BLUE LAGOON DELIVERS 1,000 TONNES TO MILLING PARTNER - PROCESSING EXPECTED TO BEGIN BY WEEK'S END
Blue Lagoon Resources Inc. has now delivered its initial 1,000 tonnes of mineralized material from its Dome Mountain gold mine to its milling partner, Nicola Mining.
This delivery marks an important operational milestone in the company's transition to production. With the initial tonnage now delivered, Blue Lagoon expects processing of Dome Mountain mineralized material to begin by the end of this week, subject to normal mill scheduling and planned maintenance activities.
"This is a significant milestone for Blue Lagoon," said Rana Vig, president and chief executive officer. "Delivering our initial 1,000 tonnes marks a key derisking milestone and sets the stage for processing to begin by the end of this week. We are now on the doorsteps of a major transition -- from a prerevenue company to a revenue-generating gold producer, all against the backdrop of a historically strong gold market."
Operational update
The company has been focused on advancing underground development and the mine-to-mill workflow, including mineralized material handling and logistics, stockpile management, and co-ordinating delivery schedules to support ongoing processing. As milling begins, the company expects to provide the market with additional updates on operational progress, including continuing deliveries, processing timelines and other milestones related to the ramp-up phase.
In addition, the company is pleased to announce that it has signed a lease for a new facility that will host Blue Lagoon's own assay laboratory and the procurement process for equipment has commenced. Establishing an in-house assay lab is expected to
shorten assay times and provide quick and accurate information to the company's underground team to accelerate mining decisions.
Path to revenue generation
Commencing processing is a pivotal step for Blue Lagoon as it moves toward generating revenue from gold production. With Dome Mountain now advancing into this next phase, management's near-term priority is consistent execution -- delivering mineralized material, supporting steady processing and progressing through the early production cycle in a disciplined manner.
The company will provide additional updates as processing begins and operations progress.
About Blue Lagoon Resources Inc.
Blue Lagoon Resources is a Canadian-based, well-financed, growth-oriented mining company focused on advancing its 100-per-cent-owned Dome Mountain gold project in British Columbia. Led by a team with deep mining and finance experience, the company operates in one of the world's most attractive mining jurisdictions.
In February, 2025, Blue Lagoon achieved a major milestone with the granting of a full mining permit -- one of only nine issued in British Columbia since 2015 -- and has since commenced underground mining operations. Mineralized material from Dome Mountain will be processed under a long-term toll milling agreement with Nicola Mining, with first gold sales targeted for Q4 (fourth quarter) 2025. Beginning in H1 (first half) 2026, the company plans to reinvest internally generated cash flow into near-mine and regional exploration to further expand its resource base.
With a strong commitment to sustainability, community and first nation engagement, Blue Lagoon's objective is to become a profitable, cash-flowing gold producer while creating lasting value for shareholders and stakeholders alike.
The company is not basing its production decision at Dome Mountain on a feasibility study of mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability. The production decision is based on having existing mining infrastructure, past bulk sampling and processing activity and the established mineral resource. The company understands that there is increased uncertainty, and consequently a higher risk of failure, when production is undertaken in advance of a feasibility study.
We seek Safe Harbor.
