American Pacific Mining Nears Completion of Underground LiDAR Survey to Advance Madison Project Development
Madison Project LiDAR Survey Completion Signals Operational Progress Amidst Significant Stock Price Decline

Executive Summary
- American Pacific Mining Corp. has initiated a detailed underground survey program at its Madison Copper-Gold Project in Montana to improve geological modeling and drill planning.
- The program involves high-resolution LiDAR scanning and control surveys of the historical Madison Mine underground ramp using the Emesent HVM100 system.
- Fieldwork is expected to be completed in April 2026, with final deliverables anticipated approximately three weeks after completion.
- Strategic objectives include integrating historical data with modern datasets, refining targeting for deeper skarn and porphyry mineralization, and de-risking future drill collar positioning.
- Managing Director of Exploration Eric Saderholm stated this is the first dependable underground dataset ever amassed at Madison, uniting various historical survey methods into one accurate package.
Material Impact
- The news represents a routine operational update consistent with previous announcements regarding the Phase II drilling program and geophysical surveys (March 2026 MT Survey).
- While positive for long-term project development, it does not constitute new financial information or a material change to the company's asset base.
- The market reaction has been negative despite this progress; the stock price fell from $0.28 in January 2026 to $0.14 by late April 2026, indicating investor skepticism regarding execution or broader sector weakness.
- This is a Routine - Positive rating because it confirms planned activities are proceeding but fails to address the significant capitalization erosion seen over the last quarter.
