VIZSLA COPPER EXTENDS STRONG COPPER-IN-SOIL ANOMALY 3 KM TO THE EAST OF THE THIRA DISCOVERY, POPLAR PROJECT

Vizsla Copper Corp. has released initial results from a recently completed soil geochemical survey at its Thira discovery on the Poplar project in central British Columbia.

Highlights:

• Broad multielement soil geochemical anomaly extends for over three kilometres east of the Thira copper-molybdenum discovery;
• Copper, molybdenum and silver soil geochemical anomalies are coincident with geological and airborne geophysical targets;
• Induced polarization (IP) geophysical surveying over the same area is now complete, with processing, modelling and interpretation of the geophysical data pending;
• Planning is under way for a follow-up phase 2 drill program at Thira.

"These soil results have expanded the potential footprint of the Thira target area by three kilometres," commented Craig Parry, executive chairman. "The expansion potential, when combined with the current scale of the mineralization, proximity to surface and established infrastructure in the area, further supports that Thira is quickly becoming a significant discovery. We look forward to continuing to update the market ahead of our follow-up drill program at Thira in early 2026."

The soil survey

The recently completed phase 1 drill program at Thira consisted of 10 drill holes totalling over 4,500 metres (see Oct. 20, 2025, news release), with all drill holes intersecting significant intervals of porphyry-related copper-molybdenum mineralization. Strong mineralization (for example, 237.3 metres of 0.51 per cent copper equivalent (0.36 per cent copper, 0.02 per cent molybdenum, 1.19 grams per tonne silver and 0.06 gram per tonne gold) from 117.7 metres downhole in TH25-145; see Oct. 20 news release) consists of chalcopyrite-molybdenite-bearing stockwork and multistage porphyry-related veins that crosscut intensely biotite altered volcanics and volcanic breccias and at least four phases of premineral and intramineral intrusions. Targeting for the phase 1 drill program was strongly influenced by an open-ended copper-molybdenum-silver soil geochemical anomaly identified in the 2024 soil survey. This anomaly is now known to be spatially coincident with copper-molybdenum-silver mineralization at Thira.

An expanded soil survey has now been completed across most of the remaining approximately eight-by-two-kilometre Thira alteration corridor. Initial results from this survey indicate that the multielement soil anomaly identified in 2024 extends at least three kilometres to the east, where further results are pending. The main copper-in-soil anomaly now measures approximately 4,000 by 800 metres and contains values up to 1,200 parts per million (0.12 per cent) copper.

A total of 1,244 B-horizon soil samples were collected in 2025 over a three-kilometre section of the alteration corridor. Samples were collected at 50-metre intervals along northwest-southeast-trending survey lines spaced 200 metres apart.

Next steps at Thira

Final soil geochemical results will be compiled with results from the recently completed, 35-line-kilometre IP survey to identify new high-priority drill targets. Planning for a coming follow-up phase 2 drill program is currently under way.

Poplar project

The 44,200-hectare Poplar project in central British Columbia covers Mesozoic-aged arc-related volcanic, sedimentary and intrusive rocks considered prospective for porphyry-related copper and gold mineralization. In addition to the Thira target, the project also hosts the Poplar deposit, a near-surface porphyry-related copper and gold system. The Thira target is approximately 10 kilometres south of the Poplar deposit. Vizsla Copper has the option to earn a 100-per-cent interest in the property through a series of expenditure commitments and annual cash payments until 2027.

Sampling, chain of custody, quality assurance and quality control

Soil samples were prepared and analyzed at the ALS Global analytical laboratory in North Vancouver, B.C. ALS Global is registered to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditations for laboratory procedures.

Soil samples were dried on site before being shipped to the ALS Global laboratory. The samples were screened to minus 180 microns (SCR-41), analyzed using an aqua regia digestion (GEO-AuAR01) followed by a trace detection ICP-MS finish (method AuMe-TL43) on a 25-gram aliquot.

No standards or blanks were inserted by Vizsla Copper with the soil samples. ALS routinely inserts certified standards, blanks and pulp duplicates into the analytical stream. The standards, blanks and duplicate samples used by ALS are considered appropriate and the results are acceptable.
