  5. FinanceRadisson Continues to Expand Scope of High-Grade Gold Mineralization Beneath the Former O'Brien Gold Mine with New Drill Results Including 68.24 g/t Gold over 6.2 MetresRouyn-Noranda, Quebec, Sept 21, 2026 - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQX: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the results of eight new drill holes recently completed at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Québec. The eight holes form part of two clusters of drill holes based on pilot holes and wedge branches that are serving to delineate an important system of high-grade mineralization in multiple quartz-sulphide-gold veins over a now 1,000-metre vertical interval beneath the former O'Brien Gold Mine. These results are the latest from the Company's ongoing 140,000-metre step-out drill program designed to test the full scope of gold mineralization at the Project. All eight drill holes reported today returned significant gold mineralization. Highlights (Figure 1 and Table 1) include: OB-26-385W5 intersected 68.24 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") over 6.20 metres (core lengths) including 384.01 g/t Au over 1.0 metre and including 28.68 g/t Au over 1.0 metre (residual intercept grade of 2.48 g/t Au); OB-26-385W8 intersected 27.27 g/t Au over 3.3 metres including 72.40 g/t Au over 1.2 metres (residual intercept grade of 1.49 g/t Au), and 3.90 g/t Au over 9.3 metres including 6.10 g/t Au over 2.0 metres and including 5.78 g/t Au over 1.2 metres (residual intercept grade of 2.81 g/t Au), and 8.35 g/t Au over 4.0 metres including 16.10 g/t Au over 1.5 metres (residual intercept grade of 3.7 g/t Au); OB-25-378W4 intersected 8.14 g/t Au over 5.50 metres including 11.52 g/t Au over 3.70 metres (residual intercept grade of 1.19 g/t Au); OB-26-385W7 intersected 18.13 g/t Au over 2.0 metres including 34.91 g/t Au over 1.0 metre (residual intercept grade of 1.35 g/t Au); and OB-25-378W5 intersected 3.90 g/t Au over 9.3 metres including 16.84 g/t Au over 1.4 metres (residual intercept grade of 1.60 g/t Au) and 4.00 g/t Au over 4.60 metres. Matt Manson, President and CEO: "Since the beginning of our deep step-out drilling program at O'Brien in late 2024, we have enjoyed consistent success in expanding the scope of mineralization beyond the former mine and the historical mineral resources. Of the 128 drill holes completed during this period,106 have returned drill intercepts with grades and thicknesses consistent with our mineral resources. This is an impressive 83% "hit" rate (Table 2), and we report every hole completed. We continue to see a consistent pattern of high-grade quartz-sulphide-gold veins within broader, mineralized alteration halos. These mineralized zones form parallel vein packages within the host Piché Group rocks, with good continuity across adjacent drill holes and over significant distances. The two clusters of new drill results reported today are delineating the important "O'Brien Mine East" trend at its top, immediately below the former mine workings, and extending it downwards at up to 2 kilometres vertical depth. In our reporting of drill results, as with today's news, we show the grade of the full interval across the mineralized zone (in core lengths at a 1 g/t Au bottom cut-off) and the "including" interval representing the high-grade quartz-sulphide-gold vein within the zone. The intercept's residual grade, which represents grade in the alteration halo, is typically between 1 g/t Au and 4 g/t Au. These patterns are all demonstrated reliably in today's results. O'Brien is clearly a large scale and increasingly predictable gold mineralizing system. Drilling is ongoing with eight rigs active at the Project."

Gold, along with pyrite and arsenopyrite, is typically associated with shearing and a pervasive biotite alteration, and developed within multiple Piché Group lithologies and, occasionally, the hanging-wall Pontiac and footwall Cadillac meta-sedimentary rocks. As mapped at the historic O'Brien mine, and now replicated in the modern drilling, individual veins are generally narrow, ranging from several centimetres up to several metres in thickness and are associated with broader, mineralized alteration envelopes. Multiple veins occur sub-parallel to each other, as well as sub-parallel to the Piché lithologies and the LLCB. Individual veins have well-established lateral continuity, with steeply plunging grade shoots developed over significant lengths. The historic O'Brien mine produced over half a million ounces of gold from such veins and shoots at an average grade exceeding 15 g/t Au and over a vertical extent of at least 1,000 metres. Modern exploration has focussed on delineating well-developed vein mineralization below and to the east of the historic mine. Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focused on a main central stope and parallel veins identified but left undeveloped.

Step-Out Drilling at O'Brien Since the end of 2024, Radisson has been pursuing a program of broad step-outs beneath the historic O'Brien Gold mine and the existing mineral resources designed to test the extent of gold mineralization at the Project. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency and minimize costs. In October 2025, Radisson announced the expansion of the step-out drill program to 140,000 metres employing eight drill rigs (see Radisson news release dated October 16, 2025). The origin of the step-out drill program was the deep pilot hole OB-24-337, which was the first exploration drill hole located below the former mine workings since mining ended in 1957. This hole intersected 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres, including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 m at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth (see Radisson news release dated December 16, 2024). Fifteen wedge branches were completed from OB-24-337 delineating up to eight gold-bearing veins over a 250-metre by 700-metre area in what is referred to as "O'Brien Mine East" (see Radisson news release dated February 12, 2026). In March 2026, Radisson published an interim update in the Project's mineral resources, showing meaningful growth based on the on-going drilling (see Radisson news release dated March 2, 2026). The focus of the step-out drill program has been the extension of mineralization at depth, with an exploration floor of 2 kilometres depth, and recently announced plans to extend this drilling to 2.5 kilometres depth (see Radisson news release dated May 28, 2026). Given the character of neighbouring gold deposits and the wealth of mining infrastructure within or close to the O'Brien Gold Project, Radisson believes that significant exploration potential exists to these depths, and such mineralization might reasonably be expected to be developed. Drilling has recently confirmed the extension of the "Trend 1" zone of mineralization to 1.9 kilometres vertical depth (see Radisson news release dated April 30, 2026). In addition to the progressively deeper drilling, the 140,000-metre program includes targeting of areas within the O'Brien geological model that have not previously been tested and offer the potential for additional mineral resources at shallower depths. Positive drill results have recently been reported from the "Trend 1-Trend 2 Gap" at approximately 500 and 1,000 metres vertical depth, demonstrating continuity of mineralization across what were previously thought to be discrete mineralization trends (see Radisson news release dated June 1, 2026 and September 2, 2026). The eight new drill holes at the Project reported today continue to demonstrate the very high incidence of intercepts with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's mineral resources ("hits", per Table 2). This now stands at 83% of all drill holes completed to date, an impressive result for a step-out drill program specifically targeting non-resource areas (Figure 4). Mineralization remains open in every direction, with clear opportunities to expand the quantity of new mineral resources, in particular by drilling at depth.

Collar position is reported for pilot hole. QA/QC All drill core in this campaign is NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-core, with the second half retained in the core box for future reference. Geologists mark cut lines on the core perpendicular to the foliation. The half on the right side of the saw blade is bagged for the laboratory and the left half is retained as reference. Sample bags are sealed, placed in rice sacks, plastic-wrapped on pallets, and held in a secure facility until pick-up by the laboratory's dedicated truck. Samples are delivered to MSALABS' analytical laboratory in Val-d'Or, Québec, for preparation and gold analysis. The entire sample is dried and crushed (70% passing a 2-millimetre sieve) and split to 500 g. Gold analysis is performed on an approximately 500 g aliquot (a single jar) using Chrysos PhotonAssay technology. Mineralized zones containing visible gold, plus additional intervals selected at the discretion of the logging geologist, are analyzed to extinction, whereby the entire sample is split into multiple ~500 g jars, each jar is analyzed by PhotonAssay, and the weighted average of the results is used for reporting. A one-metre sample typically requires five jars. Certified reference materials (CRMs), blank samples, and reject duplicates are inserted for quality assurance and quality control. Either a CRM, a blank, or a duplicate is inserted during regular sampling at a rate of 1 per 25 samples, with the insertion rate increased for intervals selected for assay to extinction. Four different CRMs are in use with an appropriate range of certified grades suited for O'Brien mineralization. Jars of CRM material are stored at the laboratory and inserted into the sample stream as directed by Radisson. The CRMs were selected by Radisson in accordance with Chrysos Corporation's best-practice guidelines for PhotonAssay. Blanks consist of commercially obtained crushed quartzite known to be barren of gold. Samples returning results greater than 1 g/t Au are also fire assayed. MSALABS operates under ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation, utilizing industry-standard QA/QC frameworks for gold analysis. Through the integration of blanks, duplicates, and CRMs into its workflow, the laboratory adheres to established benchmarks that ensure precise, reliable, and verifiable results.

FinanceDuiba Group Founder Gifts 11.21% Stake to Employee Incentive Platform in Record-High Founders-to-ESOP Transfer by Share of Capital in Hong Kong Market HistoryHONG KONG, Sept 21, 2026 - Duiba Group Limited (Stock Code: 01753.HK), the Hong Kong-listed operator that has become one of China's fastest-scaling AI short-drama platforms, announced that its controlling shareholder, Xiaoliang Holding Limited, has agreed to transfer 120,682,000 ordinary shares — approximately 11.21% of issued share capital — for nil consideration to Kewei Holding Limited, the Company's employee share award platform. The transfer, executed on 20 September 2026, is understood to be the largest founder-to-ESOP donation by percentage of share capital in the history of the Hong Kong stock market. It is not a disposal for cash. No shares are being sold into the market; all of them are being placed into a vehicle whose sole economic purpose is to reward and retain employees. Crucially, the arrangement is being funded entirely from the founder's personal shareholding. It involves no issuance of new shares and therefore no dilution to existing shareholders, and it consumes no company capital — no cash, no treasury reserves, no debt. The 120,682,000 shares are being transferred at nil consideration from the founder's own account to the employee incentive platform, meaning the cost of motivating and retaining the core team is borne by the founder, not by public investors or the Company's balance sheet. Six months of exponential growth The transfer comes as Duiba's AI short-drama business enters a phase of compounding growth. On Douyin's native end, cumulative playback from June to August rose 178%. In July and August, Duiba ranked top three across the entire industry for two consecutive months, and was the only leading player to sustain month-on-month growth above 50% in both months. Seven years, zero founder selling Duiba listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong on 7 May 2019. According to HKEX disclosure records, Mr. Chen Xiaoliang, the founder and controlling shareholder, voluntarily extended the post-IPO lock-up to three years at the time of listing and, from the IPO through the date of the transfer, has never reduced his personal beneficial shareholding. The 20 September arrangement is therefore the first change in the founder's ownership structure in the seven years since listing — and its direction is unambiguously inward. "This is the clearest possible signal that the controlling shareholder is backing the next chapter of the business rather than exiting it," a Company spokesperson said. "The shares go to an ESOP vehicle, not to the market." After completion, Xiaoliang Holding will remain the controlling shareholder with approximately 31.01%, down from 42.21%. Kewei Holding, which currently holds only 0.17%, will hold approximately 11.38%. A war chest for AI talent Kewei Holding has undertaken to introduce new incentive schemes with vesting and lock-up arrangements under the Company's equity incentive management measures. The stated focus is AI businesses, with AI short drama at the centre. Existing and future awards will be subject to service and performance conditions, aligning key employees with long-term shareholder value. The timing is deliberate. The AI short-drama sector is expanding rapidly, but hits remain scarce: fewer than 0.5% of new AI short dramas on Douyin surpass 100 million views. In that environment, the constraint on growth is not capital — it is the ability to retain writers, algorithm engineers, producers and commercialisation talent capable of turning AI tooling into repeatable hits. By moving roughly 11% of the Company into a locked-up, performance-vested incentive pool, Duiba is, in effect, converting founder ownership into collective engineering and creative capacity. The AI bet is already compounding Duiba was founded in 2014, is headquartered in Hangzhou and listed on HKEX in May 2019. It built its early business on points-and-benefits SaaS and internet advertising, serving more than 16,000 enterprise clients. In late 2025 it moved strategically into AI short drama, building a full-stack pipeline spanning AI scriptwriting, AI production and AI distribution — what the Company describes as the industrialised, scaled monetisation of AI-generated content. Financials: revenue and gross profit rising in tandem The Company's 2026 interim results show that the growth is reaching the income statement, not merely the traffic ledger. For the six months ended 30 June 2026: Metric 1H2026 Change Total revenue RMB 434.7 million +24.3% YoY Gross profit RMB 74.5 million +30.0% YoY Gross margin 17.1% 16.4% (1H2025) Loss attributable to owners RMB 25.3 million narrowed AI short-drama revenue RMB 222.6 million 51.2% of group revenue The Group's traditional SaaS and advertising operations contributed nearly RMB 70 million of gross profit in the first half and are expected to continue providing earnings support, while AI short drama has become the dominant revenue driver. Asset quality also appears intact. The Company reported net assets of RMB 1.175 billion, cash and short-term wealth management products of approximately RMB 400 million, and prepayments of RMB 345 million, largely related to the bank instant-discount business and recyclable into working capital. Why the transfer matters now Three things make the move more than a symbolic gesture. First, it is structurally a gift, not a sale. The nil-consideration transfer means the founder receives no cash. For a controlling shareholder who has not sold a single share in seven years, the decision moves equity from a personal account to a collective one. Second, it arrives at a moment of operational inflection. Douyin rankings, view-count trajectories and the first-half revenue split all point in the same direction: AI short drama has become the core business, and locking talent into it via vesting and lock-ups addresses the binding constraint on its next phase. Third, it creates a credible incentive currency. An ESOP pool of roughly 11.38% is large enough to be material for hires and retention, yet structured with vesting and lock-ups that prevent it from becoming a short-term payout. The road ahead: overseas expansion and the short drama alliance business Duiba's second-half outlook rests on two tracks: AI short-drama expansion and a stable SaaS and advertising base. On the global front, the Company is accelerating its overseas push into a market it estimates at US$4 billion in 2026, up 390% year on year, with management expecting overseas operations to begin contributing revenue in the fourth quarter. Domestically, it is pursuing a strategy of the short drama alliance business,expanding to tens of thousands of app media clients via SDK access. Its distribution footprint extends beyond Toutiao and Hongguo to Tencent, Kuaishou, Baidu and more than 20 mid-tier platforms. This is not a founder exit. It is a founder-to-employee capital allocation: a seven-year holder converting personal ownership into collective incentive capacity at precisely the moment Duiba's AI short-drama business is compounding on both the view-count and income-statement lines.
