Stuhini Exploration Ltd. announced the identification of a potential new copper-gold porphyry target at its 100%-owned Ruby Creek Project, located near Atlin, British Columbia. The porphyry exhibits classic alteration signatures consistent with a copper porphyry system, including phyllic (quartz-sericite-pyrite) and propylitic (chlorite-epidote-carbonate) alteration. The new target is located approximately 3.6kms from the Company's flagship Ruby Creek molybdenum deposit and adds to a growing pipeline of multi-metal targets across the 29,734-hectare project.
Two Paths to Value - Development and Discovery: The Ruby Creek Project is underpinned by the Surprise Lake Batholith-an expansive Cretaceous intrusive system in northwestern B.C. that hosts multiple styles of mineralization including porphyry-moly, skarn, epithermal and intrusion-related gold systems.1 Spanning approximately 1,100 km2, this batholith hosts an exceptional array of porphyry, skarn, mesothermal, and intrusion-related gold system. Unlike the Golden Triangle-known for its size and output-Surprise Lake is distinguished by its metal diversity, generated from interpreted multiple magmatic events. Development Track.
The Company has engaged Tetra Tech to complete a conceptual-level economic study of its 433-million-pound molybdenum deposit. This initiative builds on approximately 74,000 metres of historical drilling and a 2006 feasibility study, and is intended to assess the potential for an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), providing an informed basis for next steps in advancing the project. Additional Zones: Several other targets across the project are being refined through ongoing historical data compilation, geophysics, and fieldwork.
Assay results from the 2025 field season are pending and expected to further inform the target ranking of future drill targets. By advancing both tracks concurrently, Stuhini aims to deliver meaningful near-term catalysts while building long-term value in one of British Columbia's most prospective multi-metal systems. QA/QC Protocol: Rock material was collected in poly bags and then transported to the Bureau Veritas sample preparation facility located in Whitehorse, Yukon.
