(\"Churchill\" or the \"Company\") (TSXV:CRI.V) is pleased to report exceptional final results from its 2025 maiden drilling and trenching program at the Black Raven Project in Central Newfoundland, as highlighted in the following points:Frost Cove Antimony Mine Prospect (Figs. 1 and 2, Table 1)Final 2025 holes FC25-16 to 30 returned standout results including 6.44%Sb / 2.06m, 7.25% Sb / 1.98m, 4.84% Sb / 1.00m, and 3.94% / 1.60m.A locally adjacent parallel polymetallic (gold-silver) vein intersected a best result of 5.89gpt Aueq* / 1.00m.Demonstrates potential high-grade antimony mineralization over 800m strike length with vertical depth of 100m; remaining open in all directions.New Polymetallic System Discovered at Taylor's Room Prospect (Fig. 3 and Tables 2-4)A new polymetallic system has been identified at Taylors Room, with trenching and channel sampling over 150m of strike yielding a best results of 10.59gpt Aueq / 1.05m and 4.12gpt Aueq / 1.80m.Twelve hole drill program intersected shear-vein zone at shallow depths, but returned lower gold tenors than at surface (best assay 3.15gpt Aueq / 0.44m).Drill core fire assay samples to be optimized by retesting with much larger pulp and metallic aliquots to confirm gold content.2026 Exploration Underway; Drill Program CommencingA two-rig drill program is scheduled to begin with first rig on March 23rd, with a second rig arriving mid-April.Trail and drill pad construction has commenced at site, as well as drill contractor pre-mobilization of equipment to Churchill's project facility near Boyd's Cove, approximately 30km from siteFrost Cove extension drilling and Pomley Cove Pond targets will be the initial priorities, with details on planned drilling and trenching to be articulated in a forthcoming news release.Commented Paul Sobie, President of Churchill Resources: \"Today we are confirming elevated antimony assays at Frost Cove along the entire known structure comprising an 800m length with a vertical depth to 100m. Potentially commercial grades and thicknesses of stibnite reported from numerous locales at surface, and to shallow depths. The parallel, high-grade gold-s...
