(TheNewswire)

GRANDE PRAIRIE, AB, (September 30, 2025): – TheNewswire – Angkor Resources Corp. (TSXV: ANK and OTC: ANKOF) (‘Angkor’ or ‘the Company’) announces its energy subsidiary, EnerCam Resources Co. Ltd. (Cambodia) (‘EnerCam’) has completed the onshore 350-line kilometer 2D seismic program on Block VIII, including the newly added area of Mussel Basin.

The seismic program is the first onshore seismic for the Kingdom of Cambodia since preliminary lines were shot in 2008 and in 2013.   The Company contracted and used EnviroSeis equipment for low impact and high data coverage.  The seismic program covered areas across the four provinces of Sihanoukville, Kampong Speu, Koh Kong and Kampot.

President of EnerCam, Mike Weeks commented on the program, ‘We are so impressed with the quality of work from our local staff, who worked through some less than optimal weather conditions to help facilitate acquiring this valuable data.   We will be completing a preliminary assessment of the data as it becomes available and then a secondary assessment to hopefully define drill targets.’

Processing and interpretation of the data from the 350-line kilometers will occur over several months by multiple parties and is expected to arrive in segments as each seismic line is processed.

Full length of the program was 47 days, starting at 5:00 am daily with standard safety and tailgate meetings and then crews deployed for three rotational activities, namely:

• to go ahead of vibration units to place geophones and data recorders along designated paths;

• to go sweep an area already installed with recorders and geophones with vibration units; and

• to go behind the areas of completed sweeps and pick up recorders and geophones to deploy to the next proposed line.

A team of 53 people participated in training and then worked 12-hour days, seven days per week to accomplish the program.   Of the personnel, 13 Thai came in as part of the contracted team and the remaining 40 were Khmer people, the majority of which were from local villages and 12 of them were trainees from the Institute of Technology in their 4 th or 5 th year of their geoscience studies.

Keith Edwards, Technical Manager for EnerCam, had these words, ‘We have seen the preliminary processing (brute stack) for 9 of the 24 lines and can already see a broad, closed structure with some parallel beds and some more complex stratigraphy with amplitude bright spots.  With no wells we won’t know for sure what formations we are dealing with until we drill.  We have acquired the data in such a manner to get ‘extra’ coverage by having live receivers on nearby parallel lines.  This gives us additional coverage in key areas that we hope will allow us to see the complex reflectors in map view. as a ‘poor mans 3D’.  The figure below shows the midpoint density map without and with recording on nearby lines.’

Cartier Resources Inc. (″ Cartier ″ or the ″ Company ″) (TSXV: ECR,OTC:ECRFF; FSE: 6CA) is pleased to announce it has awarded the contract to Soutex, a firm specializing in mineral processing and metallurgy, to carry out the first advanced and comprehensive metallurgical sampling and testwork program for the Main Sector of its Cadillac Project.

Key Objectives of the Program

• Defining expected gold recovery rates and improving upon historical results from the Chimo deposit.
• Establishing first-time metallurgical recovery data for the East Chimo and West Nordeau satellite deposits, where no previous data exists.
• Supporting the development of an integrated process flowsheet .
• Providing critical data for future trade-off studies to guide project development.

‘ The metallurgical program represents a critical de-risking milestone to advance the development of the Cadillac Project. By understanding how the mineralized material responds to conventional processing methods, we can define the most efficient and cost-effective flowsheet. This has the potential to significantly reduce both capital and operating costs, while also improving our environmental footprint. The data generated will directly support optimized project development and enhance our economic models. In short, these test results will strengthen the technical foundation of the project and help unlock greater shareholder value . ‘ – Philippe Cloutier, President and CEO of Cartier.

‘ Following the recent launch of baseline environmental studies, we’re pleased to advance the Cadillac Project with the initiation of our first modern metallurgical test program. With historical data now nearly 30 years old, it was essential for Cartier to generate updated, high-quality data that reflects current standards. This comprehensive program will characterize the mineralized material, gold recovery potential, and validate optimal grind size (key inputs for future engineering and economic studies). Combined with our ongoing 100,000-metre drill program, these initiatives position us to unlock the full value of the Cadillac Project. ‘ – Ronan Deroff, Vice President Exploration of Cartier.

Historical Production Recovery (source: MRNF DV 85-05 to DV 97-01 + internal company reports)

The mineralized material from the Chimo mine (Chimo deposit) was processed by 3 different producers: Chimo Gold Mines (1966-67), Louvem (1984-1989) and Cambior (1989-1997). The flowsheet was focused on gravity separation, flotation and cyanidation of flotation concentrate. Records show that from 1966 through 1997, approximatively 2.4 million tonnes of mineralized material have been processed. During the 15-year period production, the historical average recovery was 90.6% of the contained gold. These numbers appear to underestimate the deposit and should be able to improve, since the first two operators of the Chimo mine (Chimo Gold Mines and Louvem) had good extraction results, around 94%, while the last production period by Cambior showed a significant drop in recoveries with only 89% of the contained gold.

There is no metallurgical information available for the other deposits of the Main Sector like East Chimo and West Nordeau deposits.

Methodology of the Metallurgical Testwork Program

To achieve the program objectives, the testwork will be conducted on NQ-size half-drill core intervals spatially selected to be representative of both the type of mineralization and the average head grade of the resource. A total of 6 composites for 300 kg from the three deposits (Chimo, East Chimo and West Nordeau) will be generated including two 50 kg-composites for each deposit. The composites will be assembled by Cartier geologists.

All composites of the three deposits will be subject to cyanidation tests at three different grind sizes. After these tests, gravimetric concentration separation followed by a cyanide destruction tests of the gravity tails will be done at the grind size showing the best results. In addition to the metallurgical program, comminution test, as well as chemical and mineralogical characterization, will also be performed to define the grindability of the mineralized material and predict his behaviour in the process.

Saga Metals Financing Sets the Stage for Advanced Exploration at the Radar Project

Key Highlights:

• Saga’s field team is on-site preparing for the planned 15,000-metre drill program at the Radar Ti-V-Fe Project in Labrador, Canada.
• Drilling is focused on advancing the Trapper Zone’s 3+ km strike toward a maiden MRE highlighting titanium, vanadium, and iron ore—critical minerals for the global energy transition.
• Ongoing site work includes trench mapping, surveying, and full camp establishment to optimize drill execution.
• Infrastructure is in place with new access trails along the oxide layering strike through the Trapper Zone.
• The preparation phase is expected to conclude in the coming weeks, with the 15,000m drilling program scheduled to commence in early November 2025.

Preparation begins for a 15,000m Drill Program at the Radar Ti-V-Fe Project:

Field preparations are underway across the Radar Project’s Trapper Zone, which spans over a 3+ km strike of oxide mineralization. This mobilization marks a significant step in preparing for a major drill program aimed at expanding known mineralization and advancing toward the completion of a maiden mineral resource estimate (MRE) on the project.

Current work is designed to strengthen drill targeting, maximize efficiency, and ensure high-quality geological data accuracy for the MRE, including:

1. Enhanced Trench Analysis

Building on approximately 504 square metres (5,425 ft²) of trenching completed to date, SAGA is conducting additional high-pressure power washing and detailed geological mapping in three trenches within the Trapper Zone. This work exposes clean bedrock surfaces by removing overburden and vegetation, allowing geologists to document rock types, mineral textures, and oxide layering trends with precision. The process will help refine 3D geological models, confirm continuity of vanadiferous titanomagnetite (VTM) mineralization, and identify the most prospective high-grade drill targets.

2. Surveying and Geophysical Preparation

Crews are also executing a comprehensive surveying program to support drill collar placement and spatial accuracy across the Trapper Zone. Using high-precision GPS, total stations, and laser scanning technology, the team is mapping the newly built 4 km Trapper Trail access route, establishing a geophysics baseline, and cutting grid lines (cutlines) through vegetation to enable further geophysical traverses. The geophysics baseline will serve as a calibration reference for magnetometer instruments, ensuring consistent and reliable detection of anomalies that may indicate subsurface mineralization. Collectively, these surveys are designed to eliminate spatial errors in modelling and optimize drill hole targeting.

3. Establishing Full Camp Infrastructure

To support the scale of the upcoming 15,000 metre drill program, SAGA has secured land near Cartwright, Labrador, for the establishment of a fully serviced exploration camp. The camp will include accommodations, a kitchen trailer, a core shack for drill core logging and storage, an office for data management, and a cut shack for sample preparation. Utility infrastructure—including power generation, water storage and filtration, and septic systems—is being installed to ensure long-term operational stability. With this infrastructure in place, SAGA is positioned to support long-term stability and efficiency for the crews managing this milestone drill program.

Summary of the Radar Ti-V-Fe Project in Labrador, Canada:

The Radar Property benefits from exceptional infrastructure, including all-season road access, a nearby deep-water port, hydroelectric power, and an airstrip with claims just 10 km from Cartwright, Labrador. Spanning 24,175 hectares, the property covers all the Dykes River intrusive complex—an extensive (~160 km²) Mesoproterozoic layered mafic intrusion. Unique amongst Western exploration companies, SAGA controls its entire intrusive complex.

Grenville-age mafic layered intrusions of Québec and Labrador represent a significant but underdeveloped titanium–vanadium–iron resource province. These layered intrusions, emplaced during the Grenvillian orogeny, locally host thick oxide-rich cumulate zones dominated by titanomagnetite and hemo-ilmenite with accessory vanadium and phosphorus. Their scale and metallogenic affinity are directly comparable to major Fe–Ti–V deposits such as Lac Tio (Quebec), Panzhihua (China), Tellnes (Norway) and Bushveld (South Africa), which supply a major share of global TiO₂ feedstock and vanadium for steel alloys and emerging energy storage markets. The combination of large tonnage potential, favourable logistics, and critical mineral content positions the Grenville intrusions, such as Radar’s Dykes River complex, as strategic candidates for development in the context of growing North American demand for titanium, vanadium and high-quality iron.

Early geological mapping, government magnetic surveys and ground-based geophysics of the Radar property have identified oxide layering across more than 20 km of strike length, with mineralized zones remaining open for expansion. Vanadiferous titanomagnetite (VTM) is the principal oxide and occurs as cumulate and intercumulus mineralization over large thicknesses of the Dykes River layered intrusion.

The property is well serviced by road access and is conveniently located near the town of Cartwright, Labrador. A compilation of historical aeromagnetic anomalies is overlaid by ground-based geophysics as shown. SAGA has demonstrated the reliability of the regional airborne magnetic surveys after ground-truthing and drilling in the 2024 and 2025 field programs.

SAGA’s 2025 Winter Drill Program at Radar:

Saga completed its maiden drill program in early 2025, featuring a 2,209-metre, seven-hole diamond drill campaign across the Hawkeye Zone—a combination of 3D magnetic inversion modeling and surface VLF-EM results guided drill targeting. The program intersected broad zones of titanomagnetite-rich oxide layering, with cumulative intersections displaying consistent grades of titanium dioxide (TiO ₂ ), vanadium pentoxide (V ₂ O ₅ ) and iron (Fe).

Similarities in the ratios of TiO ₂ and V2O ₅ to Fe ₃ O ₄ across multiple drill holes serve to identify discrete igneous layers. Within the 600 m tested thickness of the layered gabbronorite, the chemistry delineates a very promising 300-400 m thickness, referred to as the Lower Cumulate Layer. The highest V ₂ O ₅ assays are in the lower 100-200 m, coinciding with the highest-grade intervals of VTMs. The layer is comprised of interlayered gabbronorite and bands of semi-massive to massive VTM.

Drill holes R25-HEZ-01, -07, -04, and -05 intersect this Lower Cumulate Layer. The chemistry indicates that the layer was deposited from a large-volume pulse of Ti-V-Fe-enriched magma. Saga will be targeting this same discrete intrusive horizon along the Trapper Zone’s 3+ km strike length.

Magnetic and VLF-EM Survey to Extend the ‘Trapper Zone’

As crews prepare for the 15,000 m drill program, a small geophysics team will continue a ground-based magnetic survey over the northern and southern extensions of the Trapper Zone. The survey utilizes a GSM-19 magnetometer to collect magnetic-field and VLF-EM data (using VLF Transmitter Cutler).

The survey is conducted using a grid of N-S lines, spaced 50 m apart, with observations made at stations spaced 20 m apart along the lines. The tightly gridded stations will be used to map the extent to which the oxide layering strike continues to the NE-E at the top of the zone and SE-E at the bottom of the zone, both trending back towards the Hawkeye Zone.

SAGA has demonstrated the reliability of the regional airborne magnetic surveys after ground-truthing and drilling in the 2024 and 2025 field programs .
