Renegade Gold Expands Red Lake Land Package To 94,000 Ha With Acquisition Of Bobjo And Keystone Properties Announces Share Consolidation
The BobJo Property will be advanced as part of the Company's Confederation Project, while the Keystone Property expands Renegade's contiguous holdings between Red Lake Main, Gullrock, and Confederation properties, further strengthening the Company's position across both the Red Lake and Confederation greenstone belts.
Devin Pickell, President and CEO for Renegade, commented, "The Keystone Property represents a strategic stretch of the Confederation unit that connects our core Red Lake land with our vast Confederation Belt holdings. This 15 km corridor begins near Red Lake at the Balmer-Confederation contact and extends eastward along highly favorable structural targets and mafic-felsic contacts which are key to recent Red Lake discoveries. The Keystone Property provides an excellent bridge between Red Lake and the Birch-Uchi Confederation belt while also allowing for more efficient claim management.
The addition of BobJo comes at an exciting time as we renew our focus on building a strong pipeline of exploration targets within the Confederation Project. This property lies fully inside of our existing land position, and the historical presence of high-grade gold mineralization is extremely encouraging. We look forward to solidifying our exploration models and advancing new drill targets in this area."

About the BobJo Property
The BobJo Property consists of nine patented mining claims covering approximately 65 ha within the Birch-Uchi greenstone belt, east of Red Lake, Ontario. The property is contiguous with Renegade's Confederation Project, providing a strategic addition to the Company's consolidated land position in the district.
The surrounding area has a long history of production from both base metal and gold deposits including: the South Bay Mine , which produced 1.5 million tonnes at 1.8% copper, 11.06% zinc and 73 g/t silver over its 13-year mine life.1 The Grassett, Uchi, Hanalda and Jalda Mines also reported combined production output of 757,000 tonnes at 5.14 g/t gold,2 with the Grasset Mine alone producing 78,000 tonnes at 7.54 g/t gold.3
Exploration at BobJo dates back to the 1920's, when a shaft and small-scale mining activity were developed. Modern exploration includes a 2007 drilling program comprising 28 holes totalling 5,700 m, which returned multiple high-grade intercepts such as:
- 6.53 g/t Au over 8.3 m (BJ07-01) 123.6 g/t Au over 2.1 m (BJ07-14) 20.8 g/t Au over 1.1 m and 29.0 g/t Au over 0.3 m (BJ07-06)5

About the Keystone Property
The Keystone Property consists of 212 unpatented single-cell mining claims covering approximately 4,320 ha. The property is strategically located between Renegade's Red Lake Main, Gullrock, and Confederation properties and is contiguous with the Company's existing land holdings, consolidating a district-scale land package across the Red Lake and Confederation greenstone belts.
Keystone is underlain by felsic volcanic and intrusive rocks of the Confederation assemblage and is considered prospective ground for volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) and orogenic gold deposits.
With its large contiguous footprint and favourable geology. Keystone represents a compelling addition to Renegade's Red Lake portfolio, complementing the high-grade potential at BobJo and enhancing the Company's pipeline of exploration targets.
