(CSE: WG, OTCQB: WGLIF, FSE: IM50) ( “Westward” or the “Company” ) []()is pleased to provide results for two reverse-circulation ( “RC” ) drill holes (CF25-03 and CF25-04) and an update on its ongoing 2025 drilling campaign, at its flagship Toiyabe Hills Property in Lander County, Nevada ( “Toiyabe Hills” , or the “Property” ). Originally, Westward set out to test its high-priority Campfire Target Complex ( “Campfire” ) with approximately 5,000 metres (~16,500 feet) of RC drilling (see press release date July 8, 2025, for additional details) . Due to early technical and drilling successes at this framework stage, additional exploration capital was put to work to expand the program, which now includes 7,090 metres of RC drilling across eleven drill holes (see Figure 1 below for a map of completed and in-progress holes at Campfire). Early results now include a new gold zone of 10.7m of 0.94 g Au/t, including 3.1m of 2.50 g Au/t in hole CF25-04 . All samples continue to be sent to Paragon Geochemical Services Inc. ( “Paragon” ) for gold and multi-element analysis. Roundtable video discussion available here: [](https://youtu.be/OCh4KXkjJgQ) The Company’s Phase 1 framework drilling program at Campfire – designed with approximately 350 to 700-metre hole spacings – was intended to characterize large-scale gold system patterns and answer key geological questions by: 1) determining the third-dimension architecture of the favourable lower-plate carbonate rocks; 2) identifying vertically-extensive Carlin-type alteration in lower-plate carbonate rocks (namely decalcification) over a large area; 3) confirming a Carlin-type gold and trace-element signature associated with the hydrothermal system; and 4) confirming the downdip expression of an igneous dike-filled fault corridor within the Campfire Anticline. To date, these key questions are being successfully answered with the Phase 1 framework drilling. Kelly Cluer, Director, noted “As I was scrolling down the CF25-04 assay report, what really caught my attention was a 39-metre zone in the Wenban Formation containing elevated gold, arsenic, antimony and mercury, which also included 3 metres of 2+ g/t gold. This is precisely what we’ve been hoping to see at this early stage: geochemical evidence of a system that can produce both tonnage and grade , and we were rewarded in that regard in only the fourth hole back from the lab. This is a brand-new gold zone at Toiyabe Hills, essentially stumbled into with a wide-spaced drilling array. I’m more excited than ever to see what comes from the entire 2025 Campfire framework drilling campaign, and what targets will emerge as we digest all the downhole data over the winter.” Figure 1: Campfire Target: Completed & In-Progress Drilling [](https://www.thenewswire.com/data/tnw/clients/img/398897e8a7e3e376eff1dae57cc13a8e.png) Click Image To View Full Size Key Drilling Highlights at the Campfire Complex: - The 10.7m of 0.94 g Au/t, including 3.1m of 2.50 g Au/t, in hole CF25-04 is associated with decalcified, quartz and dolomite veined silty limestone of the Wenban Formation. Arsenic, antimony and mercury – elements typically associated with Carlin-type gold systems – are elevated in this gold zone (see Figure 3 below). Additionally, a 132m-thick shear zone containing strong/pervasive decalcification, quartz veining and/or selvages of silicification, discrete zones of oxidation, and elevated sooty sulfides was intersected from approximately 567m to 700m downhole. This structural zone is reminiscent of blind compressio
