WEST VANCOUVER, BC — January 15, 2026 — Leads & Copy — Drilling has resumed on Bitterroot Resources Ltd.’s 100%-owned Nighthawk Gold/Silver Project in Nevada. The project is located on BLM-managed Federal land, approximately 25 miles west of the historic Tonopah gold/silver district in the Walker Lane Belt.
The drilling program will test up to five targets for structurally-controlled epithermal gold/silver mineralization, according to the company. Previously-identified targets were refined during a pause in drilling using ambient/active seismic geophysical surveys and proprietary processing software. The seismic surveys were designed to improve target resolution.
The Nighthawk Project is contiguous with A2 Gold’s Castle Project, which includes the past-producing open pit/heap-leach Boss Mine and the undeveloped, near-surface Castle, Berg and Black Rock gold deposits.
Bitterroot Resources Ltd., through its US subsidiary Trans Superior Resources, Inc., owns a 100%, royalty-free interest in the 219-claim Nighthawk Gold/Silver Project near Tonopah, NV. Trans Superior also owns a 51% interest in the LM Nickel/Copper Project in the Roland area of the Baraga Basin in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.
The Baraga Basin hosts Talon Metals Corp.’s Eagle Mine, plus the Boulderdash and Roland prospects, which are being explored by Talon. Bitterroot’s LM and Talon’s Roland prospects are parts of the same nickel/copper-mineralized conduit system. More drilling is planned at LM, subject to financing. Bitterroot also owns 5.9% of Perseverance Metals Inc., a Quebec and Michigan-focused nickel/copper exploration company. Perseverance’s management plans to drill new magmatic nickel/copper targets in the Upper Peninsula in early 2026.
