Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 24, 2026) - Napoleon Resources Inc. (TSXV: NAP) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into contracts with Precision GeoSurveys Inc. ("Precision") and Tripoint Geological Services Ltd. ("Tripoint") to commence the first phase of the exploration program recommended for the Napoleon Gold Property (the "Property"), located approximately 40 kilometres north of Kamloops, British Columbia, in the Kamloops Mining Division. Mobilization is expected to commence in late September 2026.

The program consists of a helicopter-borne magnetic, radiometric and VLF-EM survey to be flown by Precision over approximately 143 line kilometres at 100 metre line spacing, together with a grid soil geochemical survey to be carried out by Tripoint comprising approximately 450 soil samples and quality assurance and quality control inserts. The program is intended to generate drill targets in an area where outcrop exposure is limited by glacial cover.

"We are excited to commence the first phase of exploration on the Napoleon Gold Property," commented Gianluca Ciampi, CEO of Napoleon Resources. "The commencement of the first phase of exploration is an important step for the company and we look forward to updating shareholders as the program progresses."

Exploration in the Area

The Property lies 1.2 kilometres from the Bonaparte Developed Prospect (MINFILE 092P 050) where auriferous quartz veins hosted principally within a quartz diorite intrusion have been the subject of extensive historical exploration. Decade Resources Ltd. ("Decade") holds an option to acquire an 80% interest in the mineral claims on which the Bonaparte Developed Prospect is situated. As described in the Company's technical report, work at the Bonaparte between 1985 and 1989 comprised 1,683 metres of trenching and 4,427.8 metres of diamond drilling in 64 holes, and a 3,700 tonne bulk sample collected in 1994 yielded 3,160 ounces of gold. By the end of 2011, 134 diamond drill holes totalling 8,019.8 metres, 66 trenches and 12 reverse circulation holes had been completed, identifying nine quartz veins within an area measuring approximately 300 metres by 350 metres. A further 15 diamond drill holes totalling 1,174.2 metres were completed between 2015 and 2018. Both the Property and the Bonaparte lie within the same erosional window through the overlying Miocene plateau basalts.

Decade reported in a news release dated August 31, 2026 that the first hole of its Phase I drill program at the Bonaparte property intersected porphyry-style copper mineralization at depth.
