Exploration Update From Atalaya Mining

Atalaya Mining provided an update on its Skellefte Belt and Rockliden projects in northern Sweden, where the company can earn an initial 75% interest in two separate land packages. Over the last months, a winter drilling program has been completed at both projects, resulting in 9 drill holes for a total of 2,445m @ the Skellefte Belt project and 16 holes for a total of 2,781m @ the Rockliden project. According to the company, significant progress was made in extending the mineralization at Bjurträskgruvan (Skellefte Belt) and the Target 1 prospect at Rockliden.

Assays from the drilling program are expected by the end of Q2 2025. In the meantime, geophysical surveys are being conducted at both projects to further refine drill targeting for the next drilling season.
