BLUE THUNDER ANNOUNCES CFO CHANGE AND HOLDS FIRST TECHNICAL COMMITTEE MEETING WITH IAMGOLD

Blue Thunder Mining Inc. has appointed Robert Boisjoli as the company's chief financial officer (CFO), effective immediately. Mr. Boisjoli, who is based in Montreal, replaces the company's outgoing CFO, Donna McLean.

Mr. Boisjoli is a managing director of Atwater Financial Group, a company specializing in financial reporting services for listed mining companies. He is an adviser to various public exploration companies. Mr. Boisjoli was an investment banker with various Canadian securities firms. He is also a board member on CPA professional associations and various non-profit community organizations.

Blue Thunder is also pleased to announce that it held its first technical committee meeting with Iamgold Corp. and has begun planning its 2024 exploration program for the Muus project. The initial steps of this program will include data compilation and review of the work to date, with the expectation of defining several drill targets for testing during 2024, as well as prioritizing areas for further detailed work.

The upcoming program will focus on exploration for the following three target types:

1. Nelligan-type gold mineralization in the southern part of the Muus claims;
2. High-grade gold mineralization (similar to Monster Lake) in the northern part of the Muus claims; and
3. Copper/gold volcanic massive sulphide minerals in the northern part of the Muus claims.

Dorian L. (Dusty) Nicol, chief executive officer of Blue Thunder, stated: "I want to welcome Robert Boisjoli as our new CFO. He brings a depth of experience in financial reporting and business management that will be of great benefit to our company. I would also like to thank Donna for her commitment and many contributions to the company, and we wish her the best in her future endeavours.

"Furthermore, after having our first technical meeting with Iamgold, I'm now even more enthusiastic about the discovery of Muus and the benefits to our program that will ensue from the co-operation with the Iamgold team."
