Copper Quest Exploration Inc. (CSE: CQX; OTCQB: IMIMF; FRA: 3MX) (‘ Copper Quest ‘ or the ‘ Company ‘) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an arms-length Option to Purchase Agreement (the ‘ Agreement ‘) dated November 7th, 2025 with 0847114 B.C. Ltd. (‘ Privco ‘), a British Columbia Incorporated company that holds 100% ownership, title, and interest in the Alpine Gold Property (the ‘ Property ‘), located in the West Kootenay region of British Columbia (the ‘ Acquisition ‘).

Highlights of the Alpine Gold Property

• 2018 NI43-101 Inferred Resource of 268,000 tonnes estimated using a cut-off grade of 5.0 g/t Au and an average grade of 16.52 g/t Au that represents an inferred resource of 142,000 oz of gold (McCuaig & Giroux, 2018).
• Substantial opportunity to grow the maiden Alpine resource to the east-west and to depth with only about 300m of the roughly 2km long vein system explored to date by underground mine workings and drilling.
• Estimated 24,000 tonnes Run of Mine mineralized stockpile on surface presenting a possible near term cash flow opportunity.
• 1,650 meters of clean and dry underground workings accessing sampled and mineable zones.
• At least 4 additional relatively unexplored vein systems on the Property (Black Prince, Cold Blow, Gold Crown & past-producing King Solomon), all hosting historic high-grade gold values.
• Road accessible 4,611.49-hectare Property including 15 Crown Grants (1 with surface rights) and 19 staked mineral claims with all-season operation potential (Figure 1).
• Additions of Mr. Allan Matovich to the Board of Directors. Mr. Ted Muraro and Mr. John Mirko as Technical Advisors on closing. They have a combined mining and exploration experience of 150+ years in the industry.

The 4,611.49-hectare Property is approximately 20 kilometers northeast of the City of Nelson (Figure 1) and hosts the former operating underground mine with a recorded production of approximately 16,810 tonnes of mineralized vein material (Table 1). This material contained 356,360 grams of gold, 222,054 grams of silver, 49,329 kilograms of lead and 17,167 kilograms of zinc. The other 4 significant vein systems on the property will also be explored including the Black Prince and Cold Blow quartz veins approximately 3km to the northeast of the Alpine mine, the Gold Crown vein system 600m southeast, and the past-producing King Solomon vein workings 1.8km to the south. Further information about the Alpine Gold property will be forthcoming in the upcoming weeks.

Brian Thurston, President & CEO of Copper Quest, commented : ‘ With Gold prices at all-time highs, The Alpine Gold property creates a tremendous opportunity to create near term value. I look forward to closing the transaction and welcoming Mr. Matovich, Mr. Muraro and Mr. Mirko to the team.’

Gold: Global Demand & Supply

Global demand for gold remains strong, supported by persistent geopolitical uncertainty, inflationary pressures, and ongoing central bank purchases. At the same time, supply growth is limited, with declining reserves at mature mines, few large-scale discoveries, and rising development costs. This tightening supply backdrop highlights the strategic value of advancing new gold projects in secure, mining-friendly jurisdictions. Copper Quest is aligned with these global trends, positioning Alpine to contribute to the next generation of significant gold discoveries.

Stock Options

The Company has granted stock options to Directors, Management, and Consultants of the Company to acquire an aggregate of 2,600,000 common shares in the capital of the Company, pursuant to the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan. The stock options are each convertible into a common share of the Company at an exercise price of $0. 20 until November 13, 2030.

OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Vancouver, British Columbia TheNewswire – November 13th, 2025 Prismo Metals Inc. (‘ Prismo ‘ or the ‘ Company ‘) (CSE: PRIZ,OTC:PMOMF) (OTCQB: PMOMF) is pleased to announce that further to its news release dated October 20, 2025 (the ‘ Initial News Release ‘), the Company has upsized and closed its previously announced non-brokered private placement of units of the Company (‘ Units ‘) at an issue price of $0.10 per Unit (the ‘Private Placement’ ). Due to strong investor demand, the Private Placement was increased from 12,500,000 Units to the issuance of 17,450,000 Units for gross proceeds of $1,745,000.

The Company also announced it has amended the terms of the warrants forming part of the Units (the ‘ Amendmen t’). As announced in the Initial News Release, each Unit was to consist of one common share of the Company (a ‘ Share ‘) and one-half of one common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a ‘ Warrant ‘). Each Warrant was to entitle the holder to purchase one Share for a period of thirty-six (36) months from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $0.175, subject to an acceleration expiry clause (the ‘ Acceleration Clause ‘), whereby if the Shares closed at or above $0.25 for ten (10) consecutive trading days on the Canadian Securities Exchange, the Company would have the right to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants by issuing a news release announcing the accelerated Warrant term, pursuant to which the Warrants would expire on the 30 th calendar day after the date of such news release. As a result of the Amendment, each issued Unit now consists of one Share and one full Warrant, with each Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Share for a period of thirty-six (36) months from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $0.175, without the Acceleration Clause.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement primarily for drilling at its Silver King project and for general corporate purposes. There may be circumstances, however, where, for sound business reasons, a reallocation of funds may be necessary. The Company expects to accept additional subscriptions of Units in the coming days for an approximate amount of $125,000.

In connection with the closing of the Private Placement, the Company issued an aggregate of 919,960 finder’s warrants (the ‘Finder’s Warrants’ ) and paid finder’s commissions of $ 92,398 to certain qualified finders. Each Finder’s Warrant is exercisable for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of issuance to purchase one Share at a price of $0.10. In addition, the Company paid a cash fee of $15,000 to a financial advisor.

All securities issued or issuable in connection with the Private Placement are subject to a four-month hold period from the closing date under applicable Canadian securities laws, in addition to such other restrictions as may apply under applicable securities laws of jurisdictions outside Canada.

Multilateral Instrument 61-101

The Company has issued an aggregate of 303,275 Units pursuant to the Private Placement to certain ‘related parties’ of the Company (the ‘ Interested Parties ‘), in each case constituting, to that extent, a ‘related party transaction’ as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions (‘ MI 61-101 ‘). The Company is exempt from the requirements to obtain a formal valuation and minority shareholder approval in connection with the participation of the Interested Parties in the Private Placement in reliance on sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101, as neither the fair market value of the Private Placement nor the securities issued in connection therewith, in so far as the Private Placement involves the Interested Parties, exceeds 25% of the Company’s market capitalization. The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Private Placement as the details of the Private Placement and the participation therein by the Interested Parties therein were not settled until recently and the Company wishes to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.

** ‘Both’ indicates drill holes that have contiguous shallower infill as well as deeper expansion intercepts.

Discussion

Drill hole 30-1115, located on the eastern margin of the 2024 MRE model, did not intersect significant mineralization to a depth of 499 metres, but cut relatively high grades of 33.0 metres averaging 1.28 % Cu, 8.89 g/t Ag within the C Zone skarn horizon (expansion), as well as 56.1 metres averaging 0.59 % Cu and 3.52 g/t Ag, above the E Zone skarn horizon. The hole ended in an E zone stope where massive sulfides and high-grade skarns were previously mined.

Drill hole 30-1117, located on the western flank of Copper Mountain, cut three mineralized intervals including 779.0 metres averaging 0.26 % Cu, 1.68 g/t Ag and 0.019% Mo (which includes 312.5 metres of depth expansion), extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 991 metres.

Drill hole 30-1118, located near the southern lip of the Copper Mountain open pit, cut two mineralized intervals including 555.9 metres averaging 0.20 % Cu, 1.00 g/t Ag and 0.008% Mo (infill) as well as a deeper intersection of 151.5 metres averaging 0.11 % Cu, 0.77 g/t Ag and 0.027% Mo (expansion), extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 776 metres.

Drill hole 30-1123, located on the southern flank of Copper Mountain, cut three mineralized intersections, 14 to 36 metres thick and distributed in ‘layer cake’ fashion from surface to a vertical depth of 137 metres, followed by 313.5 metres averaging 0.23 % Cu, 1.84 g/t Ag and 0.012% Mo (infill and expansion) and then by 220.5 metres averaging 0.20 % Cu, 1.63 g/t Ag and 0.024% Mo (expansion), extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 774 metres.

Drill hole 30-1125, located approximately 200 metres south of 30-1118, near Copper Brook, cut five mineralized intersections, 30 to 293 metres thick and distributed in ‘layer cake’ fashion from surface to a vertical depth of 936 metres, including 184.2 metres averaging 0.20 % C and 0.97 g/t Ag (infill) as well as 293.0 metres averaging 0.23 % Cu, 1.26 g/t Ag and 0.019% Mo (expansion).

Drill hole 30-1126, located on the western flank of Copper Mountain, cut two mineralized intervals including 804.0 metres averaging 0.24 % Cu, 1.48 g/t Ag and 0.016% Mo (which includes 399.4 metres of depth expansion), extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 1033 metres.

Drill hole 30-1127, located near the eastern margin of the 2024 MRE model, cut eight intersections of mineralization, 17 to 45 metres thick and distributed in ‘layer cake’ fashion from surface to a vertical depth of 891 metres, confirming the near limit of the 2024 MRE model at this location.

Drill hole 30-1128, located 100 metres south of the southern margin of the 2024 MRE model, cut four mineralized intersections, all expansion outside the current resource model, including 115.5 metres averaging 0.44 % Cu and 3.67 g/t Ag within (and above) the B Zone skarn horizon, as well as 330.6 metres averaging 0.46 % Cu and 4.33 g/t Ag from the top of the C Zone skarn to well below (120 metres) the E zone horizon. This latter intersection included a high-grade interval of 14.5 metres averaging 2.51 % Cu and 24.9 g/t Ag, located in a mineralized vein/massive sulfide zone about 20 metres above the E Zone horizon. This is a new mineralized zone not previously identified at Gaspé Copper and its extent is presently unknown.

Drill hole 30-1130, located on top of Copper Mountain near the center of the 2024 MRE model, cut two significant mineralized intervals including 347.7 metres averaging 0.24 % Cu, 2.14 g/t Ag and 0.010% Mo, followed by 277.5 metres averaging 0.26% Cu, 1.51 g/t Ag and 0.023% Mo, extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 874 metres.

Drill hole 30-1131, located near the southern lip of the Copper Mountain open pit adjacent to 30-1118, was drilled at a 78-degree dip towards the north and it intersected 741 metres of continuous mineralization from surface, averaging 0.21 % Cu, 1.11 g/t Ag and 0.015% Mo (infill). This hole confirmed mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 725 metres, ending in the porphyry intrusion core of the Copper Mountain deposit.

Mineralization at Gaspé Copper is of porphyry copper/skarn type and occurs as disseminations and stockworks of chalcopyrite with pyrite or pyrrhotite and minor bornite and molybdenite. One prograde and at least five retrograde vein/stockwork mineralizing events have been recognized at Copper Mountain, which overprint earlier, bedding replacement skarn and porcellanite-hosted mineralization throughout the Gaspé Copper system. Porcellanite is a historical mining term used to describe bleached, pale green to white potassic-altered hornfels. Subvertical stockwork mineralization dominates at Copper Mountain whereas prograde bedding-parallel mineralization, that is mostly stratigraphically controlled, dominates in the area of lower Copper Mountain, Needle Mountain, Needle East, and Copper Brook. High molybdenum grades (up to 0.5% Mo) were locally obtained in both the C Zone and E Zone skarns away from Copper Mountain.

The 2022 to 2024 Osisko Metals drill programs were focused on defining open-pit resources within the Copper Mountain stockwork mineralization ( see May 6, 2024 MRE press release ). Extending the resource model south of Copper Mountain into the poorly-drilled prograde skarn/porcellanite portion of the system subsequently led to a significantly increased resource, mostly in the Inferred category ( see November 14, 2024 MRE press release ).

The current drill program is designed to convert the November 2024 MRE to Measured and Indicated categories, as well as test the expansion of the system deeper into the stratigraphy and laterally to the south and southwest towards Needle East and Needle Mountain respectively. The November 2024 MRE was limited at depth to the base of the L1 skarn horizon (C Zone), and all mineralized intersections below this horizon represent potential depth extensions to the deposit, to be included in the next scheduled MRE update in Q1 2026.

Most holes are being drilled sub-vertically into the altered calcareous stratigraphy which dips 20 to 25 degrees to the north. The L1 (C Zone) the L2 (E Zone) skarn/marble horizons were intersected in most holes, as well as intervening porcellanites that host the bulk of the disseminated copper mineralization.

(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, British Columbia TheNewswire – November 10, 2025 Juggernaut Exploration Ltd (JUGR.V) (OTCPK: JUGRF) (FSE: 4JE) ( the ‘Company’ or ‘Juggernaut’) is excited to announce that detailed mapping and sampling have confirmed that the gold-rich Big Mac Zone, Whopper Zone and Gold Dome Zone all form part of the 22 Km 2 district-scale Eldorado System that remains wide open where grab samples assayed up to 263.70 gt AuEq or 8.48 ozt AuEq and channel cuts assayed up to 4.89 gt AuEq over 5.21 m from >400 mineralized veins that are up to 10 m wide hosted in shear zones up to 50 m wide, and are exposed on surface for >1 km with >1 km of vertical relief, remains open and is drill ready on the Big One property (the ‘Property’), Golden Triangle, British Columbia. In addition, based on excellent assay results, the Company has acquired additional claims and expanded the Gold Swarm discovery area of strong gold potential from 1 km 2 to 3 km 2 and 700 m of vertical relief and remains open, effectively tripling this area of strong gold potential, where grab samples assayed up to 231.81 gt AuEq or 7.45 ozt AuEq and channel cuts assayed up to 4.51 gt AuEq over 4.36 m that remains open and is drill ready. The Big One discovery is located in an area of recent glacial and snowpack abatement adjacent to the Tier 1 gold-rich porphyry systems, the likes of Galore Creek. The 100% controlled Big One property covers 39,271 hectares of geological terrane with tremendous additional discovery potential.

Big One Gold Rich District Scale System Highlights:

• The district-scale Eldorado System covers an area ~half the size of the Island of Manhattan (22 km ) that remains wide open where grab samples assayed up to 263.70 g/t AuEq or 8.48 oz/t AuEq and channel cuts assayed up to 4.89 g/t AuEq over 5.21 m from 400 mineralized veins that remain open and are up to 10 m wide, the equivalent to ~3-story building, hosted in shear zones up to 50 m wide, comparable to a 15-story building, and are exposed on surface for 500 m, or 5 football fields, with 1 km of vertical relief, the height of 2.5 Empire State Buildings.

• The Gold Swarm Area of strong gold potential has been expanded from 1 km to 3 km , equivalent to more than the downtown core of Vancouver B.C, with 700 m of vertical relief and remains wide open, with 100 veins up to 4.5 m wide, the equivalent of a 1.5-story building, and exposed on surface for 200 m equivalent to 2 football fields and remain open containing grab samples that assayed up to 231.81 g/t AuEq or 7.45 oz/t AuEq a nd channel cuts that assayed up to 4.51 g/t AuEq over 4.36 m. The Gold Swarm Area is drill ready.

Link to Goldswarm Figure

• 41% (219 samples out of 527) collected within the Eldorado System in 2024 and 2025 assayed 1 g/t AuEq; 65% (28 samples out of 43) collected withing the Gold Swarm Zone in 2024 and 2025 assayed 1 g/t AuEq.

• Gold samples up to 256.60 g/t or 8.25 oz/t, silver samples up 2810 g/t or 90.34 oz/t, and copper samples up to 14.40 % were collected on Big One.

• Detailed mapping has confirmed common orientations as well as similar geochemical signatures and textures of the gold-mineralized veins along the 15 km Highway of Gold corridor surrounding the snowcap of Deeker Glacier, strongly indicating that the gold-rich mineralization found throughout is all part of one huge district-scale gold system that remains wide open.

• The polymetallic veins, alteration signature, geochemical pathfinder element signature, and geophysical anomalies strongly indicate the presence of a large common buried gold-silver-copper rich porphyry feeder source or similar magmatic source or sources at depth responsible for the extensive high-grade veining confirmed on surface over 22 km

• The company recently received a 5-year property-wide advanced exploration drill permit.

• Detailed geological and structural mapping has been completed on the reported drill targets in order to define the full geometry of these high-grade gold-bearing shears and veins and will be instrumental in designing the drill plan for the upcoming maiden drill program.

• A high-resolution UAV photogrammetry survey was completed over an area of 52 km2 on the Eldorado System and Gold Swarm Zone encompassing all of the maiden drill targets. The data will be used to support modelling and define targeting the high-grade gold mineralization recently discovered.

• A property wide LiDAR survey covering an area of 385 km has been conducted and will be used to augment information obtained from the mapping as well as plan the upcoming inaugural drill campaign.

• Multiple drill-ready targets have been confirmed and are planned to be tested in the fully funded inaugural drill program and include but are not limited to: the 22 km Eldorado System hosting the Gold Dome Zone where grab samples assayed up to 263.70 g/t AuEq or 8.48 oz/t AuEq; the Big Mac Zone where grab samples assayed up to 113.92 g/t AuEq or 3.66 oz/t AuEq; the Whopper Zone where grab samples assayed up to 43.94 g/t AuEq or 1.41 oz/t AuEq; and the Gold Swarm Area where grab samples assayed up to 231.81 g/t AuEq or 7.45 oz/t AuEq.

• Juggernaut is working in consultation with the Tahltan First Nation and the local community and is committed to maintaining respectful and collaborative relationships. As we advance exploration on our project, we will continue working closely with the Tahltan First Nation and all the local stakeholders and regulatory agencies to ensure our activities create long-term value and reflect community priorities.

Dan Stuart, President and CEO of Juggernaut Exploration states: ‘With a district-scale discovery of this magnitude host to so many large gold-rich veins and shears exposed on surface that rise above the valley floor for >1 km we are likely only seeing the tip of the iceberg on this mountain of gold. We look forward to the fully funded maiden drill program on this remarkable gold discovery with much anticipation. The best is yet to come!’

Manuele Lazzarotto, PhD, Chief Geologist of Juggernaut Exploration, states: ‘With the advanced exploration permit in hand, we look forward to unlocking the full potential of the Big One gold discovery in the third dimension during the inaugural drill program. Once we receive, compile, and interpret all the deliverables from the detailed and regional mapping, UAV orthophotos survey, and LiDAR survey, the same team responsible for the Tier 1 Surebet gold discovery will design and execute the maiden drill program. Obvious opportunities with the scale and grades seen on Big One are extremely rare, and we have clearly barely begun to scratch the surface. The team looks forward to testing this remarkable discovery at depth.’
