courage has consequences. So does corruption,’ said Mace, also a House Oversight Committee member.

She was one of four House Republicans who voted with Democrats to force a vote on mandating that the Department of Justice (DOJ) release all of its files related to Epstein’s case. The subsequent House vote was nearly unanimous, with just one GOP lawmaker voting against it.

Meanwhile, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee sounded off with renewed calls for accountability for other alleged Epstein associates.

Rep. Suhas Subramanyam, D-Va., said Andrew ‘appears repeatedly in the documents we have uncovered as having knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes and is specifically named by victims as someone who engaged in wrongdoing.’

‘We hope today’s arrest will lead to answers and show that there will be accountability even if you hide, regardless of how rich and powerful you are,’ he said in a statement.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., wrote on X, ‘This is exactly the kind of accountability we need from the Department of Justice. It’s time to bring the perpetrators to justice.’

First Development Resources plc (AIM: FDR), the UK-based, Australia-focused exploration company with mineral interests in Western Australia and the Northern Territory, is pleased to provide results and interpretation from the December 2025 stream sediment sampling programme completed at its Selta Project (‘Selta’ or the ‘Project’) located in the Aileron Province of Australia’s Northern Territory.

The programme was undertaken across the West Nintabrinna and Ingallan rare-earth element (‘REE’) target areas and was designed as a low-cost, first-pass exercise to refine previously identified anomalism and define priority areas for focused follow-up exploration.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Highest assay of 2,103 ppm total rare-earth elements + yttrium (‘TREE+Y’) returned at West Nintabrinna, with coherent multi-sample anomalism confirming a fertile intrusive system. Encouraging TREE+Y results (up to 385 ppm) also returned from Ingallan.
  • Target areas significantly refined: West Nintabrinna from c.75km² to c.5km² (‘Tourmaline’) and Ingallan reduced from approximately 90km² to c.8.5km² (‘Peake Bore’), materially improving targeting precision.
  • Geochemical signatures indicate localised granite fractionation and enrichment consistent with potential pegmatite-hosted lithium (Li) and REE mineralisation.
  • Discrete intrusive features at West Nintabrinna and distinct 1.8km strike pale outcrop identified at Ingallan define clear follow-up mapping and drill-target pathways.
  • Gradient Array Induced Polarisation (‘GAIP’) survey at Lander West gold target c.50% complete. Survey temporarily paused due to inclement weather conditions affecting access.

Tristan Pottas, Chief Executive Officer of FDR, commented:

‘The December stream sediment programme has delivered a strong outcome and materially advanced our understanding of the REE potential at Selta.

Importantly, we have reduced broad conceptual targets to clearly defined priority zones at both West Nintabrinna and Ingallan. The 2,103 ppm TREE+Y result at West Nintabrinna is particularly encouraging and supports our interpretation of a fertile intrusive system capable of hosting rare-earth mineralisation.

This low-cost programme has significantly improved our targeting efficiency and provides a clear and systematic pathway for the next phase of REE exploration at Selta.’

DECEMBER 2025 STREAM SEDIMENT SAMPLING PROGRAMME

The field programme, completed over one week in December 2025, comprised systematic stream sediment sampling and reconnaissance geological observations across the two priority Li and REE target areas (Figure 1) previously identified from historical data review and announced 19 November 2025:

Selta Project – REE Exploration Update – 07:00:04 19 Nov 2025 – FDR News article | London Stock Exchange

Stream sediment sampling provides an effective regional screening tool by characterising upstream catchment geology and metalliferous signatures. The primary objectives of the programme were to:

  • Validate historical geochemical anomalies;
  • Increase sampling density;
  • Identify discrete anomalous catchments;
  • Refine target areas for follow-up exploration.

Samples were analysed using ALS Globals Lithium borate fusion (ME-MS81) method, this method was selected to maximise the recovery of resistive heavy minerals commonly associated with REE and lithium-caesium-tantalum (‘LCT’) style pegmatite systems. With statistical analysis applied to identify fractionated trends within the collected samples, to allow for the systematic evaluation of the West Nintabrinna and Ingallan target areas.

Figure 1: Location of stream sediment samples from sample locations within the West Nintabrinna and Ingallan target areas.

West Nintabrinna delivered the strongest geochemical results of the programme, with TREE+Y values of up to 2,103 ppm (Figures 2 and 3), representing the highest results recorded in this phase of exploration. In total 21 samples were collected.

Three strongly anomalous samples define a coherent central catchment now referred to as the ‘Tourmaline target area’, draining the core of the outcrop. Geochemical patterns indicate an evolved felsic intrusive signature consistent with fertile magmatic systems capable of hosting REE-bearing pegmatites.

Airborne imagery highlights multiple discrete pale-weathering outcrops within the anomalous zone, which may correspond to small intrusive or pegmatitic bodies contributing to the observed enrichment.

The programme has reduced the effective West Nintabrinna exploration footprint from approximately 75km² to approximately 5km², materially improving targeting precision and cost efficiency for follow-up work.

Figure 3: Image of the sample location WN011, which recorded up to 2,103 ppm TREE+Y values.

INGALLAN STREAM SEDIMENT RESULTS

Results from the 20 stream sediment samples collected at the Ingallan Target Area show that REE enrichment is localised rather than evenly distributed across the mapped granite and metasedimentary rocks.

TREE+Y values of up to 385 ppm were returned within a central zone now defined as the ‘Peake Bore Target’ (Figure 4). Geochemical patterns indicate:

  • Localised granite fractionation;
  • Enrichment in incompatible elements;
  • Heavy mineral assemblages consistent with evolved intrusive phases.

Drainage basin analysis has reduced the effective exploration footprint from approximately 90km² to around 8.5 km², focusing exploration on the Peake Bore target as a high-priority area for potential LCT- and REE-bearing pegmatite mineralisation.

Within the Peake Bore target, a north-northeast-trending pale-weathering outcrop of approximately 1.8 km strike and 10 to 30 metre width has been identified from airborne imagery and field observations. A further c.1 km east-west-trending pale outcrop, along with additional pale-weathering exposures associated with elevated geochemistry, has also been recognised. These features represent key hard-rock targets for follow-up mapping and rock-chip sampling.

Although the area remains largely untested, its proximity to two large granitic intrusions provides a favourable geological setting for the formation of pegmatite-hosted REE mineralisation. The current programme did not evaluate ionic clay REE potential in the western part of Ingallan, which remains untested.

Figure 4: Extent of the Peake Bore Target area, enriched streams and target outcrops on the Ingallan target area.

GEOLOGICAL CONTEXT

The Selta Project lies within the Aileron Province of the Arunta Region in Australia’s Northern Territory, a Proterozoic terrane known for hosting evolved granitic systems associated with tin (Sn), tungsten (W), uranium (U) and rare-metal mineralisation.

Rare-earth elements, commonly reported together with yttrium as TREE+Y due to its similar chemical behaviour and occurrence in the same mineral systems, are typically enriched during the late stages of granite crystallisation. Where this fractionation becomes localised, it can form discrete intrusive or pegmatitic bodies capable of hosting concentrated REE mineralisation.

The stream sediment results at both West Nintabrinna and Ingallan show geochemical signatures consistent with this type of evolved, fractionated system. Importantly, the anomalism is spatially restricted rather than broadly dispersed, suggesting defined source areas rather than background enrichment.

In this regional geological setting, the presence of localised REE enrichment, elevated incompatible element signatures and coherent anomalous catchments is considered encouraging and supports further targeted exploration.

NEXT STEPS

The results of the December programme have refined and prioritised exploration targets at Selta.

The Company intends to:

  • Undertake detailed geological mapping across Peake Bore and the Tourmaline refined target areas;
  • Conduct systematic rock-chip sampling of identified outcrops;
  • Complete additional targeted geochemical work where appropriate;
  • Evaluate high-resolution geophysics to assist in drill target definition;
  • Progress toward potential drilling, subject to results.

REE exploration remains central to the Company’s strategy at Selta, alongside the ongoing geophysical work on the Lander West gold target area.

GAIP SURVEY UPDATE

The GAIP survey at the Lander West gold target commenced in early January 2026 and is designed to complement the previously completed high-resolution aeromagnetic and radiometric surveys. The programme aims to enhance the Company’s understanding of subsurface geology and structural architecture across the target area, supporting the refinement of potential drill targets.

Adverse weather conditions currently affecting Central Australia have resulted in a temporary pause to field operations. The survey is approximately 50% complete will resume once conditions permit.

Chief Executive Officer Tristan Pottas is expected to visit site in early March, and the Company will provide a further update in due course.

ABOUT FIRST DEVELOPMENT RESOURCES

First Development Resources’ assets comprise eight granted tenements covering a total area of 2,314.4km2. Five of the tenements, comprising three prospective copper-gold projects, are located in Western Australia (WA) while the remaining three tenements, comprising a rare-earth element (REE), uranium, lithium and gold project, are located in the Australian’s Northern Territory. All tenements are wholly owned by FDR. The assets are a mixture of drill ready and earlier stage exploration.

The WA Projects include the Company’s Wallal Project as well as Ripon Hills and Braeside West Projects situated in the Paterson Province, which is widely regarded as one of the most productive regions in Australia for the discovery of world-class gold-copper deposits, and which is home to several world-class mines and more recent discoveries.

The Selta Project in the Northern Territory is located in an area considered highly prospective for uranium and rare-earth element mineralisation along with base and precious metal mineralisation. Numerous companies are actively exploring within the region.

Beyond the existing portfolio, FDR is actively looking to expand its portfolio through the acquisition of early-stage exploration projects in Australia.

First Class Metals PLC Background

First Class Metals listed on the LSE in July 2022 and is focused on metals exploration in Ontario, Canada which has a robust and thriving junior mineral exploration sector. In particular, the Hemlo ‘camp’ near Marathon, Ontario is a proven world class address for gold exploration, featuring the Hemlo gold deposit operated by Barrick Mining (>23M oz gold produced), with the past producing Geco and Winston Lake base metal deposits also situated in the region.

FCM currently holds 100% ownership of seven claim blocks covering over 250km² in northwest Ontario. A further three blocks are under option and cover an additional 30km2.FCM is focussed on exploring for gold but has base metals and critical metals mineralisation. FCM is maintaining a joint venture with GT Resources on the West Pickle Lake Property a drill-proven ultra-high-grade Ni-Cu project.

The flagship properties, North Hemlo and Sunbeam, are gold focussed. North Hemlo has a significant discovery in the Dead Otter trend which is a discontinuous 3.5km gold anomalous trend with a 19.6g/t Au peak grab sample. This sampling being the highest known assay from a grab sample ever recorded on the North Limb of Hemlo.

In October 2022 FCM completed the option to purchase the historical high-grade past-producing Sunbeam gold mine near Atikokan, Ontario, ~15 km southeast of Agnico Eagle’s Hammond Reef gold deposit (3.3 Moz of open pit probable gold reserves).

FCM acquired the Zigzag Project near Armstrong, Ontario in March 2023. The property features Li-Ta-bearing pegmatites in the same belt as Green Technology Metals’ Seymour Lake Project, which contains a Mineral Resource estimate of 9.9 Mt @ 1.04% Li2O. Zigzag was successfully drilled prior to Christmas 2023 and results have now been released.

The Kerrs Gold property, acquired under option by First Class Metals in April 2024, is located in northeastern Ontario within the Abitibi Greenstone Belt, one of the world’s most prolific gold-producing regions. The project holds a historical inferred resource of approximately 386,000 ounces of gold, underscoring its potential as a meaningful addition to FCM’s expanding gold portfolio. Kerrs Gold complements the Company’s exploration strategy and provides exposure to a well-established mining district. FCM is currently reviewing plans to advance the project and further unlock its value.

The significant potential of the properties for precious, base and battery metals relates to ‘nearology’, since all properties lie in the same districts as known deposits (Hemlo, Hammond Reef, Seymour Lake), and either contain known showings, geochemical or geophysical anomalies, or favourable structures along strike from known showings (e.g. the Esa project, with an inferred Hemlo-style shear along strike from known gold occurrences).

Table 1: Summary of drill holes R-0016 to R-0025, highlighting the oxide intercepts. Logging of R-0024 & -0025 is in progress. See Figure 1 below which depicts the oxide mineralization in a longitudinal section looking SW showcasing holes R-0016, -0018, -0019, -0020 and -0022.

Figure 1

Figure 1: Longitudinal section of drill holes R-0016, -0018, -0019, -0020 and -0022 highlighting about 700 m strike of semi-massive oxides and rhythmic layering with the 3D Magnetic Inversion of the 2025 Trapper Zone ground magnetic survey.

The oxide zones in holes R-0016, -0018, -0019, -0020 and -0022 shown in the longitudinal section ‘CC’ (Figure 1 above) highlights about 700 m strike of continuous semi-massive and rhythmic oxide layering.

Early observations indicate the overall average thickness of the oxide horizons in these drill holes have significantly increased to about 100 m thick in addition to a notable increase in semi-massive oxides compared to previous holes. Current logging data indicate that R-0023 (30.58 m), R-0024 (more than 17.18 m; based on quick logs), and R-0026 (up to 13 m; based on quick logs) have thicker semi-massive oxide zones than R-0015 (4.52m). The attitude of the oxide horizons is consistent from all logged holes, striking SE and dipping west.

Notable intercepts (see Table 1 above) include 111.67 m of oxide in R-0018 (including 65.04 m semi-massive), 107.05 m in R-0023 (including 76.44 m rhythmic layering) 91.26 m in R-0022 (with 59.68 m rhythmic layering) 90.08 m in R-0017 (including 87.08 m semi-massive), 87.2 m in R-0020 (with 58.7 m rhythmic layering), 66.45 m of oxides in R-0019, and 58 m in R-0016. R-0024 and -0025 are currently being logged and are expected to be reported shortly.

These holes continue to demonstrate extensive rhythmic oxide layering and semi-massive mineralization, hallmarks of the high-grade oxide sequences observed across the project. The drill rig has continued along the southwestern oxide anomaly in Trapper South and is active on drill hole R-0026.

Michael Garagan, CGO & Director of Saga Metals, commented: ‘Drilling continues to advance at an outstanding pace, with ten holes now completed totaling over 2,000 meters and oxide mineralization confirmed in every logged interval. The southeastern anomaly at Trapper South is delivering increasingly thick zones—quick logs suggest averages approaching 100 m in the deeper holes R-0023 through R-0026—with notably higher proportions of semi-massive oxide compared to earlier intercepts. This growing consistency in thickness, continuity, and semi-massive character across about 700 m strike reinforces our strong confidence in the scale and quality of the oxide horizons here. Having wrapped up the southeastern targets with R-0022, we’re now focused on the southwestern anomaly, systematically building the dataset needed for our maiden Mineral Resource Estimate while unlocking the full potential of Trapper South.’

With sampling of drill holes R-0018, -0019 and -0020 completed, a total of 350 samples have been prepared and will be shipped to Impact Global Solutions (IGS) Laboratory in Montreal, Quebec at the end of the week. IGS received the 209 samples from R-0016 and -0017 on February 14, 2026, and have confirmed assays are expected within about 1 week. Teams are actively logging and sampling all completed holes, with shipment of additional samples to continue at a pace of approximately every couple of weeks. Assay results from these holes are pending and will be released as they become available. The Company remains on track with its systematic MRE drill program across the Trapper Zone.

Randy’s Pit Extended 25 Metres to the Northwest with 20.6 Metres At 0.64 g/t Gold and 50 Metres to the Southeast with 6.58 g/t Gold over 4 Metres

Sranan Gold Corp. (CSE: SRAN,OTC:SRANF) (OTCQB: SRANF) (FSE: P84) (Tradegate: P84) (‘Sranan’ or the ‘Company’) announces assay results from its ongoing 2026 diamond drilling program currently focused on the Randy’s Pit target. These results continue to extend Randy’s Pit gold mineralization with significant near-surface assay results returned (Table 1). Randy’s Pit lies along the +4.5-kilometre Poeketi Shear Zone (‘PSZ’) which represents one shear zone on Sranan’s 29,000-hectare Tapanahony Gold Project.

Drill hole 26RADD-023 encountered 30 metres (‘m’) of 0.67 grams per tonne gold (‘g/t Au’) starting at 99 m downhole and including a one metre interval assaying 12.53 g/t Au from 106 m. The hole was designed to test the up-dip extension of the significant mineralization intersected at depth in holes 25RADD-013 and 25RADD-004, successfully assessing the vertical continuity within the established PSZ (Figure 2). In drill hole 26RADD-021, an interval of 4 metres averaged 6.58 g/t Au, including one metre grading 21.8 g/t Au. Hole 26RADD-022 contained a 20.6 m interval of 0.64 g/t Au starting from surface. Drill hole 26RADD-020 tested the structural and mineralized gap between the northern and southern portions of the Randy’s Pit target. The mineralization intersected in this hole correlates well with mineralization encountered in the southernmost drill holes, supporting structural continuity across the target area.

*Intervals are composited at a 0.3 g/t Au cut-off with internal dilution up to 10 m tolerated. Widths shown are downhole intervals and may not represent true widths. True widths are unknown.

The PSZ, which hosts the known gold mineralization at Randy’s Pit, is a mylonitic shear zone cutting folded and strained basalt​. At Randy’s Pit, the PSZ is an oblique dextral reverse shear zone​ with the main higher-grade mineralization plunging northwest along the shear fabric​. PSZ shows progressive strain with pre and post shear extensional vein sets​ and visible gold often seen on shear planes in the core.

Dr. Dennis J. LaPoint, Executive Vice President of Exploration and Business Development, notes that the current drilling is progressing well with positive drill results and efficient drilling. ‘We are expanding the Randy’s Pit target to the north with trenching and drilling and the PSZ continues to be a well mineralized gold system with multiple ore shoots, high grades, favorable widths at shallow depths and frequent visible gold seen in core. Further drilling will extend to depth and to the south.’

Samples were prepared and assayed by Filab in Paramaribo, Suriname. All samples >2 g/t were re-assayed with 50 gm re-assay and gravimetric assay. Standard QA/QC procedures were followed and showed a satisfactory level of reproducibility. The Company notes that the drill intercepts may not represent true underlying mineralization as core sample intervals are used. Core logging and photography and sampling are completed under industry standard QA/QC protocols (Oreas certified reference materials, assayed coarse blanks, duplicates of core).

Palisades Goldcorp Ltd. (TSXV: PALI) (the ‘Company’ or ‘Palisades’) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Made in America Gold Corp. (‘MIAG’), has successfully completed the acquisition of Undercover Gold Inc. (‘Undercover’), for the South Cortez and South Tonkin properties. Undercover was founded by NewQuest Capital Inc. (‘NewQuest’) which is led by an industry-recognized exploration team that has structured numerous earn-in joint venture deals with major mining companies across a global portfolio of exploration projects. Property details for MIAG’s ten district-scale projects can be found on the new company website, madeinamericagold.com.

The newly acquired properties target classic Carlin-type gold mineralization within the Lower Plate of the Robert’s Mountain thrust, a geological setting synonymous with Nevada’s largest discoveries. While the Cortez district has a long history of production, the South Cortez and South Tonkin blocks remain remarkably under-explored, particularly at depth. Existing technical data, including seismic and aeromagnetic surveys, and historical drilling, indicates that favorable lower-plate host rock stratigraphy resides at accessible depths of less than 400 meters. MIAG is now positioned to leverage an extensive database to test high-priority targets that have seen limited exploration compared to neighboring major-operated land packages.

Justin Daley, CEO of MIAG, stated: ‘The closing of the South Cortez and South Tonkin acquisition marks a transformative milestone for MIAG. By integrating these projects into our portfolio, we are easily the biggest junior company landholder in Nevada, controlling roughly 800 km² of the state’s most productive and prospective gold trends. These projects don’t just add acreage, they represent newly consolidated claim groups just six kilometers south of the Tier 1 Goldrush and Fourmile deposits. With favorable lower-plate geology confirmed at shallow depths and a wealth of historic data already in hand, we are positioned to unlock value in part of a district that has already proven to host 10-million-ounce-plus deposits. Our focus now shifts to integrating data, advancing our own exploration programs, and delineating high-priority targets that have remained under-explored for far too long.’

South Cortez and South Tonkin Projects

MIAG’s acquisition of the South Cortez and South Tonkin mineral properties expands its Battle Mountain–Eureka portfolio by approximately 73 km2, further establishing the entity as the biggest junior mineral claim holder in Nevada. These properties are located along trend with world-class deposits including Pipeline, Cortez Hills, and Goldrush, which have collectively produced or contain over 60 million ounces of gold*. MIAG now controls ~800 km², with each project adjacent to major deposits and mines operated by Nevada Gold Mines, SSR Mining, McEwen Mining and I-80 Gold, (see Figure 1).

Transaction Terms

MIAG and Undercover entered into a definitive share purchase agreement pursuant to which MIAG acquired all the outstanding shares of Undercover, subject to customary terms and conditions for a transaction of this nature, including acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange, and other standard closing deliverables set out in the definitive agreement. As consideration, Undercover shareholders received a total of 1,642,710 common share of MIAG, representing 10% equity interest in MIAG upon closing. The transaction closed on February 18, 2026.

All existing royalties and option agreements related to the South Cortez and South Tonkin properties remained in place. In addition, certain claims within the South Cortez and South Tonkin claim blocks that are 100% owned by Undercover are subject to a 1.75% net smelter royalty (‘NSR‘) retained by NewQuest.

Immediately before the transaction closing, Palisades put in place and retained a 1.75% NSR on all 100% owned MIAG claims and projects (excluding South Cortez and South Tonkin) by forming a new subsidiary to hold such NSR interests for the sole benefit of Palisades shareholders. Additionally, the 3.0% NSR on Nevada King Gold Corp.’s Atlanta Gold Mine Project previously held by Palisades in the MIAG entity was transferred to the newly formed subsidiary for the sole benefit of Palisades shareholders.
