Heliostar Metals Ltd. (TSXV: HSTR) (OTCQX: HSTXF) (FSE: RGG1) (‘Heliostar’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce additional results from a 12,500-metre drilling program at the La Colorada Mine in Sonora, Mexico. La Colorada restarted production in early January 2025, and the current drill program is intended to expand the mineral reserves ahead of a Feasibility Study and expansion decision planned for mid-2025.

Heliostar CEO, Charles Funk, commented, ‘At La Colorada, we are seeing the combined benefit of gold production at record prices and growth from the first significant investment into the project in many years. Our aggressive five-rig drill program is designed to increase the reserves of the Creston pit. Success to date in the shallow part of the pit could lower the upfront capital costs presented in the January 13^th Technical Report. The Company will use the results of this drill program to finalize a Feasibility Study in mid-2025 and then make an expansion decision on La Colorada to 50,000-100,000 ounces per year of annual production. We are also hitting high grades and widths and deeper intercepts could drive underground mining optionality beyond the open pit. We will further test this target with additional drilling in this current drill program.’

Drill Results Summary

Mineralization at La Colorada’s Creston Pit is predominantly hosted in three veins: the North, Intermediate and South Veins (Figure 1). These veins trend northeast-southwest to east-west, dip northward and are surrounded by halos of smaller mineralized vein zones. The Creston Pit has historically mined oxide gold and silver from all three of these veins. A current Mineral Reserves of 312,000 ounces of gold grading 0.76 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 10.1 g/t silver is defined at the Creston Pit¹.

Reviewing the expansion potential revealed two opportunities for reserve growth: near surface extensions of known veins where little or no drilling had been completed and upgrading and expanding mineralization beneath the pit. Both opportunities were defined using historical drilling, blasthole data, mining shapes, and the geological model.

High-density blast hole data strongly emphasizes the potential for a continuation of veins at shallow depth, defining elevated gold grades that continue to the edge of the pit walls where they remain open for expansion (Figure 1).

Forty-seven holes have been completed in the program to date, with results reported for twenty-three new holes in this release. A total of 6,452 metres have been completed to date in the program. The majority of the new drill holes targeted shallow extensions of the North, Intermediate and South Veins in areas considered to be waste in the reserve estimate of the current Technical Report. Additionally, today’s results include deeper holes beneath the current pit. These holes target the growth of reserves deeper within the planned pit expansion. They aim to add ounces to the overall El Creston resources and reserves.

The results show narrow to wide, low to high-grade oxide gold intercepts. They consistently return intercepts above the 0.16 g/t gold cutoff grade of reserves within the Creston pit. The results suggest that areas of waste could be converted to ore in an updated reserve model.

High-grade intercepts deeper in the pit indicate the potential for mineralization that may be amenable to underground mining beyond the current pit boundary. The Company will follow-up on these results to assess the potential to extend mine life with mineralization amenable to underground mining beneath and to the west of the Creston Pit.

Next Steps

Results from the current drill program will be incorporated into a resource model and support a reserve update to be published with a Feasibility Study in mid-2025.

Should the drilling define a material volume of gold mineralization, this program has the potential to reduce the overall strip ratio of the Crestón pit expansion, which could result in a reduction in up-front capital requirements for the restart and improve the economics of the Feasibility Study. This study will be the basis of a decision for the expansion of production at La Colorada in mid-2025.

The Company anticipates additional drilling results from the current program will be released in Q1 and Q2, 2025.

Toronto, Ontario January 30, 2025 TheNewswire – Noble Mineral Exploration Inc. ( ‘Noble’ or the ‘Company’ ) (TSX-V:NOB, FRANKFURT: NB7, OTCQB:NLPXF) is pleased to report acquisition of mining claims on a Uranium-Molybdenum prospect in Northern Quebec. The 10 claims were acquired by map staking to cover approximately 461 hectares and is called the Taser North Property

The Taser North Project

The Taser North Property, located in the Ungava Bay region of northern Quebec, approximately 130 km southeast of the community of Kangirsuk, is a significant exploration area for uranium mineralization. Historically Azimut Exploration Inc., in partnership with Majescor Resources Inc., explored the property in 2007 for its potential to host uranium mineralization. No work has been done since.

The Taser North Property encompasses a variety of geological units, predominantly comprising high-grade metamorphic rocks such as gneisses and schists. These units have been intruded by granitic and pegmatitic bodies, which are potential hosts for uranium mineralization. The property is aligned along an extensive regional-scale uranium lake-bottom sediment anomaly referred to as the ‘Central Quebec Uranium Lineament,’ indicating a favourable environment for uranium mineralization.

The 2007 work identified numerous uranium-bearing outcrops over a 35-km strike, with samples located on the Taser North property yielding grades up to 0.65% U ₃ O ₈ . In addition, molybdenum values up to 0.14% were found associated with the anomalous uranium.

Individual uranium analyses include: 0.65%, 0.58%, 0.30%, 0.29%, 0.18%, 0.12%, 0.11%, and 0.10% over 2km of strike.

Molybdenum analyses include: 0.14%, 0.13% 0.08% and 0.05%.

The anomalous samples are located on the southwest flank of a northwest trending airborne radiometric high in uranium measuring 2.5km by 0.5km. In addition, a lake sediment sample taken from a lake southwest of the anomalous values on analysis measured 141 ppm uranium. (see Figure 1)

Figure 1 – Taser North Project with property highlights on an Airborne Uranium Radiometric background.

The Taser North Property exhibits significant potential for uranium mineralization, supported by its favourable geological setting and positive, historical exploration results. The identification of numerous priority targets and high-grade analyses underscore the property’s prospectivity. Further detailed prospecting, geological mapping, sampling, and drilling are recommended to fully assess and delineate the uranium potential of this property.

Acquisition of Taser North property plus the recent acquisition of the Chateau Property (Noble Press Release dated January 17, 2025) demonstrates Noble’s commitment to exploring for critical minerals in Canada.
