    Scottie Resources – First High-grade Gold Assay Results From The 52,000 Metre 2026 Drill Program

    Brad Rourke, Executive Chairman of Scottie Resources Corp. (TSXV: SCOT) (OTCQB: SCTSF) (FSE: SR80), joins me to review the first drill results, at the Blueberry Contact Zone, from the fully-funded 50,000 metre 2026 drill program at the Scottie Gold Mine Project; located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. We also expand on the pathway forward into development of the Project, and eventual production in 2028.   On September 9th, the company released the first assays from its 2026 drill program, including multiple high-grade gold intercepts on its Blueberry and Lemoffe vein zones.   Highlights:   Blueberry Contact drillhole SR26-492 intersected 9.7 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 18.00 metres (m), including 40.4 g/t gold over 2.0 m at the Lemoffe vein zone. The hole also intercepted an additional Lemoffe vein grading 15.9 g/t gold over 2.0 m (Table 1, Figures 1,2). Blueberry Contact drillhole SR26-489 intersected 26.2 g/t gold over 2.45 m at the Lemoffe vein zone (Table 1, Figures 1,3). Blueberry Contact drillhole SR26-490 intersected 14.6 g/t gold over 2.45 m at the Blueberry vein zone (Table 1, Figures 1,4). More than 40,000 m of drilling this season has been completed in 160 holes, with an additional 12,000 to 16,000 m forecasted to be completed within the existing budget due to better-than-expected drilling productivity. Four drill holes are reported in this news release with assays pending, results will be reported throughout the remainder of the year as received. Eight diamond drills are currently turning; seven on the Scottie Gold Mine Project and one on Cambria Project.     Brad highlighted that the 2026 drilling program is focused on three key objectives: upgrading inferred ounces to indicated through infill drilling, expanding known vein zones, and testing major step-outs and new targets. This year’s exploration program is expected to be in the order of 52,000 to 56,000 total metres. We discussed some holes testing expansion targets like Wolf, P-Zone, C&D veins, and Domino.     After all the 2026 data comes in the Company will then update the Resource Estimate and complete the workstreams to announce the Feasibility Study in 2027, with first production anticipated in 2028.     If you have any questions for Brad regarding Scottie Resources, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Scottie Resources at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Scottie Resources     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substack reports:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

    Luca Mining – Q2 Operations and Financials, Ongoing Exploration and Development Work At The Campo Morado and Tahuehueto Mines

    Dan Barnholden, CEO of Luca Mining (TSX.V:LUCA – OTCQX:LUCMF – FSE:TSGA), joins us to review their Q2 2026 operations and financials, ongoing metallurgical studies, and expanded exploration and development work; across both of Luca’s producing assets – the Campo Morado and Tahuehueto mines, located in the prolific Sierra Madre mineralized belt in Mexico.   Q2 2026 Highlights   Strong and consistent quarterly revenue: Revenue increased 47% to $58.4 million compared with $39.7 million in Q2 2025 and remained above the $57.6 million generated in Q1 2026. First-half revenue reached $116.0 million, an increase of 43% over the comparable period of 2025. Q2 revenue included $1.9 million of negative provisional pricing adjustments related to concentrate shipments made in prior periods. Strong profitability continued in Q2: Net earnings were $10.5 million, or $0.04 per share, compared with a net loss of $3.2 million in Q2 2025. Together with the $12.6 million earned in Q1 2026, Luca generated $23.1 million of net earnings in the first six months of 2026, compared with $1.3 million in the first half of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA increased 156% year-over-year to $14.3 million for Q2 and for the first six months of 2026, Adjusted EBITDA reached $36.7 million. Positive free cash flow while continuing significant investment: Operating cash flow before working capital changes was $13.9 million during Q2 2026. After approximately $11.3 million of capital investment, the Company generated free cash flow before working capital changes of $2.6 million, compared with negative $3.2 million in Q2 2025. The quarter’s capital investment included continued spending on underground development, infrastructure and record levels of exploration activity.   Tahuehueto had a solid production quarter, where prior investments in the processing plant and underground development, combined with the transition to new mining contractor, La Cantera, contributed to improved operating performance. There will be a coming resource estimate and technical report on increasing the plant throughput out by year-end.   At Campo Morado, previously announced efforts to build a stockpile resulted in a quarter-over-quarter increase in mined tonnes while milled tonnes decreased. This temporarily reduced metal production and cash generation relative to the level of mining activity during the quarter. The stockpile was established to provide greater flexibility in managing mill feed as the Company advances optimization initiatives aimed at improving metallurgical recoveries in the near term, ahead of the anticipated recovery improvements from the Campo Morado Expansion.    Dan outlined that the Campo Morado Expansion technical study, due out in H2 2026, would be comprised of: Building up the stockpile to blend the ore into the mill improving recoveries the potential for water treatment to reduce acidity trade-off studies on a finer grind size to improve precious metals recoveries   During the second quarter of 2026, the Company completed approximately 12,400 metres of drilling, a Luca quarterly record, taking the year-to-date drilled meters to ~ 22,000. Exploration activities were primarily focused on near-mine and resource expansion targets, achieving the objectives of extending mine life and improving production flexibility at the Company’s operating assets.  There are 38 nearby targets around Campo Morado, identified by gravity surveys, that will start being systematically explored in the quarters to come.   Click here to follow the latest news from Luca Mining     If you have any question for Dan regarding Luca Mining, then please email those into us  at Fleck@kereport.com or  Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure Shad is a shareholder of Luca Mining at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substack reports:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.
