Yukon Metals files NI 43-101 tech report for AZ project

Executive Summary

• Yukon Metals Corp. filed an independent NI 43-101 technical report for its AZ Project in the West-Central Yukon Territory, with an effective date of December 4, 2025.
• The report outlines widespread copper mineralization, including rock chip samples grading up to 26% copper, and identifies potential evidence of a large porphyry system in the southeast zone.
• Geophysical data (IP chargeability highs coincident with resistivity lows and elevated Cu-Mo-Au-Ag soil samples) and drill results (specifically hole AZ25-004 showing potassic alteration) suggest current drilling is on the margin of a potentially much larger system.

Key Details

• Report Filing: Independent NI 43-101 Technical Report titled "NI 43-101 Technical Report on Activities on the AZ Property. West-Central Yukon Territory, Canada" filed with an effective date of Dec. 4, 2025.
• Property Location: AZ is a 13,110-hectare copper-gold exploration property located in western Yukon, ~36 km south of Beaver Creek and ~6 km west of the Alaska Highway.
• Mineralization Highlights:
  • Widespread copper mineralization identified.
  • Rock chip samples returned grades up to 26% copper.
  • Southeast zone shows potential evidence of a large porphyry system.
• Geophysical & Geochemical Data:
  • Induced Polarization (IP) results defined a strong chargeability high coincident with a resistivity low.
  • Elevated copper-molybdenum-gold-silver soil samples at surface.
  • These features are described as classic signatures of a porphyry target.
• Drilling Results:
  • Drill hole AZ25-004 intersected potassic alteration and mineralization.
  • This intersection occurred several hundred metres from the core of the IP anomaly.
  • Interpretation: Drilling to date is only on the margin of a potentially much larger system.
• Consistency with Prior Disclosures: The report supports scientific and technical information previously disclosed in a news release dated Jan. 22, 2026, and contains no material differences from that prior release.
• Portfolio Context: Yukon Metals holds a 17-project portfolio covering >43,000 hectares, including the Birch and AZ copper-gold systems and the Star River gold-silver project.

Notable Quotes

• "Importantly, potassic alteration and mineralization intersected in drill hole AZ25-004, several hundred metres from the core of the IP anomaly, suggest that drilling to date is only on the margin of a potentially much larger system that will be the focus of follow-up work detailed in the full report."
