GoldInxs Mining Corp. has received a Multi-Year Area Based drilling permit from the British Columbia Ministry of Mines and Critical Minerals for its Fishpot Property in central British Columbia.

The permit clears the way for the company to proceed with an inaugural diamond drill program of up to 2,000 metres. The upcoming drilling will provide the first modern subsurface test of the property, which has seen only 378 metres completed across two historical holes.

The project area has expanded from 2,472 hectares to 5,509 hectares following the approval of new claim tenures 1137374 and 1137373. Surface exploration at the property has previously returned rock sample results of up to 5.65 g/t gold, 11.35 g/t silver and 0.42% copper.

GoldInxs recently completed an initial public offering in July 2026, raising gross proceeds of $1,544,800 to fund exploration activities across its portfolio. As part of its preparatory work, the company engaged Ripplinger Royalties Corp. in August 2026 to apply its Virtual DRILL remote-sensing technology, integrating satellite data with conventional geophysics to sharpen targets. Those datasets complement a recently completed 3D Induced Polarization survey conducted by SJ Geophysics Ltd. to identify anomalies associated with sulphide mineralization and hydrothermal alteration.

The Fishpot system shares regional geological characteristics with Artemis Gold Inc.’s Blackwater Mine within the surrounding district, where the operator reported record production of 74,063 ounces of gold for the second quarter of 2026.

“Receiving our drilling permits is a major milestone for GoldInxs and brings Fishpot to the point where we can move from target generation to drill testing. We have systematically advanced the project through the first modern, systematic geological, geochemical and geophysical programs, and we are now positioned to test our highest-priority targets with the drill bit. With Fishpot’s encouraging surface geochemistry, compelling geophysical signatures, limited historical drilling, combined with an increased project area, our upcoming drill program is an important next step in evaluating the potential of this underexplored mineral system.”

— Nick Michael, President and CEO

GoldInxs is focused on finalizing drill targeting and preparing for the campaign in the coming months.
