Star Copper Mobilizes 2025 Summer Exploration Targeting Expansion of Existing Discovery
Company set to build asset value in prolific 'Golden Triangle' VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / May 27, 2025 / Star Copper Corp. (CSE:STCU)(OTC PINK:STCUF)(FWB:SOP) ('Star Copper' or the 'Company'), a Canadian resource exploration and development company, is pleased to announce that equipment and crew have been mobilized to shortly commence drilling and other exploration activities in the field. Today's news officially kicks off Star Copper's 2025 drill plans at its flagship asset, the Star Project, located in the heart of the prolific industry recognized 'Golden Triangle' of northwestern British Columbia. The Star Project spans 6,829 hectares and is 100% owned by Star Copper. The property, and this current exploration program, are fully permitted under a Multi-Year Area-Based (MYAB) Notice of Work, enabling current and future exploration. Situated in a tier-one jurisdiction, the project boasts over $10 million in historical exploration efforts, including geophysical and geochemical surveys, trenching, soil sampling, and more than 13,000 meters of drilling from 49 diamond drill holes, which have confirmed the presence of a calc-alkalic porphyry copper-gold system. The campaign builds upon a significant historical exploration database and incorporates newly reinterpreted magnetic data to guide the next phase of high-impact drilling. Additionally, the Company will be looking to test the contiguous Star North and Star East claims through targeted sampling and trenching to confirm the geotechnical work which indicates similar characteristics to the Star Main deposit. Darryl Jones, Star Copper's CEO, comments, 'Embarking on our maiden program at Star is an exciting time for our shareholders, as this property has remained amazingly untouched in more than a decade. Our team's efforts to-date lead us to believe that the Star Project holds significant potential based on the inherent mineralization characteristics and geological trend data evident throughout the property. We are very eager to advance the Star North and East projects to further deliver potentially new discoveries aimed at unlocking the true value of the Star Project for our company, stakeholders, and shareholders alike.' 2025 Exploration Overview The fully funded $2.5 million campaign is scheduled to run until August 15, 2025, and incorporates a strategic plan already underway with the field crew currently moving to build a base camp supported by full onsite logistical capabilities. Once established, the team will situate new drill pads to undertake a 3,500-metre diamond drill core sampling program based on six drill holes with an additional 650 metres of contingency drilling allocated. Key program objectives include: Expanding the known mineralized envelope of the Star Main zone Testing deeper porphyry potential and structural offsets Following up on mineralization associated with the recently modeled Star Fault Drill Targeting Basis The program will utilize integrated 3D inversion modeling of 2013 airborne magnetic data, which was completed by Ronacher MacKenzie Geoscience. The new geophysical interpretation, along with trench mapping and core analysis, has confirmed a complex left-lateral strike-slip system and defined key structural features identified as: The Star Fault: A mineralized thrust-related structure that segments higher-grade mineralization in the northeast and offsets deeper mineralization to the southwest. The Dick Creek Fault and Hackett Valley Fault: Large-scale regional fault corridors that outline the structural controls of mineral emplacement. The refined modeling is being used to position drill holes to test both near-surface and deep mineralization, including areas previously untested by drilling. Selected Drill Targets for 2025 The planned holes include follow-ups on the following successful historical intercepts: Hole S025: 200m @ 0.49% Cu, 0.24 g/t Au Hole S027: 263m @ 0.39% Cu, 0.12 g/t Au Hole S029: 81m @ 0.35% Cu, 0.18 g/t Au Hole S040: 120m @ 0.36% Cu, 0.13 g/t Au Hole S023: 100m @ 0.47% Cu, 0.19 g/t Au Historic Collar Table UTM 9N HOLE ID Easting Northing Elevation Depth Azimuth Dip S023 339876 6458313 1140 293 45 -80 S025 339933 6458268 1127 410 270 -85 S027 339749 6458236 1104 598 0 -90 S029 339814 6458170 1072 470 30 -75 S040 339696 6458304 1108 472 0 -90 Please refer to the Company's February 26, 2025 technical report on the Star Project for more information in respect of the project, including historical drilling, available under the Company's profile at Once constructed, the new drill pads will also test untested magnetic anomalies, soil geochemical highs, and deep extensions of chargeability zones with the goal of expanding the known deposit at Star, both laterally as well to depth. Drill holes have not exceeded 660m in previous programs but the mineralization down hole shows the potential for much deeper targeting. The extensive supergene zone discovered at surface is exceptionally rare and the Company is excited to enhance the historic drilling with its own program this summer.

Rokmaster Receives Approval for Two Exploration Permits on the Gold-Silver-Copper-Zinc Selkirk Project
VANCOUVER, BC, April 25, 2025 /CNW/ - Rokmaster Resources Corp. (TSXV: RKR) (OTCQB: RKMSF) (FSE: 1RR1) ("Rokmaster" or "the Company") is pleased to provide a permitting update for its 100% owned Selkirk Project. The Selkirk Project is comprised of three properties: (a) the Keystone Property; (b) the Downie Gold Property; and (c) the Rift Property located north of Revelstoke in southeastern British Columbia (Figure 1). These three properties have been steadily advanced by Rokmaster since 2021 with positive results generated from geological mapping, prospecting, channel sampling, and soil sampling. A three year Multi-year Area Based Exploration Permit ("MYAB Permit") has now been approved on the Keystone Property by the British Columbia Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals. The MYAB Permit allows for up to 20 helicopter-supported drill sites and 7 helicopter pads. Both Replacement and vein-hosted sphalerite and galena mineralization has been discovered throughout the large Keystone Property during field work programs conducted between 2021 and 2024 (Figure 2). The rock grab samples have returned significant values of zinc, lead, silver and gold concentrated in two main areas of the Property where zones of dense quartz-galena-sphalerite veining is hosted in deformed dolostone. The northern extension of the mapped Akolkolex Thrust fault occurs within and proximal to the property, providing potential for orogenic-style gold mineralization. Another separate three year MYAB Permit has also now been approved on the Downie Gold Property by the British Columbia Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals. The MYAB Permit allows for up to 15 helicopter-supported drill sites and 6 helicopter pads. The Downie Gold Property hosts elevated gold in massive pyrrhotite-pyrite-galena mineralization associated with discordant stockwork veins and silicification in limestone rocks at the KJ Zone (Figure 3). In 2022, channel sample KJ6 returned 7.51 g/t Au, 616.14 g/t Ag, 7.93% Pb, and 1.72 % Zn over 3.50 meters (see news release dated December 19, 2022). At the Melt Zone in the western portion of the Downie Gold Property, skarn-style massive pyrrhotite and sphalerite mineralization locally hosts elevated gold proximal to the Goldstream Pluton. Also included in the Selkirk Project is the 299 hectare Rift Property which hosts an exposure of a stratabound high-grade sphalerite-galena horizon with an intersection of high-grade zinc approximately 460 m to the east in drillhole M-85-2. See news release dated November 5, 2024 for more details on Selkirk Project. John Mirko, President and CEO, comments: "We are very pleased to receive exploration permits allowing for drill testing on the multiple targets Rokmaster has generated on the Selkirk Project with detailed work over a number of years. The Keystone and Downie Gold Properties feature impressive polymetallic gold, silver, lead, and zinc mineralization in surface exposures which have yet to be thoroughly drilled to test the high potential at depth." The technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with Canadian regulatory requirements as set out in National Instrument 43-101 and reviewed and approved by Eric Titley, who is independent of Rokmaster and who acts as Rokmaster's Qualified Person.
