Announcement • Jun 25Getty Copper Inc. Reports First Assay Results from 2026 Exploration Program At Getty ProjectGetty Copper Inc. has provided first assay results from its 2026 exploration program at the Getty Project in the Highland Valley District. The results from the three drill holes reported here are the first from the current program, which is designed to support a future resource estimate and potentially expand the Getty North porphyry copper deposit. Getty plans to complete up to 16,000 metres of drilling on resource and exploration targets in its 2026 program. A total of 14 holes have been completed at Getty North to date and results from the first three holes are reported here: GN26-01 (Resource confirmation): 342m of 0.50% Cu, 87 ppm Mo and 0.8 g/t Ag from 9m depth (oxide to 39m) including 108m of 0.70% Cu, 90 ppm Mo and 1.0 g/t Ag from 12m and including 135m of 0.55% Cu, 132 ppm Mo and 1.0 g/t Ag from 186m. GN26-03 (Expansion): 170.8m of 0.24% Cu, 50 ppm Mo and 0.3 g/t Ag from 408.2m downhole (~300m below surface) including 45.9m of 0.40% Cu, 133 ppm Mo and 0.4 g/t Ag from 408.2m. GN26-04 (Resource confirmation): 278m of 0.38% Cu, 46 ppm Mo and 0.4 g/t Ag from 22m depth including 150m of 0.51% Cu, 58 ppm Mo and 0.5 g/t Ag from 66m. The drill holes encountered copper mineralization occurring predominantly as sulfides, mainly chalcopyrite with local bornite, in vein stockworks and sheeted vein zones and disseminations associated with a multiphase porphyry intrusion, consistent with historical logs and the Company's relogging work. GN26-01 encountered a short interval of oxidized copper mineralization near surface, to be more fully characterized by ongoing sequential leach assaying. Comparable mineralization was encountered in GN26-02; however, final QA/QC review for that hole is pending so it is not reported in this release. Holes GN26-01 and GN26-04 are the first of a planned eight resource confirmation holes. They drill down the plunge of the deposit to collect a multi-element assay suite with a full QA/QC protocol that will be used to upgrade the historic resource estimate to a modern standard. The holes intersected grades and widths that are consistent with expectations, based on grade models generated from historical drill hole data. The Getty North deposit is approximately 350 metres wide east-west and 500 metres wide north-south and remains open down plunge. True width of mineralization in the drill holes will be determined once geological modelling is completed but at present is not known. GN26-03 is an expansion hole that was drilled as a >65m down-plunge step-out beneath historical drilling and indicates the continuation of mineralization at depth which remains open. The relatively sharp increase in grade marking the start of the intercept in this hole occurs at a fault, highlighting the potential to identify fault-offset mineralization nearby. Similarly, the relatively sharp decreases in grade at depth in GN26-01 and GN26-04 are interpreted to be in part fault-related and occur southeast of the cross section line. Drilling is ongoing to complete an updated geological model and fully characterize the geometry and structural controls of mineralization. An additional 11 holes for a total of 7,377m have been completed at Getty North to date. Assay results and/or QA/QC review are pending for these holes, and sampling remains ongoing for some. Drilling is also ongoing at Getty South. Reported intervals represent drilled widths and not true widths. Drill holes were sampled at continuous 3m intervals, though samples are shorter to accommodate geological boundaries. Samples were halved by core saw on site, with one half sent to ALS Laboratories in Kamloops or North Vancouver for preparation and pulps were assayed in North Vancouver. Samples were prepared and assayed following ALS method codes: PREP-31, ME-MS61, and Au-ICP21. Selected samples were also assayed by sequential leach package Cu-PKG06LI, for which a split of the pulp was analyzed at ALS Laboratories in Lima, Peru. The Company followed a QA/QC program involving the use of blanks, standards and duplicates.
Announcement • May 27Getty Copper Provides Update on Drill Target Identified At Getty SouthGetty Copper Inc. had completed a compilation and review of historical drilling data at Getty South. The database includes mainly drill holes completed in the 1970s and earlier, many of which were only partially sampled with no geological logs and uncertain locations. The review also included relogging of 13 drill holes completed in 1996 totaling 2,579 metres, all of which were fully sampled and assayed. This drilling data, combined with information from trenching and geological mapping shows that discrete breccia-hosted higher grade copper zones within Getty South have been only partly defined. One of the most significant of these is the Trojan Zone, which includes the historical Trojan Mine. Reported historical drill intercepts include: 1.3% Cu over 23.2 m from 1.2 m depth in U-4; 0.9% Cu over 12.2 m from 13.7 m depth in U-5; 1.1% Cu over 9.1 m from 18.3 m depth in U-6; 1.7% Cu over 25 m from 18.3 m depth in U-9; 0.63% Cu over 20 m from 52.5 m depth in GS96-06; 0.8% Cu over 8.8 m from 72.8 m depth in U-1; 0.8% Cu over 39 m from 72.9 m depth in U-3 (The deepest intersection to date, 125m vertically below surface; hole collared underground). Notably, the Trojan Zone is partly coincident with an IP chargeability anomaly which strengthens at depth beneath historical drilling. IP anomalies indicate the presence of disseminated sulfide mineralization, which is very encouraging as chalcopyrite is by far the most abundant sulfide mineral encountered in drilling at Getty South. This anomaly and others across the property have been better defined by 3D inversions of historical geophysical data completed as part of the Company's ongoing district-scale exploration targeting work. The Trojan Zone will be the initial target of the planned drill program at Getty South. Planned drill holes ranging from 150 to 500 metres are designed to determine the geometry, grade, and mineralogy of extensions to the near-surface high-grade zones, while also testing geophysical anomalies located down-plunge of the high-grade breccia zones. The anomaly is considered prospective, as elevated IP chargeability indicates the presence of sulfides. Reported here for the first time based on data relied on for the non-current report Parkinson, C.L. and Fayram, T.S., 2009, National Instrument 43-101 Preliminary Feasibility Study Technical Report of the Getty Copper Project. The Company has not yet been able to verify the details of all historical drill holes at Getty South. The technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Roy Greig, Ph.D., P.Geo., who is a Qualified Person as defined in "National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects" and who is an officer of the Company - Vice President of Exploration.
