Executive Summary

  • Cascade Copper received assay results from the first batch of 13 rock grab samples collected during its Q4 2025 field program at the Centrefire Copper‑Gold Project’s Main Gossan Zone (MGZ).
  • High‑grade mineralization was confirmed: 5 samples > 1 % Cu, 4 samples > 1.0 g/t Au, and 4 samples > 10 g/t Ag, indicating a mineralized envelope of roughly 1,000 m × 800 m.
  • The results will feed 3‑D geophysical modelling and support the definition of drill targets for an upcoming maiden drilling program; a drill permit is expected to be approved in Q1 2026.

Key Details

  • Sampling Overview – 41 rock grab samples collected across the Project; assay results received for 13 samples, with 16 still pending.
  • Assay Highlights (13 samples)
  • 5 samples assayed > 1 % Cu.
  • 4 samples assayed > 1.0 g/t Au.
  • 4 samples assayed > 10 g/t Ag.
  • Notable sample: 1.46 % Cu, 0.452 g/t Au, 23.5 g/t Ag, and 0.23 % W.
  • Mineralized Footprint – Copper‑gold‑silver mineralization now extends over > 1,000 m strike length and ~800 m width at the MGZ.
  • Geological Context – Mineralization associated with Banded Iron Formation (BIF) and Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) style systems; high gold/silver values suggest a hotter hydrothermal feeder zone and potential proximity to a massive sulphide lens.
  • QA/QC Protocol – Samples processed by ALS Canada Ltd. using ISO‑compliant fire assay fusion (Au‑ICP21) and 34‑element ICP‑AES digestion methods; results reported in % Cu or g/t Au/Ag.
  • Qualified Person – Shannon Baird, P.Geo., VP Exploration, reviewed technical information per NI 43‑101.
  • Next Steps
  • Ongoing 3‑D inversion modelling of geophysics and surface assay data to refine drill targets.
  • Drill permit submitted; approval anticipated in Q1 2026.
  • Planned maiden drilling program to test targets, especially on the eastern portion of the Project where outcrop is limited.
  • Live Discussion – Results will be discussed live on Friday January 9, 2026 at 1 pm EST (registration link provided).

Notable Quotes

“These initial results from the Q4 field program confirm the outstanding copper, gold, and silver mineralization potential at Centrefire… Our ongoing 3D modelling of the geophysics and surface assay results will help refine our drill targets for an upcoming maiden drill program.” – Shannon Baird, VP Exploration, Cascade Copper Corp.
