Juggernaut Drills up to 20.24 Meters of Quartz-Sulphide Mineralization in Whopper Zone Containing Galena Sphalerite and Chalcopyrite Over a Strike Length of 600 Meters and to a Depth of 580 Meters That Remains Wide Open for Expansion on New District Scale High-grade Gold Silver Copper Discovery on 100% Controlled Big One Property, Golden Triangle, B.C.

(TSX-V:JUGR) (OTCPK:JUGRF) Juggernaut Exploration Ltd reported that initial observations from the maiden drill program have confirmed the extent of the Whopper Zone to a depth of 580 meters and a strike of 600 meters, with broad intervals up to 20.24 meters of quartz-sulphide mineralization intersected on the 100% controlled Big One property, Golden Triangle, British Columbia. Multiple drill holes intersected substantial intervals of broad quartz-sulphide veins and shears containing quartz-sulphide mineralization and textures visually similar to those observed in surface samples that assayed up to 44.76 g/t AuEq (1.41 oz/t AuEq) and continuous channel cuts yielding up to 6.89 g/t AuEq over 4.00 meters. The fully funded 2026 drill program has been expanded by ~30% from 10,000 m to ~13,000 m. The Whopper Zone demonstrates remarkable structural scale and high-grade mineralization, with grab samples assaying up to 44.76 g/t AuEq (1.41 oz/t AuEq). The district-scale Eldorado System covers an area of 22 km2 that remains wide open where grab samples assayed up to 263.70 g/t AuEq or 8.48 oz/t AuEq (256.60 g/t Au, 546.00 g/t Ag, 0.43 % Cu, 0.41 % Pb and 0.01 % Zn) from >400 mineralized veins that remain open and are up to 10 m wide, hosted in shear zones up to 50 m wide, and are exposed on surface for >500 m with >1 km of vertical relief. The 5-year drill permit valid until March 31, 2031, will allow the Company to define the extent of the mineralization at depth as well as fully understand the geometry of the system and related drivers of the mineralization in preparation for a future resource.

Flow Metals Launches Exploration Program Targeting Multi-Stage Gold System at Sixtymile

(CSE:FWM) Flow Metals Corp. has mobilized field crews to commence its 2026 exploration program at the Sixtymile Gold Project in Yukon. The program will evaluate priority targets across the Company's recently expanded land position, including the northern thrust-fault corridor, an epithermal-style target on the newly acquired western portion of the property, and an emerging porphyry-style target. The program will integrate soil geochemistry, geological mapping and field observations with the Company's existing geophysical and structural datasets to refine targets for follow-up exploration and drill testing. Infill and expanded soil sampling is planned over priority structural and geophysical targets. The program is designed to infill and expand upon existing targets to identify gold and pathfinder-element anomalies to determine their relationship to interpreted faults, geophysical features and geological contacts. Results from the 2026 field program will be integrated with historical drilling, geophysics, structural interpretation and previous surface sampling to produce an updated exploration model for the Project. The Company expects the resulting dataset to help prioritize targets for the next phase of drilling at Sixtymile.
