Executive Summary

Errington Metals Corp. announced its maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for the Sudbury Basin Project on September 22, 2026. The estimate covers the Errington, Vermilion, and Balfour deposits, defining 14.20 million tonnes (Mt) of Measured and Indicated (M&I) resources and 3.44 Mt of Inferred resources.

Global M&I grades average 1.20% Cu, 4.02% Zn, 1.11% Pb, 0.83 g/t Au, and 50.25 g/t Ag, equating to 2.74% CuEq. Over 80% of total resources are classified as Measured or Indicated, with the Errington deposit accounting for ~75% of M&I tonnes.

Economic parameters used a 1.5% CuEq break-even cut-off, with metal prices at USD 5.80/lb Cu, USD 1.30/lb Zn, USD 0.90/lb Pb, USD 4,100/oz Au, and USD 50/oz Ag.

Drilling remains active, with a fully funded Phase 2 campaign of ~55,000 m ongoing through 2027. 30 additional holes at Errington are pending inclusion in future updates.

Material Impact

Errington Metals Corp. (EM) released a maiden mineral resource estimate (MRE) that aligns with management’s stated target of delivering an initial resource estimate in the second half of 2026. The tonnage and grade profile are consistent with historical Glencore estimates and the results of the recent 45,000-metre drill program, confirming the geological model without major upside surprises.

The high proportion of measured and indicated (M&I) resources, exceeding 80%, and the focus on the Errington deposit provide a credible foundation for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) in the near term.
