CORRECTION FROM SOURCE: KTRI Reports on Drill Results From the Two Times Fred Property
The following is a correction to KTRI's April 30, 2025 release to include updated linked Map images.
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / May 1, 2025 / Kootenay Resources Inc. (TSXV:KTRI) (the "Company" or "KTRI") reports on drill assays from review of $4.0 million dollars of work conducted on Two Times Fred, Nechako Plateau Region, British Columbia, as disclosed in the news release of March 27, 2025.
Dale Brittliffe P.Geo., VP of Exploration says "This epithermal vein system has excellent prospects for a significant gold discovery. Drilling to date has clearly defined a range of mineralized targets to follow up. The vein system is large, measuring at least 3.5 km x 2km. All veins encountered are anomalous in gold and silver and the prevalence of outcropping sinter rock (hot springs related silica) indicates the mineralized system is almost entirely preserved from erosion. The last hole, 2XF-22-0041, was the best to date with no other holes completed within 300m in either direction on the Saki vein"
The continuing review of exploration conducted on the system reveals:

35 of 41 diamond drill holes range from anomalous results to highs of 10.8 gpt gold and 122 gpt silver.
Last Hole was the best hole.
14.95 meters of 1.28 gpt gold and 14.6 gpt silver from 21.1 meters with 3 meters of 2.66 gpt gold and 31.2 gpt silver and 2.85 meters of 2.3 gpt gold and 21.1 gpt silver.
20.6 meters of 1.32 gpt gold and 17.2 gpt silver from 47.7 meters with 2 meters of 6.93 gpt gold and 58.6 gpt silver and 1 meter of 10.8 gpt gold and 88.5 gpt silver.
The project remains lightly drilled over multiple veins in a large area.
Two primary vein trends with one striking north-northeast and the other northeast. All are steep dipping
The two sets make up a classic structural pattern often seen in vein systems possibly indicative of strike slip movement.
Numerous veins occur with five principal veins trends to date
Borrow Pit
Saki
Hidden Hand
Gold Hill
Shinju
The Shinju and Gold Hill are northeast trending veins
Saki, Hidden Hand and Borrow Pit are north-northeast trending veins.
Key features of the principal mineralized veins are summarized below, a table of compiled drill highlights follows. All drill assays quoted are core length, drawn from both Kootenay and Centerra datasets. Data from all drilling programs quoted were subject to industry standard QA-QC protocols.

Other veins or vein trends include "Shochu" vein intercepted in the northernmost reconnaissance hole on the property to date, RC drill hole 2XF-22-RC003. Additional targets or trends are indicated by mineralized rock chip outcrops to the west and 800 meters east of Gold Hill Vein. It is probable further exploration work will reveal more veins.
A tabulation of drilling results from three drilling campaigns since 2015 is shown below. Drill holes 2XF-15-01 to 08 and 2XF-19-01 to 05 represent early tests of surface anomalies conducted by Kootenay Resources in 2015 and 2019. Subsequent drilling, 2XF-21-0014 to 0041 were compiled from database received from Centerra. Exploration work completed by that company is well documented in publicly available BC Assessment report #41144. Data were collected to industry standard QA-QC protocols and are considered representative of the tenor of the veins tested by this work.

The current review of Two Times Fred, including almost 10,000 meters of drilling data indicate that the vein occurrences on the property are located within an area measuring in excess of 3km by 1.5km. Airborne magnetic data show good correlation between interpreted vein structures and drilling intercepts and are expected to assist guiding of subsequent drill testing. KTRI will continue to update on the data review as it prepares plans for the project.
Two Times Fred is the discovery and recognition of an epithermal vein system made over several years. The property was first drilled by Kootenay in 2015 with a small follow up program in 2019. Further drilling conducted by Centerra under earn-in option during 2021-2022 added a total of 28 diamond holes and 6 RC holes for 8,328.5 meters and 965 meters respectively.
Background
Kootenay Resources Inc's stated mission is the discovery a Tier One deposit and as such KTRI focuses on those areas with demonstrated geologic potential for such deposits. The Company is exploring its flagship Moyie Anticline property in southern British Columbia and on its generative program including several promising gold-silver-copper properties in the Nechako plateau of central British Columbia. Kootenay Resources Inc. welcomes partners for exploration projects and currently has one mineral property under option to Centerra Gold (KB) Inc., and three projects under option to fellow junior exploration company Rokmaster Resources Corp.
