(\n \n “Midland”\n \n ) (\n \n TSX-V: MD)\n \n is pleased to report the start of an exploration program to follow up on the 2024 copper-gold-molybdenum-silver (Cu-Au-Mo-Ag) occurrences identified on its Saruman project. Located in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region, approximately 75 kilometres north of the Troilus Gold Corp. copper-gold (Cu-Au) project, the Saruman project was acquired by map designation in November 2023, is wholly owned by Midland and consists of 121 claims covering a surface area of 64 square kilometres.\n \n\n\n\n 2024 Highlights:\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n Strong copper anomalies particularly concentrated within an area of 5 by 3 kilometres, defined in a high-density lake-bottom sediment survey published in 2023 by the Ministère des Ressources Naturelles et des Forêts du Québec (“MRNF”):\n \n\n\n\n\n\n 7 copper anomalies above the 99.5\n \n\n\n\n\n th\n \n\n\n\n\n percentile based on statistical processing;\n \n\n\n\n\n\n 8 additional copper anomalies above the 97\n \n\n\n\n\n th\n \n\n\n\n\n percentile based on statistical processing;\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Identification of Cu-Au-Mo-Ag occurrences on outcrop (grab samples):\n \n\n\n\n\n\n 0.32% Cu, 0.35 g/t Au, 13.8 g/t Ag (sample L880271);\n \n\n\n\n\n\n 0.12% Cu, 0.1 g/t Au, 7.1 g/t Ag (sample L880270);\n \n\n\n\n\n\n 0.12% Cu, 0.06 g/t Au, 2.05 g/t Ag, 0.39% Mo (sample L880272);\n \n\n\n\n\n\n 0.11% Cu, 0.03 g/t Au, 1.62 g/t Ag (sample L880273);\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Project is located in a relatively unexplored area, where the geological context remains poorly defined;\n \n\n\n\n\n\n Mineralization observed on outcrops appears insufficient to explain the scope of copper anomalies in lake-bottom sediments, which thus remain unexplained.\n \n\n\n\n\n This designation followed the publication, by the MRNF, of strong copper anomalies in a high-density lake sediment geochemistry survey published in November 2023. These strong copper anomalies in lake sediments are particularly concentrated within an area of five (5) by three (3) kilometres, which contains fifteen (15) anomalous samples (>95\n \n ...
