Sokoman Minerals to resume Moosehead diamond drilling

Executive Summary

• Sokoman Minerals Corp. will resume diamond drilling at its 100 %‑owned Moosehead gold project in central Newfoundland, targeting deep (up to 1,000 m) drill holes to test eastern and western trend zones and explore undiscovered parallel structures.
• The initial phase includes two to three 1,000‑metre holes, with the first hole (MH‑25‑673) planned for early October and a four‑to‑five‑week drilling schedule; the broader 2025 program may total up to 15,000 m of drilling.
• Historical work has defined five significant gold zones with high‑grade intersections (minimum 100 g·m⁻¹, max 636.12 g·m⁻¹), and all main zones remain open for expansion at depth.

Key Details

• Program Scope: Deep drilling program begins with 2–3 holes ≥1,000 m each; overall 2025 target up to 15,000 m covering western trend, 75 and 552 zones, plus reconnaissance on remaining property.
• First Hole (MH‑25‑673): Easternmost hole testing Valentine Lake shear zone and southeastern projection of eastern trend; planned vertical depth ~650 m; initial 200–300 m will intersect untested ground with a historic 1988 float sample assaying 10 g/t Au.
• Second Hole (MH‑25‑674): West‑to‑east hole targeting footwall units beneath western trend for 463‑zone‑type veins; expected to intersect the inferred 463 zone at ~650 m depth; historic intercepts include 39.60 m @ 12.50 g/t Au from 295.30 m and 10.25 m @ 41.97 g/t Au from 312.35 m (see Dec 15 2022 release).
• Third Proposed Hole: ~500 m step‑out south of MH‑25‑673 to improve understanding of regional structures at depth.
• Timeline: Expected on‑site start early October 2026; drilling duration estimated at four to five weeks for the initial deep holes.
• Historical Drilling Summary (since 2018): 135,325 m core in 672 holes; definition of five major gold zones and several smaller zones, all open at depth. High‑grade intersections range from ≥100 g·m⁻¹ to a maximum of 636.12 g·m⁻¹ (MH‑18‑39).
• Qualified Person: Timothy Froude, P.Geo., President & CEO, qualified under NI 43‑101.
• QA/QC Procedures: Samples split ½ for assay, ½ retained; analyzed by Eastern Analytical Ltd. (ISO/IEC 17025 accredited) using fire assay and total pulp metallics methods with blanks, standards, and duplicates per industry best practice.

Notable Quotes

“We are extremely excited to be back drilling at Moosehead, given the significance of the deep holes and the impact they could have on the mineralization on the property… The time is right to go deeper than we have in the past, to downhole depths of 1,000 m, and armed with the knowledge we have gained over the past few years, hopefully locating continuous high‑grade zones at depth.” – Timothy Froude, President & CEO
