West Crimson Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (“West Crimson Lake Gold” or “WRLG” or the “Firm”) (TSXV: WRLG) (OTCQB: WRLGF) is happy to report drill outcomes from its 100% owned Madsen Mine positioned within the Crimson Lake Gold District of Northwestern Ontario, Canada.
Shane Williams, President & CEO, said, “We’re solely simply starting to get the underground drills into the decrease parts of the principle Austin Zone and we’re already being rewarded with very high-grade, broad intercepts of gold mineralization – similar to the high-grade lenses now we have been defining in South Austin. Our crew is the primary to get underground drills and mine crews again into these deeper elements of the orebody since this space was traditionally mined within the 1950’s and early 60’s. As anticipated, there’s important ounce and tonnage potential remaining at depth within the Madsen orebody. We anticipate continued success in decrease Austin because the drills proceed to find and outline extra lenses of high-grade mineralization adjoining to our lively mine improvement.”
The drill outcomes featured on this information launch are targeted on the high-grade Austin Zone , which presently incorporates an Indicated mineral useful resource of 914,200 ounces (“oz”) grading 6.9 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold (“Au”), with an extra Inferred useful resource of 104,900 ouncesgrading 6.5 g/t Au.
These outcomes had been drilled from the 12 Degree within the Madsen Mine at roughly 600 meters (“m”) depth and reveal the potential for discovery of further high-grade lenses of gold mineralization in the principle Austin Zone similar to those who have already been delineated within the South Austin zone throughout 2025 (see press releases dated August 12, 2025 , Might 27, 2025 and February 26, 2025 ). The decrease Austin zone will proceed to be a key focus of drilling for the rest of 2025.
Determine 2 beneath features a lengthy part which summarizes the highest three intercepts within the Austin 12-4860 station from this present press launch, in addition to the highest three highlights introduced in 2025 from infill drilling stations within the new high-grade panel inside the South Austin Zone. It is essential to notice that the brand new intercepts in Austin fall alongside an analogous plunge line as these in South Austin suggesting as much as 600 meters of continuity inside this high-grade panel.

DISCUSSION
Like the opposite mineralized domains that comprise the Madsen Mine, the Austin buildings are hosted inside broad, kilometer-scale planar alteration and deformation corridors which have been repeatedly reactivated throughout gold mineralization and subsequent deformation and metamorphism.
On the deposit scale the Austin, South Austin, North Austin, and McVeigh Zones are domestically folded and structurally dismembered by transposition and rotation into the penetrative S2 Foliation. Along with this intense deformation overprint, the mineralized veins and alteration have been subjected to the comparatively excessive temperatures of amphibolite facies metamorphism, which led to intensive recrystallization and progress of the skarn-like alternative mineral assemblage of diopside-amphibole-quartz-biotite.
All important gold mineralization on the mine property is demonstrably early relative to essentially the most important, penetrative deformation (D2) and metamorphic occasions. The North Austin Zone shows ‘mine-style’ alteration and mineralization and consists of a number of mineralized domains outlined over a strike size of 0.5km. Mineralization stays open at depth and alongside strike to the northeast.
In drill core, or at underground face exposures, gold-bearing zones on the Madsen Mine are finest recognized visually by tremendous (sub-millimetre) grains of free gold inside robust alteration and veining. All high-grade intervals typically include seen gold on drill core exteriors, though quite a few examples exist of high-grade assays the place seen gold was solely recognized inside the inside (reduce floor) of the core samples. Aside from the presence of free gold, pervasive silicification (domestically accompanied by discrete quartz veining) and quartz-carbonate or diopside veining are the perfect indicators {that a} given interval is inside a high-grade zone alongside/inside the mineralized construction.
The present underground drilling program on the Madsen Mine is concentrated on additional definition of near-term mining stock, in addition to progress of the present mineral useful resource. Drilling has been targeted on the extra steady and higher-grade parts of the Austin, South Austin, North Austin and McVeigh Zones. It will proceed to be the technique via 2025.

QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL
Drilling accomplished underground on the Madsen Mine consists of BQ-sized diamond drill core for definition drill applications and oriented NQ-sized diamond drill core for exploration targeted drilling. All drill holes are systematically logged, photographed, and sampled by a skilled geologist on the Madsen Mine core processing facility. Minimal allowable pattern size is 0.5m. Most allowable pattern size is 1.5m. Management samples (licensed requirements and uncertified blanks), alongside duplicates, are inserted at a goal 5% insertion charge. Outcomes are assessed for accuracy, precision, and contamination on an ongoing foundation. The BQ-sized drill core is entire core sampled. The NQ-sized drill core is then reduce lengthwise using a diamond blade core noticed alongside a line pre-selected by the geologist. To scale back sampling bias, the identical aspect of drill core is sampled persistently using the orientation line as reference. For these samples containing seen gold (“VG”), a skilled geologist supervises the reducing/bagging of these samples, and ensures the core noticed blade is ‘cleaned’ with a dressing stone following the VG pattern interval. Bagged samples are then sealed with zip ties and transported by Madsen Mine personnel on to SGS Pure Useful resource’s Facility in Crimson Lake, Ontario for assay.
Samples are then prepped by SGS, which consists of drying at 105°C and crushing to 75% passing 2mm. A riffle splitter is then utilized to supply a 500g course reject for archive. The rest of the pattern is then pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns from which 50g is analyzed by fireplace assay and an atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) end (SGS Code GO-FAA50V10). Samples returning gold values > 100 g/t Au are reanalyzed by fireplace assay with a gravimetric end on a 50g pattern (SGS Code GO_FAG50V). Samples with seen gold are additionally analyzed through metallic display evaluation (SGS code: GO_FAS50M). For multi-element evaluation, samples are despatched to SGS’s facility in Burnaby, British Columbia and analyzed through four-acid digest with an atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) end for 33-element evaluation on 0.25g pattern pulps (SGS code: GE_ICP40Q12). SGS Pure Assets analytical laboratories operates below a High quality Administration System that complies with ISO/IEC 17025.
The Madsen Mine deposit presently hosts a Nationwide Instrument 43-101 – Requirements of Disclosure for Mineral Initiatives (“NI 43-101”) Indicated useful resource of 1.65 million ounces (“Moz”) of gold grading 7.4 g/t Au inside 6.9 Mt, and an Inferred useful resource of 0.37 Moz of gold grading 6.3 g/t Au inside 1.8 Mt. Mineral assets are estimated at a cut-off grade of three.38 g/t Au and a gold value of US$1,800/oz. Mineral assets as said are inclusive of mineral reserves. Mineral assets that aren’t mineral reserves do not need demonstrated financial viability. The Madsen Mine additionally incorporates Possible reserves of 478 thousand ounces (“koz”) of gold grading 8.16 g/t Au inside 1.87 Mt. Mineral reserve estimates are based mostly on a gold value of US$1,680/oz. Please seek advice from the technical report entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report and Prefeasibility Examine for the Madsen Mine, Ontario, Canada”, ready by SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. and dated January 7, 2025 (the ” Madsen Report “). The Madsen Useful resource Estimate has an efficient date of December 31, 2021, and excludes depletion of mining exercise in the course of the interval from January 1, 2022, to the mine closure on October 24, 2022, because it has been deemed immaterial and never related for the aim of the Madsen Report.
