Canterra Minerals samples up to 535 g/t Au at Wilding

Executive Summary

• Canterra Minerals reported exceptionally high gold grab samples from its Wilding project, including a record 535 g/t Au.
• New prospecting 14 km north at Noel Paul returned up to 6.35 g/t Au, indicating mineralization extends along the corridor.
• Additional zones (East Alder) yielded 0.60 g/t Au, supporting a district‑scale gold system and justifying upcoming drilling programs.

Key Details

• Record Sample: 535 g/t Au from a grab sample in a known zone on the Wilding project.
• Other High Grades: 169 g/t, 135 g/t and 126 g/t Au from additional grab samples within established zones.
• Strike Extension: Noel Paul prospect (14 km from core) produced grab samples up to 6.35 g/t Au, confirming mineralization continuity along the structural corridor.
• Additional Occurrences: East Alder prospect (10 km from Noel Paul) returned a 0.60 g/t Au grab sample.
• Project Scope: Wilding project spans ~55 km of the gold‑bearing corridor that hosts Equinox Gold’s producing Valentine mine.
• Future Work: Results provide targets for drilling; Canterra will apply modern geochemical techniques (copper, arsenic pathfinders) to define broader halos and plan a 2025 exploration program focused on both gold and critical metals.
• Qualified Person: Chris Pennimpede, P.Geo., CEO of Canterra Minerals, reviewed and approved the technical information per NI 43‑101.
