(“Churchill” or the “Company”) (TSXV: CRI) is pleased to provide an update on its ongoing exploration at the Black Raven Property in Central Newfoundland, host to the historic Frost Cove Antimony and Stewart Gold mines. The program, part of the first comprehensive exploration for antimony, gold, and silver on the property, commenced on September 15, 2025, and includes 5,000m of drilling and extensive trenching,\n \n\n The program is progressing rapidly and systematically as planned, targeting first the historic Frost Cove Antimony Mine, to be followed by the historic Stewart Gold Mine and then the Taylor’s Room Gold-Silver-Lead-Zinc prospect. Concurrently, comprehensive 50m spaced soil sampling is covering a large portion of the entire property to identify potential strike extensions to the known prospects as well as possible new discoveries.\n \n\n In particular:\n \n\n\n Churchill mobilized a second drill rig to the property on October 14\n \n th\n \n and as of October 18\n \n th\n \n has completed 16 core holes with a cumulative depth of 1470m, targeting the northern 500m strike length at the Frost Cove site, and working southwards from the historical adits. Ten surface trenches have also been dug, examined, and sampled within this strike length. Five to seven more holes are to be drilled within this interval to complete initial delineation of this section.\n \n\n\n Semi-massive to massive and stringer antimony mineralization has been intercepted in fourteen of sixteen drillholes, and in nine of the ten surface trenches, in all cases hosted by shear zones along the footwall of a prominent quartz-feldspar porphyry dyke which mapping has indicated to extend further to the south. Massive stibnite seams within the shear zone are typically 10-20cm thick as can be seen in figures a and b below from Trenches 3 and 10, occurring some 200m and 480m, to the south respectively, from the lower mine adit entrance.\n \n\n\n Further reinforcing the project’s potential, Churchill’s exploration team has identified massive stibnite seam mineralization in a recently rediscovered, second h...
