Results from Soil Sampling Program at the South Hedley Project in B.C. Enhances Copper - Gold Potential

Adamera Minerals Corp. announced analytical results from 165 soil samples collected in November 2025 at the Max Prospect, part of its South Hedley copper-gold property in British Columbia. The company reported numerous high gold values, including one sample with 1.61 g/t gold (313 ppb to 1610 ppb), which expanded the gold anomaly to the east and south. A new strong copper anomaly, with values ranging from 100 ppm to 1,450 ppm, was also identified. Geological observations included brecciation, alteration, and quartz veining.

Mark Kolebaba, President & CEO, stated that this data provides clearer direction for exploration, with elevation control and a structural window suggesting mineralization could extend beneath the tuff unit, potentially leading to a significant copper-gold target, possibly even a porphyry system. The immediate next steps involve a full review of copper results and drafting drill permits for submission.

This news is a positive, but routine, step for an early-stage exploration company. It confirms the presence of anomalous gold and copper mineralization at the Max Prospect and provides further geological context that supports the exploration model. The 1.61 g/t gold in a soil sample is a good indicator, and the identification of a new copper anomaly adds to the prospectivity.

This announcement follows Adamera's consistent strategy of systematic exploration at South Hedley. In November 2025, the company announced the completion of a field program at South Hedley, specifically mentioning the collection of 165 soil samples from Max Prospect and 441 from Glix, with 606 samples awaiting analysis. The CEO's previous statement (2025-11-26) highlighted the potential for Glix to become a "top-tier drill target" pending soil sample results. This latest news delivers on the Max Prospect results, showing promising geochemical anomalies and moving closer to a drill-ready state.

However, it is crucial to note that these are early-stage soil sampling results. While encouraging, they do not constitute a discovery of an economic deposit. The focus on drafting drill permits indicates progression, which is necessary to upgrade the project's potential.

Financially, the company remains in a challenging position. As of September 30, 2025, Adamera reported cash of only $53,575 and current liabilities (accounts payable and due to related parties) totaling over $466,000. While a private placement aiming to raise $724,000 was announced on October 9, 2025, and likely closed after the September 30 reporting, this capital is essential merely to continue operations and fund the planned exploration. The continuous need for dilutive financing (at $0.09 and $0.11 per unit in the latest private placement) reflects the high-risk nature of the venture.

Overall, the news is a positive validation of ongoing exploration efforts at Max Prospect and aligns with the company's stated objectives, pushing the project closer to drilling. However, it does not materially alter the high-risk profile or immediate financial concerns of the company.

Adamera Minerals Corp. is a junior mineral exploration company primarily focused on exploring for gold and copper deposits in established mining districts in Washington State, USA, and British Columbia, Canada. The company employs a systematic exploration approach, integrating geochemistry, geophysics, and geological mapping to identify drill targets.

Flagship Projects: 1. South Hedley Gold-Copper Project (British Columbia, Canada): This 18,714-hectare property is located in an underexplored portion of a district known for significant historic gold production (e.g., Nickel Plate and Mascot mines). Adamera has identified multiple structural corridors with skarn-related and quartz-carbonate vein occurrences. The current focus is on two key prospects: * Max Prospect: Characterized by highly anomalous gold, copper, and arsenic in soil and rock samples, with a 500m long magnetic target at shallow depth. The latest news provides encouraging soil sampling results for Max, moving it towards drill readiness. * Glix Prospect: Identified by coherent zones of gold, arsenic, and zinc anomalies in soil and rock samples, with values up to 4.3 g/t gold. Geophysics and additional sampling are planned, and drill permitting is initiated. 2. Flag Hill South Gold Property (Washington State, USA): Part of the Republic gold district, which has historic production of over 2.8 million ounces of gold. Recent drilling in 2024 intersected epithermal veins with gold and silver, showing increasing grades and widths with depth (e.g., 3.0 g/t gold and 10.8 g/t silver over 2m). The company plans deeper drilling in 2025 to test these veins and a large magnetic anomaly at depth. 3. Other Washington State Projects: Adamera also holds the Empire Creek Gold property (drill-ready epithermal targets) and Buckhorn 2.0 (large land position surrounding the past-producing Kinross Buckhorn mine, with over 30 modelled targets). 4. Talisman Property (Washington State, USA): Originally focused on copper and silver, the company recently highlighted its tungsten potential (a US federally designated critical mineral) and plans to offer the project for joint venture.

Adamera's strategy has been to define drill targets through grassroots exploration, with past drilling follow-up limited by funding. The company aims to advance multiple drill-ready targets.
