([TSXV:FG]( ("Falcon" or the "Company") is pleased to report drill crews and equipment are now being mobilized to our Great Burnt Copper Project (the "Property") located in Central Newfoundland. The Company previously encountered delays earlier this spring due to high water levels in accessing the Property. The Company has now completed 3 km of additional road to the drill site from the government access road which we share with Benton Resources. Karim Rayani, Chief Executive Officer and director stated: "We are very excited to have mobilized drill crews and equipment for inaugural drill campaign at our Great Burnt Project. Falcon is perfectly situated in what is shaping up to be Newfoundland's highest-grade copper district. Drilling is set for testing up to ten geophysical anomalies initially with 1100 metres of drilling. An application for a secondary permit for an additional 2000m to 3000m is now ongoing." The Great Burnt Copper Property Falcon holds 2,275 hectares in the Great Burnt camp, with licenses located north of, and contiguous to, Benton Resources Inc. - Homeland Nickel (previously known as Spruce Ridge Resources Ltd.) Great Burnt Copper-Gold joint venture (see Figure 1). Benton Resources Inc. ("Benton") optioned the Great Burnt Copper-Gold Project from Spruce Ridge Resources Ltd. (now known as Homeland Nickel) in an agreement that allowed Benton to earn a 70% interest in the property ([see press release dated July 17, 2024](. The Benton property is host to the Great Burnt Copper Zone, a deposit with an indicated resource of 381,300 tonnes at 2.68% Cu and inferred resources of 663,100 tonnes at 2.10% Cu ([Benton option - Homeland Nickel](. Recent drilling by Benton at the Great Burnt Copper Deposit reported drill results that returned 7.20% Cu, 7.12 g/t Ag, and 0.05% Co over 12.30 metres ([see press release dated December 5, 2023](. Previous drilling in 2020 by Spruce Ridge reported 8.06% Cu over 27.2 m ([see press release dated March 18, 2021](. The Great Burnt Greenstone Belt is prospective for copper and gold and further hosts the South Pond A and South Pond B copper-gold zones and the End Zone copper prospect along a 14 km mineralized corridor. The mineralized corridor occurs along a conductive trend, and this conductive trend continues into Falcon's Great Burnt Copper Property (see right-hand-side image in Figure 1). Figure 1.
