Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 21, 2026) - Questcorp Mining Inc. (CSE: QQQ) (OTCQB: QQCMF) (FSE: D910) (the "Company" or "Questcorp") along with partner Riverside Resources, has completed an expanded aeromagnetic drone survey at the La Union Project in Sonora, Mexico. The new data, together with property-wide structural mapping and the high-grade Phase 2 sampling results announced May 5, 2026, are being used to refine drill targets ahead of the fully permitted summer drill program. Drill roads and pads are currently being established and preparations drill mobilization are progressing rapidly.

Highlights

Expanded drone aeromagnetic survey adds a further 248 line km of total drone coverage, consisting of 193 line km (145 flight lines) along with 55 line km of tie lines (20 tie lines), building on the 2025 baseline dataset. Improved imaging of structures beneath post-mineral cover, including newly identified northwest-trending structures interpreted from spring 2026 field mapping as potential ore controls. Improved imaging of structures beneath post-mineral cover, including newly identified northwest-trending structures interpreted from spring 2026 field mapping as potential ore controls. Integrated structural mapping with detailed 1:1,000 geologic field mapping of target areas and district-scale 1:5,000 geologic mapping to characterize interpretations at depth that may be associated with mineralization. An Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical survey is expected to commence shortly to further derisk the Phase 2 drill targeting.

Construction of drill roads and pads has commenced for the upcoming Phase 2 drill program. Questcorp President & CEO Saf Dhillon commented: "The key objective of the early stages of the Phase II Exploration Program is to derisk the up-coming fully funded drill program to the maximum extent possible. John-Mark and his Riverside technical and field teams continue to maximize the effectiveness of every exploration dollar, strengthening the datasets and locating consistent high-grade mineralization across multiple zones, while concurrently identifying new targets that significantly expand the project's footprint."

"The expanded aeromagnetic survey provides a much clearer view of the Union Project structural framework at depth, and combined with the high-grade sampling results released earlier this month we have the data in hand to refine our Phase 2 drill targets," said John-Mark Staude, President and CEO, Riverside Resources Inc. "The program is going well and our teams are working to prepare for the launch of drilling that is coming soon while expanding the drill targets where high grade gold and base metals were historically mined, with geophysics now helping to image potential source targets at depths."

Survey Overview

The survey was flown with a magnetometer suspended beneath a drone along parallel flight lines, with tie lines flown perpendicular to level the dataset. The expanded grid extends magnetic coverage across the property in all directions beyond the 2025 baseline survey, providing district-wide imaging of structural features and magnetic bodies at depth. The 2025 dataset was a key input into planning the Phase 1 drill holes; the expanded 2026 dataset will allow these structures to be traced more confidently beneath post-mineral cover and build a more complete exploration model for Union.

Path Forward to Drilling

The aeromagnetic data is being integrated with the property-wide structural reinterpretation, surface and underground sampling, and the up-coming IP survey to finalize drill targets. With permits in hand, site access secured, and a drill contractor and geophysical service provider contracted, Questcorp and Riverside remain on track for drill mobilization at the La Union Project in the coming weeks.
