Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 16, 2025) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQB: RMRDF) (FSE: 2RX) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it will expand the ongoing step-out exploration drill program at the O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") to 140,000 metres utilizing up to eight drill rigs. The expanded program aims to build upon recent successes in delineating new high-grade gold mineralization outside the scope of the Project's current Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"). This will be the largest drill program in the history of the Project.Matt Manson, President & CEO, commented: "Following the recent completion of our very successful $25 million financing (see Radisson news release dated October 7, 2025), we are announcing a major increase in scope and ambition to our exploration drill program at O'Brien. Since late last year we have been demonstrating significant new gold mineralization in "proof-of-concept" drilling beneath the current mineral resources and below the historic mine workings (Figure 1). Our Exploration Target at O'Brien is between 3 and 4 million ounces of gold in 15 to 20 million tonnes at between 4.5 and 8.0 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au")1. This is based on the proposition that O'Brien's mesothermal gold mineralization continues to an exploration horizon of at least 2 kilometres depth. With recent results supporting this thesis, we now intend to accelerate our efforts with a view to meaningful resource growth at the Project. The new expanded program of 140,000 metres will continue through 2026 with up to 8 drill rigs, generating significant new data, updates to the Project's MRE, and regular news flow."Matt Manson continued: "The recently completed O'Brien Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") describes a high value project based on the use of neighbouring milling facilities for the processing of mined material, reducing capital costs, development risk, and project footprint (see Radisson news release dated July 9, 2025). It also represents a moment-in-time "snap-shot" for the Project utilizing the pre-existing MRE, which is located primarily at depths above 600 metres and based on drilling completed to the end of 2022. Our objective by the end of this new and aggressive drill program will be to demonstrate full potential scope of the Project." Step-Out Drilling at O'BrienSince late 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 full scope of mineralization at the Project to a 2-kilometre deep exploration floor. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. The first pilot hole drilled beneath the historic mine workings of the O'Brien mine intersected 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres, including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth, 500 metres below the final mining stope.Figure 1: Long Section of Gold Vein Mineralization and Mineral Resources at the O'Brien Gold Project, with Deep Step-Out Drill Holes Completed and/or Published to Date. To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/270643_d9c3a9f0f4fee970_002full.jpgAssay results from 7 wedges from this pilot holes have now been reported (see Radisson news release dated July 16, 2025) and up to six high-grade, gold-bearing veins have been delineated over an area of approximately 250 metres (east-west) by 250 metres (vertical). Assay results from additional wedges are expected shortly. Step-out drilling with wedge extensions has also confirmed high-grade mineralization 170 metres below the base of the existing mineral resources at Trend #1 and up to 300 metres below previous drill intercepts at Trend #2 (see Radisson news release dated September 8, 2025).By the end of 2025, Radisson expects to have completed approximately 35,000 metres of a 50-60,000 metre drill program originally announced in May 2025 (see Radisson news release dated May 21, 2025). With the new drilling announced today, the total meters drilled in this ongoing step-out program will increase to 140,000 metres. This will incorporate an expansion of site facilities and personnel to support up to 8 drill rigs from the current four. These rigs have already been secured under the terms of engagement with our existing drill contractor. The first additional drill rig has been mobilized to site, with drilling expected to start prior to the end of this month.Targeting priorities will be developed dynamically based on results, but will include: (a) multiple pilot-holes and wedge clusters beneath the historic mine to 2 kilometres depth, (b) pilot holes and wedges testing the deep extensions of Trends #0, #1 and #2, (c) testing for mineralization between Trends #1 and #2, and (d) testing the extension of gold mineralization beneath the historic Thompson-Cadillac mine located west of the O'Brien Mine.Updated Mineral Resource EstimatesThe MRE utilized in the recent O'Brien PEA comprises Indicated Mineral Resources of 0.58 million ounces (2.20 million tonnes at 8.2 g/t Au) and Inferred Mineral Resources of 0.93 million ounces (6.67 million tonnes at 4.4 g/t Au). Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. This MRE, effective as of May 6, 2025, is based on 325,509 metres of drilling completed to the end of 2022. By the end of the currently scheduled drill program a significant amount of new drilling will have been completed, the larger part being outside the scope of the current MRE and recent PEA mine design. This is expected to merit multiple updates to the O'Brien MRE as the drilling progresses.Gold Mineralization at O'BrienGold mineralizing quartz-sulphide veins at O'Brien occur within a thin band of interlayered mafic volcanic rocks, conglomerates, and porphyritic andesitic sills of the Piché Group occurring in contact with the east-west oriented Larder Lake-Cadillac Break ("LLCB"). 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 the metre-scale in thickness. 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 near-vertical, high-grade shoots developed over significant lengths. Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focussed on a main central stope and parallel veins identified but left undeveloped.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 to the east of the historic mine, with additional high-grade shoots becoming evident in the exploration data over what has been described as a series of repeating trends ("Trend #s 0 to 5").Qualified Persons Disclosure of a scientific or technical nature in this news release was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Richard Nieminen, P.Geo, (QC), a geological consultant for Radisson and a Qualified Person for purposes of NI 43-101. Mr. Luke Evans, M.Sc., P.Eng., ing, of SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd., is the Qualified Person responsible for the preparation of the MRE at O'Brien. Each of Mr. Nieminen and Mr. Evans is independent of Radisson and the O'Brien Gold Project.About Radisson MiningRadisson is a gold exploration company focused on its 100% owned O'Brien Gold Project, located in the Bousquet-Cadillac mining camp along the world-renowned Larder-Lake-Cadillac Break in Abitibi, Québec. A July 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment described a low cost and high value project with an 11-year mine life and significant upside potential based on the use of existing regional infrastructure. Indicated Mineral Resources are estimated at 0.58 million ounces (2.20 million tonnes at 8.2 g/t Au), with additional Inferred Mineral Resources estimated at 0.93 million ounces (6.67 million tonnes at 4.4 g/t Au).

How DPC Dash-Domino’s Pizza China Is Capturing China’s Pizza Market

10/15/2025

HONG KONG, Oct 16, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In China's dynamic and rapidly expanding pizza market, DPC Dash Ltd - Domino’s Pizza China (1405.HK), Domino's Pizza's exclusive master franchisee in the Chinese Mainland, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China, and the Macau Special Administrative Region of China—has established a sustainable growth strategy suited to varying economic conditions. By integrating continuous menu innovation with strategic value pricing, the company has expanded its footprint to 1,283 stores across 51 cities in the Chinese Mainland as of September 30, 2025.Scale as Strategic AdvantageBeing a market leader creates a virtuous cycle. DPC Dash opened 275 net new stores and entered 12 new cities as of the third quarter of 2025. Management expects to open approximately 300 stores in 2025, supported by a secured pipeline that represents approximately 100% of the 2025 target including the stores opened, under construction and signed. With China's pizza market expected to reach RMB 77.1 billion by 2027, the runway for expansion remains substantial.Same-store sales growth (SSSG) at the Group level and in Tier-1 cities was positive as of September 30, 2025, reflecting resilient performance and brand recognition in highly competitive markets. The company holds 49 of the top 50 positions globally for first 30-day sales performance, with new stores continuously breaking records. The first Shenyang location surpassed RMB 31 million in annual sales in just 198 days of operation. The first store in Xuzhou generated over RMB 680,000 for the grand opening day, setting a new global record.Scale enables DPC Dash to invest in menu development and testing, maintain brand visibility through sustained marketing, and weather volatility through diverse revenue streams. The company's advanced digital infrastructure further amplifies these advantages.Strategic Emphasis on ValueWhile menu novelty attracts attention, value pricing drives traffic—especially in periods of moderated consumer spending. DPC Dash has effectively positioned itself in the affordable quick-service dining segment through its three pricing tiers, targeted promotions, bundled deals, and campaigns that resonate with the preferences of value-conscious consumers in China.Financial performance reinforces this approach. In the first half of 2025, DPC Dash generated RMB 2.59 billion in revenue while improving profitability metrics across the board. Store-level operating profit margin reached 14.6%, and adjusted EBITDA margin hit 12.4%—demonstrating that a value-led approach does not preclude strong margins when supported by operational discipline.This emphasis on affordability creates a countercyclical shield. When economic conditions soften, consumers trading down from more expensive dining options turn to affordable quick-service brands. The company’s scale and operational efficiencies enable it to maintain attractive pricing, allowing DPC Dash to gain market share during challenging cycles.Menu Innovation Aligned with Local TastesValue alone is not sufficient to secure long-term loyalty. DPC Dash complements its pricing strategy with continuous menu innovation tailored to local preferences. The company's localization efforts go far beyond standard offerings: durian pizzas featuring Dubai chocolate and rambutan, and creative products like the "Cocoa & Cheese Stuffed Crust" with Malaysian cocoa powder and French cheese sauce.Such localization allows DPC Dash to compete effectively by understanding domestic preferences. Balancing global brand standards with local relevance has helped the company grow its loyalty program membership to 32.9 million members, an increase of more than 50% year-over-year as of September 30, 2025. Insights drawn from the program inform more targeted product development and promotional strategies.Menu variety serves multiple strategic purposes: it drives repeat visits among existing customers, attracts different demographic segments, and creates reasons to order more frequently. New product introductions help maintain customer engagement and expand the brand’s reach to a broader audience.The proven formula of scalable store expansion, strategic value pricing, and data-driven menu localization validates the strength of DPC Dash's business model. This approach fuels robust financial performance and record-breaking store openings, creating a durable competitive advantage. As the market continues to grow, DPC Dash is exceptionally well-positioned to deliver sustainable long-term value and market leadership. Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
