Big Tree Carbon Announces Commencement of Lac Seul Forest Community Project Big Tree Carbon Inc. announced that work has been initiated on the Lac Seul pilot carbon offsetting project in conjunction with the Obishikokaang Resources Corporation ("ORC") and project partner Anew Climate LLC ("Anew"). ORC is 100% owned by Lac Seul First Nation ("LSFN") and is the First Nation's forest management company, with responsibility for forest management on Lac Seul I.R. 28 and is a partner to the enhanced sustainable forest licence for the Lac Seul Forest Crown management unit in Northwestern Ontario. Principal staff and Board members of ORC have been developed from within Lac Seul's own Band membership, and the corporation has been in operation since 2012. Upon recommendation from project partner Anew in their recently-updated prefeasibility assessment, the Lac Seul Community Forest Project will pursue project registration through the American Carbon Registry ("ACR") voluntary Improved Forest Management program for Canadian forests. The ACR voluntary program carries a 40-year crediting period, during which the sustainable forestry practices set out in the project design will maintain and sequester carbon throughout the life of the project, with no longer-term obligation such as would be applicable in a compliance-based project. Initial stages of project development include definition of the overall project boundary, and valuation of other ecosystem service benefits associated with the land, coupled with ongoing community and First Nation governance engagement. The prefeasibility assessments provided by project partner Anew contemplate 22,063 hectares of productive forested area on the Lac Seul reserve lands, which does not include the footprint of the First Nation's three communities. The quantum of annual credits generated by this project will be determined through project development activities of all project partners, and will be reported to shareholders once the project is registered with ACR.

Kerry said the new US initiative should be "up and running" within a year. Big Tree is evaluating current projects while working to increase partnerships with First Nations. Both voluntary carbon market and compliance carbon market projects are possible through the American Carbon Registry ("ACR") improved forest management and Verra Canadian forest carbon offset methodologies, respectively. The Federal Government's release of compliance project protocols are expected in the spring of 2023. Lac Seul Pilot Project: The Lac Seul pilot project is currently awaiting an updated offset feasibility study by Anew Climate, LLC ("Anew", previously Blue Source Canada ULC). Kick-off of the project is expected to begin shortly after confirmation from the new Lac Seul Band council recently sworn in after elections Ogoki Forest Project: The Ogoki Forest project also has a pre-feasibility assessment from Anew. Based on this assessment, Big Tree entered into an offset development agreement with Agoke Development LP ("ADLP"), the First Nations forestry corporation which manages the Ogoki Forest management unit. Big Tree has a 25% revenue sharing interest for up to 10 years on this project. This project is awaiting the release of carbon offset protocols for crown land, expected to be released in the spring of 2023 along with the awarding of an engineering contract to register and create the carbon offsets.

AurCrest Gold Inc. Provides Update on Ranger Lake Gold Property Exploration Program AurCrest Gold Inc. provided an update on the ongoing exploration program at the company's Ranger Lake Gold Property, Ontario. Diamond drilling for a total of nine holes comprising 1,683 metres (m) was completed in June. In total, eight of the nine drill holes in the Phase 1 program intersected zones of polymetallic sulphide mineralization. Surface prospecting also identified one outcrop, located approximately seventy-five metres ESE from the drill program site that hosted a 15cm-wide quartz-biotite vein containing up to 8% sulphides. Selected core samples are being prepared for scanning electron microprobe analysis (SEMPA) to correlate mineralization and observations with the pending geochemical results. The company is confident that observations from this program will contribute to a better understanding of both the area geology and style of mineralization. Subsequent to the company's previous release, two step-out holes, RAL21-004 and RAL21-004B, were drilled approximately 25m east of overburden-covered, near-surface mineralization identified in RAL21-001, RAL21-001B, RAL21-001C and RAL21-001CC. The two step-outs were drilled at -50° and -45° dip angles in northerly and southeasterly directions, respectively, from a single pad location. RAL21-004 intersected sporadic disseminated polymetallic sulphides and foliation parallel sulphide millimetre-scale sulphide stringers between 136m and 147m. A zone of strongly sheared and folded silica-biotite-calcsilicate-sulphide layers is encountered between 145m and 147m and contains approximately 10% to 15% sulphide.
RAL21-004B intersected intermittent sulphide mineralization between 6m and 23m. A 2.5m zone of approximately 80% sulphide was encountered at 11.5m and is associated with intense silica-biotite flooding. Between 14m and 17m, the rock is less sheared and distinctly preserves a monomictic metabreccia texture composed of angular, foliated metasedimentary lithic fragments flooded with silica, biotite and approximately 5% very fine-grained disseminated sulphides. Soil sampling also was completed recently for Spatiotemporal Geochemical Hydrocarbon analysis and modelling over a high-priority Artificial Intelligence target immediately northwest of the current drill area. A total of 743 samples have been submitted for SGH analysis from a 50m grid pattern contiguous with the company's existing SGH model. Subsequent drill holes currently are being planned for a Phase 2 program in Fall 2021 to continue to test alteration, mineralization and structural interpretations. SGH modelling of the new survey area to the northwest of the current drilling will factor into the drill hole design. The company also has designed an additional soil SGH sampling grid to investigate exploration potential of a geophysically-anomalous region, approximately 3.0km east of the current drill area, and originally identified in historical exploration assessment reports through a ground magnetic and Max-Min horizontal loop electromagnetic (HLEM) survey conducted in 1979/80. The Company acknowledges that the Ranger Lake Gold Property is within a Restricted Fire Zone and may become subject to a provincial Implementation Order restricting access to the sampling area should forest fire conditions in the Red Lake area continue to worsen. The company will commence this soil sampling program immediately. Work will be suspended as required by any applicable Implementation Order. Announcement • Jun 10
AurCrest Gold Inc. Announces Preliminary Observations of Ranger Lake Gold Property Drill Program AurCrest Gold Inc. announced preliminary observations from the ongoing inaugural diamond drilling project at the Company's Ranger Lake Gold Property, Ontario. To date, seven holes have been drilled to test overlapping Artificial Intelligence ("AI"), Spatiotemporal Geochemical Hydrocarbon ("SGH"), and structural geology interpretations in a previously unrecognized and under-explored region located approximately 10 kilometres east of Balmertown, Ontario in the world class Red Lake Mining District. A total of 1,277 metres have been drilled to date, more than double the original project design of 600 metres. Despite fifteen (15) metres of glacial overburden and a lack of outcrop, six (6) of the seven (7) holes have intercepted intervals with polymetallic sulphide mineralization extending from surface to 184 metres downhole. Mineralization appears to be associated with intense biotite- silica-carbonate alteration along an east to west-trending zone encompassing over 225 metres laterally, remains open to the east and west and is unconstrained at depth. Foliation-parallel sulphide stringers and veins, up to 20 centimetres in thickness and containing up to 80% sulphides, occur in broad zones up to seven (7) metres in width along the core orientation and are surrounded by disseminated sulphides and silica-biotite-epidote alteration. AurCrest has submitted samples for gold and multi-element assays and will compile the geochemical results upon receipt. The degree of alteration, consistent intercepts of mineralization and structural interpretation of this zone is encouraging and step-out drill holes currently are designed to further explore the geological potential of the mineralization along strike.
