Renegade Gold Identifies New Gold Targets Along the LP-Uchi Corridor in Red Lake

Renegade Gold identifies new gold anomalies at LP-Uchi, advancing targets toward 2027 drilling.

What the company is saying

Renegade Gold Inc. (TSXV:RAGE, OTCQB:RENGF, FSE:0700) reports completion of its 2026 first-pass till and soil geochemical sampling at the LP-Uchi Project, approximately 50 km east of Red Lake, Ontario. The company highlights the identification of multiple new, multi-kilometre gold anomalies along the LP fault corridor, defining several targets for follow-up exploration. The announcement emphasizes that fieldwork is now complete across the Confederation Belt, including mapping and prospecting at Belanger and BobJo, and that 884 till and soil samples were collected at LP-Uchi. Management, led by President and CEO Devin Pickell, frames these results as expanding the company’s greenfield discovery pipeline and supporting further grassroots exploration. The company references high-grade channel sampling results from BobJo (16.2 g/t Au over 5.0 m, including 56.1 g/t Au over 1.4 m) and Belanger (25.9 g/t Au over 0.3 m and 2.52 g/t Au over 9.2 m) to underscore the potential of the region. The technical content has been reviewed and approved by Executive Chair Dale Ginn, P.Geo., as Qualified Person under NI 43-101. The tone is confident, positioning these results as a foundation for advancing targets toward drill-readiness in the planned 2027 exploration program.

What the data suggests

The company collected 884 till and soil samples across the LP-Uchi corridor, with assays returned for both till and enzyme-leach samples. The release discloses specific high-grade channel sampling results from BobJo (16.2 g/t Au over 5.0 m, including 56.1 g/t Au over 1.4 m) and Belanger (25.9 g/t Au over 0.3 m, 2.52 g/t Au over 9.2 m), but provides no quantitative grades or widths for the new LP-Uchi anomalies, only stating that they are 'elevated' and spatially associated with fault structures from the winter 2025/2026 drone magnetic survey. The technical methodology is detailed, including sample sizes (0.5 kg), spacing (750 m lines at 250 m intervals for till; 200 m x 200 m grid for enzyme-leach), and QA/QC procedures via ALS Canada Ltd. Renegade Gold holds 1,542 km² of mineral claims in the Red Lake Mining District. The data supports that fieldwork is complete and new targets have been identified, but the economic significance of these anomalies is not yet established. The next steps involve integrating these results with historical datasets and advancing targets toward drill-readiness for 2027, with no immediate resource or economic assessment provided.

Analysis

The announcement provides a detailed and credible update on the completion of first-pass till and soil sampling at the LP-Uchi Project, with specific sample counts (884), methodologies, and QA/QC procedures. Several realised facts are disclosed, including the completion of fieldwork, assay returns, and previously reported high-grade channel sampling results. However, the tone is somewhat inflated by highlighting 'multiple new, multi-kilometre gold anomalies' and 'several new targets' without quantifying the size, grade, or economic significance of these anomalies. Forward-looking statements about advancing targets toward drill-readiness and a planned 2027 exploration program are present, but these benefits are long-term and contingent on future work. No large capital outlay is disclosed, and the absence of financial or resource estimates is normal for this exploration stage. The gap between narrative and evidence lies in the qualitative description of anomalies and targets, which are not yet supported by detailed quantitative results or economic analysis.

Risk flags

• ●The absence of quantitative grades or widths for the new LP-Uchi anomalies means their economic potential is unproven; investors have no basis to assess the scale or quality of these targets until further work is completed.
• ●The timeline to potential value creation is extended, as the company plans to advance targets toward drill-readiness for 2027, leaving at least a year before drilling can confirm or refute the presence of significant mineralization.
• ●Grassroots exploration in greenfield settings carries high geological risk, as most anomalies do not translate into economic discoveries; the announcement does not address funding or budget for the next exploration phase.

Bottom line

Renegade Gold’s update confirms completion of first-pass geochemical sampling at LP-Uchi, with 884 samples collected and new gold anomalies identified, but provides no quantitative results for these new targets. High-grade channel sampling at BobJo and Belanger demonstrates prospectivity in the region, yet the LP-Uchi anomalies remain untested by drilling. The company’s 1,542 km² land position in Ontario is large, but the path to value depends on advancing these targets and executing the planned 2027 drill program. The technical disclosure is thorough for this stage, but investors lack the data needed to judge the scale or economic relevance of the new anomalies. The next actionable milestone will be the ranking and advancement of targets to drill-ready status, with any resource estimate or economic assessment at least a year away. The most important takeaway is that while the company is building a pipeline of targets, tangible value will depend on future drilling results.

Announcement summary

(TSXV:RAGE) (OTCQB:RENGF) (FSE:0700) Renegade Gold Inc. reported results from its 2026 first-pass till and soil geochemical sampling at the LP-Uchi Project, located approximately 50 km east of Red Lake, Ontario. The program identified multiple new, multi-kilometre gold anomalies along the LP fault corridor, defining several targets for follow-up exploration. The 2026 fieldwork is now complete across the Confederation Belt, including mapping and prospecting at Belanger, mapping and prospecting at BobJo, and a first-pass till and soil sampling program across the LP-Uchi corridor. Elevated gold, silver, antimony, and arsenic values define several new targets along the LP fault corridor. Gold anomalies are spatially associated with fault structures interpreted from the winter 2025/2026 drone magnetic survey. A total of 884 till and soil samples were collected across the LP-Uchi corridor. New LP-Uchi targets complement previously reported high-grade channel sampling results from BobJo, including 16.2 g/t Au over 5.0 m (including 56.1 g/t Au over 1.4 m), and Belanger, including 25.9 g/t Au over 0.3 m and 2.52 g/t Au over 9.2 m. The first-pass till and soil sampling program over the LP-Uchi corridor is now complete, with assays returned for both till and soil (enzyme-leach) samples. Elevated gold, silver, antimony, and arsenic define several new targets along the interpreted LP fault trend, including one northwest of Bluffy Lake. Gold anomalies follow the fault zones interpreted from the winter 2025/2026 drone magnetic survey. These results support further grassroots exploration and project planning to de-risk potential diamond drilling along the LP-Uchi corridor. Results from the 2026 Greenfield Exploration programs at Belanger, BobJo, and the LP-Uchi corridor will be integrated with historical datasets to support ongoing geological interpretation and target refinement. The company intends to use these results, together with the winter 2025/2026 drone magnetic data, to advance priority targets toward drill-readiness as part of its planned 2027 exploration program across the Confederation Belt. The till and enzyme-leach program at LP-Uchi was completed by a third-party contractor. Approximately 0.5 kg of A or B Horizon soil was collected, where possible, on 750 m line spacings at 250 m intervals for the till and at a 200 m x 200 m grid for enzyme-leach samples. Samples were sent to ALS Canada Ltd. independent of the company. Till samples were screened to 180-mesh and analyzed by Aqua Regia digest with ICP-MS Super Trace Au + 53 multi-element analyses. Enzyme-leach samples received a 61-element sodium cyanide leach at a buffered pH of 8.5. Internal ALS Canada replicates and certified reference materials comprise the QA/QC for all till and enzyme-leach analyses. The technical content of this news release has been reviewed and approved by Dale Ginn, P.Geo., the Executive Chair and a director of the company and a Qualified Person pursuant to National Instrument 43-101. Renegade Gold Inc. holds 1,542 km² of mineral claims in the Red Lake Mining District of northwestern Ontario. The company is advancing its flagship Rebel Gold Deposit while building a greenfield discovery pipeline across the Confederation Belt, Gullrock, and Red Lake project areas.
