SLAM Conducting IP Survey to Define Targets at Goodwin Copper-Nickel Project Before Drilling Campaign Starts
Advanced Survey To Define Targets Beneath Copper Nickel Cobalt Zones
MIRAMICHI, NB / ACCESS Newswire / June 30, 2025 / SLAM Exploration Ltd. ("SLAM" or the "Company") (TSXV-SXL) is pleased to announce that it has mobilized a geophysics crew to conduct Induced Polarization ("IP") surveys over the Granges, Farquharson and Logan copper nickel cobalt zones on its wholly owned Goodwin claims in the Bathurst Mining Camp of New Brunswick. The first IP line will cover a 64.90-meter core interval at a recovered grade of 1.49% copper equivalent ("CuEq") from 23.60 meters to 88.50 meters in drill hole GW2402 on the Granges Zone. This 1600-meter line is designed to cover both the Granges and Logan zones and test the area beneath the copper-nickel-cobalt zone in hole GW24-02. The Company expects to receive preliminary survey results within one week.
The Company also plans to test the Farquharson Zone. The initial line in this area will cross over a 60.60-meter core interval at a recovered grade of 0.84% CuEq from 72.90 meters to 133.50 meters in hole GW2403. The IP survey is expected to identify potential higher grade mineral zones and depth extensions of the Granges, Farquharson and Logan copper nickel cobalt zones. The recovered CuEq grades above were calculated using a recovery rate of 85% based on assays listed in the table below and previously reported in news releases August 7, 2024 for hole GW2402 and August 12, 2024 for hole GW2403.

The batch includes rush samples from the vicinity of trench JT25-01, where the Company recently excavated deeper to further expose a quartz vein. As previously disclosed in a news release dated May 20, 2025, four samples from this vein returned grades ranging from 18.50 g/t gold to 75.90 g/t gold.
About SLAM Exploration Ltd: SLAM Exploration Ltd. is a publicly traded resource company with a 40,000-hectare portfolio of mineral claim holdings in the mineral-rich province of New Brunswick. The Company commenced its 2025 exploration season with a new gold discovery on the Jake Lee gold project, reporting 4 samples grading 18.50 to 75.90 g/t gold in a news release dated May 20, 2025, Assays are pending on additional samples from the follow-up prospecting and trenching program.
The 2025 exploration program on the Goodwin Copper-nickel-cobalt project is now underway, beginning with the IP survey, which is intended to refine drill targets in and around three mineralized zones where the Company completed 15 diamond drill holes in 2024. Slam reported significant copper, nickel, and cobalt intercepts including a 64.90-meter core interval at a recovered grade of 1.49% CuEq from 23.60 meters to 88.50 meters in drill hole GW2402 on the Granges Zone (CuEq calculated at a recovery rate of 85% from assay results announced by press release August 7, 2024).
SLAM operates as a project generator and expects to receive significant cash and share consideration in 2025. Notably, on February 28, 2025 Slam received $9,000 in cash and 1,200,000 shares of Nine Mile Metals Inc. (CSE:NINE) pursuant to the Wedge project agreement.
