[{"type":"text","content":"Selkirk Copper Expands Mineralization at Four Resource Zones at the Minto Copper-Gold-Silver MineHighlightsDrilling at Minto North continues to delineate high-grade mineralization, which remains open to the north and south:2.26% Cu, 2.23 g/t Au and 10.39 g/t Ag (4.0% CuEq) over 8.1 m, within a broader zone of 1.33% Cu, 0.97 g/t Au and 5.48 g/t Ag (2.1% CuEq) over 29.7 m from 197 m in drill hole 25SCM080.Drilling at Minto East intersected multiple stacked mineralized lenses in a 90 m step-out from previous drilling, and remains open for further expansion in east, west and north directions: The deepest mineralization intersected returned notable high-grade copper, gold and silver grades:2.45% Cu, 1.18 g/t Au, and 8.44 g/t Ag (3.4% CuEq) over 5.8 m, from 484 m in drill hole 25SCM082. At the Ridgetop and 118 zones, where shallow mineralization supports potential open pit development, drilling continues to expand mineralization beyond previously defined limits:At Ridgetop, 0.64% Cu, 0.24 g/t Au, and 2.62 g/t Ag (0.84% CuEq) over 30.4 m, from 38 m depth, in drill hole 25SCM065.At Area 118, 0.76% Cu, 0.42 g/t Au, and 3.56 g/t Ag (1.15 % CuEq) over 29.7 m, from 212 m depth in drill hole 25SCM057.Vancouver, British Columbia and Pelly Crossing, Yukon--(Newsfile Corp. - March 25, 2026) - Selkirk Copper Mines Inc. (TSXV: SCMI) (FSE: IO20) (OTCQB: SKRKF) (\"Selkirk Copper\" or the \"Company\") is pleased to announce new assay results from the on going 50,000 m drill program at the Minto Mine in Yukon, Canada. M. Colin Joudrie, President & CEO, commented: \"As we near completion of the planned 50,000 m Phase 1 drill program, and we continue to advance engineering trade off studies, the restart plan is getting better defined. The current phase of drilling is continuing to define and expand zones of high-grade mineralization at Minto North and step-out drilling at Minto East has confirmed the presence of multiple stacked lenses and demonstrates continuity beyond previously drilled areas which is further defining underground development plans. Additionally, results from Ridgetop and Area 118 are extending mineralization within and beyond the current open pit configurations, supporting the potential for expansion of near-surface resources and further defining open pit development plans. These results are being incorporated into ongoing resour...
