Expert Comments:

Fundamental Research Corp. (5/20/25) "Western Exploration Inc. gained 28% last week after a promising preliminary economic assessment for its Aura gold project."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (5/9/25) "Doby George is just one of three resource-hosting areas on Western Exploration Inc.'s property, which also features the Wood Gulch and Gravel Creek targets (as well as the newly defined Tomasina Fault system 1 km west of Gravel Creek). . .these other targets should get pulled into the production story at Doby George."
Jeff Clark, TheGoldAdvisor.com (5/8/25) "Western Exploration Inc. released a preliminary economic assessment on the Doby George resource within its Aura gold project. . .using a base case gold price of $2,150/oz, the study projects an after-tax net present value of $70.7M and an after-tax internal rate of return of 25.4%."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (2/26/25) "Western Exploration Inc. identified the Tomasina Fault system on its Aura project in Nevada as a potential area for new gold-silver resources. . .testing of this fault system, combined with more work on the high-grade veins zone outlined at the Jarbidge rhyolite, could help the company grow the Gravel Creek resource base substantially."
Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (1/23/25) "The location of Western Exploration Inc.'s narrower, higher-grade areas less than 200m to the east of the nearly 700,000-ounce (Indicated and Inferred) Gravel Creek resource running over 5 g/t gold will make for ideal production scenarios. And all of this, including the company's nearby Wood Gulch and Doby George resources, is in prime territory in Nevada."
Fundamental Research Corp. (1/13/25) "The final two holes of Western Exploration Inc.'s 2024 drill program at Aura returned high-grade intercepts, including 1.53m of 19.98 g/t Au eq and 1.13m of 12 g/t Au eq. Overall, the 2024 program has delineated a high-grade, 550mx350m mineralized zone east of the existing resources at Gravel Creek, indicating potential for resource expansion."

More Expert Comments

	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (1/10/25) "Hole 461, drilled last year on the Jarbidge rhyolite next to the Gravel Creek deposit at Western Exploration Inc.'s Aura project, cut 1.53m of 20 g/t gold equivalent (Au eq) and 0.85m of 21.3 g/t Au eq. . .the results from the Jarbidge rhyolite will be included in the impending update to that resource estimate, which could be a catalyst for the company."
Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (12/17/24) "Highlights from Western Exploration Inc.'s latest batch of results from the 2024 drilling program on its Aura project included high-grade (albeit narrow) intersections from hole 458 (0.34m of 33.7 g/t Au eq, 0.4m of 15.4 g/t Au eq and 0.61m of 13.7 g/t Au eq) and hole 460 (1.04m of 16.7 g/t Au eq and 0.55m of 75.1 g/t Au eq). . .I think the company makes for a compelling bet on rising gold prices and exploration success in 2025."
	Jordan Roy-Byrne, The Daily Gold (12/8/24) "Most recent results from Western Exploration Inc.'s Gravel Creek, drills hit 22.06 g/t Au eq over 3.69 and 2.44 g/t Au eq over 6.1m. Agnico Eagle owns 14%. Well managed company with excellent, tight structure."
Fundamental Research Corp. (11/12/24) "Drilling near Western Exploration Inc.'s Gravel Creek resource area continues to return high-grade intercepts, including bonanza values of 22 g/t Au and 977 g/t Ag, and 50 g/t Au and 2,110 g/t Ag. Gravel Creek, featuring an underground/high-grade gold resource, is part of the company's Aura gold-silver project."
	Siddharth Rajeev, Fundamental Research Corp. (10/31/24) "Western Exploration Inc. has made notable strides at its Aura gold-silver project, showcasing promising drill results and improved recoveries. With mergers and acquisitions activity on the rise, we believe the company is emerging as a strong acquisition target."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (10/31/24) "Four core holes have been completed so far at Western Exploration Inc.'s Gravel Creek, and one is in progress. . .hole 459 intersected assay values as high as 75.3 g/t gold and 3,080 g/t silver."
Fundamental Research Corp. (10/15/24) "Western Exploration Inc.'s first hole drilled near the Gravel Creek resource area returned exceptional grades of 75.3 g/t Au and 3,080 g/t Ag, extending high-grade mineralization for at least 80m along strike. Gravel Creek, featuring an underground/high-grade gold resource, is part of the company's Aura gold-silver project."
	Chen Lin, What Is Chen Buying? What Is Chen Selling? (10/7/24) "Western Exploration Inc. released excellent drilling results; hole 459 intercepted multiple zones of gold, 1.01m gold at 68.32 g/t, over 2 oz/t(!) plus another zone of 0.49m of 111.54 g/t, about 4 oz/tn. These high-grade gold intercepts can quickly add ounces to the project."
Chen Lin, What Is Chen Buying? What Is Chen Selling? (10/4/24) "Western Exploration Inc. should have drilling results very soon."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (10/3/24) "As a Nevada-based explorer and developer of gold-silver assets with news on the way, Western Exploration Ltd. has the potential to deliver big gains in the relatively near future. It remains a Buy."
Fundamental Research Corp. (9/23/24) "Western Exploration Inc. reported positive metallurgical results at Gravel Creek, with high recovery rates for gold (94.8%) and silver (89.8%). The company also secured $1.7M in financing and is advancing resource updates and a preliminary feasibility study on its Nevada projects."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (9/19/24) "Western Exploration Inc. announced a nonbrokered private placement that will raise CA$1.7M. . .the company will use the money to advance a prefeasibility study on the Doby George deposit at its Aura gold-silver project. . .the cash injection is a good indicator that Western will continue to make news in the months ahead."
Fundamental Research Corp. (8/8/24) "One of our Top Picks, Western Exploration Inc., was last week's third top performer. It gained 19.2% week over week."
	Chen Lin, What Is Chen Buying? What Is Chen Selling? (8/5/24) "Western Exploration Inc. is one of a few juniors that are well funded and have important drilling results this summer."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (8/1/24) "Western Exploration Inc.'s current drill program at Aura is very likely to deliver more high-grade assays to the market in the back half of the year and confirm a very significant new discovery zone. If the gold market pans out like I think it will, the company's timing for good results could be near perfect."
Fundamental Research Corp. (7/12/24) "Western Exploration Inc. is one of our Top Picks in the mining space. Top Picks are our analysts' best ideas which have historically outperformed the benchmark by 38.2%. . .our Top Picks are chosen based on our belief in their future performance."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (5/30/24) "Western Exploration Ltd.'s 4,000m drilling campaign at Aura will be conducted with two rigs supplied by Major Drilling Group, with work expected to begin in late June. The company hopes it will help to link with other 5+ g/t gold equivalent intercepts drilled on the Jarbidge rhyolite, a target which is open ended and currently spans 550m by 350m."
Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (5/9/24) "Western Exploration Inc. announced upcoming drilling planned for its Aura project. . .this program will be one to watch closely as it could lead to a significant expansion of the high-grade already outlined at Aura. If you don't already own a position in the company, I recommend getting one before results come in from this drill program."
	Thibaut Lepouttre, Caesars Report (4/4/24) "Western Exploration Inc. has completed a financing, raising a total of just over CA$6.5M. . .Agnico Eagle Mines participated in this offering as it acquired 857K additional units for a total investment of CA$600K, which brings its total position to approximately 6.3M shares."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (3/28/24) "I expect Western Exploration Inc. to start drilling again as soon as possible. The company is a good story with a tight share structure, and one that I believe will trade higher with the results ahead. . .I wouldn't wait too long to get on board."
	Chen Lin, What Is Chen Buying? What Is Chen Selling? (3/26/24) "Western Exploration Inc. is a new name in my letter. . .the company already made discoveries of 1.5m of 108.5 g/t gold, 1.5m of 237 g/t gold plus silver last year. . .Western is fully funded for this year's drilling."
Fundamental Research Corp. (3/25/24) Western Exploration Inc. was last week's top performer among our Top Picks. . .the company was up 35%. Last week it announced a fully allocated $6M equity financing."
	Brien Lundin, Gold Newsletter (Jefferson Financial) (3/6/24) "The area of the hanging wall in Western Exploration Inc.'s Gravel Creek target is preresource, but it seems likely to more than double the company's current gold resource. That realization will come out over the next year, and I don't expect Western to be trading anywhere near these levels once it does."
	Siddharth Rajeev, Fundamental Research Corp. (1/10/24) "Western Exploration Inc. has completed a stepout drill program at the Aura gold-silver project. . .assays from two holes, located 140−250m east of the known Gravel Creek resource, returned bonanza gold-silver grades of up to 257 g/t Au and 2,800 g/t Ag."
Fundamental Research Corp. (11/27/23) "Initial results of a drill program at Western Exploration Inc.'s Gravel Creek in Nevada returned unusually high gold-silver grades of up to 34.9 g/t Au and 2,800 g/t Ag, indicating resource expansion potential. These holes, located 250m outside the current resource envelope, lie along a 2 km trend of gold-silver anomalies."
Fundamental Research Corp. (8/2/23) "Western Exploration Inc., the top performer in our Weekly Top Picks, was up 10.2%. The company is advancing a near-surface/high-grade oxide gold project in Nevada towards a prefeasibility study."
Clive Maund, CliveMaund.com (7/17/23) "Western Exploration Inc. looks like a buy here for a reversal into a recovery after a severe downtrend from its mid-April highs that cut the company's price about in half. . .a breakout from the long and persistent downtrend is likely to cause an abrupt change in sentiment that leads to a significant advance. . .the stock is very tightly held, so it won't take much of an increase in demand to drive Western Exploration sharply higher."
