Highlights (all intersections are in core lengths) – Intersections in the open-pit area: Hole ZG-RC-25-478 intercepted 677 g/t silver over 15.0 metres, including 2,138 g/t Ag over 3.0 metres. Hole DZG-SF-25-715 intercepted 1,972 g/t Ag over 3.2m. Hole ZG-RC-25-462 intercepted 502 g/t Ag over 11.0m.

Intersections at Depth Near the Western Fault contact: Hole ZG-SF-25-336 intercepted 2,718 g/t Ag over 1.3 metres.

Intersections in the Central Area: Hole T28-25-904 intercepted 1,631 g/t Ag over 7.2m, including 3,100 g/t Ag over 3.6m. Hole T28-25-942 intercepted 1,947 g/t Ag over 6.0m, including 2,359 g/t Ag over 4.8m. Hole T28-25-894 intercepted 1,339 g/t Ag over 6.0m.

Exploration Update: 21,314 metres or 85% of the 2025 exploration program has been drilled year to date.

“Today’s high-grade results once again confirm the strong continuity of silver mineralization both at depth and around the open-pit area,” said Benoit La Salle, President & CEO. “Moreover, the new intersection at depth near the Western Fault contact in hole ZG-SF-25-336 extends mineralization further west, continuing to push the limits of our current resource model.”

This release contains results from 169 holes, which include 54 underground diamond drill holes, five surface DDH, 48 reverse circulation drill hole (RC), 40 T28 and 22 YAK holes (T28 and YAK: percussion drilling using an air-compressed hammer).
