Event Summary

Power Metallic Mines Inc. announced significant assay results from its winter 2026 drill program at the Lion Zone, part of the Nisk Project Area. Key intercepts include 17.45 meters of 9.47% CuEqRec in hole PML-26-094 and 39.00 meters of 5.66% CuEqRec in hole PML-26-101.

Power Metallic Mines also holds interests in other land packages in British Columbia, Chile, and Saudi Arabia.
