Kingsmen Resources Ltd. (TSXV: KNG,OTC:KNGRF) (OTCQB: KNGRF) (FSE: TUY) (‘Kingsmen’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to report first assays from hole LC-25-008 that intersected significant new gold rich silver mineralization. This hole was drilled 160 meters from the previously reported high grade silver discovery of 1,028 gt silver equivalent over 1.45 meters (455 gt silver) from 190.25-191.70m including 1,742 gt silver equivalent over 0.70 meters (770 gt silver) from 190.85- 191.55m in hole LC-25-010 (see news release September of 24, 2025). These holes were drilled as part of the recently completed 12 hole 3,227.2 meter drill program on its 100% owned Las Coloradas silver project. The Las Coloradas project is in the Parral mining district of the Central Mexican Silver Belt, Chihuahua Mexico.

Four Key Highlights:

1. HIGH GRADE SILVER DISCOVERY
   1. * 931 g/t silver equivalent with 1.28 g/t gold over 1.60 meters (521 g/t silver) from 156.4-158.0m.
   2. * Gold rich mineralization.

2. NEW DISCOVERY – WIDE MINERALIZED ZONE
   1. *200 g/t silver equivalent & 0.28 g/t gold over 10.50 meters (97.4 g/t silver) from 154.5-165.0m.
   2. *New silver-gold target.
   3. * Hole drilled 160 meters from high grade hole LC-25-010.

3. SHALLOW, NEAR-SURFACE MINERALIZATION
   1. Mineralization starts at approximately 135 meters vertical depth.
   2. *Multiple mineralization styles including massive sulphides.
   3. * Strong pathfinder elements (antimony, indium, bismuth, and tellurium) indicate larger system.
4. SIGNIFICANT DISCOVERY POTENTIAL
   1. Less than 5% of property explored.
   2. *8.5 km2 consolidated historic mining district.
   3. *Multiple untested structures and veins.
   4. *Located in Mexico’s prolific Parral Silver District.

President, Scott Emerson commented, ‘The gold rich silver mineralization intersected in this hole is an exciting discovery on a previously unknown structure. The mineralized intercepts in this hole and hole LC-25-010 are significantly wider than those historically reported and mined by ASARCO for the Soledad mineralization. This new discovery, potentially adds a 3^rd structure in what is a new area and the gold values significantly enhance the value of the mineralization. This mineralization is believed to be similar to that of the old La Prieta mine whose tailings are being reprocessed at GoGold’s, Parral operation. In addition, it opens the potential for additional significant discoveries in, to-date, untested structures which can be mapped at surface.’

Vice President of Exploration, Kieran Downes Ph.D., P.Geo. noted ‘The property continues to deliver exciting and promising results that show the potential for additional, new high-grade discoveries. There are many kilometers of veins/structures, all of which are prospective especially where dilatant zones for mineralization may be created by changes in attitude, splays, lithologic contacts and intersections. The shape of the mineralization may vary from simple vein to chimney to manto. The role of the intrusion intersected at depth, if any, will be evaluated in conjunction with the receipt of assays.’

Hole LC-25-008 was drilled to test two separate targets.

• Target 1 was the intersection of a NE-trending vein/structure with a flexure/cymoid curve in a NW-trending vein/structure at the margin of a magnetic high (Figures 1 and 2). The flexure is approximately 400 meters long and may have may have created a dilatant zone(s) in Target 1 and beyond. The hole bottomed in intrusive confirming the interpretation of the magnetics. Target 1 returned the significant intersection reported here (Table 1).

• Target 2 was the intersection of NW-trending and NE-trending structures/vein systems, in an area of high chargeability and resistivity, at the margin of a magnetic high/intrusive (Figure 2). Assays are pending.

Hole LC-25-008 (Table 1; Table 2; Table 3) intersected an alteration zone with massive sulphide mineralization from approximately 154.5 to 165.0 meters (10.50 meters) downhole. The silver rich massive sulphide mineralization comprises sphalerite, galena, arsenopyrite, and pyrite (Figure 3 and 4). The mineralization is strongly anomalous in pathfinder elements antimony, bismuth, indium, arsenic and tellurium (Table 1). Silver values vary with galena-sphalerite content. Significant gold is associated with the high-grade silver mineralization and varies with the arsenopyrite content. Of note is the presence of associated elevated to anomalous tellurium, a significant indicator of gold mineralization. The mineralization exhibits late-stage faulting and brecciation. The hole bottomed in a fine to medium grained feldspar porphyry carrying disseminated pyrite confirming the interpretation of the magnetics.

The mineralized zone has a brecciated section from 155.95 to 157.0 meters composed of translucent quartz veins, white quartz, and masses of sulfides arranged in a stockwork. Sphalerite predominates with pyrite, smaller amounts of galena and arsenopyrite are also present. Arsenopyrite predominates in the quartz veining. From 157.0 to 158.45 m, there is a cavity with clusters of arsenopyrite, pyrite, galena, sphalerite and druses with prismatic quartz and possibly jamesonite crystals. The host rocks are sediments displaying moderate shear deformation, intense green chloritic alteration and silicification.

Table 2 Silver equivalents

The silver equivalent calculation formula is AgEq(g/t) = ((Ag grade (g/t) x (Ag price per ounce/31.10348) x Ag recovery) + (Pb grade (%) x (Pb price per tonne/100) x Pb recovery) + (Zn grade (%) x (Zn price per tonne/100) x Zn recovery) + (Au grade (g/t) x (Au price per ounce/31.10348) x Au recovery)) / (Ag price per ounce/31.10348 x Ag recovery). The prices used were US$3675/oz gold, US$2960/t zinc, US$2003/t lead and US$42/oz silver. Recoveries are estimated at 40% for gold, 91% for lead, 85% for zinc and 92% for silver based on published figures by Kootenay Silver Inc. for sulphide mineralization in the Cigarra deposit, Chihuahua, Mexico, a deposit with similar style mineralization (https://kootenaysilver.com/news/kootenay/2024/kootenay-silver-announces-updated-mineral-resource-estimate-for-la-cigarra-project-chihuahua-mexico).

Cassiar Gold Corp. (TSXV: GLDC,OTC:CGLCF) (OTCQX: CGLCF) (the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce results from nine initial diamond drill holes of the 2025 exploration program at the Taurus Deposit, which is located within the Cassiar Gold Project, in northern British Columbia. Results from these drill holes demonstrate potential for ongoing expansion of near-surface mineralization along key structural trends and increase the population of high-grade, visible gold-bearing veins at the deposit. The 2025 drill program comprised 7,308 meters (m) over 20 drill holes and concluded in early October. Results are pending for 5,243 m of drilling over 11 drill holes from the Newcoast regional prospect which lies 2 kilometers (km) to the south.

Highlights:

Drill holes from the Taurus deposit reported here encountered significant intercepts above the 0.4 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) cutoff of the 2025 Mineral Resource at Taurus^[1], with repeated occurrence of high-grade samples hosted within broader mineralized intervals. Results expand mineralization near surface and beyond the extent of the current resource block model.

Drilling intercepts are uncapped unless otherwise stated and represent apparent widths of mineralized zones. A full summary of the latest results can be found in Table 1, and include:

• Drill hole 25TA-245 encountered multiple quartz veins with visible gold, returning:
  • 13.4 m of 13.4 g/t Au (2.05 g/t Au capped) from 28.2 m downhole in drill hole 25TA-245, including:
    • 56.10 g/t Au over 0.3 m, and
    • 210.71 g/t Au over 0.8 m, with 0.4 m of 369.00 g/t Au

• Drill hole 25TA-242:
  • 21.9 m of 2.81 g/t Au (2.80 g/t Au capped) from 45.8 m downhole, including:
    • 9.41 g/t Au over 1.5 m,
    • 5.41 g/t Au over 2.7 m, and
    • 6.90 g/t Au over 2.3 m, with 0.30 m of 20.30 g/t Au

• Drill hole 25TA-238:
  • 21.7 m of 1.30 g/t Au from 13.1 m down hole, including
    • 8.1 m of 2.18 g/t Au and 0.9 m of 5.11 g/t Au
  • 11.3 m of 1.21 g/t Au, including
    • 0.6 m of 8.33 g/t Au, and 0.8 m of 7.38 g/t Au
  • 0.9 m of 27.18 g/t Au (9.63 g/t Au capped), including 59.50 g/t Au

• Drill hole 25TA-239:
  • 7.56 g/t Au over 2.0 m, including 0.4 m of 19.55 g/t Au and 0.8 m of 9.14 g/t Au

‘Our exploration programs demonstrate the Cassiar Gold Project holds meaningful potential as a gold resource expansion opportunity in an important region in British Columbia,’ stated Marco Roque, President and Chief Executive Officer of Cassiar Gold. ‘Confirming continuity and establishing extensions of near-surface higher-grade mineralization in the Taurus East, Southwest, and Sable areas demonstrates that this well-established foundational resource can continue to grow.’

‘Our drilling continues to delineate and extend new higher-grade trends within and adjacent to the Taurus deposit,’ stated Jill Maxwell, VP Exploration of Cassiar Gold. ‘We continue to intersect visible gold in structures across the deposit, with opportunity to identify new trends and advance higher-grade domains along-strike and down-dip in future programs. The results from Taurus East are particularly encouraging as we continue to evaluate the emerging volume potential at recently established satellite zones in the resource area, within the footprint of the existing mine permit.’

Taurus Deposit

The Taurus Deposit hosts a recently updated substantial near-surface, bulk-tonnage gold resource comprising an Indicated Mineral Resource of 8.8 million tonnes at 1.43 g/t Au for 410,000 ounces; with an additional Inferred Mineral Resource of 63.2 million ounces at 0.95 g/t Au for 1.93 million ounces^[1], which remains open for expansion. Mineralization outcrops in places, with 91% of the ounces in the resource occurring within 150 m of surface. Ongoing expansion of the deposit footprint and follow up to recently identified higher grades trends remained a priority during the 2025 exploration campaign. A total of nine drill holes were completed at the Taurus deposit this season.

2025 Taurus Drill Holes

The drilling results reported in this news release are from nine drill holes totaling 2,066 m which tested the outer margins of the known extents of the Taurus deposit. Drilling was distributed across a 1.3-kilometer corridor of the deposit footprint to evaluate the expansion potential of mineralization beyond the block model with step outs ranging from 30 m up to 110 m. The program also followed up to recently identified quartz veins hosting higher grade gold mineralization along key controlling structural trends (Figure 1). Several higher-grade sample intervals were intersected internal to broader mineralized intercepts (Table 1). These extend the distribution of near-surface mineralization south, east, and west of previous drilling along an extensive east-northeast striking corridor of sheeted extensional vein sets within an associated prospective, Au-bearing carbonate-pyrite alteration halo.

Taurus East: drill holes 25TA-243 through 25TA-246

Drill hole 25TA-245 (west-oriented), aimed to evaluate the potential to expand the footprint of the 2025 resource model toward surface through testing potential parallel veins and interpreted extensions of mineralized veining. Drill holes 25TA-243, -244, and -246 (northwest oriented) were designed to test the potential for parallel sets, as well as extensions of veins along-strike and down-dip to the east, west, and south beyond the extent of the 2025 block model.

All of these drill holes returned gold-mineralized intercepts, including 25TA-245 which encountered high grade samples with visible gold hosted within broader intervals. These drill holes collectively expand the footprint of known mineralization near-surface and along strike to the south, west, and east beyond the extend of the 2025 block model. Results include (Table 1; Figures 2,3,4):

• Drill hole 25TA-245 encountered multiple specks of visible gold, returning:
  • 13.4 m of 13.53 g/t Au (2.05 g/t Au capped) from 28.2 m downhole, including
    • 0.3 m of 56.10 g/t Au, and
    • 0.8 m of 210.71 g/t Au with 0.4 m of 369.00 g/t Au,

• 27.3 m of 0.65 g/t Au from 88.4 m downhole, including 1.1 m of 4.42 g/t Au with 0.6 m of 6.01 g/t Au in hole 25TA-244, and
• 3.6 m of 1.48 g/t Au from 61.2 m downhole, including 0.5 m of 7.08 g/t Au in 25TA-243.

Sable: drill holes 25TA-242, -240

Drill hole 25TA-242 (south-oriented) was designed to test an eastward extension of a higher-grade domain of mineralized quartz veining by evaluating the potential influence of an interpreted discrete northeast target plane previously untested at this locale. Drill hole 25TA-240 (southwest-oriented) aimed to test for down dip extensions of known mineralization at Sable.

Mineralization was encountered at the interpreted extensions of mineralized trends at Sable, beyond the extent of the current resource block model. Results include (Table 1; Figure 3):

• Multiple intercepts returned in hole 25TA-242:
  • 21.9 m of 2.81 g/t Au (2.80 g/t Au capped) from 45.8 m downhole, including
    • 1.5 m of 9.41 g/t Au, and
    • 2.7 m of 5.41 g/t Au with 0.4 m of 8.01 g/t Au,
    • also including 0.6 m of 7.35 g/t Au, and
    • 2.3 m of 6.90 g/t Au with 0.3 m of 20.30 g/t Au;
  • 16.0 m of 0.84 g/t Au from 123.0 m downhole, including 3.1 m of 2.72 g/t Au with 0.5 m of 6.12 g/t Au

• 9.8 m of 1.08 g/t Au from 70.5 m downhole, including 0.5 m of 6.79 g/t Au in hole 25TA-240

Taurus Southwest and Central: drill holes 25TA-238, -239, -241

Drill hole 25TA-238 and 25TA-239 (north-oriented) were designed as follow up to expansion holes from the 2024 drill program which encountered intervals of higher-grade mineralization and visible gold within broader intercepts, such as drill hole 24TA-236 with 184.50 g/t Au over 0.3 m nested in a broader intercept of 3.18 g/t Au over 21.9 m (see NEWS RELEASE, January 16, 2025), while 25TA-241 was designed to test for parallel vein sets to the south of the 2025 Taurus resource.

All drill holes from the Southwest and Central areas returned gold-mineralized intercepts, including 25TA-238 which encountered high grade mineralization with visible gold hosted within a broader interval. Results include (Table 1; Figure 4,5):

• Drill hole 25TA-238:
  • 21.7 m of 1.30 g/t Au from 13.1 m downhole, including 8.1 m of 2.18 g/t Au and 0.9 m of 5.11 g/t Au
  • 11.3 m of 1.21 g/t Au from 101.4 m downhole, including 0.6 m of 8.33 g/t Au and 0.8 m of 7.38 g/t Au
  • 0.9 m of 27.18 g/t Au (9.63 g/t Au capped) from 148.9 m downhole, including 0.4 m of 59.50 g/t Au with visible gold

Summary

Drilling at the Taurus deposit continues to demonstrate potential for ongoing expansion of near-surface mineralization along the main east-northeast striking sheeted vein sets than defined by the 2025 mineral resource estimate. Drill holes reported here increase the population of high-grade, visible gold-bearing veins at the deposit, such as drill hole 25TA-245 which delivered 0.3 m grading 56.10 g/t Au and 0.4 m grading 369.00 g/t, and hole 25TA-238 with 59.50 g/t over 0.4 m, nested in broader intercepts (Table 1). The technical team continues to evaluate the distribution of these higher-grade results to refine target interpretations to support future programs and regional targeting efforts.

Nine Mile Metals LTD. (CSE: NINE,OTC:VMSXF) (OTC Pink: VMSXF) (FSE: KQ9) (the ‘Company’ or ‘Nine Mile’) is pleased to announce that the 2nd drill hole in its Wedge Western Extension Drill Program (DDH-WD-25-02) has been completed and is in progress on its 3RD hole (DDH-WD-25-02B).

• DDH WD-25-02 was collared on the same drill pad as WD-25-01 and drilled at an azimuth of 310 degrees and a dip of -50 degrees to intersect the first plate approximately 50 meters west of Hole WD-25-01, increasing the mineralized zone along strike, to the west. (Figure 3). The hole completed at 203m at depth.
• DDH WD-25-02 was successful, intersecting massive copper bearing sulphides (VMS — Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag-Au).
• Massive copper bearing sulphides (VMS — Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag-Au) were found associated with the contact breccia at 139m depth with a second zone of massive copper bearing sulphides (VMS — Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag-Au) intersected at 155 meters, having an approximate true width of 20 meters.
• The sulphide mineralogy in WD-25-02 is readily visible, especially the massive copper mineralization, as shown in Figures 1 & 2. Chalcopyrite (CuFeS₂) occurs as masses, streaks and blebs while more local Pb-Zn mineralization is well banded with sphalerite (Zn) the dominant sulphide. Local bornite (Cu₅FeS₄) and Covellite (CuS) is visibly present, the bornite displays its characteristic ‘Purple Peacock Copper Bloom’ and Covellite its ‘Blue Copper’, as seen in Figure 1.
• All drill core has been measured, logged, photographed, marked and cut for sampling at the company’s warehouse in Bathurst, New Brunswick. A quick XRF analysis was also completed for sulphide confirmation – filtering and width identification in definition for sampling core for Actlabs Analysis. A total of 55 sections have been identified for Base and Precious Metals analysis, including Antimony, for Actlabs, Fredericton, New Brunswick.

Gary Lohman, VP Exploration, Director, stated, ‘We are pleased with our technical preparation of this drill program and quality of our Lens targeting. The western extension of this deposit is robust and copper rich. Very positive to confirm the thickness of this plate intersection as we stepped approximately 50m west of DDH-WD-25-01. Our data modelling suggests a 3^rd potential Zone of mineralization which Mike Dufresne of Apex Geoscience is modeling and designing (2) potential Drill holes to test that prospective Zone from the western flank area, thus avoiding a sheer zone from the south. We look forward to moving to the Northwest area of this extension program.’

Patrick J. Cruickshank, MBA, CEO & Director, stated, ‘Once again, we have intersected quality mineralization at the desired Target Plates at DDH-25-02, as designed and set out by our Technical Team. The visible mineralization and copper rich sulphides is just spectacular. The presence of Bornite and Covellite is a strong indicator of the quality of this deposit. This western flank area is being confirmed as a rich Copper Lens, one hole at a time. We are on track to increase the Wedge Mine’s mineralized footprint to the west and at depth. The next drill hole in our campaign is DDH-WD-25-02B, which is underway and we look forward to sharing our next summary update shortly.’

Saga Metals Corp. (‘SAGA’ or the ‘Company’) (TSXV: SAGA,OTC:SAGMF) (OTCQB: SAGMF) (FSE: 20H) a North American exploration company advancing critical mineral discoveries, is pleased to announce the successful completion of the first phase of drilling in the Trapper Zone’s northern section (‘Trapper North’) including four drill holes over 1,073 m and has initiated phase 2 in the south (‘Trapper South’) including two drill holes over 445 m completed to date. Phase 1 and 2 drill holes have intercepted and confirmed extensive oxide mineralization over 1.5 km of the 3+ km strike within the Radar Project’s Trapper Zone.

Highlights

• R-0008, -0009 and -0010 on Drill Section N-11 transected the magnetic anomaly and demonstrated a likely structural repetition of the cumulate oxide layers dominated by semi-massive to massive cumulate oxides, confirming the strong magnetic response.
• R-0008: Comprising semi-massive to massive oxide mineralization, with a cumulative total of 156 m of core length.
• R-0009: Over half the length of the hole intersected semi-massive to massive oxide layering, with a cumulative total of 165 m of core length.
• R-0010: Was drilled off the same drill pad as R-0009 to test the NE limb of the fold. R-0010 contained a cumulative core intercept of 139.5 m of semi-massive to massive oxides, as well as 11.5 m of intercumulus oxide in 251 m of coring.
• R-0011 : Intersected equal portions of semi-massive to massive cumulate oxides and intercumulus oxides. Importantly, the drilling encountered a separate unit of rhythmic banded oxide mineralization.
• R-0012 & R-0013: Are the first two drill holes of the initial cross section in Trapper South and contains rhythmic oxide layering and further confirms oxide mineralization over 1.5 km of the 3+ km strike within the Trapper Zone.

Drill Hole Program Details

Phase 1 of drilling in the Trapper North Zone targets a strong magnetic anomaly delineated in the 2025 ground geophysical survey. The anomaly traces the shape of an apparent fold structure. Drilling fences are oriented to cross the fold structure at right angles, with drilling directions of mostly N038°E. A total of 1,073 m of drilling has been completed in four diamond drill holes. Phase 2 is focused on Trapper South and will concentrate on multiple fences through the magnetic anomalies. A total of 445 m has been completed in two diamond drill holes thus far.

Drilling is conducted with oriented drill core to provide definitive structural information. Dr. Boukare Tapsoba, of Cambria Geological Inc., is attending the first phase of drilling to establish robust protocols for documenting the magmatic layering, folding and mylonitic shearing.

• R-0008 (Azimuth 38°, Dip -45°, EOH 272 m) , was collared in the SW limb of a large fold closure in gabbronorite in Trapper North. Over half the length of the hole passed through intervals of semi-massive to massive oxide mineralization, with a cumulative total of 156 m out of 272 m of core length.
• R-0009 (Azimuth 38°, Dip -45°, EOH 299 m) , tested the remainder of the Trapper North fold structure. The drill hole was collared to intercept the NE limb of the fold and to complete the cross-section started with R-0008. Over half the length of the hole intersected semi-massive to massive oxide layering, with a cumulative total of 165 m out of 299 m of core length.
• R-0010 (Azimuth 0°, Dip -45°, EOH 251 m) , was drilled off the same drill pad as R-0009 to verify the most appropriate angle for drilling the NE limb of the fold. Additionally, this hole provides a control for understanding the structural position of a mylonitic shear that occupies the fold’s axial plane. R-0010 contained a cumulative core intercept of 139.5 m of semi-massive to massive oxides, as well as 11.5 m of intercumulus oxide in 251 m of coring.
• R-0011 (Azimuth 0°, Dip -45°, EOH 251 m), the fourth drill hole in Trapper North was a 100 m step out to the east from R-0009 & R-0010. The hole successfully demonstrated the continuity of the semi-massive to massive layering while also intersecting a unit of Rhythmic Magnetite layering, similar to the holes drilled in Hawkeye in Q1 of 2025. R-0011 intercepted a cumulative interval of 58.3 meters of semi-massive to massive oxide, 27.39 meters of intercumulus and 52.12 meters of rhythmic magnetite banding.

Drilling on Section N-11, in diamond drill holes R-0008, -0009, and -0010, demonstrated variations in the structural attitude that map an open anticline in the semi-massive to massive oxides. The exceptional thickness of the oxide units on Section N-11 is partly due to the structural repetition of the units. A mylonitic shear zone occupies the axial plane of the fold. Significantly, this drilling tested both the SW and NE limbs of the fold structure and was dominated by semi-massive to massive cumulate oxides, confirming the strong magnetic response. Assays are pending.

Drill Core Sample Update

Saga Metals has successfully shipped the first 420 core samples from the Fall 2025 Drill Program. A close sample spacing of 0.5 to 1.0 m was used in the Hawkeye zone Q1 drill program of 2025. After reviewing the assay results on that zone, the team has reduced the sampling interval to 2.0 m.

The first 420 samples include 202 from the complete R-0008 drill hole and 218 from the complete R-0009 drill hole. These samples were shipped at the start of this week and are expected to arrive by the end of the week, with assay results available within 3 to 4 weeks.

Figure 5: Geologists Boukare Tapsoba, Grace Mombourquette and Katie Ward in the core shack. Both the drillers and geologists have benefited from competent ‘stick’ rock, as seen in the core held up by Boukare Tapsoba.

Next Steps

Drill has successfully moved from Trapper North to Trapper South and has begun drilling a four-hole section across the linear magnetic anomalies with the zone. R-0012 and R-0013 are completed, and Gladiator Drilling has successfully moved the drill shack to the site of R-0014 with drilling already underway.

With the same concept of the first four holes in the North, drilling in the South will concentrate on multiple fences through the magnetic anomalies to allow Saga’s geological team to best understand and plan for the remainder of the mineral resource estimate drill program that will continue in Q1 of 2026.

‘Saga Metals Radar Project, Fall 2025 Drill Program is aggressively testing for the presence of, and continuity of layered magnetite mineralization that has been defined by their recent ground magnetic surveys. Their targeting of fold noses is logical, and their use of oriented core to define layering attitudes and facing directions will greatly aid their geological interpretation of these large, property-scale folded formations. Their early use of structural geological expertise is well thought out and will be of great value in the definition of this emerging layered mafic intrusive complex,’ commented Vernon Shein, former B2Gold Executive & Advisory Board Member of Saga Metals.

Drill Program Objectives:

The Phase 1 Trapper Zone drill campaign will target:

• Grade continuity across a 3 km strike length.
• Oxide layering widths and continuity to true depths of about 200 meters.
• Integration of structural insights from trenching and drilling into collar orientation and drill design.
• Initial drilling of ~2,000 meters in 8 holes, each averaging about 250 m in depth, will be completed before the December break.
• Test both the North and South sections of the Trapper zone before the seasonal break to fully determine grades, widths and structures before initiating the detailed grid and drill sections in 2026 for a mineral resource estimate.
• Drilling will be complemented by metallurgical sampling through the winter, with core from both the Hawkeye and Trapper zones undergoing detailed metallurgical testing.

The Trapper Trail (in black) will be the target of the planned 15,000 m diamond drilling program aimed at establishing Saga’s maiden mineral resource estimation.

The Radar Property spans 24,175 hectares and hosts the entire Dykes River intrusive complex (~160 km²), a unique position among Western explorers. Geological mapping, geophysics, and trenching have already confirmed oxide layering across more than 20 km of strike length, with mineralization open for expansion.

Vanadiferous titanomagnetite (‘VTM’) mineralization at Radar is comparable to global Fe–Ti–V systems such as Panzhihua (China), Bushveld (South Africa), and Tellnes (Norway), positioning the Project as a potential strategic future supplier of titanium, vanadium, and iron to North American markets.

Figure 7: Radar Project’s prospective oxide layering zone extends for an inferred 20 km strike length, as shown on a compilation of historical airborne geophysics as well as ground-based geophysics in the Hawkeye and Trapper zones completed by SAGA in the 2024/2025 field programs. SAGA has demonstrated the reliability of the regional airborne magnetic surveys after ground-truthing and drilling in the 2024 and 2025 field programs .

Vancouver, British Columbia TheNewswire – December 3rd, 2025 Prismo Metals Inc. (‘ Prismo ‘ or the ‘ Company ‘) (CSE: PRIZ,OTC:PMOMF) (OTCQB: PMOMF) is pleased to announce it has received assay results for samples recently taken at the Silver King Project from two exploration targets located on the east side of the property, namely the Black Diamond replacement target and the newly named Crown porphyry intrusion target (Fig. 1).

Figure 1 .  Map showing the location of the Black Diamond replacement and Crown porphyry intrusion exploration targets at the Silver King project.  Claim boundaries are shown in yellow.

The assays show high grade copper mineralization present at Black Diamond (Fig 1). The rock chip samples yielded generally high copper assays with several samples analyzing in excess of 1 % Cu and two samples in excess of 5 % Cu (Table 1, Fig. 2).  Gold is generally anomalous for the Black Diamond samples.

Rock chip samples from the Crown porphyry intrusion generally exhibited lead and zinc values with elevated silver and low copper and gold (Table 2).  Importantly, however, two samples of vein material from the stockwork target yielded high gold values of 4 and 5 g/t (Fig. 2). The mineralization in the stockwork veining at Crown provides impetus to complete additional exploration in the area.

The Company also has received the report for initial phase of its IP survey at Silver King.  The IP survey consisted of a gradient array to test for resistivity and chargeability anomalies at a depth of about 300m below the surface.

The IP survey shows low resistivity lows associated with the Black Diamond replacement body as well as the stratigraphically controlled Cu bearing replacements that extend toward the nearby Magma mine (Fig. 3).  A second nearly east-west trending resistivity low occurs in the central portion of the claim block and coincides with a hypothesized structure that may control the Black Diamond body and also may be important in the formation of the Silver King deposit.  This type of structure is similar to the Magma vein, the main mineralized structure at the high-grade Magma mine, and is a prime exploration target.

The IP survey also shows several chargeability anomalies that are presumably associated with disseminated sulfides, largely pyrite (Fig. 4).  The stockwork intrusion mentioned previously is associated with one of these chargeability anomalies and provides a second important exploration target with characteristics similar to mineralization at high structural levels in porphyry systems.  A second similar chargeability anomaly occurs nearby to the southwest in an area overlain by a mostly barren quartz diorite intrusive and may represent a similar blind porphyry target.

Based on the results of the initial IP survey, a follow-up pole-dipole survey to further define the anomalies from shallow to deeper levels along section lines is planned to be conducted in December.

Drilling Update

Alain Lambert, CEO of Prismo commented: ‘The results announced today confirm the vast exploration potential at Silver King. While we look forward to drilling these new targets in the future, our plans remain unchanged. Our immediate priority is to undertake our fully funded drill program, as previously announced. This drill campaign will focus primarily on the historic Silver King mine site and will be for a minimum of about 1,000 meters. The objective is to test the upper half of the steeply dipping pipelike Silver King mineralized body as well as potential mineralization adjacent to the dense stockwork that was the focus of historic mining.’

Mr. Lambert added: ‘We are pleased with the steady progress on the permitting front. The collaboration of Forest Service officials demonstrates a clear commitment to supporting mining activities in Arizona.’

Prismo recently announced that the Forest Service, the federal surface land management entity for Silver King, had determined that the Company’s proposed drill plan meets the regulatory requirements for processing, and that such plan is complete, as described in the regulations at 36 CFR 228.4(c).

The Forest Service will now proceed with the environmental analysis pursuant to 36 CFR 228(a)(5) in conformity with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). This analysis will proceed as a Categorical Exclusion, the lowest level of environment reviews applicable to projects that are not expected to have a significant effect on the environment, such as Silver King.

Financing Update

Prismo also announced that further to its news releases dated October 20, 2025 and November 13, 2025, the Company has proceeded with an upsized second closing of its previously announced non-brokered private placement of units of the Company (‘ Units ‘) at an issue price of $0.10 per Unit (the ‘ Private Placement ‘). The second closing of the Private Placement was increased from 1,250,000 Units to the issuance of 1,650,000 Units for gross proceeds of $165,000 (the ‘ Second Tranche ‘). The Company previously announced a first closing of the Private Placement on November 12, 2025 for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,745,000. Due to strong investor demand, the Company has now raised aggregate gross proceeds of $1,910,000.

Each Unit consists of one common share in the capital of the Company (a ‘ Share ‘) and one common share purchase warrant of the Company (a ‘ Warrant ‘). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Share for a period of thirty-six (36) months from the date of issue at an exercise price of $0.175.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Private Placement primarily for drilling at its Silver King project and for general corporate purposes. The Company expects to accept additional subscriptions of units in the coming days for an approximate amount of $125,000.

The Units issued pursuant to the Second Tranche are subject to a four-month hold period from the closing date of the Second Tranche under applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada.

In connection with the Second Tranche, the Company issued an aggregate of 68,000 finder’s warrants (the ‘Finder’s Warrants’ ) and paid finder’s commissions of $6,800 to a certain qualified finder. Each Finder’s Warrant is exercisable for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of issuance to purchase one Share at a price of $0.10. In addition, the Company paid a cash fee of $2,000 to a financial advisor.

The securities being issued in connection with the Second Tranche have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States, or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons or persons in the United States, absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
