*Data to 31 October 2023 where available.

The Red Lake District has produced over 30 million ounces of gold. WRLG’s 47 Km2 land package is 13 X bigger than NYC’s Central Park.

At its peak, the asset was valued at over a billion dollars, 7X the current market cap of WRLG. In the spring of 2023, WRLG acquired the asset for $6.5 million cash, 28.5 million shares, while granting the seller a 1% Net Smelter Royalty.

“I've never seen an acquisition this attractive,” stated Frank Giustra in this WRLG video. “The quality of the infrastructure here is absolutely perfect. It's first class. It's brand new. You couldn't create this today with less than $700 million. It would take you years, probably a decade. It's like buying a new car you could walk into and you have that new car smell.”

The company’s flagship asset - The Madsen Gold Mine – is debt free, fully permitted, with a brand-new 800+ tonne per day mill, a tailings and water treatment facility. [1]

The South Austin Zone currently contains an Indicated mineral resource of 474,600 ounces, grading 8.7 grams per tonne gold, with an additional Inferred resource of 31,800 oz grading 8.7 g/t Au.

The December 5, 2023 results demonstrate continuity of the South Austin Zone and highlight the resource growth potential that exists within this area.

On November 21, 2023, WRLG reported drill results from the North Austin Zone which included an intercept of 10.28m @ 27.15 g/t gold.

“The impressive results reported thus far from South Austin and North Austin represent growth to the existing Madsen resource inventory and underscore the high-grade expansion potential that still exists at the Madsen deposit,” stated Shane Williams, President & CEO or WRLG. “We fully intend to continue unlocking this value as drilling continues.”

“These outstanding drill results demonstrate the high-grade nature and continuity of the South Austin Zone,” Will Robinson, V.P. of Exploration for WRLG told Guy Bennett, the CEO of Global Stocks News. “Our team believes that further exploration and expansion potential exists down-plunge from the area highlighted in this update, which could add additional high-grade, near-mine ounces to the South Austin resource.”

WRLG CEO Shane Williams has designed, built and operated mines (open pit and underground) for Eldorado Gold and Rio Tinto. He has a stellar track record of moving mineral assets into production.

Major investors in the current project include Sprott Resource (23.4%), Frank Giustra (11.8%) and VanEck Gold Fund (6.5%).

“It's all about execution in this business,” stated Giustra, “The key lesson I've learned from building mining companies over the last several decades is to back a great management team with a great asset, invest early and be patient.”

“The current underground drilling program at the Madsen Mine is focused on further definition of near-term mining inventory,” confirms WRLG, “as well as growth of the current mineral resource.”
