Radisson Reflects on a Successful 2025 and Provides 2026 Outlook

12:30 Uhr  |  Newsfile

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(Newsfile Corp. - December 30, 2025) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQX: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Company") achieved significant progress during 2025 in the exploration and development of its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Québec. The 2026 work program will build upon this success, with the largest ever drill program at O'Brien funded from the Company's largest ever treasury.

2025 Milestones

  • 957 days of continuous site operations without a lost time incident;

  • Completion of approximately 35,000 metres of drilling with deep step-out holes and directional wedges delineating significant high-grade gold mineralization over a broad area beneath the historic O'Brien gold mine and existing mineral resources (Figure 1);

  • Of the 68 step-out holes and wedges completed, assayed and reported, 56 intersected new gold mineralization with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's Mineral Resource Estimate (Table 1), an impressive 82% success rate;

  • A comprehensive metallurgical study demonstrating recoveries of between 86% and 96% based on flow sheet options developed in a milling assessment completed on the nearby Doyon mill under the auspices of a Memorandum of Understanding with IAMGOLD Inc1;

  • A "snap-shot" Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") demonstrating a high-value, low-cost project based on the current mineral resources and use of off-site facilities for processing and tailings management, maximising value and minimising environmental impact;

  • Completion of C$37 million in equity financings to long-term investors. Radisson expects to end 2025 with a treasury (cash and cash equivalents) of approximately C$32 million (unaudited), fully funding of the Company's 2026 work programs.

Matt Manson, President and CEO: "Starting in late 2024, we elected to pursue a more aggressive exploration strategy at O'Brien based on the thesis that a significantly larger mineral resource might exist at the Project should its mineralizing system, previously delineated only at shallower levels, continue to depth. Over the last twelve months we have seen consistent success with large step-out drill holes beneath both the existing mineral resources and the historic mine. At the start of this program we drilled OB-24-337, the first ever hole below the final stope of the old mine since mining ended in 1957. This returned 31.24 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") over 8.0 metres (including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre) at 1,500 metres vertical depth. From this single pilot hole, operating continuously for more than 12 months, we have now completed 15 wedges and published results for 11, delineating a system of high-grade mineralization in multiple veins over a broad area. This achievement has delivered outstanding value to the Company and owes much to the skill of the Radisson exploration team and our drill contractor Akakodjici / RJLL, a joint venture between RJLL Drilling of Rouyn-Noranda, Québec and Longpoint First Nation. Overall, the 82% success rate of intersecting mineralization with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's mineral resources is a significant achievement for a step-out drill program designed to target open areas with no previous drilling. Currently, an additional 18 drill holes from the 2025 program are "in-progress" of logging, sample preparation or assaying, and awaiting publication."

Matt Manson continued: "The PEA released in 2025 demonstrated the attributes of a high value project with a low capex and modest footprint based on the use of existing offsite facilities for processing, of which there are several in the Abitibi region. In 2026, we will continue to refine the Project's development path, with on-going engineering studies, environmental baseline work, community dialog, and engagement with potential processing partners; however, the 2025 PEA was only a "snap-shot" of a project that is continuing to grow. The focus of our work in 2026 and into 2027 will be the ongoing step-out drill program, which has now been expanded to 140,000 metres with eight rigs, fully funded from our strong treasury."

2026 Work Program

The following 2026 work program has been approved by the Company's Board of Directors:

  • 72,500 metres of drilling focussed on new areas of potential gold mineralization. The objective of the program will be step-outs to increase the quantity of mineral resources rather than in-filling to upgrade the classification of an existing mineral resource. With a forecast of 35,000 metres of step-out drilling completed in 2025, a further 32,500 metres will be scheduled for 2027 to complete the 140,000-metre program. All-in drill costs are budgeted at C21 million, or approximately C$290 per metre depending on the average depth of drilling;

  • Up to eight rigs will be deployed with pilot holes and directional wedges. Targets will include the extension of mineralization up to 2 kilometres vertical depth at O'Brien Mine East and beneath resource Trend #s 1 and 2 (see Figure 1). The apparent "gap" area between Trends 1 and 2, attributed primarily to lack of drill density versus lack of mineralization, will be tested, as well as the Thompson-Cadillac area west of the O'Brien mine, which will be drilled for the first time since 2021. Drilling is also planned in the gap area between O'Brien Mine West and East, and below Trends #3 and #4. Program objectives will be reassessed progressively based on results obtained;

  • Progressive updates to the Project's Mineral Resource Estimate as the step-out drill program proceeds;

  • Commencement of assaying by PhotonAssay method with 50-gram fire assay verification replacing Radisson's current two-stage fire assay/screen metallic procedure, designed to better capture whole-rock, coarse gold content and improve assay turnaround time;

  • A program of mine plan optimization and design sensitivity analysis to be undertaken in conjunction with the ongoing drilling and development of the Project's geological and mineral resource models. This work will be conducted by Evomine and will include an assessment of the viability of incorporating existing O'Brien mine infrastructure, such as its 1,000-metre shaft, into a future mine development plan;

  • Ongoing grassroots exploration on Radisson's New Alger property with prospecting and surface geochemistry, and an assessment of the prospectivity of gold mineralization in the Cadillac Sediments located north of the Larder Lake-Cadillac Break and the O'Brien Mine;

  • A comprehensive environmental baseline study focussed on the Project site's biophysical attributes such as water, flora and fauna, to complement existing baseline data on air quality, vibration and noise;

  • Ongoing engagement and dialog focussed on deepening the Company's relationships with communities located within the area of expected economic and social influence of the Project, including the township of Cadillac and the First Nations communities of Pikogan FN (Abitibiwinni) and Long Point FN (Anishinabeg).

12-Month Record of Drill Results at the O'Brien Gold Project

Since the end of 2024, Radisson has published results from 68 drill holes completed as part of the ongoing step-out drill program (Table 1). These are drill holes targeting new areas of mineralization, and as such are distinguished from "in-fill" type drill holes which seek to upgrade areas of known mineralization. Most of these step-out drill holes have intersected gold mineralization in O'Brien's characteristic quartz-sulphide-gold veins within alteration zones, and 56 have intercepts averaging greater than 3 g/t Au (expressed as core length, with minimum sample widths of typically 1.0 to 1.5 metres). Such intercepts are consistent in grade and thickness with the Project's current Mineral Resource Estimate, and Radisson considers them to have the potential to contribute meaningfully to future mineral resources. This is an 82% success rate, which reflects the scope of the O'Brien mineralizing system. At time of writing, an additional 18 drill holes from the 2025 program are "in-progress" of logging, sample preparation or assaying, and awaiting publication.
