Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 18, 2025) - Magna Terra Minerals Inc. (TSXV: MTT) ("Magna Terra" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received analytical results from a soil geochemical survey over its recently discovered zone of copper mineralization along the Hughes Lake Trend at its 100% owned Humber Copper-Cobalt Project (the "Humber Project" or the "Project") located in western Newfoundland. The Company has also received additional rock grab sample assays from the discovery area that outline the 2.2-kilometre long and recently expanded zone (see news release dated November 4, 2025 (Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4).

Soil sampling, comprising collection of 837 samples across the property shows elevated copper values ranging between <5 ppm and 2,150 ppm Cu with 46 of 837 (5.5%) assaying over 500 ppm. In particular, elevated copper was documented over the 2.2-kilometre-long zone of bedrock mineralization with potential for extension of this mineralized zone 1.7 kilometres along strike to the southwest where elevated historic copper in soils are present along a magnetic low (Figures 3 and 4). Furthermore, infill and expansion soil sampling over the mafic volcanic unit in an area of historic sampling continues to show elevated copper values over the larger Hughes Lake Trend. Soil samples were collected along lines spaced 100 to 200 m apart on 25 metre sample spacing.

Assays from the recently collected 57 rock grab samples^ show copper values ranging from 5 to 5,452 ppm (0.545%) Cu with 17 of the 57 rock samples (29.8%) analysing over 500 ppm Cu and continue to outline the 2.2-kilometre-long zone of mineralization at Hughes Lake (Figures 3 and 4). Copper mineralization is hosted within dolomitized limestone with visible copper mineralization between trace and 5% combined chalcopyrite, bornite and malachite.

Magna Terra would like to acknowledge and thank both the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador and the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency ("ACOA") for their financial assistance through the Junior Exploration Assistance ("JEA") program for work on the Humber Copper-Cobalt Project.

Humber Project Highlights

• Discovery of 2.2 km of surface copper mineralization at Hughes Lake, with potential for further minimum 1.7 km of strike extent;
• Host to regionally anomalous Cu, Co, Ag, Pb +/- Au, Mo, As, and Sb lake sediments;
• Airborne conductors coincident with lake sediment anomalies;
• 8+ km Hughes Lake Copper-Cobalt Trend;
• Analogous to the Kalahari Copper Belt, Namibia and Botswana; Central African Copper Belt, Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC); and the Kupferschiefer Belt, Poland;
• Globally, these Sediment-hosted Stratiform Copper ("SSC") deposit types represent 20% of Cu production** and 60% of Co production^^;
• District-scale land package now comprising 49,925 hectares;
• Located within the premier mining jurisdiction of Newfoundland and Labrador;
• Year-round accessibility with road access to the majority of the Project;
• First mover advantage in a previously unrecognized area of exploration potential; and
• Acquired through staking - cost effective acquisition and with no underlying royalties or option payments.

"We are very pleased with the results of our systematic work at Humber to date. The extension of the zone of copper mineralization to 2.2 kilometres, now confirmed by assay results, is a testament to the near-term discovery potential of the Project. Soil sampling on the Project has been instrumental threefold: 1) at highlighting the zone of copper mineralization, demonstrating that soil sampling is an effective exploration tool in this geological domain; 2) indicating the potential for extension of the mineralized zone a minimum of 1.7 kilometres to the southwest; and 3) confirming the potential for the larger 8 kilometre long Hughes Lake Trend to host undiscovered copper mineralization. Additional soil sampling will be completed to the northeast and southwest of Hughes Lake Trend with the goal of expanding the potential footprint of the mineralized zone. Our work will continue to advance discovery of additional targets and zones of copper-cobalt-silver mineralization on the broader property package via ongoing soil and stream sediment sampling, particularly in areas of higher conductivity outlined in the recently completed airborne geophysical survey. While early stage, these initial generative results further support our view that the Humber Project has the potential to host Sediment-hosted Stratiform Copper deposits."

Lake Sediment Geochemistry and Global Analogues

The Project is underlain by rocks of the sedimentary Humber Arm Allochthon and adjacent plutonic and volcanic Hughes Lake Complex, which is centred on a series of anomalous lake sediment samples (Davenport et al., 1996) that show regionally elevated levels of Co (up to 160 ppm), Ag (up to 0.6 ppm), Pb (up to 84 ppm), Cu (up to 185 ppm), As (up to 142 ppm), Mo (up to 15 ppm), and Au (up to 10 ppb). An analysis of the lake sediment geochemical data via Principal Component Analysis has indicated that the metal suite present within the Project area is likely related to a black shale source, as many of the anomalous lake sediments have low-Ni values which precludes association with the nearby ophiolite complexes to the immediate west.

This metal signature (Cu, Co, Ag, Pb +/- Au, Mo, As, Sb) and geological environment is supportive of the area being host to SSC deposits. SSC deposits host 60% of global Cobalt production^^ and 20% of global Copper production** in deposits such as the Central African Copper Belt, which is thought to be analogous to the geological setting of the Humber Copper-Cobalt Project. SSC deposits are often laterally continuous along bedding and contain consistent grades (1.2 to 5% Cu)** and large resources of by-product Au, U, platinum-group, and rare-earth elements. The exploration potential is also underscored by the presence of base metal deposits nearby including the York Harbour and Daniels Harbour Deposits located at lower stratigraphic levels of the region.
