On Behalf of Abitibi Metals Corp.

This morning’s drill results just sent a clear message that the metal system at B26 is stronger than many thought, and it is not just about copper anymore.

Fresh off the drill pad, Abitibi Metals (CSE:AMQ) (OTCQB:AMQFF) has confirmed what many were hoping for, thick, continuous copper gold mineralization with standout high grade shoots that can change how this deposit is viewed.

One of the newly reported holes delivered what can only be called a discovery style intercept. 

In Hole 1274-17-269W5, Abitibi was following up copper, but cut into a zone that carries both serious copper and world class gold grades. Over 6.3 metres, the hole returned 17.91% copper equivalent (CuEq), composed of 13.48% copper and 5.15 grams per tonne gold, sitting inside a wider 19.5 metre interval grading 6.93% CuEq.

For a junior in resource definition, that is a rare combination, double digit copper with multi gram gold over mineable widths.

What makes this even more important is the comparison to the surrounding drilling. In the same area, earlier holes 1274-17-260 and 1274-17-269 had already returned strong results of 2.4% CuEq over 10 metres and 2.7% CuEq over 12 metres. 

Those were considered very attractive copper focused intercepts. The new wedge hole blasts through that ceiling, showing that the same structural corridor can host shoots that run several times higher in grade, with a much richer gold component than anyone expected.

Another newly reported hole came back with 4.46% CuEq over 21.1 metres inside a broader 69.0 metre envelope grading 1.8% CuEq. A separate interval returned 3.93% CuEq over 11.0 metres. 

Put together, the data tells a clear story. B26 is not a narrow vein system.

It is a thick, well mineralized package that can locally concentrate metal into very high grade pods. Geologically, that is exactly what larger producers like to see when they model future mine plans.

These numbers were just released, and they matter.

In the current copper environment, anything above 1% CuEq over meaningful widths is taken very seriously. Intervals above 4 or 5% CuEq are the kind that move a deposit up the priority list for technical teams at the majors. When those grades come with unexpected gold credit, the economic potential can shift quickly.

All of this is happening with copper trading around $10,740 per ton, and some analysts are now forecasting a push toward $12,000 per ton as inventories hover near 15 year lows.

But it is not just copper catching fire.

Gold is trading near an all time high at $4,073 per ounce, driven by central bank buying, global instability, and renewed interest in hard assets. When a drill hit delivers both metals in significant quantities, as Abitibi Metals just did, the value per tonne rises sharply.

That kind of dual exposure, in a structurally rising metal environment, is rare.

Electric vehicles, grid upgrades, and data centers are all fighting for the same supply. New quality projects are becoming harder to find.

That is the backdrop Abitibi Metals (CSE:AMQ) (OTCQB:AMQFF) is drilling into at B26.

These results are not coming from a remote frontier. They are coming out of Quebec’s Abitibi Greenstone Belt, one of the most developed, road accessible, and power ready mining districts on the planet. It is a place where discoveries can move from drill core to development studies much faster than in more remote jurisdictions.

They are also part of a larger plan.

Abitibi Metals is driving B26 toward an updated resource, with an aggressive drill program designed to extend mineralization, tighten up the model, and test new high priority targets along strike and at depth. 

The presence of these high grade shoots suggests that the current resource may only be capturing part of the metal endowment.

These new hits are not historic. They are not from an old core shack. They are fresh, high grade assays from an active program that has already started to change how the B26 deposit is framed, from a strong copper story into a copper gold system with zones that can compete with some of the best volcanic massive sulphide style deposits in the sector.

If copper continues to grind higher, and if gold keeps adding extra value per tonne, the juniors that combine grade, scale, and infrastructure are likely to stand out.

Abitibi Metals (CSE:AMQ) (OTCQB:AMQFF) just moved closer to that group.

Institutional support isn’t just trickling in, it’s already embedded. Abitibi Metals (CSE:AMQ) (OTCQB:AMQFF) counts names like BMO Capital Markets and Delbrook Capital on its cap table.

But what really stands out is insider conviction.

Since January, insiders have quietly accumulated more than 2.5 million shares, including open market buys and private placements. Insider ownership now exceeds 26% which includes CEO Jonathon Deluce, whose family collectively owns over 10% of the company. This kind of insider alignment isn’t common in juniors. It means the people closest to the drill results have serious skin in the game.

When you combine that with a tight share structure and major catalysts still ahead, the leverage to new discoveries becomes even more powerful.

And right now, Abitibi Metals (CSE:AMQ) (OTCQB:AMQFF) is delivering.

We strongly encourage investors to read the latest release and download the updated corporate deck for full context on the drill plan, the geology, and the next set of catalysts.
