Forge Resources drills 45.01 g/t gold over 3.15 metres at Payoff Zone, Alotta Project, Yukon

Forge Resources Corp. [CSE: FRG; OTCQB: FRGGF; FSE: 5YZ] reported additional gold assay results from the Phase 2 diamond drill program, confirming the presence of significant gold mineralization at its Alotta Project, Yukon Territory, intercepting 45.01 g/t gold over a core length of 3.15 metres.

Partial gold analysis of the first batch has been reported with entire rushed batch now completed for gold analysis only; multi-element analysis results remain pending. Assay highlights of diamond drill hole ALT-25-012 pertaining to this news release are found in Table 2. Due to prolonged assay laboratory delays, the Company requested rush analysis of the sample batch containing potentially high-grade gold from drill hole ALT-25-012.

Highlights: Gold analysis from selected rushed core samples from diamond drill hole ALT-25-012, at the Payoff Zone, have returned 45.01 g/t gold over a core length of 3.15 metres starting at 286.0 metres. The new composited interval is including the 105 g/t gold over a core length of 1.25 metres starting at 286.0 metres reported on November 17, 2025.

Typical gold enriched porphyry mineralization occurring around new composite area, most ranging between 0.03 and 1.0 grams/tonne gold from limited assay results received to date.

Mineralization at Alotta remains open in all directions with drilling to date confirming a mineralized footprint of approximately 4km by 1km. All drill holes have encountered porphyry style, gold enriched, porphyry mineralization.

Alotta is a gold enriched porphyry system hosting both semi-massive polymetallic sulphide veins and quartz veins overprinting the porphyry mineralization. The first 80 metres of ALT-25-012 contains many of these veins with assay results still pending. To date, these veins have significantly contributed to the overall gold grade.

All drill core is orientated, providing critical information on both the sulphide and quartz vein potential orientations. Completion of the assay results and compilation of the structural data will be important in determining future drilling orientations in order to better test these critical vein systems within the porphyry system.

PJ Murphy, CEO of Forge Resources, stated: “With the first batch of gold assay results completed we continue to see exceptional high-grade gold results from hole ALT-25-012, which returned 45.01 g/t gold over a core length of 3.15 metres, including 58.93 g/t gold over a core length of 2.4 metres, including 105 g/t gold over a core length of 1.25 metres.

“We are extremely excited by these impressive results as these assays reinforce the strong high-grade gold potential at Alotta and complements the broader, bulk-tonnage style mineralization at the Payoff Zone. We look forward to receiving the multi-element results from the rushed samples of hole ALT-25-012, along with the remaining assays from our Phase 2 drilling program.“

A total of 1262.75 metres of drilling in four drill holes were completed by the company during the Phase 2 drill program in 2025.

The Alotta property consists of 230 mineral claims that covers approximately 4,723 hectares in a similar geological setting to Western Copper and Gold’s Casino deposit, that is located 50 km to the north of the Alotta Project. The Casino deposit is one of the largest undeveloped gold-copper porphyry projects in the world.

Forge Resources is focused on exploring and advancing the Alotta project, a prospective porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum project consisting of 230 mineral claims that cover 4,723 hectares, located 50 km south-east of the Casino porphyry deposit in the unglaciated portion of the Dawson Range porphyry/epithermal belt in the Yukon Territory, Canada.

In addition, the company holds an 80% interest in Aion Mining Corp., a company that is developing the fully permitted La Estrella coal project in Santander, Colombia. The project contains eight known seams of metallurgical and thermal coal.
