ELTON RESOURCES ANNOUNCES COMMENCEMENT OF TRADING ON THE TSXV
Further to its news releases dated April 16, 2026, May 27, 2026, July 16, 2026, Sept. 11, 2026, Sept. 23, 2026, and Sept. 29, 2026, Elton Resources Corp.'s (formerly, Chicane Capital I Corp.) common shares have commenced trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol DBAY at market open on Oct. 6, 2026. The company is focused on the exploration and development of its flagship Darnley Bay project, which is located in Northwest Territories, Canada.
Carson Phillips, chief executive officer of the company, commented: "We believe Darnley Bay represents one of the most compelling geophysical anomalies in the world, and the closing of this transaction marks a historical moment for the project. The scale and intensity of the Darnley Bay anomaly have attracted scientific and exploration interest for decades, yet the fundamental question of what lies beneath Darnley Bay has remained unanswered. In 2018, a magnetotellurics survey not only identified the source of the anomaly but it also identified over 10 large-scale targets across the project area, demonstrating clear district-scale potential. For the first time, we plan to advance these targets with the focused capital, technical expertise and a robust drilling program that an anomaly of this magnitude deserves."
Darnley Bay project
Darnley Bay is host to a large gravity and magnetic anomaly, and is considered to be one of the strongest isolated gravity anomalies in the world. The Darnley Bay anomaly exhibits a measured gravity amplitude of 132 mGal, with dimensions of 80 kilometres by 100 kilometres, and a coincident magnetic anomaly with an amplitude of 1,350 nT. The anomaly is considered prospective for nickel-copper-platinum group elements (Ni-Cu-PGE). Its source has drawn favourable comparisons to the prolific mining camps of Sudbury (Canada), Noril'sk (Russia) and the Bushveld complex (South Africa) by the Geological Survey of Canada, geological consultants and major mining companies. In July, 2018, a magnetotelluric survey was completed by Quantec Geoscience over a 40 by 50 km area on the anomaly. The results identified several targets that are expected to be followed up through the company's future exploration drill program.
