American Marconi Wireless News - Star Copper Summer Exploration Program Underway

Hardline Exploration Corp. is providing geological exploration and project management services at the Company's 6,829-hectare (~16,875 acre), 100% owned and fully permitted Star Project location. General details of recent activities have been received from the Exploration Manager and are outlined as follows:

Geology and Field Sampling

• Field crews have completed sampling of the Star North and Star East targets, ahead of schedule.

• A total of 114 rocks and 30 soil samples were collected at Star North (see Fig. 1) and 59 rock samples at Star East.

• Crews are currently finishing XRF analysis and preparing samples for shipment to the lab early next week.

• The geologists followed up on elevated soil anomalies, recorded Cu mineralization, and IP chargeability highs, identifying several well mineralized intrusive and porphyritic samples.

• Initial interpreted data and preliminary findings are anticipated in early July 2025.

Work Camp Operations

• The camp is fully operational with kitchen, dry room, laundry, core shack, cutting facilities and storage in place.

• Crews have worked constantly for over two weeks to rebuild the original camp and to gather and remove multiple loads of garbage and debris from the claim.

• Fuel resupply as well as groceries and camp equipment have been scheduled as part of the regular replenishment air lift operations plan.

Previous drilling has confirmed the presence of an extensive calc-alkalic porphyry copper-gold system on the Company's lands. This previous discovery has motivated the Company's fully-funded $2.5 million campaign, scheduled to run until August 15, 2025. The campaign will situate new drill pads to undertake a 3,500-metre diamond drill core sampling program based on six drill holes with an additional 650 metres of contingency drilling allocated. The exploration plan benefits from over $10 million in historical exploration efforts, including geophysical and geochemical surveys, trenching, soil sampling, and more than 13,000 meters of drilling from 49 diamond drill holes.

The extensive historical database now incorporates newly reinterpreted magnetic data to guide the current, high-impact drill campaign. The Company has also commenced testing of the contiguous Star North and Star East claims, which exhibit similar characteristics to the Star Main deposit, through targeted sampling and trenching to confirm the geotechnical work.

Darryl Jones, Star Copper's CEO, comments, "The initial outlook is optimistic and is progressing exactly as planned. The crew is onsite, the camp is up and running, the weather is favourable and initial findings based on all the highly detailed information at our disposal is driving the promise of significant potential. We look forward to providing regular updates as we move ahead with our exploration program across the project aimed at unearthing and expanding the true value of this exciting, underexplored property."
