Flow Metals Reports Encouraging Results from First-Pass Backpack Drilling and VLF Survey at New Brenda

Executive Summary

• Flow Metals reported first‑pass backpack drilling results from the XP (Xenolith Porphyry) target within its New Brenda Project, showing elevated copper‑molybdenum‑silver signatures and alteration patterns consistent with a buried porphyry system.
• A 120 m east‑west VLF survey identified a strong conductive anomaly 20–40 m below the surface aligned with the N1 showing, supporting the interpretation of a concealed mineralized body.
• All assay work was performed by an independent ISO‑accredited lab and reviewed by Qualified Person Harley Slade, P.Geo.

Key Details

• Target Overview: XP target lies in a kilometre‑scale soil anomaly (>700 samples) with Cu‑Mo‑Ag enrichment; 2025 surface samples returned Mo 2.2–7.4 ppm and one grab sample contained 0.24 % Cu with elevated Ag‑Bi‑Te.
• Backpack Drilling: Conducted at the N1 showing and ~80 m NE of it; whole‑rock geochemistry showed porphyry alteration indicator ratios (see Table 1). Intercepts reported in apparent widths; true widths not yet determined.
• Alteration Indicators: Widespread sodic‑calcic alteration, high Rb/Sr ratios spatially associated with Cu and Mo; highest Ba/Sr and K/Na ratios coinciding with elevated Cu zones. All samples plot within sodic‑calcic or sericite‑chlorite fields on a PCD alteration diagram.
• VLF Survey: Single 120 m east‑west line, 8 m spacing, using Geonics VLF‑EM16 and GPS; identified a ~60 m wide strong conductor with an inflection at the N1 showing, interpreted as steeply dipping, highly conductive material 20–40 m deep.
• QA/QC: Samples sealed, split, half retained for reference; assayed by MS Analytical (ICP‑MS, four‑acid digestion). Results are selective and may not represent overall mineralization.
• Qualified Person: Harley Slade, P.Geo., VP Exploration & Director, reviewed and approved all technical information per NI 43‑101.

“Identifying a buried system reflects the strength of our exploration team's systematic approach,” said Scott Sheldon, President & CEO. “The geochemical and geophysical features we're observing are consistent with surface expressions typically found above a buried porphyry system in this Tier‑1 district.”
