Ramp Metals Inc. announced that the Company has received a two-year drill permit for its Rottenstone SW project in Saskatchewan. These permits allow the Company to drill an additional 150 holes and to build a temporary camp on site as needed. As per Ramp Metals' October 21, 2025 News Release, a mapping and sampling program was undertaken over the new and existing electromagnetic (EM) anomalies highlighted in the most recent HTDEM geophysical survey.
During the field program, a total of 213 rock samples and 343 soil samples were taken. Ground FLTEM and borehole EM surveys were also completed. The samples were received at Bureau Veritas ("BV") in Vancouver on October 9, 2025, and are currently waiting to be analyzed.
The Company has been informed by BV that results are expected by the end of December. The Company is currently working with Stephen Balch and its advisors to combine and process all the geophysical datasets with the goal of creating a geophysical model and generating Maxwell plate models. The models and analytical data will be used to refine drill targets for the Company's upcoming winter 2026 program.
Key Drill Prospects for 2026: Ranger: Newly exposed shear zone located approximately 325m NE of the Ranger-001 discovery hole. Redridge: Newly identified 2.4 km long EM anomaly located approximately 5km south of Ranger. Heavily oxidized with excellent outcrop exposure.
"Lab results from highly successful fall prospecting program are due shortly. The technical team is thrilled to drill test the newly exposed NE-SW trending shear zone at Ranger, as well as the exceptional high-grade copper potential at both Rush and Redridge. These are district-scale opportunities, and are perfectly positioned to deliver transformative discoveries in the near term".
QA/QC and Geochemical Sampling Procedure. Rock and soil samples from the most recent field program were submitted to BV using the following packages and procedures: Rock samples are prepared using the PRP70-250 package, where samples are weighed, dried, and crushed to greater than 70% passing a 2mm sieve, then pulverized to greater than 85% passing 75 microns. Samples are then analyzed in accordance with BV's FA330 and MA300 packages, for both gold, platinum and palladium analysis by fire assay (30g fire assay with AAS finish) and multi-element ICP analysis (0.25 g, multi-acid and ICP-ES analysis).
Gold returning >10ppm is automatically analyzed by gravimetric method in accordance with BV's standard of practice. Soil samples are prepared using BV's SS80 package, where samples are dried at 60degC and sieved to depletion to -180 um (80 mesh). Samples are then analyzed in addition with BV's AQ251+PGM package, an ultra-trace by ICP-MS analysis where aqua regia digestion is used for low to ultra-low determination on soils followed by a 37 element (including gold) ICP-MS with the platinum, palladium add on for analysis of a 15g sample.
