Omineca Announces Hard Rock Gold Discovery at Wingdam Exploration Project, Including 4.84 g/t Gold Over 1.07 Meters and 1.25 g/t Gold Over 2.0 Meters

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan – TheNewswire - August 6, 2026 – Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd. (TSXV: OMM) (OTCQB: OMMSF) ("Omineca" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the discovery of a hard rock (“lode”) gold zone from the 2025 winter drill program results at the Wingdam gold exploration program located in the Cariboo Mining District in south-central British Columbia. The initial gold intercepts, drilled 500 meters west of and at depths lower than the elevation of our Wingdam underground paleoplacer gold project, validate our assertion of a proximal lode source for the rich paleoplacer gold found beneath Lightning Creek.  These results coincide with recent empirical evidence in the underground placer workings that Lightning Creek flowed from west to east (opposite its present direction) when the gold was eroded into the valley, indicating that the source lies downstream of the placer deposits. Omineca's ongoing exploration  program will focus on expanding the footprint of this discovery with details to be announced once finalized.
