Anteros Metals Inc. (CSE: ANT) (“Anteros” or the “Firm”) is happy to report assay outcomes following a preliminary go to to its 100% owned, road-accessible Havens Regular VMS Property (“Havens Regular” or the “Property”) in central Newfoundland. The sector go to, designed to verify historic floor knowledge and refine exploration targets forward of trenching and drilling, resulted within the discovery of high-grade copper-silver-gold mineralization from a newly accessible space roughly 200 metres northeast and alongside strike of the modelled Most important Mineralized Zone (“MMZ”).
Prospecting highlights embody seize samples1 of angular float returning as much as 2.17% copper, 21.3 g/t silver, and 0.22 g/t gold from a beforehand untested goal space. The invention, coincident with historic copper-in-soil anomalies and geophysical targets, is interpreted to be domestically derived and confirms the prospectivity and strike extension potential of the MMZ.
Led by the Firm’s Certified Individual, the Property go to centered on validating historic grid and drill collar areas and prospecting terrain northeast of the MMZ, newly accessible via timber harvesting and highway growth. The realm was prioritized for prospecting based mostly on alignment with historic floor magnetic and VLF anomalies and copper-in-soil traits that had not been assessed by earlier operators. Three seize samples had been submitted to ALS Laboratories for four-acid ICP-AES multi-element evaluation and hearth assay for gold. Outcomes are summarized beneath:

“These outcomes symbolize a big step ahead in our understanding of the MMZ and its potential scale,” mentioned Trumbull Fischer, CEO of Anteros Metals. “The staff got down to validate historic knowledge and examine new floor – and never solely did we affirm key legacy components, we additionally found high-grade mineralization in an space that had by no means been prospected. The copper-gold grades noticed might mirror a feeder-influenced setting, opening up thrilling new targets for the season forward.”

The MMZ is interpreted as a steeply southeast-dipping stratiform horizon trending northeast, with over 700 metres of traditionally drilled strike size and a number of open vectors each alongside strike and at depth. Mineralization contains sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite, and bornite in high-grade polymetallic zones, with historic drilling indicating sturdy base and treasured steel potential.
The presence of angular sulphide-bearing float alongside strike of the MMZ with excessive grade copper, silver, and gold grades highlights the invention potential alongside strike from the recognized system and helps further investigation.
QA/QC
Rock samples had been submitted to ALS Geochemistry in Moncton, New Brunswick for preparation, with pulps analyzed on the ALS laboratory in Ancaster, Ontario. Samples had been ready utilizing ALS technique PREP-31, together with crushing to 70% passing 2 mm, splitting, and pulverizing to >85% passing 75 µm. Multi-element evaluation was carried out utilizing a 0.25 g aliquot and four-acid digestion with ICP-AES (ME-ICP61), whereas gold was analyzed through 30 g hearth assay with AA end (Au-AA23). QA/QC protocols at ALS embody the insertion of licensed reference supplies, blanks, and duplicates. Assay outcomes are reported solely when QA/QC samples fall inside specified limits. Anteros additionally submitted licensed reference supplies, which had been deemed inside analytical uncertainty by the Firm’s Certified Individual.
NEXT STEPS
The Firm will incorporate these outcomes into its summer season exploration plans, which embody detailed mapping, trenching, and additional floor sampling to outline the scale and orientation of the brand new mineralized zone. Observe-up work may additionally contain geophysical refinement and drill concentrating on. Further updates will probably be supplied as work progresses.

ABOUT THE PROPERTY
Positioned roughly 40 kilometres southeast of Buchans, the Havens Regular Property hosts a laterally in depth polymetallic volcanogenic large sulphide (“VMS”) system inside the Storm Brook Formation of the Purple Cross Group within the Exploits Subzone of the Dunnage Zone – a prolific metallogenic belt in central Newfoundland. The Property advantages from current highway infrastructure and proximity to hydroelectric energy. The area hosts energetic exploration and world class VMS deposits such because the past-producing Duck Pond Mine. The Firm cautions that mineralization hosted on adjoining and/or close by properties just isn’t essentially indicative of mineralization on the Property.
Since buying the Property in January 2024, Anteros has compiled an in depth historic dataset that features airborne electromagnetic surveys, geochemical surveys, and over 15,000 metres of historic drilling. Documented mineralization contains sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite, and bornite in high-grade polymetallic zones. The recognized system has a strike size of over a kilometre and stays open at depth.
