[{"type":"text","content":"Equity Metals Drilling Underway on the Silver Queen Ag-Au Property, British ColumbiaVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 26, 2025) - Equity Metals Corporation (TSXV: EQTY) (\"Equity\" or the \"Company\") reports that drilling is underway on the 100% owned 18,871 ha Silver Queen Property, northern British Columbia. Four holes totaling 1,422 metres of the planned 18 hole, 6,000 metre 2025 drill program have been completed to date, with the current holes testing down-dip of higher-grade mineralized intercepts from the 2024 drilling (see Figure 2 and 2024 highlights below). Subsequent drilling will continue testing along strike, up to 400 metres laterally to the northwest. Drill core is being logged and sampled for analyses with assays anticipated in the coming weeks. The 2025 drill program is a continuation of drilling completed in Q4/24, which successfully confirmed both the grade and tenor of mineralization beneath historical underground workings beyond the northwestern end of No. 3 resource blocks. Drilling at that time extended the projection of the No. 3 Vein for 400 metres strike-length and to over 250 metres depth below surface. Mineralization remains open both laterally and at depth, and expanding projections of that mineralization is the target of the current 2025 drill program on the property.Previously reported highlights from the 2024 Drill program include:A 7.6 metre (Est. TT) interval grading 1.1g/t Au, 42g/t Ag, 0.7% Pb and 4.4% Zn (431g/t AgEq or 5.8g/t AuEq) from SQ24-136;A 3.3 metre (Est. TT) interval grading 2.8g/t Au, 66g/t Ag, 1.4% Pb and 6.9% Zn (710g/t AgEq or 9.6g/t AuEq from SQ24-130; andA 2.7 metre (Est. TT) interval grading 0.3g/t Au, 174g/t Ag, 1.2% Cu, 0.2% Pb and 3.8% Zn (507g/t AgEq or 7.1g/t AuEq) from SQ24-141 Note: Assays first reported in News Releases NR-15-24 and NR-01-25 dated December 15, 2024 and January 15, 2025 respectively.The No. 3 Vein hosts the single largest resource currently identified on the Silver Queen property and with its southern extension, the NG-3 Vein, account for 65% of the currently modelled mineral resources on a AgEq basis. Therefore, any extensions to the No. 3 Vein will be highly accretive to the current mineral resource. The updated NI43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate with effective date December 1st, 2022 is detailed in a News Release issued on Jan 16, ...
