Radisson Mining Sources Inc. (TSX-V: RDS, OTCQB: RMRDF)(“Radisson” or the “Company”) is happy to supply a 2025 outlook and exploration & growth plan for the Firm’s 100%-owned O’Brien Gold Undertaking (“O’Brien” or the “Undertaking”) situated within the Abitibi area of Québec.
Matt Manson, President and CEO, commented: “In 2025 we’re planning a complete and totally funded exploration and mission growth program at O’Brien to know the potential scope of the Undertaking, and considerably advance it in direction of growth. This program consists of drilling focussed on the extension of gold mineralization on the Undertaking to depth, constructing on the spectacular deep outcomes achieved on the tail finish of 2024. Our drilling shall be complemented by floor trenching and stripping, and a program to delineate the extension to floor of the well-known O’Brien “Jewelry Field” zone, not too long ago rediscovered by Radisson drilling. In growth work, we count on to shortly conclude the metallurgical research and milling evaluation at the moment ongoing beneath a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with IAMGOLD Company and based mostly on the close by Doyon mill. We ponder commencing a companion Preliminary Financial Evaluation (“PEA”) for O’Brien, based mostly on using the Doyon mill, upon the profitable completion of this preliminary technical work. This yr can even see an elevated concentrate on baseline environmental research at O’Brien, and neighborhood engagement, as a future potential O’Brien mining operation comes into focus. We see O’Brien as a low value, small footprint and excessive margin mining operation with vital exploration upside and developed inside a hub-and-spoke mining and milling association attribute of gold mining within the Abitibi. Our 2025 work plan has been developed with this clear technique in thoughts.”
A complete exploration finances of roughly C$6.8M has been established for 2025, together with all drilling and assay prices, floor stripping and trenching, personnel, allowing prices and website assist. This shall be totally funded from Radisson’s current treasury.
Particulars of the 2025 work program are as follows:
1. 22,000 Metres of Exploration Drilling
Radisson’s 2025 exploration drilling at O’Brien will concentrate on increasing the scope of identified mineralization under the present mineral sources. In December 2024, Radisson launched the outcomes of the deepest gap ever drilled on the Undertaking and the primary gap drilled instantly under the historic O’Brien Mine workings. Sheared, altered and mineralized rocks of the Piché Group, the dominant host rocks for O’Brien gold mineralization, had been intersected at roughly 1,500 metres vertical depth, 500 metres under earlier drilling, and returned 242.0 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”) over 1.0 metre inside a mineralized interval that averaged 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres. In September 2024, Radisson intersected 27.61 g/t Au over 6.0 metres together with 102.0 g/t Au over 1 metre at 1,100 metres vertical depth, 170 metres under earlier drilling (see Determine 1). Radisson believes that these outcomes display the continuation of the O’Brien mineralizing system nicely under the bottom of the March 2023 Mineral Useful resource, which is outlined to a most vertical depth of 900 metres. Roughly 75% of the present mineral useful resource is outlined to a depth of solely 600 metres.
The 2025 exploration program will incorporate wedges and directional drilling from deep pilot holes. An preliminary 22,000 metres have been deliberate, and an growth of this system within the second half of the yr shall be assessed based mostly on the preliminary outcomes achieved.

2. Exploration for the O’Brien Jewelry Field, together with Floor Stripping and Trenching
Along with the deep exploration program, Radisson plans a program of shallower drilling and floor exploration to hint the placement of the well-known O’Brien “Jewelry Field” zone. In December 2024, Radisson introduced the possible rediscovery of the Jewelry Field, an historic mining stope believed to be the supply of extraordinarily high-grade and museum high quality gold samples, with a drill intercept of 643.1 g/t Au over 2.1 metres, together with 1,345.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre. This program will try and hint the Jewelry Field from 200 metres depth, the place it was final mined, to the floor, together with stripping of floor overburden. Delineation of the Jewelry Field zone might supply an especially high-grade mining space to be exploited early within the growth of a future O’Brien mine.
Radisson additionally plans a 1.1 kilometre program of trenching throughout the breadth of the O’Brien property designed to reveal Piche Rocks adjoining to the Cadillac-Larder Lake Break over an approximate strike size of 4 kilometres, extending from west of the historic O’Brien mine to the japanese boundary of the present property. The aim of this trenching program is to determine further areas of exploration potential for future drilling, and to look at instantly the geological setting of O’Brien gold mineralization.
3. Completion of Metallurgical and Milling Evaluation, and PEA
In September 2024, Radisson entered into an MOU with IAMGOLD Company to evaluate the design standards for processing mined materials from O’Brien on the close by Doyon gold mill, a part of IAMGOLD’s Doyon-Westwood mine complicated. The Doyon mill is situated 21 kilometres west of O’Brien instantly accessible alongside Trans-Canada Freeway 117. The work has included metallurgical research, an evaluation of flow-sheet configurations at Doyon and potential mill modifications, and a assessment of future processing and tailings disposal capability at Doyon. The outcomes of this work are anticipated to be concluded and reported shortly. The MOU facilitates the alternate of technical knowledge between Radisson and IAMGOLD Company and is non-binding and non-exclusive. It incorporates no particular phrases round potential industrial preparations between the events, and there’s no certainty that any association between the events will end result from their dealings pursuant to the MOU. Nonetheless, Radisson contemplates additional discussions with IAMGOLD, and a companion O’Brien PEA, upon the profitable completion of this preliminary technical work.
4. Expanded Environmental Baseline Evaluation and Neighborhood Engagement
The 2025 work program will embody an elevated concentrate on environmental baseline knowledge assortment and neighborhood engagement, based mostly on the technique of growing O’Brien as a low-footprint, underground mining operation and not using a stand-alone processing or tailings storage facility, and using current highway and energy infrastructure. Along with the Undertaking’s floor water sampling program, which has been ongoing for a number of years, Radisson has retained the companies of BBA Inc. to begin a baseline monitoring program for noise, vibration and ambient air high quality on the O’Brien website.
Radisson can even enhance its concentrate on neighborhood engagement and communication, based mostly on the municipalities instantly adjoining to the Undertaking and First Nations teams inside the Abitibi-Témiscamingue area.
