ROAMEO Gen 4 redefines outdoor security by delivering capabilities that far exceed traditional human patrols. Designed to autonomously monitor and respond across large areas like parking lots and campuses, ROAMEO provides a constant, visible presence without the fatigue, gaps, or high costs associated with security guards. Powered by AI-driven detection and real-time communication tools, ROAMEO actively engages to deter unwanted activity, reports incidents instantly, and helps organizations modernize security operations while dramatically lowering labor expenses.
'This marks the second announced ROAMEO Gen 4 order in just two days, and it is a clear indicator of the momentum we are building,' said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO of AITX and RAD. 'Organizations are recognizing that autonomous, AI-driven security is no longer a future concept. It is available today, delivering real-world results and measurable savings. We are thrilled to see ROAMEO gaining traction so quickly across multiple sectors.'
Parking lots have long been a magnet for criminal activity, particularly after business hours. Bureau of Justice Statistics data shows that nearly 42% of nonfatal violent crimes between 1998 and 2002 occurred in public places like parking lots and garages, with further reports indicating that about 3% of violent victimizations by strangers from 2005 to 2010 took place in these areas i. Despite widespread awareness of these risks, parking lots often remain inadequately protected, creating a clear opportunity for solutions that deliver continuous surveillance, proactive deterrence, and real-time response, specifically what ROAMEO Gen 4 was designed to provide.
'This opportunity began with a strong connection made at the last few ISC West shows,' said Troy McCanna, Chief Security Officer at RAD. 'It reinforces how important it is for clients and partners to experience our technology firsthand. When they see ROAMEO in action, the value becomes obvious. We are excited to support this dealer and client as they bring new levels of security and visibility to their properties.'
Deployment of the national retailer's ROAMEO Gen 4 unit is expected this summer. RAD anticipates that success with this client will open the door to additional opportunities across the retail sector, where the need for intelligent, cost-effective parking lot security solutions continues to grow.

SOMA GOLD INTERSECTS VENUS GAP VEIN AT DEPTH WITH 7.5 g/t Au OVER 6.0 m, EXTENDING ZONE BY 135 m
Highlights include the following drill intercepts: RVICDDH-24-032 1.7 m at 9.2g/t Au incl. 0.6 m at 18.8g/t Au RVICDDH-24-034 2.1 m at 11.9g/t Au incl. 0.65 m at 32.5g/t Au RVICDDH-24-040 6.0 m at 7.5g/t Au incl. 0.65 m at 9.3g/t Au and 0.5m at 67.8g/t Au VANCOUVER, BC, June 11, 2025 /CNW/ - Soma Gold Corp. (TSXV: SOMA) (WKN: A2P4DU) (OTC: SMAGF) (the "Company" or "Soma") is pleased to announce ongoing drill results targeting the "Venus Gap" zone of the Cordero Mine on the Bagre Project in central Colombia (Figure 1). Twelve diamond drill holes, totaling 2,848 meters of underground drilling, were designed to test the dip extent of the Venus Gap Zone (see Figures 2 and 3). The drilling results outlined in this press release extend the dip of the vein by approximately 135 meters downdip. The Cordero Deposit is hosted in the El Carmen Stock and consists of coarse-grained tonalite, diorite, and gabbroic phases. The quartz veins form as laminated fault-fill veins within a sinistral brittle-ductile shear zone. They are interpreted as conjugate shears within a steeply dipping, north-striking regional shear zone. The controlling shear zone also hosts the Los Mangos Deposit, located 2.8 kilometres to the north. The quartz veins in the Cordero Deposit form a series of en echelon segments that consistently step to the right along strike. The veins have been repeatedly reactivated and exhibit three distinct phases of development: early barren quartz veins, sphalerite + galena + pyrite + gold mineralization controlled by microfractures, and brittle fracturing along the margins of the veins filled with quartz + pyrite + tellurides + gold. Gold mineralization occurs during the latter two phases of vein development. The final stage of brittle fracturing and micro-breccia is commonly associated with 'bonanza' gold grades. Subsequently, the veins are crosscut by aphanitic mafic dykes and numerous brittle faults. The brittle faults are generally dextral and offset the quartz veins from <1.0m to 10s of metres. The late brittle faults commonly dismember the mineralized veins into short strike-length segments, the continuity of which is difficult to discern from drill data. The Cordero Deposit is informally divided into five main zones: Athenas, Cordero, Venus, Venus Gap, and Victoria Ramp zones (Figure 2).

True width is approximately 80%-90% of the drill interval. Soma's Vice President of Exploration, Chris Buchanan, stated, "Drilling in the Venus Gap Zone continues to return the broadest, high-grade intervals in the mine. Extending this zone down dip adds resources to the mine plan and supports development of deeper levels of the Venus and Venus Gap veins." Table 1 presents the composited assay results from twelve drill holes at the Venus Gap Zone. Assays in the drilling range from below detection to a maximum grade of 67.8 g/t Au. The drilling currently covers approximately 150 m of strike length between the southern-most drill intercept (RVICDDH-25-035) and the northern-most intercept (RVICDDH-25-040). RVICDDH-25-036 extends the known dip of the vein system 135m down dip from the 0770 level, the current mining operations. Like other parts of the Venus Gap Zone, wider zones of mineralized stockwork in the footwall of the principal gold-bearing quartz veins and in enclaves of wall rock between anastomosing vein segments were intersected. RIVICDDH-25-040 intersected the widest interval of gold mineralization in the lower Venus Gap with a total width of 6.0 m and an average grade of 7.5 g/t gold (Plate 1). Three of the drill holes intersected quartz veins but did not return significant gold assays (Table 1). This is attributed to the nuggety nature of the gold distribution observed across the Cordero Deposit. A long section of the drill intercepts is presented in Figure 3. The high-grade intercepts delineate multiple segments of the vein system that are separated by cross-cutting faults and late mafic dykes. Selected highlights from the 2024 drill campaign on the upper Venus Gap vein are presented in Table 2 (see news release dated November 12, 2024). Underground drilling is ongoing in this area to determine the strike and dip extents of the lower Venus Gap quartz veins. The vein segments are located proximal to existing mine workings in the Victoria Ramp and Venus Vein areas. Access to the lower Venus Gap is planned from the Victoria Ramp workings and is expected to intersect the veins in Q4 2025.

The drillholes are targeted to intersect the vein orientation as perpendicular as possible. The true width is approximately 70% to 90% of the drilled width. In addition to supporting mining operations at Cordero Mine, Soma's exploration team continues to evaluate numerous small-scale mines near Machuca. Drilling is ongoing at the Colossa and Colossa 2 informal mines (Figure 4). Three high-priority Au anomalies close to informal mines were identified in the regional soil survey. Additionally, the copper anomaly identified on the soil grid is the focus of infill soil sampling and geological mapping. These targets are scheduled for detailed geological mapping and drilling in the second half of 2025. Soma also continues to work with the local communities on the Machuca Property as part of its ongoing ESG program. The Otú fault system ("Otú Fault") extends for over 100 km, from Aris's Segovia-Remedios mines (TSX:ARIS) in the south to Nechi in the north, where it is buried beneath younger sedimentary overlap sequences. Soma's property holdings now cover more than 56 km of this regional structure. High-grade gold mineralization occurs along the entire strike length of the Otú Fault. The high-grade gold occurs in brittle-ductile to brittle quartz veins formed during the later stages of deformation along the Otú Fault. Across the district, the quartz veins typically display orientation patterns that suggest the veins form in conjugate faults associated with brittle faulting on the Otú Fault. Notable deposits along this trend include Segovia-Remedios, La Aurora, El Limon, Le Ye, Los Mangos, and Cordero. The Machuca Property is located along a critical segment of this regional fault structure and displays multiple indications of high-grade gold mineralization. QA/QC Statement Soma follows a comprehensive QA/QC program to ensure the reliability of assay data collected from its exploration programs. All samples are sawn or split in half, with one half being returned to the core box for storage. The second half-core is placed in a labelled plastic bag with a tag, document, and sealed for shipment. Batches of samples are shipped to Actlabs Colombia SAS (Actlabs) in Rio Negro with security tags and documented chain of custody. Pulps of each sample are prepared in Rio Negro. Pulp samples are then shipped to Actlabs Canada for multi-element analysis. All samples are analyzed using package 1E3, an ICP-MS analysis that provides the concentration of 51 elements. Fire assay analysis for gold and Silver is completed by Actlabs in Rio Negro. Thirty-gram aliquots of each sample are analyzed for gold using a standard fire assay with an atomic absorption finish, package 1A2. Overlimit samples are subjected to an additional fire assay with a gravimetric finish, package 1A3-30, to determine the gold concentration. A comprehensive QA/QC program has been implemented to monitor the reliability of assay data collected during exploration programs. The program includes the regular insertion of certified blanks, duplicates, and certified OREAS standards. Assays of the QA/QC samples are automatically compared to the certified value and standard deviations in the database.
