Andy Tudor Appointment Strengthens Rush Gold's Leadership Depth

Rush Gold has appointed Andy Tudor as Chairman of the company. The release describes Tudor as a geologist and mining executive with over 40 years of industry experience across the mineral exploration and mining sectors. The company also disclosed that effective September 28, 2026, Inez Ho resigned as Corporate Secretary while retaining her role as CFO, with Paulette Pears appointed Corporate Secretary on the same date. As at September 30, 2026, the company reported unaudited cash on hand of CAD$706,836, with 53,199,050 shares outstanding.

Landy Investments Acquisition Doubles Rush Gold's Walker Lane Project Count

Through the completed acquisition of Landy Investments Ltd., Rush Gold has secured an 80% interest in the Hollow North-South project, located 15 kilometres east of Yerington in the established Yerington Copper District, and the Douglas Canyon project, situated 80 kilometres northwest of Tonopah in the Silver Star Mining District. These projects complement the company's existing Skylight and Legal Tender properties, both located approximately 60–62 kilometres northwest of Tonopah. All four projects sit within Nevada's Walker Lane Trend, a region the company identifies as central to its growth strategy.

Skylight and Legal Tender Exploration Results Outline Drill-Ready Targets

At the Skylight property, Rush Gold's rock sampling has outlined a 1.2-kilometre north-south trend returning anomalous gold and silver values. ASTER satellite image processing identified widespread alteration anomalies extending over approximately 1.2 kilometres, consistent with a low-sulphidation epithermal gold-silver system. At Legal Tender, a 2025 rock sampling program returned a high of 2,770 g/t Ag and 2.41 g/t Au. The company considers the Hyland Mine Trend a priority drill target, exhibiting a 400-metre northwest-trending strike length. All rock samples are selective by nature and not necessarily representative of overall property mineralisation.

Communications Strategy and Advisory Partnerships Target Broader Investor Visibility

Alongside its exploration advances, Rush Gold announced a new advisory, communications, and marketing strategy intended to strengthen market awareness. The release states the strategy is supported by partnerships with CPS Capital Group in Australia and EuroSwiss Capital Partners Inc. in Switzerland. The company indicated that proceeds from the recent financing are intended to advance exploration across its existing and newly acquired projects. Exploration program planning is underway and is expected to include geological mapping, geochemical sampling, geophysics, and drill testing of priority targets. The immediate share price impact was not clear from available public information.
