The results of this program support the preparation of the summer drilling campaign, which will include 10,000 metres of infill and expansion drilling.\n \n\n The recently completed drilling program was initiated in late 2024 to follow up on the Fortin Zone surface discovery (\n \n see press releases of\n \n\n\n October 29\n \n\n\n and\n \n\n\n December 2, 2024\n \n\n ). Partial results from the first 17 holes (2,090 metres) were previously reported (\n \n see press releases of\n \n\n\n January 16\n \n\n\n and\n \n\n\n April 10, 2025\n \n\n ). This press release presents the full set of results from the program (\n \n Tables 1 and 2\n \n ).\n \n\n The price of antimony has risen sharply due to ongoing supply shortages exacerbated by trade disputes, recently reaching US$58,000 per tonne in markets outside China.\n \n\n\n HIGHLIGHTS\n \n (\n \n Figures 1 to 10, Tables 1 and 2\n \n )\n \n\n The\n \n 10 best holes of the 28 with antimony grades\n \n\n above 0.2% Sb\n \n (composite average) are:\n \n\n\n\n\n\n Hole WS25-40:\n \n\n\n\n\n 1.10% Sb, 0.38 g/t Au over 51.50 m\n \n (from 3.0 m to 54.5 m), including\n \n\n\n\n\n 3.43% Sb, 2.37 g/t Au over 6.50 m\n \n (from 3.0 m to 9.5 m), and\n \n\n\n\n\n 2.41% Sb, 0.18 g/t Au over 9.30 m\n \n (from 37.5 m to 46.8 m)\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Hole WS25-41:\n \n\n\n\n\n 0.65% Sb, 0.13 g/t Au over 42.75 m\n \n (from 20.0 m to 62.75 m), including\n \n\n\n\n\n 1.43% Sb, 0.26 g/t over 10.55 m\n \n (from 52.20 m to 62.75 m)\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\...
