West High Yield (W.H.Y.) Resources Ltd. to provide an update on the status of its permit application at its Record Ridge magnesium deposit located 10 kilometers southwest of Rossland, British Columbia ("Record Ridge" or the "Project") and on the progress of the pre-feasibility study ("PFS") semi- commercial/commercial plant design and its updated economics. The Company further updates the progress and status of its nearby Midnight Gold drilling program (the "Midnight Gold Drilling Program"). The Company continues to work with SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. and Greenwood Environmental Inc. (together, the "Consultants") in pursuit of the industrial mineral mine permit (the "Permit") at Record Ridge.

The Consultants assisted the Company in the submission of its Permit to the British Columbia Ministry of Mines (the "Ministry") in February 2019. In July of 2022, the Ministry requested as part of the Permit application screening process, additional geotechnical work to characterize the foundation conditions at the proposed waste rock storage facility, soil stockpile, and sediment pond, as well as to characterize soil conditions and the overburden thickness along the crest of the quarry. The test pit field investigation was completed in August and September, and the results are currently used by SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. to complete (i) detailed design drawings (issued-for- construction ready) for the sedimentation pond and associated ditches (clean and contact water), and (ii) an operations, maintenance, and surveillance manual as required by the Ministry.

Results are expected within weeks. The Ministry has established a multi-step permit review process where major issues are identified upfront, followed by a detailed review. To date, the Company has complied with and delivered all information for requests from the Ministry and continues in compliance with the Permit process as outlined and under the timeline given by the Ministry in order to ensure that the Permit will be timely issued and approved.
