Emerita Resources Provides Drilling Results From Its La Infanta Deposit

By

Emerita Resources' (EMO.V) drill hole IN095 intercepted 7.2 meters (m) grading 1.0% copper, 4.0% lead, 7.5% zinc, 0.13 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 83.32 g/t silver at its La Infanta deposit, it said on Tuesday.

Drill hole IN093 intercepted 16.9m grading 0.2% copper, 1.5% lead, 1.9% zinc, 0.11 g/t gold and 9.29 g/t silver, including 4.8m grading 0.6% copper, 3.0% lead, 3.8% zinc, 0.12 g/t gold and 21.28 g/t silver, and exploration drill hole INN08 intercepted 2.8m grading 0.3% copper, 0.7% lead, 1.7% zinc, 0.31 g/t gold and 18.9 g/t silver in a deep test of the La Infanta deposit, it added.

"These results further demonstrate that mineralization at the IBW project has continued potential to expand in size and tonnage" said Emerita Resources President Joaquin Merino. "With the recent announcement of the Autorizacion Ambiental Unificada going into public hearings, the Company continues to advance the Project at all levels as we strengthen IBW both technically, environmentally, and with respect to its social license."

The company has paused its drilling campaign for the summer season. Emerita is also evaluating all of its projects to generate the most prospective drilling targets with the recently renewed exploration permits for San Antonio and Nuevo Tintillo projects, and with the large amount of technical information collected by the company at IBW through continued drilling since 2021, it said.

Shares of the company closed down 3.1% to $0.315 on Monday on the TSX Venture Exchange.

Troilus Mining Receives Full Power Allocation from Hydro-Quebec and Ministry to Support Mine Construction and Operations

Troilus Mining (TLG.TO) Tuesday said that Hydro-Quebec and Quebec's Ministere de l'Economie, de l'Innovation et de l'Energie (MEIE) have approved the company's request for a 70 megawatts (MW) power allocation to support the development and operation of its copper-gold Troilus Project in north-central Quebec."The allocation represents a major project de-risking milestone and reinforces Troilus' strategic importance as one of Quebec's next large-scale critical minerals projects," said the company.The formal power request was submitted in early 2025, followed by continuous constructive engagement with Hydro-Quebec and key government stakeholders, it stated. With permitting, detailed engineering, and project financing advancing in parallel, the allocation ensures that sufficient power will be available to support development as planned, the company added.Access to Quebec's low-carbon hydroelectric grid is expected to be a "key contributor" to the project's long-term emissions reduction objectives and provides Troilus with access to reliable, competitively priced renewable energy, said the company, and added that power infrastructure, including 107 kilometers of 161kV high-tension powerlines are already in place and connected to a substation at the Troilus site."This confirmation from Hydro-Quebec and the MEIE marks a crucial milestone for Troilus that meaningfully advances the project's overall development readiness," said Justin Reid, CEO of Troilus. "Access to reliable hydroelectric power is a critical component of responsible mine development in Quebec, and this allocation reflects the advanced stage and broader strategic importance of the Troilus Project within the province's industrial and critical minerals landscape. Troilus is positioned to become a long-life project for Quebec - one capable of delivering meaningful economic benefits, supporting domestic copper supply, and contributing to long-term regional development in Northern Quebec. Securing this allocation further strengthens the foundation of the project and de-risks our path toward the next stage of development."

PMET Resources Discovers New High-grade Lithium, Caesium, and Tantalum Pegmatite in Surface Exploration Works

PMET Resources (PMET.TO) discovers multiple new Li-Cs-Ta (LCT) pegmatite at its flagship Shaakichiuwaanaan Property, as well as at its broader portfolio of properties, Pikwa, Pontois, and Pontax, all located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec, it said on Tuesday.The Cosma, Felix, and Drakkar Li-Cs-Ta (LCT) pegmatite clusters extend the prospective Mickel Trend to about 10.5 kilometers in length, from CV9 to Drakkar, with only about 450-meters of strike drill tested at CV9."The discovery of a new caesium-rich LCT pegmatite occurrence (Cosma), located along the highly prospective Mickel Trend - which also hosts the CV9, CV10, CV14, and CV15 pegmatites - supports the presence of a large, highly-evolved, and fertile LCT pegmatite system within the western area of the Property, which has seen only limited drill testing to date," said PMET Resources Executive Vice President Exploration Darren L. Smith. "Additionally, the presence of well-mineralized LCT pegmatites at Pikwa, Pontois, and Pontax demonstrates the strength and prospectivity of the Company's broader portfolio of properties."The company is currently planning follow-up surface work in 2026 at its Shaakichiuwaanaan, Pikwa, and Eastmain properties, and is evaluating options for the next stage of exploration at Pontax.Shares of the company closed up 3.7% to $7.34 on Monday on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
