Almadex Minerals talks drilling at Davis, Paradise

Executive Summary
- Almadex Minerals released assay results from its Paradise porphyry lithocap drill program (hole PD‑25‑002) showing multiple high‑grade silver and base‑metal intervals, including up to 28.10 g/t Ag over 0.55 m.
- Historical Davis project drilling (DP‑22‑001 & DP‑22‑002) previously returned significant gold–silver intercepts (e.g., 17.1 g/t Au over 0.80 m and 68.2 g/t Ag). Recent IP surveys have identified a chargeability anomaly coincident with historic high‑grade surface grab samples (up to 36.3 g/t Au), marking the area for follow‑up work.
- The company plans to commence a fourth drill hole at Paradise and is evaluating next steps for Davis, including potential partnership opportunities.
