Vancouver, British Columbia TheNewswire – September 15th, 2025 Prismo Metals Inc. (the ‘ Company ‘ ) (CSE: PRIZ,OTC:PMOMF) (OTCQB: PMOMF) is pleased to report that its exploration team has identified porphyry style mineralization at its Silver King project located outside the town of Superior in Arizona. Given the proximity of the nearby Resolution Copper deposit (a joint venture between Rio Tinto and BHP), the team is excited about the potential of this same style of mineralization identified at surface within the eastern portion of our claim.

‘ This region is world-class for porphyry systems and base and precious metals, and we believe there is significant untapped potential. Our recent field work at the Silver King mine was successful in identifying several exploration targets apart from the historic silver mine deposit including polymetallic veins, manto replacements and a strongly altered intrusion with stockwork quartz-pyrite veining. Identifying this porphyry style mineralization on the claim block is a very positive development ,’ said Dr. Craig Gibson , Chief Exploration Officer.

The Silver King deposit is located three kilometers from the Resolution Copper deposit and the high-grade Magma mine, a former copper and silver producer, located 0.6 to 1.5 kilometers to the southwest Mineralization at Silver King is hosted by the same rock sequence that hosts those two deposits but is exposed at surface and is not covered by the thick sequence of unmineralized volcanic rocks that covers Resolution Copper. From 1911 to 1996 the Magma mine was developed on veins and replacement deposits in the Paleozoic and Precambrian strata and intrusive rocks, producing approximately 27.6 million short tons of ore averaging about 4.9% copper with important quantities of zinc, gold (689K oz) and silver (34.3M oz) (Briggs, 2015), eventually leading to the discovery of the nearby Resolution copper deposit (Fig. 1).

M ineralization similar to that at the Magma mine is exposed in several historic mine workings with abundant oxide copper minerals, mainly malachite, which were developed along a northeast dipping limestone horizon near the contact with a quartz diorite intrusion and quartzite along the same structural and stratigraphic trend of the Magma mine. The largest occurrence, at the Black Diamond mine in the eastern portion of the claim block, was developed on a large outcrop of abundant specular hematite and malachite replacing a limestone bed (Fig. 2) .

Additionally, an erosional window in a regional quartz diorite has exposed a felsic intrusion to the east of the Silver King workings that was identified in historical records and now confirmed by Prismo geologists.  This felsic intrusion, previously described as a breccia pipe, is characterized by very strong stockwork quartz-pyrite veining in a quartz-sericite altered host rock. This target contains anomalous metal values in soil samples analyzed with the XRF. According to historical reports it has high salinity fluid inclusions typical of a porphyry system, providing evidence for porphyry mineralization on the Silver King claim package.

‘Much of the focus of the exploration program to date consisted of a property wide survey of historic mines and prospects surrounding the Silver King workings, ‘ said Gordon Aldcorn, President of Prismo .

‘ The exploration work has resulted in the identification of several mineralized occurrences on the property, including veins in the vicinity of the Silver King mine, and replacement and skarn mineralization in limestone units of the sedimentary sequence near the contact.’

Part of the initial exploration program consisted of a reconnaissance survey of the geology and mineral occurrences as well as a geochemical and alteration mineral survey around the surface expression of the Silver King deposit and a second separate target to the east.

The geochemical survey used a handheld XRF instrument to measure soil samples, and showed discrete anomalies for Cu, Ag, and Sb around the historic glory hole, with the copper geochemistry also associated with the ENE striking Cu bearing vein mentioned previously (Fig. 3). Twenty-nine samples have been submitted to the lab, with an additional fifteen samples from the Ripsey mine.

This initial phase of Prismo exploration on the Silver King project is already generating a better understanding of potential with new structures not fully uncovered in historical mining approaches. This work also helps qualify our upcoming drill program which is currently in the permitting stage and is anticipated to be advanced shortly.

As previously reported in Primo’s news release of August 28, 2025, the Company geologists identified two previously undescribed veins in the area surrounding the historic glory hole developed on the original exposure of high-grade silver at the Silver King deposit.  Visual inspection and analysis with a handheld XRF show two distinct veins, one with abundant silver lead and zinc and the other with copper and silver values.

About the Silver King and Ripsey Mines

Discovered in 1875, the Silver King mine was one of Arizona’s most important historic producers, yielding nearly 6 million ounces of silver at grades of up to 61 oz/t.  The Silver King mine sits only 3 km from the main shaft of the Resolution Copper project — a joint venture between Rio Tinto and BHP and one of the world’s largest unmined copper deposits with an estimated copper resource of 1.787 billion metric tonnes at an average grade of 1.5% copper (1) . The unique land position is fully surrounded by Resolution Copper’s claim block, offering strategic upside. Selected samples from small-scale production in the late 1990s returned grades as high as 644 oz/t silver (18,250 g/t) and 0.53 oz/t gold (15 g/t), indicating that high-grade mineralization remains.

The Ripsey mine is a historic gold-silver-copper producer located about 20 km west of the Hot Breccia project. Historic mine workings consisting of tunnels and shafts on several levels were developed along a vein over about 400 meters of strike length and 160 meters vertically. A small tonnage of mineral was produced by the Optionor in the late 1990’s. Limited sampling by Dr. Craig Gibson from the mine workings has yielded 15.9 g/t gold and 275 g/t silver over 0.75 meters and 8.7 g/t gold, 181 g/t silver, 3% copper and 9% zinc over 1 meter.  No modern exploration has been carried out at the project, providing significant exploration upside and multiple drill targets.

As reported previously, an NI 43 101 has been submitted to the TMX V Exchange for review and approval., The Regulators initial review determined that the submission would be treated as a Fundamental Transaction requiring additional information and the Company is responding accordingly.

Property Summary:

Permits for a Bulk Sample, Water, Road Access, Environmental, Plan of Operation, Mill Site have been approved. To date, there has not been any known drilling or modern-day Scientific exploration or identified NI 43 101 resources.

The La Dama de Oro Property is in the Silver Mountain Mining District, within the structurally complex Eastern California Shear Zone and the intersection with the San Andreas Fault Zone. Bedrock geology includes Mesozoic quartz monzonite that intrudes the Jurassic Sidewinder Volcanics. The structural history of the region implies a sequence of compressional and extensional events that reactivated favorably oriented zones of weakness for the circulation of hydrothermal fluids. The main zone of mineralization is hosted by the La Dama de Oro Fault, a shallow northeast-dipping oblique-slip fault.

The mineralization at the property is classified as a structurally controlled, low-sulfidation epithermal gold-silver vein system. Gold and silver mineralization is associated with multi-phase quartz veining, brecciation, and pervasive hydrothermal alteration along the La Dama de Oro Fault. The largest known vein is 4.5 feet at its widest point and remains open to exploration for over 6,000 feet. The gold system has robust potential not just within the La Dama de Oro vein, but as well for additional undiscovered veins along the fault system.

Allied Critical Metals Inc. (CSE: ACM,OTC:ACMIF) (OTCQB: ACMIF) (FSE: 0VJ0) (‘Allied’ or the ‘Company’), which is focused on its 100% owned past producing Borralha and Vila Verde tungsten projects in northern Portugal, is pleased to announce additional significant assay results from its ongoing 4,200 metres reverse circulation (RC) drilling campaign at its Borralha Tungsten Project. The latest results from drill holes Bo_RC_1525, Bo_RC_1725, and Bo_RC_2225 extend mineralization both west and north of the previously announced Bo_RC_1425 high-grade intercept, reinforcing that the Santa Helena Breccia within the Borralha Project is emerging as a larger and higher-grade orebody than previously modeled. The Company will commence an additional fully funded 1,528 metre drilling in the fourth quarter of 2025 to build off the drilling success in July.

The results are especially timely as tungsten price has now reached a new high of U.S.$550/MTU, which is an increase of more than 40% over the past four months as demand for the critical mineral increases in the face of further supply chain restrictions from non-Western countries [Source: FastMarkets].

Roy Bonnell, CEO & Director of Allied, commented: ‘These thick, continuous intervals in the central-south and the new northern deep lode materially expand the working envelope at the Santa Helena Breccia in Borralha. Together with the previously reported ultra-high-grade intercept in Bo_RC_14/25, we see clear evidence of a system that is both bigger and better than we initially assumed. This is exactly the kind of data we want feeding into the upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). Moreover, the results demonstrate the potential of Borralha as a key strategic, safe, and secure source of tungsten for Portugal, the EU and NATO.’

João Barros, President & COO of Allied, stated: ‘Tungsten is recognized by the European Union as both a critical and strategic raw material under the CRMA. With Europe producing less than 3% of its annual needs and facing increasing Chinese export restrictions, the Borralha Project represents a vital opportunity to strengthen secure, Western-aligned supply chains. Our work directly supports the EU target of sourcing at least 10% of its critical raw materials domestically by 2030, while reinforcing Portugal’s role as a key contributor to Europe’s strategic independence. ‘

General (Ret.) James A. ‘Spider’ Marks, Director of the Company’s U.S. subsidiary, stated: ‘Expanding the mineral resource at the Borralha Project is an essential next step in path to fulfilling the immense need in Portugal, the EU, NATO and the United States for tungsten powders, concentrates and other byproducts. The U.S. and NATO defense military complexes are dependent on tungsten. Without domestic supply of tungsten, the Borralha Project becomes a very important piece to the critical mineral supply chains for the United States and NATO.’

These latest drilling results are highly significant because they combine both scale and grade. The long intercepts at 0.21-0.33% WO₃ in Bo_RC_17/25 are particularly meaningful in wolframite systems. In addition, the drilling program is clearly growing the footprint of the Breccia complex. The Bo_RC_22/25 delineates a northern deep lode, while Bo_RC_15/25 ties the west-deep high-grade corridor back to the main body-both lines of evidence supporting a larger Santa Helena Breccia, the principal mineralized body at Borralha Project.

Geologic Interpretation

The geologic interpretation indicates that the Santa Helena Breccia is expanding: the combination of broad medium-grade intervals and discrete high-grade intercepts points to a larger, better-connected breccia body than previously modeled. Priority vectors for follow-up include the west-dip high-grade trend (Bo_RC_14/25 and Bo_RC_15/25) and the northern wider deep lode (Bo_RC_22/25), which will guide near-term drilling and feed the Q4 2025 MRE and subsequent PEA workstreams.

Next steps

Ongoing drilling continues to target west-deep and northern extensions while tightening spacing across the MRE backbone. Additional assays from completed holes will be released as received and validated. The program remains aligned with the timeline toward an updated MRE (Q4 2025) and PEA thereafter.

Technical Information and Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC)

Drilling was completed using reverse-circulation (RC). All sample bags were pre-labelled with a unique internal sequence number used consistently for the assay sample and corresponding reject. Sampling was conducted on 2.0 m intervals for analytics. For each 2.0 m interval, two 1.0 m reject samples were also collected as representative splits. Splitting was performed at the rig via a rotary splitter integral to the RC cyclone.

Sampling followed pre-prepared sample lists that recorded downhole metreage, sequence, and the placement of Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) and field duplicates. CRMs were inserted at a rate of 1 in 20 samples (5%) and field duplicates at 1 in 20 samples (5%), arranged so that every 10th sample alternated between a CRM and a duplicate.

Analytical and reject samples were boxed at the drill site and transported by company personnel to the project core/logging facility. Analytical samples were stored on labelled pallets pending direct shipment to ALS’s preparation laboratory in Seville, Spain. Pulps and rejects were subsequently stored securely in the project logging room.

At ALS Seville, samples were crushed to 70% passing 2 mm, riffle-split to ~250 g, and pulverized using hardened steel to 85% passing 75 μm. Pulps were shipped to ALS Loughrea (Ireland) for analysis. The primary analytical method was ME-MS81 (lithium borate fusion with ICP-MS finish). Base metals were also reported using ME-4ACD81 (four-acid digestion with ICP-MS finish). Over-limit tungsten results were re-assayed using W-XRF15b (lithium borate fusion with XRF). Analytical results were delivered directly by ALS to the Company via secure electronic transfer.

To the best of the Company’s knowledge, no drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors have been identified that would materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referenced herein.

Where reported, metal factor (m·%WO₃) is the product of interval length and grade and is provided as supplemental context only. Primary disclosure remains the reported grade and interval length (and true width where known).

Mr. Arezes is not independent of Allied Critical Metals Inc. as he is an officer of the Company.

Understanding Tungsten

To understand tungsten, it is critical to understand the difference between wolframite tungsten mineralization and scheelite tungsten mineralization. Scheelite often reports higher grades (0.3%-1.0% WO₃) but is more costly and complex to process, requiring flotation methods with higher capital and operating expenditures and lower recoveries.ⁱ In contrast, wolframite, which is the focus of Allied, can be processed more efficiently using gravity and magnetic separation, resulting in lower costs and higher recoveries, making lower grades (~0.15%-0.25% WO₃) economically viable in wolframite deposits. For example, a wolframite deposit with 0.4% WO₃ over 3 metres can be more profitable than a scheelite deposit with 0.7% WO₃ over the same interval due to lower processing costs and higher recovery rates.ⁱⁱ

In Western exploration drilling, tungsten grades typically range from 0.3% to 1.0% WO₃.ⁱⁱⁱ The cut-off grade for economic viability is generally around 0.1% WO₃, with highly efficient operations able to mine at grades as low as 0.08% WO₃. Skarn deposits, a common deposit type, typically range from 0.34% to 1.4% WO₃, with intercepts of 0.4% WO₃ over 1-5 metres considered very good and 0.7% WO₃ over 1-3 metres considered very high-grade.^iv Intercept lengths can range from 0.6 metres to over 100 metres, with longer intercepts at strong grades generally preferred for economic mining.

Published exploration results in Western jurisdictions demonstrate the standards for wolframite, with reported intercepts such as ~9-15 m @ 0.6-0.8% WO₃, ~18 m @ 1.0% WO₃, and typical intervals of 1-5 m @ 0.25-0.5% WO₃. A result like 0.5% WO₃ over 3 metres is generally considered strong within Western tungsten exploration benchmarks, especially for wolframite tungsten mineralization.^v

It is also important to recognize that China, Russia, and North Korea control approximately 87% of the world’s tungsten supply, using cheap labor and minimal environmental standards in authoritarian regimes. ^vi As a result, production costs and grades in these countries are not comparable to Western projects, which operate under higher labor, ESG, and energy cost structures. Evaluating projects outside these regions provides a realistic benchmark for what grades and intercepts are economically viable while supporting secure, NATO-aligned supply chains.

For Allied, this context is significant. Wolframite tungsten grades, ranging from 0.2% to 1.0% WO₃ are strong global wolframite benchmark values. The Company’s focus on wolframite ensures lower processing costs and higher recoveries, supporting project economics even at lower grades. Allied’s operations in secure jurisdictions align with Western critical mineral needs, avoiding geopolitical risks associated with China and Russia while positioning the Company to benefit from growing tungsten demand across defense, aerospace, and electrification sectors. Allied’s strong grades, low-cost processing advantages, and secure location position it as a strategic and responsible tungsten exploration company, well placed to support robust project economics in a rising-demand market. ^vii

Highlights from the program include:

• Verification of gold mineralization at historic trenches in the southwest part of the Property, with one sample returning 3.38 g/t Au.
• New gold-silver showing south of the 111 Zone, with a maximum of 952 ppb Au and 300 ppm Ag.

Prospecting was carried out over a flagged 800 m by 1 km grid centered on the 111 Zone, where grab samples returned from 10 ppb Au up to 68 g/t Au last Fall (see Bold news release dated January 9, 2025), and along strike to the southwest towards the western Property boundary. Additional locations both along and across strike were sampled. Limited channel sampling was carried out where outcrop could be accessed by hand stripping. In total, 42 samples were collected (see Table 2 and Figure 2 for significant channel sample results).

Limited channel sampling at the 111 Zone revealed that the anomalous gold zone is at least 4.5 to 6.5 meters wide (apparent width), open to the southeast, where outcrop exposure terminated under overburden and along strike in both directions. The highest value obtained was 2.1 g/t Au (and 1250 ppm Cu) over 0.5 meters, with 14 samples in the 100-500 ppb Au range. 3 samples also returned 0.1% or greater zinc, with a maximum of 0.27% Zn over 0.7 m (see Table 2 and Figure 2).

Combined with previous geological mapping and sampling (2023 and 2024), airborne electromagnetic and magnetic surveys (2006, 2019), and historical data compilation, the results of this sampling program will guide the mechanical stripping, mapping and sampling program commencing immediately. This first phase will expose a number of locations along an emerging anomalous gold mineralized trend that extends northeast from near the western Property boundary over a distance of approximately 2.9 km to the 111 Zone and beyond (see Figure 1). This trend appears to be associated with a magnetic low geophysical signature and remains open to the eastern boundary of the claim group which has seen very little exploration to date.

Prospecting Results

209 samples were collected during the summer prospecting program. Several new gold-in-bedrock anomalies were identified on or close to the 111 Zone flagged grid (see Figure 1). These occur close to the contacts between mafic metavolcanics and intermediate or felsic metavolcanics. Significant anomalous results include:

• 952 ppb Au (with 260 ppm Ag, 0.44% Pb, 0.18% Zn, and 490 ppm Bi) from a 5 cm quartz vein in sheared diorite, 180 meters south-southeast of the 111 Zone, dubbed the ‘Winter Gold Occurrence.’
• 931 ppb Au (with 300 ppm Ag, 0.54% Pb, 0.19% Zn, and 584 ppm Bi) from the same vein at Winter Gold.
• 706 ppb Au (with 0.17% Zn and 155 ppm Mo) 780 meters west-southwest of the 111 Zone, from altered mafic volcanic rocks.
• 207 ppb Au (with 1.34% Zn and 0.36% Pb) 450 meters west-northwest of the 111 Zone, from quartz sericite schist.
• 412 ppb Au and 1.49% Cu in quartz sericite schist from a location 220 meters northeast of the 111 Zone.
• At the 111 Zone 3 samples returned anomalous zinc values with a maximum of 0.28% Zn.

See Table 1 and Figure 1. New gold-in-rock anomalies are frequently associated with zinc, copper and lead pathfinders, which is consistent with the soil sampling results reported on August 18, 2025. They show that gold and base metal geochemical anomalies tend to cluster near contacts between mafic metavolcanics and felsic or intermediate metavolcanics. A follow up prospecting program is currently underway to explore these soil geochemical anomalies.

Prospecting in the southwest part of the Property also yielded new gold-in-rock anomalies (see Figure 1), which include:

• 371 ppb Au from altered, sheared quartz feldspar porphyry (QFP) in local float, as well as two other samples >100 ppb Au in outcrop and subcrop. This new zone of sheared QFP has been dubbed the ‘Moosehead Zone’ and occurs along the side of a northwest-facing slope on the edge of low ground. This zone is located 2.5 km southwest of the 111 Zone, and like the 111 Zone occurs in a magnetic low.
• 188 ppb Au and 106 ppb Au from altered intermediate volcanic rock and porphyritic rock respectively, from outcrop and talus, approximately 600 meters along strike to the northeast of the Moosehead Zone, along a similar slope indicating that the gold bearing rocks may also continue under overburden to the northwest.
• 288 ppb Au from altered mafic metavolcanic rock and 118 ppb Au from sulphide iron formation, in close proximity to each other approximately 900 meters north-northwest of the Moosehead Zone.
• 125 ppb Au from an angular boulder of intermediate volcanics with quartz-magnetite veining approximately 1.2 km north-northwest of Moosehead.

Sampling of historic trenches in the southwest part of the Property, approximately 600 meters north of the Moosehead Zone, confirmed historic gold mineralization with a highest result of 3.38 g/t Au. This area has yet to be comprehensively mapped, prospected and sampled. See Table 1 and Figure 1.

These showings demonstrate the potential for parallel zones in variable rock types across the Property. They are also all in the general vicinity of the extension of the Kawa Trend of Goldshore Resources (GSHR), along which GSHR reported a grab sample which returned 33.7 g/t Au, 0.64% Zn and 75 ppm Mo (note: the qualified person has been unable to verify results reported by GSHR and these are not necessarily indicative of mineralization present on the Burchell Property). From the southwest end of the Moosehead Zone to the northeastern-most gold anomaly on the 111 grid, a 2.9 km discontinuous gold trend has now been identified. See Figure 1.

An exploration permit which includes backhoe stripping was recently obtained by the Company (see Bold’s August 28, 2025 news release), which will allow the Company to expose the 111 Zone and sample the gold-bearing horizon in detail.

Bruce MacLachlan, President and COO of Bold Ventures, said of the results: ‘It is encouraging that numerous gold anomalies were obtained from our summer prospecting and sampling programs. New gold, silver and base metal showings along a 3 km trend within parallel zones that cross multiple rock types indicate some size potential, most notably at the 111 Zone where we will have the opportunity to expose it by backhoe and sample more thoroughly.’
