Sugarloaf Peak Drill Results Demonstrate Robust Expansion

TORONTO – Arizona Metals Corp. reported on the final round of results from its 2025 reverse-circulation drill program on the Company’s Sugarloaf Peak Gold Project in Arizona, which returned the highest gold grade on the project to date. Consistent with previous results from the Company’s 2025 drill program, these final drill results expand the deposit and they confirm excellent continuity of mineralization within an increasingly large gold deposit.
Highlights of the drilling include: 1) SP-25-28: 91.4 m @ 0.69 g/t Au, including 1.5 m @ 25.5 g/t Au, the highest gold grade on the property to date (including surface samples). This hole, along with hole 29, extended mineralization approximately 80 m to the south in a previously undrilled area. Hole 28 also intersected 57.9 m @ 0.29 g/t Au and 18.3 m @ 0.39 g/t Au. 2) SP-25-29: 123.4 m @ 0.31 g/t Au. This hole intersected a large thickness of mineralization starting at surface in a previously untested area on the southern margin of the deposit. Holes 29 and 28 (collared at the same location) show outstanding potential for continued expansion of the deposit laterally to the south/southwest and along strike to the southeast. 3) SP-25-26: 56.4 m @ 0.43 g/t Au. Hole 26 tested a 270 x 340 m gap in the eastern end of the deposit and intersected thick mineralization, reinforcing the excellent continuity of mineralization at Sugarloaf Peak.
All six of the final drill holes intersected mineralization, growing the deposit laterally and reinforcing the strong continuity of mineralization on the project. The total drilling to date on the project, in 2025 and 2026, comprises 5,186 m drilled in 25 reverse-circulation drill holes.
Duncan Middlemiss, President and CEO, said, “We are very encouraged with these results from our 2025 drill program at Sugarloaf Peak. This has been the most successful drill campaign on the project to date, intersecting mineralization in 22 out of 25 holes, and showing significant expansion upside and excellent continuity of an already large gold deposit that crops out at surface. The Company’s drilling shows Sugarloaf to be a robust gold deposit, and we look forward to further developing its value.”
