(TSXV: AMX) (FSE: MX0) (OTCQX: AMXEF) (\"Amex\" or \"the Company\") is pleased to announce that it has received the drill permit from the Ministry of Energy and Mines Ontario for its inaugural drill program on the 100% owned Perron West project in Ontario (see Figure 1). The Perron West project lies along the northwestern continuation of the Normétal-Burntbush greenstone belt, which hosts the Perron project's 2.3 Moz gold resource in Quebec (see news release dated May 21, 2025 and Table 1).

This acquisition came with an existing database of recent geophysical surveys and soil work, in addition to historical outcrop mapping and drilling. Together with the inherited database and the additional groundwork completed by Amex in the fall of 2025, the Company is ready to launch its inaugural Perron West drill program (see Figure 2). An extensive exploration program is planned for the more recently acquired claims of Perron West (see news release dated December 1, 2025). These extensions of the Perron West property contained significantly less historical data, while still lying on the same greenstone belt that hosts Amex's current 2.3 Moz gold resource. Amex views the considerable lack of exploration activities in this area as an exceptional opportunity to continue unlocking discoveries in what the Company beli...
