(TSXV: AE) (\"American Eagle\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report one of the strongest drill results to date at its 100% owned NAK Project, highlighting a very wide, near-surface, high-grade interval that demonstrates continuous mineralization from surface to depth and materially expands the scale and coherence of the South Zone.Drill hole NAK25-78 intersected 802 metres of 0.71% Copper Equivalent (\"CuEq\") from surface, including 375 metres of 1.01% CuEq beginning 211 metres downhole, confirming a broad, high-grade mineralized system with strong continuity across previously untested areas. The results increase the overall size of the South Zone and successfully connect multiple high-grade discoveries made earlier in the 2025 drill season, while demonstrating a significant expansion of the known highest-grade part of the system.Highlights of NAK25-78802 metres of 0.71% CuEq from surface, including:375 metres of 1.01% CuEq, beginning 211 metres downhole and within645 metres of 0.82% CuEqDemonstrates continuous, high-grade mineralization from surface to depth with minimal internal dilutionExpands and links the highest-grade parts of the South Zone through previously untested gaps between drill fencesWith these results, the South Zone now extends approximately 700 metres east-west, 500 metres north-south and over 800 metres verticallyAbout NAK25-78Drill hole NAK25-78 was designed to test the continuity and growth of its current northwesterly limits, along with the width and vertical extent of high-grade mineralization within the South Zone. The hole was collared approximately 125 metres north of the highest-grade mineralization encountered in NAK23-17, drilled at a shallower angle toward the southeast. NAK25-78 traversed across the South Zone and demonstrates that high-grade mineralization extends from near surface to depth. The results confirm broad, continuous mineralization and expand the South Zone both to the northwest and southeast. Importantly, this hole provides critical geological information, significantly improving the Company's understanding of the South Zone geometry, which now appears to host a significant high-grade core w...
