FIRST TELLURIUM ANNOUNCES UPCOMING LAUNCH OF 2026 EXPLORATION AT DEER HORN PROPERTY

First Tellurium Corp., with its exploration permit approved for commencement of work July 15, will begin mobilizing crews on its Deer Horn polymetallic property in west-central British Columbia.

"Continuing with the positive results at Deer Horn in recent years, we have multiple targets to explore on the property," said First Tellurium president and chief executive officer Tyrone Docherty. "We're anxious to follow up on the previous rounds of work and discoveries."

Deer Horn represents a unique mineral asset. Exploration to date has outlined a 17.5-square-kilometre mineral zone that includes a copper-gold porphyry with extensive bornite on surface and a 2.4 kilometre strike length of high-grade gold, silver and tellurium.

The disclosure of technical or scientific information related to the Deer Horn project in the news release was reviewed and approved by Dr. Lee Groat, PhD, PGeo, technical adviser to First Tellurium, who is a qualified person within the context of NI 43-101.
