Clarity hires Services Technominex as drill contractor

Mr. Timothy Ko reports CLARITY METALS SELECTS DRILL CONTRACTOR AND PREPARES TO MOBILIZE AT FECTEAU GOLD PROJECT Services Technominex Inc. has been secured as the drilling contractor and project manager for Clarity Metals Corp.'s upcoming drill program at its 100-per-cent-owned Fecteau gold project, located in the Abitibi region of the province of Quebec. Technominex is a Rouyn-Noranda-based exploration services provider and project management firm with extensive mineral exploration experience in the Abitibi region. Technominex has been contracted to complete approximately 3,650 metres of NQ-size diamond drill core, serving as both contractor and project manager, providing turnkey exploration services for the successful completion of the program. The scope of work includes access road and drill pad preparation, execution of the drilling program, geological logging and core sampling, temporary core storage, and co-ordination of sample analysis through an independent certified assay laboratory. With permitting now finalized, the company is focused on the remaining operational preparations to support mobilization, with all drilling activities expected to be completed during February and March, 2026. Clarity chief executive officer Timothy Ko stated: "We are pleased to have secured Technominex to execute our upcoming drill program at Fecteau, their work on our 2022 program was excellent. Their deep experience in the Abitibi region and integrated project management capabilities give us confidence that this program will be executed efficiently and to the highest standards. With only $1.4-million spent to date on exploration and 11 showings identified across the property, we have only begun to scratch the surface of the Fecteau system. This program represents a significant step forward in testing the gold and base metal mineralization across multiple target areas, including substantial stepouts on mineralized trends and geologic targets not previously drill tested. We look forward to providing updates as mobilization and drilling commences." Drill program overview The planned drill program consists of approximately 3,650 metres of NQ-size diamond core distributed over five target areas across the property. The program is designed with planned optionality to expand based on in-field outcomes. Key target areas include: Fecteau Est: Follow-up drilling to investigate the potential for additional high-grade structures, building on the success of previous results including FEC-22-05 which intersected 14.91 grams per tonne Au (gold) over 1.0 metre from 149.4 metres, and FEC-22-13 which returned 5.98 g/t Au and 0.87 per cent Cu over 0.6 m from 168.8 m down hole. The airborne magnetic survey flown in 2023 details some lineaments that have been interpreted to be second-order structures not previously tested. SW target area: Testing the southern limb of the Fecteau syncline at the main reverse fault and at lithologic boundaries. This area has not been previously tested through drilling and represents a structurally complex zone with significant exploration potential. North Central target: Testing the two northernmost conductors identified through modelling of historic VTEM EM data in conjunction with the magnetic data. Previous historical holes appear to have been potentially collared too far west and drilled into the magnetic and electromagnetic low. These holes will target where the conductors coalesce and the highest responses on each limb. Syncline drill area: West of Fecteau Est, focusing on the opposite side of the main northeast-southwest fault, targeting second-order structures interpreted from magnetics and the regionally mapped syncline hinge. Holes are designed as potential scissor holes to quickly test downdip continuity of promising structures. Buteux-Marceau: Testing an approximate 1.2-kilometre conductor and magnetic high at the Buteux-Marceau base and precious metal showing, where previous work returned 4.11 grams per tonne Au from a grab sample (by SOQUEM during their 1988 field campaign). Previous drilling predated both the VTEM survey and trenching program and was positioned too far off the now-known EM conductor. The Fecteau property is located in the prolific Abitibi greenstone belt and is situated near Gold Fields' Windfall Lake camp and Bonterra Resources' projects. Clarity's 2022 drill campaign and the airborne triaxial magnetic survey completed in January, 2023, have been instrumental in identifying the current drill targets. A total of 17,815 m has been drilled on the property and in the surrounding area since the mid-1970s, with an average depth of only 207 m, leaving portions of the property at depth largely untested by drilling. The Fecteau stratigraphy is also amenable to volcanogenic-massive-sulphide-style mineralization, with several semi-massive and massive sulphide intercepts containing anomalous copper and zinc from previous drilling.
