Exploration Efforts On The Echum And Hubcap Projects

VANCOUVER - BTU Metals Corporation reported on exploration efforts at its' Echum and Hubcap Projects. The Echum Project completed six lines of Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical surveying in Q4 2024 over previously outlined airborne geophysical features of interest in the central part of the Echum project. Winter diamond drilling commenced in late 2024 at the Echum Project, testing targets outlined in 2023 and 2024 IP surveys. Drilling was initially commenced in late 2024 and was then restarted in early February after a break. 5 separate targets were outlined from interpretation of geophysical surveys and geological data, 4 have been drilled and hole 5 is underway. Core is being logged and will be sent for assay at the completion of the drill program

Hubcap surface sampling encountered anomalous gold results up to 6 g/t au near the boundary with Red Pine. Additional assay results are pending from samples located along trend of War Eagle in the Hubcap project boundary area. The high-grade War Eagle results were reported from an area approximately 700m from the Hubcap boundary. IP grid survey lines established in late 2024 are to be surveyed at both Hubcap and Centennial Properties in spring 2025.

CEO Paul Wood, said, "We are excited to announce that drilling is underway again at the Echum Project. Drilling will be finalized by month end and will be logged and sampled by our highly experienced technical team. We are also pleased with the progress made at the Hubcap Project, which outlined new gold showings near our boundary with Red Pine Exploration."
