Thesis Gold & Silver Receives Confirmation of Substituted Impact Assessment Process for Lawyers-RanchJune 26, 2026 7:00 AM
PR Newswire (US) VANCOUVER, BC, June 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Thesis Gold & Silver Inc. ("Thesis", or the "Company") (TSXV: TAU) (OTCQX: THSGF) (WKN: A422AH) is pleased to announce that it has received confirmation from the Government of Canada that the Impact Assessment ("IA") process for its 100% owned Lawyers-Ranch gold-silver project (the "Project") will be substituted to the Province of British Columbia ("BC"). As a result, BC's Environmental Assessment Office ("EAO") will conduct the IA for Lawyers-Ranch under the Environmental Assessment Act, SBC 2018, C.51 on behalf of the Impact Assessment Agency of Canada ("IAAC"). Dr. Ewan Webster, Thesis' President & CEO, and Director, commented "This is a significant milestone for the Lawyers-Ranch Project and an important step toward a more efficient and coordinated permitting pathway. The substituted process provides greater certainty and clarity as we advance the Project, while maintaining the high environmental, social, and consultation standards expected by all parties. We believe Lawyers-Ranch has the potential to become an important source of precious metals for Canada, generating meaningful benefits for First Nations, local communities, British Columbia, and the country as a whole. We look forward to continuing to work collaboratively with governments, regulators, and Indigenous Nations as we advance toward an environmental assessment decision."The substituted IA process under Canada's IAA is expected to streamline permitting for Lawyers-Ranch by allowing the Province of BC to lead a single, consolidated environmental review in place of parallel federal and provincial assessments, provided federal requirements are met. This "one project, one review" approach is expected to reduce duplication, shorten timelines, and lower administrative burden, while maintaining robust consideration of environmental, social, and Indigenous impacts. By aligning the provincial IA with federal permitting requirements and supporting federal participation and Indigenous consultation, Thesis expects improved coordination, greater regulatory clarity, and reduced uncertainty. Thesis expects an EA decision in early 2029.The Company commenced the Project's Environmental Assessment ("EA") and permitting process on December 10, 2025, at both the provincial and federal levels by submitting an Initial Project Description ("IPD") and Engagement Plan to BC's EAO and the IPD and a Plain Language Summary to the IAAC. On May 22, 2026, the Honourable Julie Dabrusin, Canada's Minister of the Environment, Climate Change and Nature, approved the substitution of the conduct of the IA to the Province of BC.Minister Dabrusin's decision follows IAAC's determination that an IA is required pursuant to the Impact Assessment Act ("IAA"). The information gathered by EAO through the provincial EA will support a federal decision on the Project under the IAA. Minister Dabrusin also noted that the substitution decision was made before the EAO's decision that the Project is ready to proceed to a provincial EA, in order to provide process clarity, reduce timelines and increase efficiency.On behalf of the Board of Directors,Thesis Gold & Silver Inc.,

Thesis Gold & Silver Identifies Two Distinct Porphyry Targets on the Lawyers-Ranch ProjectMarch 30, 2026 6:00 AM
PR Newswire (US)

VANCOUVER, BC, March 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Thesis Gold & Silver Inc. ("Thesis", or the "Company") (TSXV: TAU) (OTCQX: THSGF) (FSE: A422AH) is pleased to announce the identification of two, high-quality porphyry exploration targets at Ranch and Ranch East. These areas are within the Company's 100% owned Lawyers–Ranch gold–silver Project located in the prolific Toodoggone Mining District of northern British Columbia.The 2025 exploration program focused on two priorities: advancing the understanding of near-surface, high-grade gold in areas such as Bingo, and Steve, and testing for porphyry potential at Ranch and Ranch East, a non-contiguous claim package 15 kilometres ("km") east of the Ranch resource area (Figure 1). Geological mapping, geochemical sampling, reinterpretation of alteration patterns, and insights from the 2025 drill program have identified two distinct porphyry exploration targets. The emerging porphyry potential identified by the Thesis geology team adds to an already strong project foundation established by the 2025 Prefeasibility Study (the "PFS") (see the news release dated Dec. 1, 2025, entitled "Thesis Gold Announces Positive Prefeasibility Study for Lawyers-Ranch Project: After-Tax NPV5% of $2.37 Billion and 54.4% IRR"), which outlined a base-case scenario with an after-tax NPV (5%) of C$2.37 billion, a 54.4% IRR, and a 1.1 year payback period at US$2,900 gold and US$35 silver.With metal prices currently well above those base-case assumptions, the project already carries meaningful economic upside. The newly identified porphyry targets at Ranch and Ranch East represent additional opportunity to expand the resource base at Lawyers–Ranch and highlight real potential for this project beyond the development case established in the PFS.Key HighlightsTwo high-quality porphyry exploration targets identified within the Lawyers–Ranch project represent different exposure levels within the continuum of porphyry–epithermal systems:Ranch:The established resource is hosted in a well-developed high-sulfidation lithocap defined by silicic and advanced argillic alteration (alunite, pyrophyllite, dickite, pyrite)A major hydrothermal upflow zone at Moly Corridor was identified by targeting elevated molybdenum in surface samples and coincident resistivity and chargeability anomaliesWell-developed silicic alteration and the presence of gusano textures and diatreme breccia supports proximity to a porphyry systemInterpretation: Ranch lithocap is inferred to overlie a potential porphyry system at depthRanch East:Exposes high-temperature inner propylitic alteration at surface across a >1 km footprintIncludes magnetite–actinolite veins with albite halos and clast-selective epidote alterationSurface grab sampling returned elevated copper and silver values, including:2.31% Cu (bornite-bearing)1.76% Cu with 14.0 ppm Ag (chalcopyrite-bearing)Interpretation: consistent with exposure of deeper levels of a porphyry systemExploration Implications: The presence of both lithocap-hosted and deeper porphyry-level alteration indicates potential for multiple porphyry systems within the Lawyers-Ranch districtThe target identified at Ranch underlies many existing shallow, high-grade gold targetsDuring the 2026 field season, Thesis will continue the work to advance these drill targets in addition to critical-path data collection required for an upcoming Feasibility StudyEwan Webster, President and CEO, commented, "The identification of two porphyry systems at different levels of exposure highlights the district-scale potential emerging at Ranch. Ranch East provides a rare window into deeper levels of a porphyry system, while Ranch preserves the upper lithocap portion of a similar system. Together, these observations significantly expand the exploration potential across the project area, provide compelling new targets for further exploration, and represent exciting upside to the mining scenario already established in our 2025 PFS."Porphyry Exploration in a Magmatic-Hydrothermal SystemPorphyry–epithermal systems are characterized by predictable alteration patterns and overprinting relationships that can be used to vector toward mineralized intrusions at depth (Figure 2). At deeper levels, these systems commonly develop a domain of propylitic alteration (Figure 2: "The Green Rock Environment") that is zoned outward from a central intrusive complex. This alteration is characterized by mineral assemblages that transition from actinolite-bearing through epidote-dominant and outward into chlorite-altered rocks, reflecting a decrease in temperature away from the intrusion.At shallow crustal levels, these systems may be overprinted by lithocaps consisting of silicic, advanced argillic, and argillic alteration, which may host high-sulfidation mineralization (Figure 2: "The Lithocap Environment"). The Ranch resource area is characterized by the features that define a Lithocap environment.The Green Rock and Lithocap environments are separated by a sericite-dominated transition zone, characterized by phyllic and intermediate argillic alteration. This zone represents the interface between lithocap and porphyry environments (Figure 2: "Transition Zone"). Identifying this transition zone, and particularly where hydrothermal fluids were focused, is critical for vectoring toward a porphyry intrusion at depth.Ranch Lithocap: High-Sulfidation System Above a Potential PorphyryWithin the Ranch area, high-sulfidation deposits like at Bonanza-Ridge, BV, and the Thesis Corridor (Figure 1C), are hosted within a lithocap defined by silicic, advanced argillic, and argillic alteration (Figure 3). These characteristics are typical of high-sulfidation epithermal environments that develop above deeper porphyry systems.Within this broader system, the Moly Corridor emerged as a key zone of interest for the 2025 exploration program based on elevated molybdenum and gold values in surface samples and coincident geophysical anomalies (Figure 1C). Elevated molybdenum is atypical of high-sulfidation epithermal systems and more commonly associated with porphyry environments, suggesting the lithocap may overlie a porphyry system at depth.Several additional features further support this interpretation. Gusano textures, defined by wormy and patchy domains of dickite, pyrophyllite, diaspore, and white mica (Figure 3A, D, E), have been observed at depth at the Steve zone. In lithocap systems, these textures are commonly associated with the transition zone directly above porphyry deposits (Figure 2: "Transition Zone").A diatreme breccia (Figure 3A, E) has also been identified within the Moly Corridor. In lithocap environments, these breccias are typically linked to the focused release of hydrothermal fluids above underlying porphyry intrusions and can highlight zones of concentrated fluid "upflow". The interpretation of a hydrothermal upflow zone adjacent to the diatreme in the Moly Corridor is supported by intensely developed silicic and alunite-dominant advanced argillic alteration and a coincident resistivity anomaly (Figure 3A, B, C). Similar upflow zones in high-sulfidation systems are typically positioned directly above porphyry intrusions and represent key vectors toward mineralized centres at depth.At both Steve zone and Moly Corridor, alteration transitions from advanced argillic assemblages into sericite-dominant alteration with localized windows of propylitic alteration. This transition is broadly coincident with a chargeability anomaly, interpreted to reflect the presence of a pyrite-rich plume (Figures 2 and 3).Taken together, these geological, geochemical, and geophysical observations are interpreted to define the transition from lithocap alteration into porphyry-style alteration, supporting the presence of a preserved porphyry system beneath the Ranch lithocap.Ranch East: Inner Propylitic Alteration and Copper–Silver MineralizationRanch East claims were staked in 2024 in part, due to the presence of the regionally significant "Kyba Red Line," which represents the unconformable boundary between Triassic and Jurassic volcanic units. In both the Golden Triangle and the greater Toodoggone district, this boundary is spatially associated with numerous porphyry and epithermal deposits (Figure 1B), and is widely accepted as a prospectivity marker for potential porphyry-style mineralization.In contrast to the Ranch lithocap and underlying transition zone, the target at Ranch East is characterized by high-temperature, inner propylitic alteration (actinolite subzone) and copper–silver mineralization. These characteristics were observed at surface during a 2025 field mapping campaign and suggest that erosion has exposed the deeper portions of a porphyry system (Figures 2 and 4) in this area.The zone of inner-propylitic-altered rock outlined in Figure 4A contains clast-selective and pervasive epidote alteration and veins (Figure 4A, B), quartz–sulfide veins, and, most notably, magnetite–actinolite veins with albite halos (Figure 4C) developed within volcanic host rocks. These features are extensive and occur across an area at least one km in length within a surrounding ~3 km long gossanous zone. Copper–silver mineralization identified through surface sampling is locally associated with the inner-propylitic features described above and is more broadly present across the Ranch East tenure.Together, these observations, and the spatial extent across which they occur indicate that Ranch East represents a compelling porphyry exploration target and provides a rare window into deeper levels of a porphyry-style hydrothermal system within the district.Exploration ImplicationsThe coexistence of inner propylitic alteration at Ranch East and a high-sulfidation lithocap and underlying upflow zone at Ranch indicates that the district preserves multiple levels of porphyry-related hydrothermal systems. This framework significantly expands the exploration potential across the Ranch area and supports the interpretation that additional porphyry systems may be present within the broader project area.Future exploration in 2026 will focus on advancing these targets through continued mapping and sampling across the Ranch East alteration system, expanding geophysical surveys to refine potential intrusive centres, and drilling to test priority porphyry targets across the project.Quality Assurance and ControlSamples were analyzed at Bureau Veritas Minerals Laboratories in Vancouver, Canada (an ISO/IEC 17025-accredited facility).
