RAMP METALS RECEIVES DRILL PERMIT FOR ROTTENSTONE SW, SASKATCHEWAN
Ramp Metals Inc. has received a two-year drill permit for its Rottenstone SW project in Saskatchewan. This permit allows the company to drill an additional 150 holes and to build a temporary camp on site as needed.
As per Ramp Metals' Oct. 21, 2025, news release, a mapping and sampling program was undertaken over the new and existing electromagnetic anomalies highlighted in the most recent HTDEM geophysical survey. During the field program, a total of 213 rock samples and 343 soil samples were taken. Ground FLTEM and borehole EM surveys were also completed. The samples were received at Bureau Veritas in Vancouver on Oct. 9, 2025, and are currently waiting to be analyzed. The company has been informed by BV that results are expected by the end of December.
The company is currently working with Stephen Balch and its advisers to combine and process all the geophysical data sets with the goal of creating a geophysical model and generating Maxwell plate models. The models and analytical data will be used to refine drill targets for the company's coming winter 2026 program.
Key drill prospects for 2026:
- Ranger: newly exposed shear zone located approximately 325 metres northeast of the Ranger-001 discovery hole;
- Redridge: newly identified 2.4-kilometre-long EM anomaly located approximately five kilometres south of Ranger; heavily oxidized with excellent outcrop exposure;
- Rush: ground FLTEM and borehole EM geophysical surveys completed for target refinement; three new satellite targets identified within one km of the main Rush anomaly.
"These newly granted two-year drill permits represent a huge milestone for Ramp Metals, unlocking a multiyear exploration runway and paving the way for an aggressive, high-impact drill campaign," commented Jordan Black, chief executive officer of Ramp Metals. "Lab results from our highly successful fall prospecting program are due shortly. Our technical team is thrilled to drill test the newly exposed NE-SW trending shear zone at Ranger, as well as the exceptional high-grade copper potential at both Rush and Redridge. These are district-scale opportunities, and we are perfectly positioned to deliver transformative discoveries in the near term."
Quality assurance/quality control and geochemical sampling procedure
Rock and soil samples from the most recent field program were submitted to BV using the following packages and procedures.
Rock samples are prepared using the PRP70-250 package, where samples are weighed, dried and crushed to greater than 70 per cent passing a two-millimetre sieve, and then pulverized to greater than 85 per cent passing 75 microns. Samples are then analyzed in accordance with BV's FA330 and MA300 packages for both gold, platinum and palladium analysis by fire assay (30-gram fire assay with AAS finish) and multielement ICP analysis (0.25 gram, multiacid and ICP-ES analysis). Gold returning less than 10 parts per million is automatically analyzed by gravimetric method in accordance with BV's standard of practice.
Soil samples are prepared using BV's SS80 package, where samples are dried at 60 C and sieved to depletion to minus 180 micrometres (80 mesh). Samples are then analyzed in accordance with BV's AQ251 plus PGM package, an ultratrace by ICP-MS analysis, where aqua regia digestion is used for low to ultralow determination on soils followed by a 37-element (including gold) ICP-MS with the platinum and palladium add-on for analysis of a 15-gram sample.
