Naughty Ventures Corp. Announces Results of Soil Sampling on the Copper-Gold Lord Baron Project, Extends Strike Length to ~6.1km, Newfoundland

Naughty Ventures Corp.

Executive Summary
  • Naughty Ventures Corp. announced soil sampling results on its 100% owned Lord Baron Project in Newfoundland, Canada.
  • The program extended the strike length of anomalous copper mineralization from approximately 2.25 km to roughly 6.1 km.
  • Out of 570 soil samples collected, 46 were identified as anomalous in copper (>100ppm).
  • One trend features a width of up to 175 m and aligns with known geological structures and historical geophysical anomalies.
  • CEO Blair Naughty stated the results outline a larger and more coherent anomaly than previously recognized, setting the framework for future drilling targets.
  • Samples were analyzed by Eastern Analytical Laboratories using ISO 17025-accredited methods (30g fire assay for gold, ICP-OES for copper).
Material Impact
  • The news is positive but incremental in nature; soil sampling is a preliminary exploration step that does not confirm mineralization like drilling results would.
  • Extending the strike length from 2.25 km to 6.1 km represents a significant geological expansion (>2x), validating the acquisition made in October 2025 where Naughty Ventures purchased the property for 1 million shares.
  • However, given the company's history of multiple simultaneous projects (Hydrogen, Lithium, REE, Gold) and limited capital raised ($200k private placement in Jan 2026), this does not immediately resolve valuation concerns or liquidity risks.
  • The market has already priced in some exploration activity following the October acquisition; therefore, while positive, it lacks the "unexpected" catalyst required for a Material Positive rating without subsequent drilling confirmation.
  • Price action prior to release (April 1-16) showed consolidation at $0.17, suggesting the market was not pricing in immediate major upside from soil work alone.
