• Integral Metals Corp. released its 2025 Year-in-Review and outlined its 2026 exploration strategy, focusing on derisking its flagship Kap project and evaluating other assets in Manitoba and Montana.
• The company plans to advance the Kap project through detailed mineralogical and metallurgical studies, reassaying historical core, and potential new soil sampling and drilling in 2026.
• Exploration activities at the Burntwood and Woods Creek projects are in the review phase, with potential small-scale drilling and UAV-based magnetic surveys planned for 2026 to test anomalies and delineate structures.

Key Details

• Kap Project (Northwest Territories):
  • 2025 focus was on geological interpretation, integrating drilling results into the database, and refining the geological model for zinc-, gallium-, and germanium-bearing mineralization (MVT/CRD system).
  • 2026 planned work includes detailed mineralogical and metallurgical studies on previous drill samples.
  • Plans to reassay select historical drill core from the 1970s to modern analytical standards.
  • Evaluating a return to the field for further soil sampling and potential drill expansion to test priority target areas.
• Burntwood Project:
  • Under technical review following 2024 ground-based geochemical and geophysical surveys.
  • Assessing merits of a small-scale drill program in 2026 to test discrete anomalies and determine if further exploration is warranted.
• Woods Creek Project (Montana):
  • Reviewing historical data and prior surface results.
  • Considering additional surface-based work in 2026, including expanded geological mapping and sampling.
  • Planning a UAV-based magnetic survey to identify prospective structures and refine target areas for carbonatite dikes.
• Management Commentary:
  • CEO Paul Sparkes stated the priority is "derisking through focused studies and targeted work programs while maintaining a disciplined approach across our broader portfolio."
• Technical Approval:
  • Scientific and technical information reviewed by Dr. Jared Suchan, VP of Exploration, PGeo.
