STAR COPPER ADVANCES INVESTIGATION OF INDATA PROJECT ROBUST COPPER VALUES OF "AT LEAST" 5KM BREADTH

Star Copper Corp. has provided an update regarding its 60-per-cent optioned interest in the Indata copper-gold property.

Situated in northern-central British Columbia on the eastern side of Albert Lake, a two-hour drive from the community of Fort St. James, the Indata property comprises 16 mineral claims totalling 3,189 hectares.

In the early history of the Indata project, exploration for lode gold was the predominant objective. Extensive soil grids, initially targeting gold but more recently copper, show, in addition to robust values in copper, many clusters of anomalous antimony commonly exceeding 100 parts per million through a north-south breadth of at least five kilometres.

The property is predominantly significant for its copper, gold and molybdenum endowment but is also endowed with antimony. Star Copper intends to advance a 2025 exploration drill campaign, focusing primarily on stepout drilling, to further investigate holes IN22-82 and IN22-74.

Examples of mineralization include:

• Copper -- hole IN22-82 with 174.0 metres grading 0.23 per cent copper, including 29.0 metres grading 0.47 per cent copper;
• Gold -- hole DDH88-11 with 4.0 metres grading 47.26 grams per tonne gold;
• Molybdenum -- hole IN22-74 with 31.0 metres at the bottom of the hole grading 0.102 per cent molybdenum, including 7.5 metres grading 0.320 per cent molybdenum.

In 2022, while drilling a concept hole for carbonate-hosted gold or CRD-style (carbonate replacement deposit) mineralization in the northwest sector of the property, hole IN22-84 intersected 81 metres of limestone breccia extensively mineralized with silica, arsenic and antimony above a quartz monzonite intrusive sporadically mineralized with molybdenite. Subsequent review of the geochemical database indicates extensive anomalous antimony in soil samples outbound from this discovery.

Targets constituted veins and silicified zones with many discoveries made by drilling and mechanical trenching. Gold mineralization was often associated with stibnite, resulting in many antimony assays exceeding 0.5 per cent (to as high as 3.8 per cent antimony).

Indata is located proximal to the trace of the Pinchi fault zone, 120 kilometres northwest of the community of Fort St. James, B.C., while the historic Snowbird mine, also located proximal to the trace of the Pinchi fault zone, is located 12 kilometres west of Fort St. James. At Snowbird, a small tonnage of ore with a reported grade of 9 per cent antimony and 0.25 ounce per ton gold (plus or minus 8.6 grams per tonne) was mined during the Second World War. Snowbird provides clues to gold-antimony mineralization at Indata, which is prospective for these metals through its entire 14-kilometre length.

Darryl Jones, chief executive officer of Star Copper, noted: "The historic data and ongoing efforts of our geologists bolsters our support for this exciting project. Dedicated exploration is an excellent means to meet the growing industrial and economic demands of North America and beyond. This asset is an excellent example of how we aim to continue to build a big-picture, area-wide investment in the copper-gold resource sector in Western Canada. Our goal is meet the demand and build shareholder value in what is an extraordinary period of fast-paced change and growth."

About Star Copper Corp.

Star Copper is an exploration and development company focused on developing high-potential copper projects in mining-friendly jurisdictions. The company aims to advance its British Columbian flagship Star project, where significant exploration work, including historical drilling, has confirmed open mineralization at depth and in all directions. Star Copper's strategic plans include geological mapping and geophysical surveys to refine existing targets, diamond drilling programs to test high-priority zones, as well as environmental baseline studies and permitting groundwork alongside data analysis and resource modelling to support a future resource estimate prepared in accordance with NI 43-101. The company further plans to advance its Indata project with follow-up drilling to expand on previous high-grade copper and gold intercepts, trenching and surface sampling to delineate mineralized zones, and infrastructure improvements for site accessibility and operations. With a commitment to sustainable development and value creation, Star Copper aims to position itself to support surging industrial demand to meet growing global electrification needs.
