IDEX Metals Outlines Four Broad Chargeability Targets Across 91.45 Line-Kilometre IP Survey at the Freeze Copper Project, Idaho, USA

IDEX’s IP survey identified district-scale porphyry targets at Freeze, advancing the company’s Phase II drilling program.

Executive Summary

IDEX Metals Corp. (IDEX) completed a 91.45 line-kilometre induced polarization (IP) survey at its Freeze Project, identifying four broad chargeability corridors (Targets A, B, C, and D) spatially associated with known porphyry-style alteration. The survey data has been merged into a 3D model extending to approximately 600 meters depth, revealing a zoned porphyry system with an inner low-chargeability domain flanked by a strongly polarizable halo.

Drilling updates at North Breccia and Kismet confirmed visual chalcopyrite, molybdenite, tungsten, and copper oxide mineralization, with significant step-outs extending the known zones. Target A is designated as the highest priority, with an 800-meter step-out planned to test the core of the chargeability high. Permitting is in progress for Targets B and C, with approvals anticipated by late August 2026. Target D is fully permitted.

The company is actively executing a 10,000-meter drill program to test these targets and expand the district-scale footprint.

Material Impact

IDEX Metals Corp. (IDEX) reported that its IP survey results validate the company's geological model of a large, district-scale magmatic-hydrothermal system. The identification of four distinct corridors provides clear, de-risked targets for the ongoing 2026 drill program.

The update confirms the scale and continuity of the system but does not introduce fundamentally new valuation drivers or unexpected catalysts. The market has been pricing in the progression of the 2026 exploration campaign. The true material catalyst will be the upcoming drill assay results, which will quantify the grade and continuity of the porphyry system. The news aligns with previous expectations of a systematic, multi-year discovery campaign. No immediate price impact is expected beyond incremental interest from exploration-focused investors.
