Vancouver, British Columbia – April 21, 2026 - TheNewswire – Lighthouse Gold Corp. (CSE: LGHT) (“Lighthouse& or the “Company&) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Reshud Mc Lennan as Exploration Manager of the Company and the commencement of its Phase I exploration program at the Aurora NW Project (“Aurora NW&) in Guyana.
\nMr. Mc Lennan is an experienced Guyanese exploration geologist and a member of the discovery team at Reunion Gold&s Oko West Project, recently acquired by G Mining Ventures, and one of the most significant recent gold discoveries in the region.
\nHe most recently served as Exploration Manager for Greenheart Gold in Guyana, where he led in-country exploration programs, managed budgets, and directed multidisciplinary teams. His experience spans drill program execution, structural interpretation, and advancing projects from early-stage exploration through resource definition.
\nWill Rascan, Interim CEO, commented, “This is exactly the type of technical leadership we want on the ground. Mr. Mc Lennan brings direct discovery experience in Guyana and will play a key role as we move Aurora NW from concept to drill-ready targets, in addition to working future business development opportunities in the country. Importantly, Reshud is a Guyanese national and fits our corporate philosophy of investing our future with local technical and management professionals.&
\nAurora NW – Prime Location, Clear Plan
\nAurora NW consists of four (4) prospecting permits totalling approximately 1,942 hectares in the Cuyuni–Mazaruni region of Guyana, within the highly prospective Cuyuni Greenstone Belt. The Property is located just 3 km from the Aurora Gold Mine concessions and 7 km from the Aurora Gold Mine, Guyana&s largest operating gold mine.
\nThe Company cautions that mineralization on adjacent properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization on Aurora NW.
\nPhase I Exploration Underway
\nLighthouse is now executing a focused, cost-efficient Phase I exploration program designed to rapidly generate drill targets, including:
\n- Regional data compilation and reinterpretation
\n- Project-scale prospecting, geological mapping and structural analysis
\n- More detailed Rock, stream, and if needed, soil geochemistry
\n- Data interpretation and target definition across priority zones
\nThe goal is to identify mineralized corridors, and drill-ready targets, with follow-up trenching and drilling anticipated later in the season.
\nRascan comments, “Our priority is simple: determine whether structural controls and key lithologies from Aurora extend onto our ground and define targets we can drill this season.&
\nThe Company has granted 100,000 stock options pursuant to its long-term incentive plan. The options are exercisable for a period of two (2) years at a price of $0.10 per share, subject to CSE policies.

Natural resources investments are generally volatile, with higher headline risk than other sectors. They tend to be more sensitive to economic data, political and regulatory events, and underlying commodity prices. The prices of natural resources investments are influenced by factors such as the costs of underlying commodities like oil, gas, metals, and coal. These investments may trade on various exchanges and experience price fluctuations due to short-term demand, supply, and investment flows.
Natural resource investments often respond more sensitively to global events and economic data, including natural disasters, political turmoil, pandemics, or the release of employment data.
Investing in foreign markets may carry greater risks than domestic markets, including political, currency, economic, and market risks. It is essential to evaluate if trading in low-priced and international securities is appropriate for your circumstances and financial resources. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Mine$tockers Inc., its affiliates, family, friends, employees, associates, and others may hold positions in the securities it covers. Some of the companies covered may be paying clients of the production.
No investment process is risk-free, and profitability is not guaranteed; investors may lose their entire investment. No investment strategy or risk management technique can guarantee returns or eliminate risk in any market environment. Diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against loss. Investing in foreign securities involves risks not associated with domestic investments, such as currency fluctuations, political and economic instability, and differing accounting standards, potentially leading to greater share price volatility. The prices of small- and mid-cap company stocks generally experience higher volatility than large-company stocks and may involve higher risks. Smaller companies may lack the management expertise, financial resources, product diversification, and competitive strengths needed to withstand adverse economic conditions.
