Summary

Aston Bay and American West Metals announced new copper and silver drill intersections at the Storm Project in Nunavut, Canada, confirming thick, near-surface, high-grade mineralization. The drilling results, including up to 3.2% copper and 129.0 g/t silver, are expected to support resource upgrades and expansion, with deep diamond drilling also highlighting widespread visual copper sulphides. The program includes both resource upgrade and exploration drilling, with some assays still pending.

Reasoning: The announcement reports multiple high-grade copper and silver intercepts, including significant widths, which are stated to support resource upgrades and expansion. Deep drilling also encountered visual copper mineralization, indicating a widespread system, with intersections interpreted to be close to true widths.

Evidence · text

“The intersections are expressed as downhole widths and are interpreted to be close to true widths.”

Step-Out Extensionpositive

Mineralization extended beyond the previously known limit.

Why it applies: Many of these new intersections are located outside the conceptual pit walls and demonstrate excellent potential to expand the mineral resource. The drilling at The Gap confirms the expansion potential of the prospect and the opportunity to define maiden resources of this important satellite deposit.

“Many of these new intersections are located outside the conceptual pit walls and demonstrate excellent potential to expand the mineral resource. "The drillers successfully overcame difficult conditions to reach the area of the deep MLEM conductive anomaly in the Deep Cirrus target, intersecting significant lengths of copper sulphide mineralization along the way. Although the area around the conductive target was not significantly copper mineralized, the hole did intercept a favourable stratigraphy. Every deep hole drilled at Storm has encountered sediment-hosted copper style mineralization as we narrow our hunt for additional copper mineralization at depth. I am excited to review the final processing of the MobileMT geophysical survey, which is expected in the coming weeks, to integrate the results with our enhanced understanding of the stratigraphy and mineralization in these prospective deeper areas at Storm."

DIAMOND DRILLING The second deep diamond drill hole, ST25-04, has been completed and has intersected thick intervals of visual copper sulphide mineralization. The drill hole was designed to test the Cirrus Deeps electromagnetic target and stratigraphy within the Central Graben area (see June 12, 2025, Aston Bay news release ). Drill hole ST25-04 details ST25-04 was drilled to a depth of 692m to the south-west of the Cyclone Deposit (Figure 5). Following difficulties re-entering ST24-03 from 2024, the drill hole was redesigned to be drilled from the north. This direction gave the ability to test the Allen Bay horizon within the Central Graben, the south graben fault zone, as well as the moving-loop electro-magnetic ("MLEM") plates located at depth (Figure 3). The drill hole has intersected two broad zones of visual copper sulphide mineralization (see Table 1) between 183-215m and 298.5-327m downhole. Each zone is hosted within the geological unit that hosts copper mineralization at the Storm Project. The upper zone of visual sulphide mineralization is hosted within a thick sequence of brecciated dolomudstones of the upper Allen Bay Formation. The visual mineralization consists of crackle and matrix breccias with diffuse, black iron and copper sulphide infills as cement (Figure 2). Localized strongly copper sulphide mineralized zones are present within fault-related breccia at 183-184m and 196-197m (see Figures 1 and 2). The lower zone of mineralization contains malachite and native copper that occurs along fracture surfaces and fracture fill. This is commonly associated with fault zones at Storm and may indicate that the South Graben fault is a series of faults rather than a singular structure, similar to the strongly mineralized North Graben fault at Cyclone. A deep horizon of pyrite mineralization was intersected proximal to the South Graben fault zone and within the Irene Bay Formation. This geological unit has only been seen in the area of the Seal Zinc deposit to date. The likely source of the targeted MLEM plates is interpreted to be interbedded organic-rich shale and dolostones of the Bay Fiord Formation, which were encountered between 578m and the end of the drill hole (Figure 3). These organic units are important components within the sedimentary copper model and act as a potential trap for mineralized basin fluids. This suggests that the base of the Bay Fiord Formation may represent a new copper and base metal target horizon within the project area.

STRONG COPPER INTERSECTIONS CONTINUE AT STORM Assay results from the initial drilling at the Corona, Thunder, Lightning Deposits, and the Gap Prospect have been received and highlight the exceptional continuity and resource expansion potential for the deposits (Figures 4 & 5). These drill holes were completed as a priority to enable the timely receipt of results for resource estimation and upgrade studies. The assays confirm intersections of copper close to the surface and within key areas within the current resource envelope. The drilling was designed to upgrade the existing inferred category resources and to potentially expand the pit-constrained resource. The drilling at The Gap confirms the expansion potential of the prospect and the opportunity to define maiden resources of this important satellite deposit. The thick intervals of near-surface copper mineralization in SR25-010 include 7.6m @ 1.1% Cu, 2.2g/t Ag from 73.2m downhole, with the bottom of the drill hole assays still pending.

About Aston Bay Holdings Aston Bay is a publicly traded mineral exploration company exploring for high-grade critical and precious metal deposits in North America. The Company is exploring the Storm Copper Property and Cu-Ag-Zn-Co Epworth Property in Nunavut. The Company and its joint venture partners, American West Metals Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tornado Metals Ltd. (collectively, "American West"), have formed a 20/80 unincorporated joint venture in respect of the Storm Project property, with Aston Bay maintaining a free carried interest until a decision to mine is made upon completion of a bankable feasibility study. Thomas Ullrich, Chief Executive Officer of Aston Bay,commented : "We are excited to report these new intercepts of near-surface copper mineralization from recent RC drilling at Storm. The high grade and style of mineralization are the same as those of the deposits, suggesting good continuity. Many of these new intersections are located outside the conceptual pit walls and demonstrate excellent potential to expand the mineral resource. "The drillers successfully overcame difficult conditions to reach the area of the deep MLEM conductive anomaly in the Deep Cirrus target, intersecting significant lengths of copper sulphide mineralization along the way.

Qualified Person Michael Dufresne, M.Sc., P.Geol., P.Geo., is a Non-Independent Qualified Person as defined by the NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical information in this press release. About Aston Bay Holdings Aston Bay is a publicly traded mineral exploration company exploring for high-grade critical and precious metal deposits in North America. The Company is exploring the Storm Copper Property and Cu-Ag-Zn-Co Epworth Property in Nunavut. The Company and its joint venture partners, American West Metals Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tornado Metals Ltd. (collectively, "American West"), have formed a 20/80 unincorporated joint venture in respect of the Storm Project property, which hosts the Storm Copper Project and the Seal Zinc Deposit. Under the unincorporated joint venture, Aston Bay shall have a free carried interest until American West has made a decision to mine upon completion of a bankable feasibility study, meaning American West will be solely responsible for funding the joint venture until such a decision is made. After such a decision, Aston Bay will be diluted in the event it does not elect to contribute its proportionate share, and its interest in the Storm Project property will be converted into a 2% net smelter returns royalty if its interest is diluted to below 10%. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Statements made in this news release, including those regarding entering into the joint venture and each party's interest in the Project pursuant to the agreement in respect of the joint venture, management objectives, forecasts, estimates, expectations, or predictions of the future may constitute "forward-looking statement", which can be identified by the use of conditional or future tenses or by the use of such verbs as "believe", "expect", "may", "will", "should", "estimate", "anticipate", "project", "plan", and words of similar import, including variations thereof and negative forms. This press release contains forward-looking statements that reflect, as of the date of this press release, Aston Bay's expectations, estimates and projections about its operations, the mining industry and the economic environment in which it operates. Statements in this press release that are not supported by historical fact are forward-looking statements, meaning they involve risk, uncertainty and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Although Aston Bay believes that the assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on these statements, which apply only at the time of writing of this press release. Aston Bay disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by securities legislation. Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its regulation services provider (as that term is defined in policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release.

How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
