[{"type":"text","content":"AsiaBaseMetals Announces Acquisition of 100% Interest in Jervis Property (VMS: Cu-Au-Ag-Zn) Hosted within Gambier Group RocksHost to the Britannia VMS Deposit in B.C., CanadaVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 9, 2025) - AsiaBaseMetals Inc. (TSXV: ABZ) (\"AsiaBaseMetals\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to report the acquisition, through staking, of a 100% interest in the Jervis Property (the \"Property\" or \"Jervis Project\"), in the highly prospective Gambier Group. The Jervis Project exhibits strong potential for a Britannia Mine-style volcanogenic massive sulphide (\"VMS\") deposit. Britannia produced roughly 47.8 million tonnes of ore averaging 1.1% copper (\"Cu\"), 0.65% zinc (\"Zn\"), 6.8 grams per tonne (\"g/t \") silver (\"Ag\"), and 0.6 g/t gold (\"Au\") (Minfile, 2008), making it the largest VMS deposit mined in British Columbia and the second largest discovered after Windy Craggy).JERVIS PROJECT - Location, Showings & GeologyTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/7398/277278_e861f7c4b4047ac7_001full.jpgThe Jervis Project, comprising 1,000 hectares of contiguous mineral claims, is strategically situated along the VMS-prospective trend of the Gambier Group in British Columbia, Canada. This trend also hosts the Britannia Mine, located approximately 55 km to the southeast, and the Rox Project (5,131 hectares), approximately 20 km to the northwest and staked by Kenorland Minerals Ltd. This favourable geological setting underscores the Jervis Project's strong potential for VMS mineralization. However, the Company cautions that mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization that may be hosted on the Jervis Project. The Jervis Property ranges in elevation from sea level at Jervis Inlet to nearly 1,260 metres at its eastern extent. Local weather conditions generally permit exploration activities for more than ten months of the year. The Jervis Project is located approximately 80 km northwest of Vancouver, BC, and 11 km north of Egmont village on the Sunshine Coast. Like the nearby Rox Project, the Jervis Property lies within the traditional territory of the Shíshálh First Nation and is subject to the Mineral Claims Consultation Framework which has commenced.
