Post date June 4, 2026

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – June 4, 2026) – West Point Gold Corp. (TSXV: WPG) (OTCQX: WPGCF) (FSE: LRA0) (“West Point Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce results from its property-wide target testing program. The initial drilling campaign into the Union Pass Fault Corridor at the Bull 8 target returned significant gold values highlighted by a 21.4 metre (“m”) broad interval of gold (“Au”) mineralization at 1.01 grams per tonne (“g/t”). The Bull 8 target is approximately 6 kilometres (“km”) northwest (“NW’) of the Tyro zone, outside of where the company is working on its upcoming maiden mineral resource estimate (“MRE”).

The Union Pass Fault is a major regional structural feature, with several associated faults mapped and sampled along its 12km strike length on the property. Initial drilling into the Union Pass Fault Corridor was targeted at Bull 8, which has several historical prospect pits and trenches. West Point Gold completed surface mapping and sampling in the area, which revealed a broad northwest-trending zone of highly prospective mineralization; rock types hosted within gold-bearing structures that have returned gold values greater than 2 g/t Au. Bull 8 is on the northwest portion of the Union Pass Fault Corridor, shown to be a controlling structure of the Frisco Graben.

To date, 20,116m of the ongoing drill program at the Gold Chain project has been completed. Results are pending from the Black Dyke, Tyro Main, and NE Tyro zones representing 35 holes (7,697m).

Highlights:

Hole GC26-136 returned 21.4m (18m true width) at 1.01g/t Au from 71.6m to 93.0m within a broadly mineralized envelope.
Hole GC26-130 returned 12.2m of 0.41g/t Au from 6.1m to 18.3m (Figure 2), identifying an extensive near surface lower grade zone.
The structural corridor that hosts the Bull 8 prospect also is one of the controlling features of the Frisco Graben. Extensive quartz veining, hydrothermal alteration and anomalous gold values can be observed over the entire 12kms.
All holes drilled across the Bull 8 prospect intersected gold mineralization.

“The significance of the results in GC26-136 has less to do with the significant gold values intersected and more to do with the structural setting. The Union Pass Fault Corridor, and the associated Frisco Mine fault are major regional structural features with approximately 12km of demonstrated strike length on Gold Chain. Exploration success at Bull 8 supports the Company’s view that these major features, which also control the Frisco Graben, appear to have played an important role in the mineralizing events at Gold Chain. We believe these results de-risk other targets along the Union Pass Fault Corridor, including the Frisco Graben,” stated Derek Macpherson, President and CEO.

Table 1: Drill Results

Holes	From (m)	To (m)	Width (m)	Grade (g/t Au)
GC26-126	118.9	182.9	64.0	0.12
GC26-128	No Significant Values
GC26-130	6.1	18.3	12.2	0.41

Summary

West Point Gold has recently completed an initial drilling campaign composed of 6 holes totalling 855.7m (Table 2) at Bull 8. The identification of broadly veined intervals at a dike/Precambrian contact within a regional shear zone hosting low-level gold values (100 to 500 ppb Au) suggests follow-up drilling is warranted. This structural corridor, which hosts widespread, high-level veining with anomalous gold values over several kilometres, hosts numerous additional targets. Hole GC26-136, the deepest hole drilled in this campaign, identified 21.4m at 1.01 g/t Au, supporting the Company’s belief that surface features are a manifestation of concealed gold mineralization.

The exploration conducted to date at the Bull 8 prospect, along with more regional geologic, geochemical, and geophysical studies, reveals that a regional northwest structural corridor is the dominant geologic feature. The Bull 8 prospect is a small hill surrounded (Figure 2) on 3 sides by Quaternary alluvium. This hill is traversed by several fault-bounded dikes emplaced into widely sheared, brecciated and altered Precambrian granite, which has been tested by several historical pits, adits and trenches; surface gold values are up to 2.09 g/t Au. The dikes and confining structures dip steeply to the north-northeast and are consistent with attitudes seen along the Union Pass Fault

Corridor (including the Frisco Mine Fault) across the Gold Chain project (about 12km). Throughout the entire strike length documented by West Point Gold, the hanging wall (HW) is strongly altered to silica + clay + hematite (steam-heated environment), whereas the footwall (FW) (generally Precambrian granite) is propylitized. Quartz veinlets and cemented breccias are also widespread and commonly anomalous in gold.

Exposures of the mineralized zone at Bull 8 reveal strongly sheared and brecciated Precambrian granite hosting both quartz vein fragments and quartz-chalcedony veinlets and silicification. The sheared and brecciated rocks contained abundant iron oxides, which were observed in all of the drill holes. The highly variable appearance of the mineralized zone, including quartz styles, textures and colours, suggests prolonged tectonism and mineralization, including widespread evidence of post-mineral movements. Distinct, continuous veins are not apparent.

Figure 3 provides a geologic sketch of the two deeper holes, GC26-132 and -136. The section reveals a close correlation between quartz veining, along with gold, and the footwall contact of a feldspar porphyry dike complex and the Precambrian granite. This contact, along with other dike contacts, are faults. Surface exposures of the dike do not reveal shearing, brecciation, or fracturing as seen in the surrounding Precambrian granite, suggesting that the dikes were emplaced into the structural corridor after much of the tectonism. Similar features have been observed several kilometres to the southeast, i.e. Frisco Graben and Tyro Vein, suggesting a prolonged structural history.

Importantly, Hole GC26-136 encountered gold grades up to 5.96 g/t Au and 21.4m at 1.01 g/t Au from 70.6 to 93.0m. Approximately 50m above (Figure 3), Hole GC26-132 encountered a broad zone of moderate to strong quartz veinlets with 7.62m at 0.35 g/t Au at the HW contact and 9.14m at 0.22 g/t Au along the FW; strongly anomalous gold values exist between the two intervals. Most importantly, veining appears to coalesce with depth, along with an increase in gold values. This scenario is similar to the uppermost NE Tyro vein where strongly altered, weakly mineralized rock sits immediately above broad widths and high gold grades.

Post author By admin
Post date May 25, 2026

Edmonton, Alberta–(Newsfile Corp. – May 25, 2026) – Grizzly Discoveries Inc. (TSXV: GZD) (FSE: G6H) (OTCQB: GZDIF) (“Grizzly” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has recently received results from the Phase 2 Induced Polarization (IP) Survey at the Sappho Target area by Peter Walcott & Associates and the Company has commenced a Phase 1 IP survey at the Greyhound – Motherlode area near the town of Greenwood. In addition, the Company has received the results of early 2026 sampling at the Greenwood, BC Precious and Critical Minerals Project from APEX Geoscience Ltd. (APEX). The collection of a total of 63 rock grab and sand (tailings) samples has resulted in the discovery of one new metal occurrence at the Motherlode Northeast (NE) area, along with a number of excellent copper (Cu) – gold (Au) results from some old workings outside of but along the east side of the Motherlode Pit, the Sunset Pit area, the Greyhound Pit area and at the Sappho Prospect. The targets are all part of the Greenwood, BC Precious and Critical Minerals Project (Figure 1).

The focus of the 2026 program will be additional Induced Polarization (IP) surveys at the Sappho and Motherlode areas, along with trenching and drilling at Midway, targeting the historical Midway Mine. The initial drill program at the Sappho Skarn Target area has been completed with a total of 1,485 m in 7 holes. The core is being logged and sampled and results will be provided as they are received. Additional Phase 2 drilling is also planned for the Sappho area to test the recently discovered and new IP chargeability anomaly to the southeast of the main skarn area. Additional prospecting, mapping and reconnaissance sampling will be conducted across the entire project area throughout 2026.

IP and Sampling 2026 Highlights

Phase 2 Sappho IP results extend the IP Chargeability Anomaly up to 500 m south and 1 km east and is open in both directions (Figures 2 and 3).
The core of the IP Chargeability Anomaly ranges from 30 mV/V up to 85 mV/V in intensity, and in many instances is coincident with a strong resistivity anomaly or in some cases a weak conductivity anomaly (Figures 2 and 3).
A total of 63 rock grab samples were collected in January – February from the Motherlode-Greyhound area, the Motherlode and Phoenix historical tailings areas, from the Sappho skarn target area and the Rock Creek area (Figures 2 and 3).
A new showing, Motherlode Northeast, has been discovered approximately 780 m northeast of the Motherlode pit and recent grab samples have returned up to 5.12 grams per tonne (g/t) Au, 66.7 g/t silver (Ag) and 0.528% Cu (Figures 2 and 3; Table 1).
A number of samples with anomalous Cu and Au were collected from a series of workings along the east side of the Motherlode pit, that have been uncovered with recent logging of the Motherlode area, including four rock grab samples returning a range of 0.709% Cu up to 1.8% Cu and 1.37 g/t Au up to 3.61 g/t Au (Figures 2 and 3; Table 1).
Two rock grab samples collected from a rubble pile previously unsampled at the southeast corner of the Sunset Pit have returned 1.505% Cu and 1.71% Cu along with 2.42 g/t Au and 3.1 g/t Au, and 17.8 and 29.9 g/t Ag (Figures 2 and 3; Table 1).
Grab samples from fine sand and silt at the Motherlode Tailings area and one of the Phoenix Tailings areas has returned up to 0.145% Cu and 0.416 g/t Au from the Motherlode Tailings material and up to 0.16% Cu and 0.831 g/t Au from the Phoenix Tailings material (Figures 2 and 3; Table 1).
A rock grab sample collected from the Sappho Skarn Target returned 4.77% Cu, 0.018% cobalt (Co) and 12.3 g/t Ag (Figures 2 and 3; Table 1).

Brian Testo, President and CEO of Grizzly Discoveries, stated, “The results from the geophysical programs at our Sappho target, Midway and Motherlode area, continue to define the most prospective areas and the potential for new precious metals and critical mineral discoveries. The IP survey has outlined an extensive porphyry type anomaly at Sappho and we are excited to receive drilling results from the Sappho Target. We look forward to additional trenching and drilling at Midway along with additional exploration for significant precious metals and critical minerals prospects across our entire 170,000+ acre land holdings in the Greenwood District!“

M42 Expands Defense and National Security Strategy Through Epirus Partnership and Fairfax International Defense Capabilities

Post author By admin
Post date May 22, 2026

DALLAS, TX / ACCESS Newswire / May 22, 2026 / Messier 42 LLC (“M42”), a private leading global artificial intelligence technology and digital transformation company, today announced that M42’s wholly owned subsidiary, Fairfax National Security Solutions LLC (“Fairfax”), has entered into a teaming arrangement with Epirus Inc. Under the agreement, Fairfax is expected to drive the compliant marketing and sales of select Epirus advanced counter-drone technologies to approved U.S. and allied government customers. M42 believes the agreement represents an important step in expanding Fairfax’s role as an international defense channel.

This agreement highlights the strategic importance of M42’s previously announced agreement to acquire a minority interest in Epirus, a high-growth defense technology company developing advanced counter-drone systems, including the Leonidas family of solid-state, software-defined, high-power microwave systems.

Epirus’ Leonidas platform is designed as a solid-state, high-power microwave system that uses advanced electronics and software-defined capabilities for counter-drone applications. This technology is designed to address the rapidly expanding threat posed by drones across military, homeland security, critical infrastructure, and allied defense environments.

Fairfax will serve as a compliant international channel to support the introduction, engagement, and potential sale of select Epirus counter-drone solutions into approved foreign markets. Fairfax is registered with the U.S. government as an exporter of defense training, equipment, and related defense services and solutions under the Arms Export Control Act and International Traffic in Arms Regulations, enabling participation in U.S. government and approved allied defense programs.

“Unmanned or drone systems are changing the character of modern conflict, creating an urgent need for scalable, sophisticated, and highly adaptable defensive capabilities,” said Patrick M. Walsh, Admiral, US Navy (ret), former Vice Chief of Naval Operations, former Commander, US Pacific Fleet, and a member of M42’s Advisory Board. “M42’s strategy brings together advanced technology, national security expertise, regulatory discipline, and allied-market access at a time when governments are seeking practical and affordable solutions to emerging drone threats. By combining Epirus’ leading counter-drone technology with Fairfax’s defense advisory and international compliance capabilities, M42 is positioning itself to support allied partners in addressing one of the most important defense challenges of our time.”

M42 believes the combination of Epirus’ technology with Fairfax’s national security and compliance infrastructure will create a significant long-term strategic opportunity. M42 expects Fairfax to play a central role in supporting disciplined, compliant, and targeted international engagement with approved allied governments and defense stakeholders.

“This is exactly the type of opportunity M42 was built to pursue,” said a spokesperson for M42. “The global defense environment is moving quickly, and the need for advanced counter-drone capabilities is no longer theoretical. Through our relationship with Epirus and our acquisition of Fairfax, M42 is bringing together leading technology, trusted national security leadership, and a compliant international defense platform. We believe this combination has the potential to become a meaningful contributor to M42’s long-term growth and free cash flow profile, while supporting allied governments in addressing urgent and evolving security needs.”

M42 previously announced its agreement to acquire a minority interest in Epirus in October 2025. The Company also announced its agreement to acquire Fairfax in March 2026 as part of the expansion of its Defense and National Security Unit.

Apollo Silver Accepted into U.S. Defense Industrial Base Consortium

Post author By admin
Post date February 2, 2026

Vancouver, British Columbia, February 02, 2026 – Apollo Silver Corp. (“Apollo Silver” or the “Company”) (TSX.V:APGO, OTCQB:APGOF, Frankfurt:6ZF) is pleased to announce that it has received acceptance into the U.S. Defense Industrial Base Consortium (“DIBC”), a U.S. Department of Defense-supported initiative designed to support collaboration across industry, academia, and government in advancing solutions relevant to U.S. defense and national security priorities.

The DIBC focuses on strategic and critical materials and technologies essential to U.S. national security, including initiatives to improve the resilience and security of domestic critical mineral supply chains that support defense and industrial applications[1].

Apollo Silver’s U.S.-based Calico Project hosts significant silver mineralization alongside barite and zinc, which are classified as critical minerals on the USGS List of Critical Minerals and play important roles in industrial, infrastructure, and defense-related applications.

As a member of the DIBC, Apollo Silver joins a network of traditional and non-traditional defense contractors, research institutions, and federal agencies working to advance innovation at speed. Membership provides the Company with opportunities to engage in federally sponsored initiatives related to critical materials supply chains, including the mining and processing of silver, zinc, and barite.

“Apollo Silver’s acceptance into the DIBC reflects the growing strategic importance of U.S.-based critical mineral assets, including silver, following its inclusion on the USGS List of Critical Minerals in November 2025,” said Ross McElroy, President and CEO of Apollo Silver. “With one of the largest undeveloped primary silver assets in the United States and meaningful exposure to industrial critical minerals such as barite and zinc, we believe Apollo Silver is well positioned to align with U.S. priorities focused on supply-chain security, industrial resilience, and national defense.”

Proven and Probable Presents: A Ponderous Consideration of Apollo Silver, by a Fellow Who Ain’t a Fool (Usually)

Post author By admin
Post date August 24, 2025

Apollo Silver – https://apollosilver.com/

TSX.V: APCO | OTCQB: APGOF | Frankfurt: 6ZF0

Now, I’ve seen a thing or two in my time, from the muddy banks of the Mississippi to the wild, woolly, and mostly-full-of-lies silver rushes out West. The talk of riches—it’s like a siren’s song, ain’t it? It’ll make a man forget his grammar, his good sense, and sometimes his very trousers. The world is full of fellows who’d sell you a gold brick made of brass, and another sort who’ll show you a hole in the ground and swear it’s a direct-to-Heaven express line for your pocketbook.

And so it is, that a body must approach a matter of finance with a mind as clear as a bottle of good whiskey before the cork’s been pulled. And I’ve been looking at this Apollo Silver business, and it’s a curious thing, a right proper puzzle for a man who’s seen a few. It ain’t about the grand promises of a bonanza that’ll make you the next Rockefeller, a-building libraries and a-dressing in finery. No sir. That kind of talk is for the greenhorns and the giddy.

What’s to be said for Apollo is a different tune entirely. It’s a calm, measured sort of melody, like a riverboat gliding on a Sunday afternoon. You see, they’ve got this Calico project out in California, and another one, Cinco de Mayo, down in Mexico. And when they speak of it, they ain’t waving their arms about or using words too big for their boots. They’re talking about a mineral resource. And not just a vague promise, but numbers that have been “measured,” “indicated,” and “inferred.” That’s the part that sticks to a man’s ribs like a good meal.

And there’s history to back it up, too. The Calico district ain’t some new-fangled idea; it’s a place where they’ve been pulling silver from the earth for a long spell. Back in 1881, after a big discovery, Calico became a real humdinger of a town. It was a place that produced millions of dollars in silver over a dozen years, a wild and colorful place that drew in folks from all over the globe, a town with a name that came right from the “calico-colored” mountains themselves. A fella by the name of Walter Knott, who had a berry farm and a fondness for history, even went and restored the old place after it became a ghost town. So, the ground there, it’s got a reputation.

And in that reputable ground, they’ve got a proper accounting. The Calico project is said to hold a mighty 110 million ounces of silver in the “Measured and Indicated” category, which is a powerful lot of the shiny stuff. And on top of that, there’s another 51 million ounces of silver in the “Inferred” category. That’s a sum a body can get his head around.

Now, as for the Cinco de Mayo project down in Chihuahua, Mexico, well, that region is a whole other book of stories. Mexico’s got a history with silver that goes back centuries, and a fella who knows a thing or two about rocks will tell you that the very geology of the area is famous for these “carbonate replacement deposits,” the kind that have been responsible for a good 40% of all the silver ever pulled out of the ground in that country. And while their report on this project is of a historical nature, it still speaks to a substantial resource, with a historical estimate of 52.7 million ounces of silver in the “Inferred” category. It’s a testament to the region’s long-standing character.

Now, I’ve seen men go bust on a whim, throwing their money at some fly-by-night scheme with a map that had more flourishes than truth. But this here, this is a matter of geography and common sense. It’s in places where they’ve been digging silver for a hundred years, and where the land itself seems to say, “Why yes, there’s more where that came from.” And the folks in charge—they’ve got a long-standing acquaintance with the business of pulling wealth from the earth, not just from the pockets of others.

So, a man must ask himself, what’s the virtue in this? The virtue is in the lack of fancy. It’s a bet on what’s already there, not what might be. It’s the difference between a high-stakes poker game where you might lose your shirt, and a man walking into a store to buy a new one. It ain’t a get-rich-quick scheme. It’s a slow, deliberate trundle down the road of reason. And in a world where every huckster with a shovel has a story to tell, a story about a resource measured and counted is a mighty comfortable thing to rest your hat on.
