Drilling campaign funded by Moxico Resources.

By Panorama Minero

Sable Resources Ltd. announced results from three of four holes drilled from February to April 2025 at the Pyros porphyry system, within the El Fierro Project in San Juan province. The drilling campaign was funded by Moxico Resources plc in accordance with the Letter Agreement signed between the Company and Moxico on February 27, 2025.

Drilling Highlights:

FZ-DH-25-92

• 20.0m of 0.58% Cu, 0.3 g/t Au, 0.13% Mo from 320.0 to 340.0m

Within a broader intercept of:

109.6m of 0.23% Cu, 0.15 g/t Au, 589 ppm Mo from 291.4 to 401.0m

• 116.2m of 0.24% Cu, 0.14 g/t Au, 197 ppm Mo from 18.0 to 134.2m

FZ-DH-25-68

• 6.9m of 1.01% Cu, 0.35 g/t Au, 258 ppm Mo from 676.8 to 683.7m

Within a broader intercept of:

48.1m of 0.31% Cu, 0.094 g/t Au, 82.5 ppm Mo from 645.6 to 693.7m

FZ-DH-25-76

• 49.0m of 0.22% Cu, 0.11 g/t Au, 108 ppm Mo from 365.0 to 414.0m

Within a broader intercept of:

110.0m of 0.17% Cu, 0.07 g/t Au, 113 ppm Mo from 322.0 to 432.0m

“The discovery of these two blind mineralized copper-gold-molybdenum breccias, separated by 500m, represents a significant milestone in our effort to understand the mineral potential of the Pyros porphyry system. Our initial drilling campaign that was completed in May 2022 was concentrated along an E-W drill fence that explored what we believed was the centre of the system, however, today's results confirm that our first phase drilling was mainly done over an early, low-grade porphyry phase. The new mineralized drill intercepts are genetically related to breccias and intermineral porphyry phases located at the margins of the low-grade centre. The newly discovered mineralized intercepts are open in the north-south direction as well as to depth, and may be part of a larger, well-mineralized porphyry breccia complex. Now that we better understand the geometry and ore controls of the system, it will allow us to expand our exploration efforts along the almost 4km of phyllic alteration that remain undrilled”, stated Dr. Ruben Padilla, President and CEO of Sable.
