VIZSLA COPPER IDENTIFIES ADDITIONAL IP CHARGEABILITY ANOMALIES ACROSS THE THIRA ALTERATION CORRIDOR, POPLAR PROJECT

Vizsla Copper Corp. has released results from a recently completed direct current induced polarization geophysical survey along trend of its Thira discovery on the Poplar project in central British Columbia.

Highlights:

• Multiple untested DCIP chargeability anomalies are present.
• Anomalies are similar in scale to the DCIP chargeability anomaly associated with the Thira discovery.
• A phase 2 winter drill program is planned for first quarter of 2026 at Thira.

"I am encouraged by the number of top-quality drill targets present within the Thira alteration footprint," commented Steve Blower, vice-president, exploration. "We have always thought that the eight-by-two-kilometre footprint is large enough to host multiple porphyry centres, and this survey supports that interpretation. Our team is eagerly awaiting the next phase of drilling in the first quarter of 2026."

The DCIP survey

The grid-based DCIP survey across the Thira alteration corridor consisted of 39.8 line kilometres across 15 northwest-southeast-oriented lines spaced 400 metres apart. The survey expanded on the 2024 DCIP survey that only covered the centre of the alteration corridor (see Jan. 15, 2025, news release). The 2025 survey was designed to characterize and detect subsurface sulphide mineralization associated with eastern and western extents of the largely till-covered eight-by-two-kilometre Thira alteration corridor.

Recently completed drilling at the Thira discovery outlined an open-ended, approximately 800-by-500-metre footprint of strong porphyry-related 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 g/t gold from 117.7 metres downhole in TH25-145) (see Oct. 20, 2025, news release)). This mineralized zone, consisting of chalcopyrite-molybdenite-bearing stockwork, is spatially coincident with soil geochemical and geophysical (airborne electromagnetic and ground DCIP) anomalies (see Jan. 15, 2025, and Nov. 6, 2025, news releases). The DCIP data highlight a moderate-chargeability response surrounded by a halo of strong-chargeability response. This chargeability pattern is interpreted to reflect a centre of chalcopyrite-molybdenite-bearing potassic alteration surrounded by a broad zone of highly chargeable, pyrite-bearing phyllic alteration.

Modelling and interpretation of the recently acquired DCIP chargeability and resistivity data are continuing; however, preliminary data products suggest the presence of two additional target areas: Copper Pond and Camp Lake. At both targets, a zone of moderate chargeability is surrounded by zones of very high chargeability, similar to the Thira discovery. The centre of these anomalies has yet to be systematically drill tested and represents priority areas for future drill programs.

Next steps at Thira

Three-dimensional inverted models of chargeability and resistivity data from the 2024 and 2025 DCIP surveys are currently being constructed. These models will be integrated with other geophysical and soil geochemical data sets to generate new drill targets for a planned winter drill program in first quarter of 2026.

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.
