           ”) is pleased to announce the third and final round of results from its 2025 reverse-circulation drill program on the Company’s Sugarloaf Peak Gold Project (the “Sugarloaf Peak Project”) in Arizona, which returned the highest gold grade on the project to date. Consistent with previous results from the Company’s 2025 drill program, these final drill results expand the deposit and they confirm excellent continuity of mineralization within an increasingly large gold deposit.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;h3&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Highlights of the drilling include:

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h3&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;ul&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           SP-25-28: 91.4 m @ 0.69 g/t Au, including 1.5 m @ 25.5 g/t Au, the highest gold grade on the property to date (including surface samples). This hole, along with hole 29, extended mineralization approximately 80 m to the south in a previously undrilled area (Figure 1). Hole 28 also intersected 57.9 m @ 0.29 g/t Au and 18.3 m @ 0.39 g/t Au (Table 1). 
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/ul&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;ul&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           SP-25-29: 123.4 m @ 0.31 g/t Au. This hole intersected a large thickness of mineralization starting at surface in a previously untested area on the southern margin of the deposit. Holes 29 and 28 (collared at the same location) show outstanding potential for continued expansion of the deposit laterally to the south/southwest and along strike to the southeast.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/ul&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;ul&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           SP-25-26: 56.4 m @ 0.43 g/t Au. Hole 26 tested a 270 x 340 m gap in the eastern end of the deposit and intersected thick mineralization, reinforcing the excellent continuity of mineralization at Sugarloaf Peak.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/ul&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          All six of the final drill holes intersected mineralization, growing the deposit laterally and reinforcing the strong continuity of mineralization on the project. The total drilling to date on the project, in 2025 and 2026, comprises 5,186 m drilled in 25 reverse-circulation drill holes.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Duncan Middlemiss, President and CEO of Arizona Metals commented: “We are very encouraged with these results from our 2025 drill program at Sugarloaf Peak. This has been the most successful drill campaign on the project to date, intersecting mineralization in 22 out of 25 holes, and showing significant expansion upside and excellent continuity of an already large gold deposit that crops out at surface. The Company’s drilling shows Sugarloaf to be a robust gold deposit, and we look forward to further developing its value.”

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) protocol which includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging was completed at Arizona Metals’ facilities located in Blythe, California, and Phoenix, Arizona. Reverse-circulation drill samples were collected onsite and securely transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs in Vancouver, Canada, and Reno, Nevada, for analysis.

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Gold content was determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge with ICP finish (ALS method Au-AA23). Silver and 47 other elements were analyzed by ICP methods with four-acid digestion (ALS method ME-MS61L).

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Until mineral deposits are actually mined and processed, Mineral Resources must be considered as estimates only. Mineral Resource Estimates that are not Mineral Reserves have not demonstrated economic viability. The estimation of Mineral Resources is inherently uncertain, involves subjective judgement about many relevant factors and may be materially affected by, among other things, environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors described in the Company's public disclosure available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration. The accuracy of any Mineral Resource Estimates is a function of the quantity and quality of available data, and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation, which may prove to be unreliable and depend, to a certain extent, upon the analysis of drilling results and statistical inferences that may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Mineral Resource Estimates may have to be re-estimated based on, among other things: (i) fluctuations in mineral prices; (ii) results of drilling, and development; (iii) results of future test mining and other testing; (iv) metallurgical testing and other studies; (v) results of geological and structural modeling including block model design; (vi) proposed mining operations, including dilution; (vii) the evaluation of future mine plans subsequent to the date of any estimates; and (viii) the possible failure to receive required permits, licenses and other approvals. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of a "Inferred" or "Indicated" Mineral Resource Estimate will ever be upgraded to a higher category. The Mineral Resource Estimates disclosed in this news release were reported using Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (the "CIM Standards") in accordance with National Instrument 43-101- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators ("NI 43-101").

          The Sugarloaf Peak Project is located in La Paz County, Arizona, on 4,400 acres of BLM claims. The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.) The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Metallurgical test work on the project by Arizona Metals indicates favorable gold recoveries in both oxide and sulfide mineralization, as previously announced (June 1, 2021 and September 14, 2023). Cyanide bottle-roll tests on oxide material achieved gold recoveries averaging 76% with recoveries as high as 95%; column leach testing achieved gold recoveries of up to 90%.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          As a result of these initial results, the Company engaged SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. to oversee metallurgical test work to develop low-cost flow sheets to recover gold from the sulphide zone. This test work on sulfide mineralization indicated gold recoveries of up to 85%. Mineralogy and diagnostic leach tests on the samples indicate the majority of gold is present as free gold within sulfides, primarily pyrite. As the samples tested demonstrated relatively soft material, it is likely that whole-ore leach would be the preferred processing method for sulfide material.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;strong&gt;&#xD;
      
          “We are encouraged by the continued intersection of mineralization in drill holes targeting areas beyond the Kay deposit. This is characteristic of volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) systems, which commonly occur in clustered deposits, and supports our exploration strategy to systematically test the largely unexplored 10-kilometre strike length of highly prospective stratigraphy across the project. In addition, the Kay deposit continues to demonstrate strong geological continuity, and these latest drill results have the potential to meaningfully expand the overall resource volume.”

           David Smith, VP Exploration for Arizona Metals, said:
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;strong&gt;&#xD;
      
          “We continue to explore the extensive strike length of the prospective horizons at Kay, and we are pleased by the widespread evidence of mineralized systems on the property. These recent results show that the Northwest target warrants more drilling, and we have additional holes planned and underway.”
         &#xD;

           Within the Kay deposit, drill hole KM-25-195 intersected 22.4 m @ 1.1% CuEq in a shallow portion of the deposit where the MRE indicated that additional drilling was warranted (Figure 1). This drill hole proved continuity in this area of the deposit, which has the potential to add additional tonnage.

    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           On the Northwest target, drill hole KM-25-197 intersected 0.3 m @ 0.9% CuEq. This hole was drilled to the east from Pad 15, into a previously untested portion of the prospective horizon on the property. It targeted a surface sample within a mapped mineral horizon that returned 3.2% Cu (Figure 3). Although narrow, this is an encouraging result in an unexplored area of the property.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Company is fully funded and on track to deliver a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) for its Kay Mine deposit during the first quarter of 2026. Ongoing exploration on the Kay project includes 2,000 m of drilling in the first quarter, a property-wide hyperspectral airborne survey, and AI studies to refine exploration targeting. Total drilling on the Kay project to date is approximately 145,000 meters.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Additionally, assays are pending for six drill holes from the Company’s 5,000-meter reverse circulation drilling at the Company’s Sugarloaf Peak Gold Project (the “Sugarloaf Peak Project”) in La Paz County, Arizona. Results received to date have been positive, returning broad intervals of mineralization that have significantly expanded the deposit footprint along strike, at depth, and laterally. Building on these initial positive results, the Company is advancing a comprehensive exploration program designed to further evaluate existing data while incorporating modern exploration techniques. This work will include geophysical surveys (IP-resistivity, magnetics, and radiometrics), geochemical programs (systematic surface rock sampling and hyperspectral airborne survey) and AI -driven data analysis. The objective of the integrated exploration program is to combine all past data with new, consistent, deposit-scale data in order to optimize drill targeting for programs planned later in 2026.

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) protocol which includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging and sampling were completed at Arizona Metals’ core handling facilities located in Phoenix and Black Canyon City, Arizona. Drill core was diamond sawn on site and half drill-core samples were securely transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs in Vancouver, Canada, and Reno, Nevada, for analysis.

          The true width of mineralization is estimated to be 50% to 99% of reported core width, with an average of 76%. (2) Assumptions used in USD for the copper and gold metal equivalent calculations were metal prices of $4.63/lb Copper, $1937/oz Gold, $25.20/oz Silver, $1.78/lb Zinc, and $1.02/lb Pb. Metal Equivalent calculations used assumed metal recoveries, based on a preliminary review of historic data by SRK and ProcessIQ, were 93% for copper, 92% for zinc, 90% for lead, 72% silver, and 70% for gold. The following equation was used to calculate copper equivalence: CuEq = Copper (%) (93% rec.) + (Gold (g/t) x 0.61)(70% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) x 0.0079)(72% rec.) + (Zinc (%) x 0.3844)(92% rec.) + (Lead (%) x 0.2203)(90% rec.). The following equation was used to calculate gold equivalence: AuEq = Gold (g/t)(70% rec.) + (Copper (%) x 1.638)(93% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) x 0.01291)(72% rec.) + (Zinc (%) x 0.6299)(92% rec.) +(Lead (%) x 0.3609)(90% rec.). Analyzed metal equivalent calculations are reported for illustrative purposes only. The metal chosen for reporting on an equivalent basis is the one that contributes the most dollar value after accounting for assumed recoveries.

          ”) is pleased to announce the second round of results from its 2025 reverse-circulation drill program on the Company’s Sugarloaf Peak Gold Project (the “Sugarloaf Peak Project”) in Arizona. These drill results continue to expand the deposit laterally to the southwest, along strike both northwest and southeast, and at depth. They also confirm excellent continuity within the deposit. Highlights of the drilling include:

            This long drill intercept confirmed the continuation of mineralization in a large area of sparse drill holes in the eastern portion of the deposit. These results warrant additional drilling in this area.

            This hole is located in an undrilled portion in the center of the deposit and demonstrated excellent continuity among other encouraging drill holes. This drill hole includes the highest gold assay to date in the Company’s drilling, 12.57 g/t Au over 1.5 m (173.7-175.3 m), indicating good potential for higher grade within the deposit.

        &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
          
            Stepping out 120 m to the south of previous drilling, this hole, together with SP-25-15, extended the deposit laterally to the southwest along 350 m of strike length. The Company’s nine drill holes in this area have added a broad swath along the southwestern part of the deposit that measures approximately 135 m wide and stretches along almost a kilometer of northwest-southeast strike length. A tenth hole in this area is pending assays.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Mineralization was intersected in the majority of drill holes and succeeded in expanding the deposit and demonstrating good continuity between widely spaced previous drill holes. Assay results from the remaining 6 drill holes are pending. The total drilling to date on the project, in 2025 and 2026, comprises 5,186 m drilled in 25 reverse-circulation drill holes.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          “We are very encouraged by the continued expansion potential at Sugarloaf Peak. The results from this drill program have delivered a meaningful increase in the scale of the deposit, with strong continuity demonstrated along a broad southwest corridor where mineralization remains open and highly prospective. With six additional drill holes pending at the lab and active exploration underway to refine and prioritize further step-out targets, we believe Sugarloaf is well positioned for continued growth through additional drilling later this year.”

            Drilled to the southwest at the same location as SP-25-17 (which was drilled to the northeast) this hole contributed to the southwesterly expansion of the deposit.

            These holes were drilled from the same pad, hole 19 to the southwest and hole 20 to the northeast. Together, they confirm mineralization expanding to the southwest of previous drilling.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Kay Mine Project contains a current mineral resource estimate (MRE) of 9.28 million tonnes grading 1.39 g/t Au, 27.6 g/t Ag, 0.97% Cu, 0.33% Pb, and 2.39% Zn in the Indicated category, and 0.86 million tonnes grading 1.06 g/t Au, 15.4 g/t Ag, 0.87% Cu, 0.20% Pb, and 1.68% Zn in the Inferred category, at a base-case cut-off grade of 1.00 % CuEq. Copper equivalent MRE grades are 9.28 million tonnes @ 3.18% CuEq in the Indicated category and 0.86 million tonnes @ 2.44% CuEq in the Inferred category.

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) protocol which includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging was completed at Arizona Metals’ facilities located in Blythe, California, and Phoenix, Arizona. Reverse-circulation drill samples were collected onsite and securely transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs in Vancouver, Canada, and Reno, Nevada, for analysis.

          Until mineral deposits are actually mined and processed, Mineral Resources must be considered as estimates only. Mineral Resource Estimates that are not Mineral Reserves have not demonstrated economic viability. The estimation of Mineral Resources is inherently uncertain, involves subjective judgement about many relevant factors and may be materially affected by, among other things, environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors described in the Company's public disclosure available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration. The accuracy of any Mineral Resource Estimates is a function of the quantity and quality of available data, and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation, which may prove to be unreliable and depend, to a certain extent, upon the analysis of drilling results and statistical inferences that may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Mineral Resource Estimates may have to be re-estimated based on, among other things: (i) fluctuations in mineral prices; (ii) results of drilling, and development; (iii) results of future test mining and other testing; (iv) metallurgical testing and other studies; (v) results of geological and structural modeling including block model design; (vi) proposed mining operations, including dilution; (vii) the evaluation of future mine plans subsequent to the date of any estimates; and (viii) the possible failure to receive required permits, licenses and other approvals. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of a "Inferred" or "Indicated" Mineral Resource Estimate will ever be upgraded to a higher category. The Mineral Resource Estimates disclosed in this news release were reported using Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (the "CIM Standards") in accordance with National Instrument 43-101- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators ("NI 43-101").

          The Company is fully funded and on track to deliver a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) in the first quarter of 2026, for its Kay Mine project (the “Kay Project”) located in Yavapai County, Arizona. Ongoing exploration drilling throughout the first quarter is planned with 2,000 m at the Kay Project. After encouraging current drilling results at the Sugarloaf Peak Project, the Company is conducting a comprehensive, detailed program to evaluate current data and gather additional modern exploration data, including geophysics (IP-resistivity, magnetics, radiometrics), geochemistry (surface rock-sample grid, hyperspectral airborne survey) and AI studies. The intent of the planned exploration program is to integrate all past data with new, consistent, deposit-wide data in order to optimize drill spending later in 2026.

          The Sugarloaf Peak Project is located in La Paz County, Arizona, on 4,400 acres of BLM claims. The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.) The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Metallurgical test work on the project by Arizona Metals indicates favorable gold recoveries in both oxide and sulfide mineralization, as previously announced (June 1, 2021 and September 14, 2023). Cyanide bottle-roll tests on oxide material achieved gold recoveries averaging 76% with recoveries as high as 95%; column leach testing achieved gold recoveries of up to 90%.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          As a result of these initial results, the Company engaged SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. to oversee metallurgical test work to develop low-cost flow sheets to recover gold from the sulphide zone. This test work on sulfide mineralization indicated gold recoveries of up to 85%. Mineralogy and diagnostic leach tests on the samples indicate the majority of gold is present as free gold within sulfides, primarily pyrite. As the samples tested demonstrated relatively soft material, it is likely that whole-ore leach would be the preferred processing method for sulfide material.

      &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           This was an infill hole in a 300 x 300 m gap in the north-central part of the deposit; together with holes 12 and 13, this confirms good continuity of mineralization in this area, adding significant volume to the deposit.

            This was a twin of historic hole WW-9 in the central portion of the deposit.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Mineralization was intersected in all nine drill holes assayed to date in an area covering 900 m along the strike of mineralization and 800 m in width. These initial drill results are consistent with the drill program goals, as these results demonstrate mineralization in all infill holes and extend mineralization in all step-out holes received to date. In several drill holes, mineralization was also extended at a depth below previous drilling by 40-75 m. Assay results from the remaining 16 drill holes are pending. The total drilling to date on the project, in 2025, comprises 5,186 m drilled in 25 reverse-circulation drill holes.

          Duncan Middlemiss, President and CEO of Arizona Metals commented: “We are pleased to confirm the expansion potential at Sugarloaf Peak. This is a very large mineralized system that our drilling has expanded, not only laterally but within the deposit. In particular, our drilling confirmed excellent continuity of mineralization, a real benefit in a bulk-mining open-pit scenario. We intend to continue to explore Sugarloaf Peak and test its size within the deposit, at depth, and along strike.”

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) protocol which includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging was completed at Arizona Metals’ facilities located in Blythe, California, and Phoenix, Arizona. Reverse-circulation drill samples were collected onsite and securely transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs in Vancouver, Canada, and Reno, Nevada, for analysis.

          Until mineral deposits are actually mined and processed, Mineral Resources must be considered as estimates only. Mineral Resource Estimates that are not Mineral Reserves have not demonstrated economic viability. The estimation of Mineral Resources is inherently uncertain, involves subjective judgement about many relevant factors and may be materially affected by, among other things, environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors described in the Company's public disclosure available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration. The accuracy of any Mineral Resource Estimates is a function of the quantity and quality of available data, and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation, which may prove to be unreliable and depend, to a certain extent, upon the analysis of drilling results and statistical inferences that may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Mineral Resource Estimates may have to be re-estimated based on, among other things: (i) fluctuations in mineral prices; (ii) results of drilling, and development; (iii) results of future test mining and other testing; (iv) metallurgical testing and other studies; (v) results of geological and structural modeling including block model design; (vi) proposed mining operations, including dilution; (vii) the evaluation of future mine plans subsequent to the date of any estimates; and (viii) the possible failure to receive required permits, licenses and other approvals. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of a "Inferred" or "Indicated" Mineral Resource Estimate will ever be upgraded to a higher category. The Mineral Resource Estimates disclosed in this news release were reported using Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (the "CIM Standards") in accordance with National Instrument 43-101- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators ("NI 43-101").

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Sugarloaf Peak Project is located in La Paz County, Arizona, on 4,400 acres of BLM claims. The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.) The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Metallurgical test work on the project by Arizona Metals indicates favorable gold recoveries in both oxide and sulfide mineralization, as previously announced (June 1, 2021 and September 14, 2023). Cyanide bottle-roll tests on oxide material achieved gold recoveries averaging 76% with recoveries as high as 95%; column leach testing achieved gold recoveries of up to 90%.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          As a result of these initial results, the Company engaged SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. to oversee metallurgical test work to develop low-cost flow sheets to recover gold from the sulphide zone. This test work on sulfide mineralization indicated gold recoveries of up to 85%. Mineralogy and diagnostic leach tests on the samples indicate the majority of gold is present as free gold within sulfides, primarily pyrite. As the samples tested demonstrated relatively soft material, it is likely that whole-ore leach would be the preferred processing method for sulfide material.

          In the Kay2 Zone within the Kay Deposit, KM-25-177A intersected 4.3 m @ 2.6% CuEq (Table 1, Figure 1). This extends mineralization 280 m below the previous deepest drill intercept on the property (KM-24-173, 2.4 m @ 2.7% CuEq), and brings the total down-dip length of drilled mineralization on the project to approximately 1,350 m.

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Drilling along the Kay North Extension target has extended drilled mineralization approximately 440 m to the north, demonstrating continuity of the Kay mineralized horizon in this direction (Table 1, Figure 2, Figure 3). Results from this drilling include 0.6 m @ 4.8% CuEq in KM-25-185 and 0.3 m @ 3.2% CuEq. Although narrow, these and other intercepts shown in Table 1 demonstrate a consistent horizon of mineralization stretching north from the Kay Deposit. Additional holes in this area intersected anomalous Cu, Zn, and Au along this same horizon and several other parallel horizons.

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;strong&gt;&#xD;
      
          “We are excited that these new drill results demonstrate depth potential in the Kay Deposit as well as on-strike potential to the north. Both are encouraging for expansion of the Kay Deposit and for our exploration efforts on targets outside the currently known Kay Deposit.”

          Additionally, 5,000 m of reverse circulation drilling is planned at the Company’s Sugarloaf Peak Gold Project (the “Sugarloaf Peak Project”) in La Paz County, Arizona. Drilling and road contractors have been chosen for the project and road crews have been mobilized. The geology team is ready and drilling is expected to begin in mid-September.

          The Kay project contains a current mineral resource estimate (MRE) of 9.28 million tonnes grading 1.39 g/t Au, 27.6 g/t Ag, 0.97% Cu, 0.33% Pb, and 2.39% Zn in the Indicated category, and 0.86 million tonnes grading 1.06 g/t Au, 15.4 g/t Ag, 0.87% Cu, 0.20% Pb, and 1.68% Zn in the Inferred category, at a base-case cut-off grade of 1.00 % CuEq. Copper equivalent MRE grades are 9.28 million tonnes @ 3.18% CuEq in the Indicated category and 0.86 million tonnes @ 2.44% CuEq in the Inferred category.

          The Company also owns 100% of the Sugarloaf Peak Project, in La Paz County, which is located on 4,400 acres of BLM claims. The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.)

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) protocol which includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging and sampling were completed at Arizona Metals’ core handling facilities located in Phoenix and Black Canyon City, Arizona. Drill core was diamond sawn on site and half drill-core samples were securely transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs in Vancouver, Canada, and Reno, Nevada, for analysis.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           Gold content was determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge with ICP finish (ALS method Au-AA23). Silver and 32 other elements were analyzed by ICP methods with four-acid digestion (ALS method ME-ICP61a). Over-limit samples for Au, Ag, Cu, and Zn were determined by ore-grade analyses Au-GRA21, Ag-OG62, Cu-OG62, and Zn-OG62, respectively.

          ALS Laboratories is independent of Arizona Metals Corp. and its Vancouver and Reno facilities are ISO 17025 accredited. ALS also performed its own internal QA/QC procedures to assure the accuracy and integrity of results. Parameters for ALS’ internal and Arizona Metals’ external blind quality control samples were acceptable for the samples analyzed. Arizona Metals is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Until mineral deposits are actually mined and processed, Mineral Resources must be considered as estimates only. Mineral Resource Estimates that are not Mineral Reserves have not demonstrated economic viability. The estimation of Mineral Resources is inherently uncertain, involves subjective judgement about many relevant factors and may be materially affected by, among other things, environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors described in the Company's public disclosure available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration. The accuracy of any Mineral Resource Estimates is a function of the quantity and quality of available data, and of the assumptions made and judgments used in engineering and geological interpretation, which may prove to be unreliable and depend, to a certain extent, upon the analysis of drilling results and statistical inferences that may ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Mineral Resource Estimates may have to be re-estimated based on, among other things: (i) fluctuations in mineral prices; (ii) results of drilling, and development; (iii) results of future test mining and other testing; (iv) metallurgical testing and other studies; (v) results of geological and structural modeling including block model design; (vi) proposed mining operations, including dilution; (vii) the evaluation of future mine plans subsequent to the date of any estimates; and (viii) the possible failure to receive required permits, licenses and other approvals. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of a "Inferred" or "Indicated" Mineral Resource Estimate will ever be upgraded to a higher category. The Mineral Resource Estimates disclosed in this news release were reported using Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Definition Standards for Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (the "CIM Standards") in accordance with National Instrument 43-101- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects of the Canadian Securities Administrators ("NI 43-101").

          The true width of mineralization is estimated to be 50% to 99% of reported core width, with an average of 76%. (2) Assumptions used in USD for the copper and gold metal equivalent calculations were metal prices of $4.63/lb Copper, $1937/oz Gold, $25.20/oz Silver, $1.78/lb Zinc, and $1.02/lb Pb. Metal Equivalent calculations used assumed metal recoveries, based on a preliminary review of historic data by SRK and ProcessIQ, were 93% for copper, 92% for zinc, 90% for lead, 72% silver, and 70% for gold. The following equation was used to calculate copper equivalence: CuEq = Copper (%) (93% rec.) + (Gold (g/t) x 0.61)(70% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) x 0.0079)(72% rec.) + (Zinc (%) x 0.3844)(92% rec.) + (Lead (%) x 0.2203)(90% rec.). The following equation was used to calculate gold equivalence: AuEq = Gold (g/t)(70% rec.) + (Copper (%) x 1.638)(93% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) x 0.01291)(72% rec.) + (Zinc (%) x 0.6299)(92% rec.) +(Lead (%) x 0.3609)(90% rec.). Analyzed metal equivalent calculations are reported for illustrative purposes only. The metal chosen for reporting on an equivalent basis is the one that contributes the most dollar value after accounting for assumed recoveries.

          Arizona Metals Corp owns 100% of the Kay Mine Project in Yavapai County, which is located on 1,669 acres of patented and BLM mining claims and 193 acres of private land that are not subject to any royalties. The Kay Mine Project is a steeply dipping VMS deposit that has been defined from a depth of 60 m to at least 900 m. It is open for expansion on strike and at depth.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Company also owns 100% of the Sugarloaf Peak Project, in La Paz County, which is located on 4,400 acres of BLM claims. The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.)

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.

          Toronto, June 30, 2025 – Arizona Metals Corp. (TSX:AMC, OTCQX:AZMCF) (the “Company” or “Arizona Metals”) is pleased to announce an initial Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) for its 100% owned Kay Mine Project (the “Kay Project”) located in Yavapai County, Arizona.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;strong&gt;&#xD;
      
          Highlights of the Kay Project MRE are as follows:
         &#xD;
    &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;strong&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           ﻿
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;ul&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           The underground MRE includes 9.28 million tonnes grading 1.39 g/t Au, 27.6 g/t Ag, 0.97% Cu, 0.33% Pb, and 2.39% Zn in the Indicated category, and 0.86 million tonnes grading 1.06 g/t Au, 15.4 g/t Ag, 0.87% Cu, 0.20% Pb, and 1.68% Zn in the Inferred category, at a base-case cut-off grade of 1.00% CuEq.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           Copper equivalent MRE grades are 9.28 million tonnes @ 3.18% CuEq in the Indicated category and 0.86 million tonnes @ 2.44% CuEq in the Inferred category.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;strong&gt;&#xD;
        
           Quality Asset:
          &#xD;
      &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
          
            High grade, with good geometry and continuity suitable for bulk underground mining methods.
           &#xD;
        &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;

           Camp Potential:
          &#xD;
      &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
          
            The initial MRE sits within less than 5% of the 10-km long strike of folded prospective host rocks in the Kay Project.
           &#xD;
        &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

           Infill Potential:

      &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
          
            This initial MRE has clear potential to expand between existing drill holes within the deposit, and to upgrade Inferred resource.
           &#xD;
        &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;

           Expansion Potential:

      &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
          
            The deposit remains open for expansion beyond this initial MRE both along strike and at depth.
           &#xD;
        &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;

           Continued Advancement:

      &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
          
            Following the completion of additional metallurgical testwork, a preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”) is planned for release in the second half of 2025.
           &#xD;
        &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           The Company is delivering and executing on all of its previously stated goals for 2025 and looks forward to continuing the development of the Company’s strong assets.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          “The release of our initial Mineral Resource Estimate marks a major milestone for Arizona Metals and validates not only the scale, but more importantly, the quality of the Kay Project. With over 650 million pounds of copper equivalent in the Indicated category alone—and with the deposit remaining open in multiple directions—we see significant opportunity for expansion through continued drilling. We believe this resource represents just the beginning. With a strong treasury and a PEA on track for release later this year, we’re excited to advance the Kay Project toward becoming one of the top undeveloped VMS projects in the U.S.”

Armitage conducted site visits to the Kay Mine property on two occasions, on October 25–26, 2023, and April 7–8, 2024. The mineral resource was peer reviewed by Ben Eggers, MAIG, P.Geo., of SGS Geological Services, an independent Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101. Eggers conducted a site visit to the Kay Mine property on May 30, 2025.

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) protocol which includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging and sampling were completed at Arizona Metals’ core handling facilities located in Phoenix and Black Canyon City, Arizona. Drill core was diamond sawn on site and half drill-core samples were securely transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs in Vancouver, Canada, and Reno, Nevada, for analysis. Gold content was determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge with ICP finish (ALS method Au-AA23). Silver and 32 other elements were analyzed by ICP methods with four-acid digestion (ALS method ME-ICP61a). Over-limit samples for Au, Ag, Cu, and Zn were determined by ore-grade analyses Au-GRA21, Ag-OG62, Cu-OG62, and Zn-OG62, respectively.

          ALS Laboratories is independent of Arizona Metals Corp. and its Vancouver and Reno facilities are ISO 17025 accredited. ALS also performed its own internal QA/QC procedures to assure the accuracy and integrity of results. Parameters for ALS’ internal and Arizona Metals’ external blind quality control samples were acceptable for the samples analyzed. Arizona Metals is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein.

           The effective date of the Kay Mine Project MRE is June 17, 2025. This is the close-out date for the final mineral resource drilling database.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           The mineral resource was estimated by Allan Armitage, Ph.D., P.Geo., of SGS Geological Services, an independent Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, who conducted site visits on October 25–26, 2023, and April 7–8, 2024. The mineral resource was peer reviewed by Ben Eggers, MAIG, P.Geo., of SGS Geological Services, an independent Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101, who conducted a site visit on May 30, 2025.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           The classification of the current MRE into Indicated and Inferred mineral resources is consistent with current 2014 CIM Definition Standards – For Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate and numbers may not add due to rounding.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           All mineral resources are presented undiluted and in situ, constrained by continuous 3D wireframe models (considered mineable shapes), and are considered to have reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           Mineral resources which are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that most Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           The MRE is based on a validated drill hole database which includes data from 234 surface diamond drill holes completed between 2020 and May 2025, totaling 133,912 m (including wedge holes). The resource database totals 11,533 assay intervals representing 14,006 m of data.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           Grades for Au, Ag, Cu, Pb and Zn are estimated for each mineralization domain using 1.50 m capped composites assigned to that domain. To generate grade within the blocks, the inverse distance squared (ID2) interpolation method was used for all domains.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           Average density values were assigned to each domain based on a database of 2,307 samples.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           Based on the size, shape, and orientation of the deposit, it is envisioned that the deposits may be mined using underground bulk mining methods such as longhole stoping. The MRE is reported at a base-case cut-off grade of 1.00% CuEq. The mineral resource grade blocks are quantified above the base-case cut-off and within the constraining mineralized wireframes (considered mineable shapes).
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           The underground base-case cut-off grade of 1.00% CuEq considers metal prices of $4.10/lb Cu, $1.00/lb Pb, $1.35/lb Zn, $2,200/oz Au and $26/oz Ag; metal recoveries of 92% for Cu, 76% for Pb, 85% for Zn, 76% for Au and 75% for Ag; a mining cost of US$49.00/t rock; and processing, treatment and refining, transportation and G&amp;amp;A cost of US$29/t mineralized material.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;li&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/li&gt;&#xD;

          The Company is fully funded to complete its planned drilling through the end of 2025 and is on track to deliver a PEA in the second half of 2025 for the Kay Project. G Mining Services Inc. (“G Mining”) has audited the MRE and has been engaged to complete the PEA. The current phase of resource drilling is complete, and the Company has mobilized two drill rigs to the Kay North Extension target, to be followed by drilling on the North-Central and Western Targets at the Kay Project. These areas will be drilled for the first time from newly permitted and strategically positioned drill pads, designed to optimize targeting and access. The Company plans 10,000 m of exploration drilling at these targets with holes ranging from 300 m to 900 m in depth. The Company has chosen these high-priority targets based on analysis of geologic, geochemical, and geophysical exploration data generated to date on the project.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Additionally, 5,000 m of reverse circulation drilling is planned at the Company’s Sugarloaf Peak Gold Project (the “Sugarloaf Peak Project”) in La Paz County, Arizona. Drilling and road-construction contractors have been chosen for the Sugarloaf Peak Project, and the Company is preparing to mobilize crews during Q3.

The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.). The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource.

          Toronto, June 24, 2025 – Arizona Metals Corp. (TSX:AMC, OTCQX:AZMCF) (the “Company” or “Arizona Metals”) is pleased to announce assay results from one drill hole in the Kay2 Zone at the Kay Project in Arizona.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Drill hole KM-25-181 intersected 29.6 m @ 10.7 g/t AuEq, including 13.6 m @ 17.8 g/t AuEq (Figure 1, Table 1). Drill hole 181 is among the most gold-rich holes drilled in the deposit to date and includes the project’s third-highest gold assay from drilling: 35.8 g/t Au (756.2–757.1 m). The hole is located approximately 90 m below, and deeper in the deposit than, hole KM-24-166, the discovery hole in the Kay2 Zone. This is a significant intercept and will be incorporated in the upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”).
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           Duncan Middlemiss, President and CEO of Arizona Metals, comments:
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          “The high gold grades in the Kay2 Zone continue to indicate a robust mineralized system at Kay and illustrate additional potential for the Kay2 Zone to add value to the overall deposit. Results from hole 181 will be included in the upcoming mineral resource estimate for the Kay project, which remains on track for release this month.”
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          To date, drilling in the Kay2 Zone has demonstrated dimensions of 100 m along strike and 160 m vertically, with consistently high gold grades throughout. The Kay2 Zone is located approximately 100 m north of previously drilled mineralization in the Kay deposit. With the completion of recent drill holes, Arizona Metals has drilled a total of 135,000 meters on the property.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Company is fully funded and on track to deliver a Mineral Resource Estimate this month, followed by a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) in the second half of 2025, for its Kay Mine Project (the “Kay Project”) located in Yavapai County, Arizona. G Mining Services Inc. (“G Mining”) has been engaged to audit the MRE and complete the PEA. The current phase of resource drilling is complete, and the Company has mobilized the two drill rigs to the Kay North Extension target, to be followed by drilling on the North-Central and Western Targets. These areas will be drilled for the first time from newly-permitted and strategically positioned drill pads, designed to optimize targeting and access. The Company plans 10,000 m of exploration drilling at these targets with holes ranging from 300 m to 900 m in depth. The Company has chosen these high-priority targets based on analysis of geologic, geochemical, and geophysical exploration data generated to date on the project.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Additionally, 5,000 m of reverse-circulation drilling is planned at the Company’s Sugarloaf Peak Gold Project (the “Sugarloaf Peak Project”) in La Paz County, Arizona. Drilling and road-construction contractors have been chosen for the project, and the Company is preparing to mobilize crews during Q3. The Company is executing on all of its previously stated goals for 2025 and looks forward to continuing the development of the Company’s strong assets.
         &#xD;

          Arizona Metals Corp owns 100% of the Kay Project in Yavapai County, which is located on 1,669 acres of patented and BLM mining claims and 193 acres of private land that are not subject to any royalties. An historic estimate by Exxon Minerals in 1982 reported a “proven and probable reserve of 6.4 million short tons at a grade of 2.2% copper, 2.8 g/t gold, 3.03% zinc, and 55 g/t silver.” The historic estimate at the Kay Mine Project was reported by Exxon Minerals in 1982 (Fellows, M.L., 1982, Kay Mine massive sulphide deposit: Internal report prepared for Exxon Minerals Company).

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Kay Project’s historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to be a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource. The Kay Project is a steeply dipping VMS deposit that has been defined from a depth of 60 m to at least 900 m. It is open for expansion on strike and at depth.

          The Company also owns 100% of the Sugarloaf Peak Project, in La Paz County, which is located on 4,400 acres of BLM claims. The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.). The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used.

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) protocol which includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging and sampling were completed at Arizona Metals’ core handling facilities located in Phoenix and Black Canyon City, Arizona. Drill core was diamond sawn on site and half drill-core samples were securely transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs in Vancouver, Canada, and Reno, Nevada, for analysis.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Gold content was determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge with ICP finish (ALS method Au-AA23). Silver and 32 other elements were analyzed by ICP methods with four-acid digestion (ALS method ME-ICP61a). Over-limit samples for Au, Ag, Cu, and Zn were determined by ore-grade analyses Au-GRA21, Ag-OG62, Cu-OG62, and Zn-OG62, respectively.

          The true width of mineralization is estimated to be 50% to 99% of reported core width, with an average of 76%. (2) Assumptions used in USD for the copper and gold metal equivalent calculations were metal prices of $4.63/lb copper, $1,937/oz gold, $25.20/oz silver, $1.78/lb zinc, and $1.02/lb lead. Metal equivalent calculations used assumed metal recoveries, based on a preliminary review of historic data by SRK and ProcessIQ, of 93% for copper, 92% for zinc, 90% for lead, 72% for silver, and 70% for gold. The following equation was used to calculate copper equivalence: CuEq = Copper (%) (93% rec.) + (Gold (g/t) × 0.61)(70% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) × 0.0079)(72% rec.) + (Zinc (%) × 0.3844)(92% rec.) + (Lead (%) × 0.2203)(90% rec.). The following equation was used to calculate gold equivalence: AuEq = Gold (g/t)(70% rec.) + (Copper (%) × 1.638)(93% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) × 0.01291)(72% rec.) + (Zinc (%) × 0.6299)(92% rec.) + (Lead (%) × 0.3609)(90% rec.). Analyzed metal-equivalent calculations are reported for illustrative purposes only. The metal chosen for reporting on an equivalent basis is the one that contributes the most dollar value after accounting for assumed recoveries.

           Toronto, June 18, 2025 – Arizona Metals
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

          MC, OTCQX:AZMCF) (the “Company” or “Arizona Metals”) announces that its Annual and Special Meeting (the “Meeting”) of shareholders (“Shareholders”) of the Company was convened as scheduled on June 18, 2025, and adjourned until June 26, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) at the same virtual venue. The next proxy voting cut-off deadline will be 11:00 a.m. (Toronto time) on Tuesday, June 24, 2025. Details to access the Meeting for those Shareholders who wish to attend and participate at the Meeting remain the same and are reproduced below.

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Chair adjourned the Meeting in an effort to encourage greater Shareholder participation at the Meeting. By the original proxy cut-off time the Company had received proxies from shareholders representing less than half of its outstanding shares, and a number of Shareholders contacted the Company citing delays in meeting the voting cut-off deadline for the Meeting or issues with voting their shares online. The board of directors of the Company has decided that it is in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders to postpone the Meeting to allow for a broader level of participation by Shareholders to ensure good corporate governance.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;

          Arizona Metals Corp owns 100% of the Kay Project in Yavapai County, which is located on 1,669 acres of patented and BLM mining claims and 193 acres of private land that are not subject to any royalties. An historic estimate by Exxon Minerals in 1982 reported a “proven and probable reserve of 6.4 million short tons at a grade of 2.2% copper, 2.8 g/t gold, 3.03% zinc, and 55 g/t silver.” The historic estimate at the Kay Mine Project was reported by Exxon Minerals in 1982 (Fellows, M.L., 1982, Kay Mine massive sulphide deposit: Internal report prepared for Exxon Minerals Company).
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Kay Project’s historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to be a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Kay Project is a steeply dipping VMS deposit that has been defined from a depth of 60 m to at least 900 m. It is open for expansion on strike and at depth.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

          The Company also owns 100% of the Sugarloaf Peak Project, in La Paz County, which is located on 4,400 acres of BLM claims. The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.).

          The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.

          To date, drilling in the Kay2 Zone has demonstrated dimensions of ~100 m along strike and ~140 m vertically. Drilling shows good continuity in mineralization in the Kay2 Zone and adjacent mineralization in the main Kay deposit to the south. The Kay2 Zone is located approximately 100 m north of previously drilled mineralization in the Kay deposit.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;

           Duncan Middlemiss, President and CEO of Arizona Metals, commented:
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          “We are encouraged by the latest drill results from the Kay2 Zone, which continue to demonstrate significant expansion potential. The intercepts show substantial thicknesses, consistent grades, and strong continuity—key indicators of a robust mineralized system. These results reinforce our confidence in the Kay2 Zone and support our view that these results will contribute to the overall tonnage of the Kay deposit. We believe this will be clearly reflected in the updated mineral resource estimate, which remains on track for release in the second quarter of 2025.”
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Company also received approval for one additional drill pad from the Bureau of Land Management under the existing Notice of Intent to Explore permit. This pad provides additional opportunities to test the Kay North Extension target where the Kay mineralized horizon continues north from the Kay deposit. One drill hole in the Kay2 Zone, KM-25-176, encountered no significant assays (Table 1). Deep drill hole KM-25-177, targeted at the depth extension of the main Kay deposit, was lost before reaching target depth due to difficult drilling. With the completion of recent drill holes, Arizona Metals has drilled a total of 133,000 meters on the property.

          Arizona Metals Corp owns 100% of the Kay Project in Yavapai County, which is located on 1,669 acres of patented and BLM mining claims and 193 acres of private land that are not subject to any royalties. An historic estimate by Exxon Minerals in 1982 reported a “proven and probable reserve of 6.4 million short tons at a grade of 2.2% copper, 2.8 g/t gold, 3.03% zinc, and 55 g/t silver.” The historic estimate at the Kay Mine Project was reported by Exxon Minerals in 1982 (Fellows, M.L., 1982, Kay Mine massive sulphide deposit: Internal report prepared for Exxon Minerals Company).

          The Kay Project’s historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to be a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource. The Kay Project is a steeply dipping VMS deposit that has been defined from a depth of 60 m to at least 900 m. It is open for expansion on strike and at depth.

          The Company also owns 100% of the Sugarloaf Peak Project, in La Paz County, which is located on 4,400 acres of BLM claims. The Sugarloaf Peak Project is a heap-leach, open-pit target and has a historic estimate of “100 million tons containing 1.5 million ounces gold” at a grade of 0.5 g/t (Dausinger, N.E., 1983, Phase 1 Drill Program and Evaluation of Gold-Silver Potential, Sugarloaf Peak Project, Quartzsite, Arizona: Report for Westworld Inc.). The historic estimate at the Sugarloaf Peak Project was reported by Westworld Resources in 1983. The historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource.

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a QA/QC protocol that includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging and sampling were completed at Arizona Metals’ core facilities in Phoenix and Black Canyon City, Arizona. Drill core was diamond sawn on site and half core was securely transported to ALS (Tucson) for preparation; pulps were analyzed at ALS Vancouver and Reno. Gold by fire assay, 30-g charge with ICP finish (Au-AA23). Silver and 32 other elements by ICP with four-acid digestion (ME-ICP61a). Over-limits by ore-grade analyses (Au-GRA21, Ag-OG62, Cu-OG62, Zn-OG62). ALS is independent of Arizona Metals; the Vancouver and Reno labs are ISO 17025 accredited. ALS internal and Arizona Metals external blind QC samples were acceptable. Arizona Metals is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect data accuracy or reliability.

      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
           – Arizona Metals Corp. (TSX:AMC, OTCQX:AZMCF) (the "Company" or "Arizona Metals") is pleased to announce assay results from three drill holes in the Kay2 Zone and one hole from the West target at the Kay project in Arizona. In the Kay2 Zone, drill hole KM-24-170C intersected 34.8 m @ 11.3 g/t AuEq, including 2.0 m @ 23.6 g/t AuEq and 4.0 m @ 19.1 g/t AuEq (Figure 1, Table 1). One sample in this drill hole returned 33.5 g/t Au, the third-highest gold assay on the project to date (691.1-691.7 m). The hole is located approximately 40 m below hole KM-24-166, the discovery hole in the Kay2 Zone. A second drill hole in the Kay2 Zone, KM-24-170B, intersected 4.7 m @ 1.0% CuEq (Figure 1, Table 1). The Kay2 Zone is located approximately 100 m north of previously drilled mineralization in the Kay deposit.
          &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;strong&gt;&#xD;
      
          Duncan Middlemiss, President and CEO of Arizona Metals, commented:
         &#xD;
    &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          “We are very pleased that the Kay deposit continues to demonstrate high-grade zones, and that the Kay2 Zone shows good continuity. This hole was drilled to test and confirm the continuity of mineralization in the vicinity of drill hole KM-24-166. We expect mineralization in these and other Kay2 Zone drill holes to add tonnage to the forthcoming mineral resource estimate for the Kay deposit, planned for H1 2025. Meanwhile, we continue to probe the vertical extents of both the Kay2 Zone and the main Kay deposit with deep drill holes. We are currently drilling two deep trunk holes (holes 176 and 177) below the Kay and Kay2 zones, targeting around 1150 m below surface. We will wedge these holes laterally and at successively higher elevations to determine the deeper extents of the mineralization. The results of this deeper drilling could be included in the H1-2025 mineral resource estimate.”

    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The deep drill holes currently underway are intended to serve as trunk holes to allow multiple branch holes to further test the size of the Kay2 Zone and deeper Kay deposit mineralization. One drill hole in the Kay2 Zone, KM-24-173A, encountered no significant assays (Figure 1). An additional hole in the West target intersected the West target horizon: hole KM-24-175 intersected anomalous sulfide minerals and trace elements where expected within this mineralized horizon. With the completion of recent drill holes, Arizona Metals has drilled a total of 127,000 meters on the property.

          The true width of mineralization is estimated to be 50% to 99% of reported core width, with an average of 76%. Assumptions used in USD for the copper and gold metal equivalent calculations were metal prices of $4.63/lb Copper, $1937/oz Gold, $25.20/oz Silver, $1.78/lb Zinc, and $1.02/lb Pb. Metal equivalent calculations used assumed metal recoveries, based on a preliminary review of historic data by SRK and ProcessIQ, which were 93% for copper, 92% for zinc, 90% for lead, 72% for silver, and 70% for gold. The following equation was used to calculate copper equivalence: CuEq = Copper (%) (93% rec.) + (Gold (g/t) × 0.61)(70% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) × 0.0079)(72% rec.) + (Zinc (%) × 0.3844)(92% rec.) + (Lead (%) × 0.2203)(90% rec.). The following equation was used to calculate gold equivalence: AuEq = Gold (g/t)(70% rec.) + (Copper (%) × 1.638)(93% rec.) + (Silver (g/t) × 0.01291)(72% rec.) + (Zinc (%) × 0.6299)(92% rec.) + (Lead (%) × 0.3609)(90% rec.). Analyzed metal equivalent calculations are reported for illustrative purposes only. The metal chosen for reporting on an equivalent basis is the one that contributes the most dollar value after accounting for assumed recoveries.

          Arizona Metals Corp owns 100% of the Kay Project in Yavapai County, which is located on 1,669 acres of patented and BLM mining claims and 193 acres of private land that are not subject to any royalties. A historic estimate by Exxon Minerals in 1982 reported a “proven and probable reserve of 6.4 million short tons at a grade of 2.2% copper, 2.8 g/t gold, 3.03% zinc, and 55 g/t silver.” The historic estimate at the Kay Mine Project was reported by Exxon Minerals in 1982 (Fellows, M.L., 1982, Kay Mine massive sulphide deposit: Internal report prepared for Exxon Minerals Company).

          The Kay Project’s historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling, and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.

          All of Arizona Metals’ drill sample assay results have been independently monitored through a quality assurance/quality control (“QA/QC”) protocol, which includes the insertion of blind standard reference materials and blanks at regular intervals. Logging and sampling were completed at Arizona Metals’ core handling facilities located in Phoenix and Black Canyon City, Arizona. Drill core was diamond sawn on site, and half drill-core samples were securely transported to ALS Laboratories’ (“ALS”) sample preparation facility in Tucson, Arizona. Sample pulps were sent to ALS’s labs in Vancouver, Canada, and Reno, Nevada, for analysis.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          Gold content was determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge with ICP finish (ALS method Au-AA23). Silver and 32 other elements were analyzed by ICP methods with four-acid digestion (ALS method ME-ICP61a). Over-limit samples for Au, Ag, Cu, and Zn were determined by ore-grade analyses Au-GRA21, Ag-OG62, Cu-OG62, and Zn-OG62, respectively.
         &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          ALS Laboratories is independent of Arizona Metals Corp., and its Vancouver and Reno facilities are ISO 17025 accredited. ALS also performed its own internal QA/QC procedures to assure the accuracy and integrity of results. Parameters for ALS’ internal and Arizona Metals’ external blind quality control samples were acceptable for the samples analyzed. Arizona Metals is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein.

    &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    The new season is a great reason to make and keep resolutions. Whether it’s eating right or cleaning out the garage, here are some tips for making and keeping resolutions.
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;div&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    Make a list
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    Lists are great ways to stay on track. Write down some big things you want to accomplish and some smaller things, too.
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    Check the list regularly
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    Don’t forget to check in and see how you’re doing. Just because you don’t achieve the big goals right away doesn’t mean you’re not making progress.
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    Reward yourself
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    When you succeed in achieving a goal, be it a big one or a small one, make sure to pat yourself on the back.
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;b&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    Think positively
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/b&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
      
                    
    Positive thinking is a major factor in success. So instead of mulling over things that didn’t go quite right, remind yourself of things that did.
  
                  &#xD;
    &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;

          Arizona Metals Corp. owns 100% of the Kay Project in Yavapai County, which is located on 1,669 acres of patented and BLM mining claims and193 acres of private land that are not subject to any royalties. An historic estimate by Exxon Minerals in 1982 reported a "proven and probable reserve of 6.4 million short tons at a grade of 2.2% copper, 2.8 g/t gold, 3.03% zinc, and 55 g/t silver." The historic estimate at the Kay Deposit was reported by Exxon Minerals in 1982. (Fellows, M.L., 1982, Kay Mine massive sulphide deposit: Internal report prepared for Exxon Minerals Company)

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Kay Mine historic estimate has not been verified as a current mineral resource. None of the key assumptions, parameters, and methods used to prepare the historic estimate were reported, and no resource categories were used. Significant data compilation, re-drilling and data verification may be required by a Qualified Person before the historic estimate can be verified and upgraded to be a current mineral resource. A Qualified Person has not done sufficient work to classify it as a current mineral resource, and Arizona Metals is not treating the historic estimate as a current mineral resource.

  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
          The Kay Mine is a steeply dipping VMS deposit that has been defined from a depth of 60 m to at least 900 m. It is open for expansion on strike and at depth.
