HER-25-25 Intersects Margins of a New Blind Copper Porphyry System at the Southern Flats Zone, Hercules Project, Idaho

Tue, 26 May 2026 07:00:00 -0400

0.66% CuEq over 177 Meters at the Edge of Large MT Conductivity Anomaly - Step-Out Drilling Underway

New Mineralized Center: HER-25-25 has intersected alteration and veining consistent with the outer margins of a new porphyry center, with step-out drilling underway to vector towards the causative porphyry intrusion.

Distinct Style: The style of mineralization is distinct from that at Leviathan, with a greater proportion of quartz vein-hosted mineralization and stronger grades than would typically be observed on the margins of the Leviathan system.

Increasing Alteration Intensity: Reconnaissance drilling, from east to west at Southern Flats, has systematically vectored

Hercules Metals Announces Positive Results of Induced Polarization Survey at New Targets, Hercules Project, Idaho

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 07:00:00 -0400

New Survey Shows IP Chargeability Coincident with MT Conductivity Anomalies at Pegasus and Hook Targets, with Inaugural Drilling Commencing in the Coming Weeks
New Pegasus and Hook targets, situated along strike from the Company's Leviathan porphyry copper discovery, are now drill-ready, following results of a ~17-line-kilometer IP survey.
Rapidly completed multi-phase MT and IP surveys reveal the targets are both conductive and chargeable, with a similar scale and geometry to the original Leviathan discovery.
At the Hook target, a previously announced MT conductivity anomaly (~400 ohm-m) was surveyed with IP, revealing coincident strong chargeability (up to 25

Long-Term Exploration Rights with Purchase Optionality – An eight-year lease provides full exploration rights, including drilling, with a clear pathway to acquire a 100% interest.
Strategic Land Consolidation – If exercised, adds approximately 1,473 acres of private land, including both surface and mineral rights, contiguous with the Company's Pegasus Target.
Expands Existing (~1,800 acres) Surface Rights Coverage at Leviathan – The Company's current surface mining rights cover approximately 1,800 acres across the full extent of the Leviathan copper discovery. If exercised, total surface rights would increase to approximately 3,273 acres, with the broader mineral land position exceeding 100,000 acres.

Hercules Metals Outlines Initial 2026 Drill Plan at the Hercules Property in Western Idaho

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 07:00:00 -0400

Phase I Drill Plan – An initial 12,500 m first phase of drilling has commenced at the Hercules Property, testing five new target areas shown in Figure 2, all of which lie along trend from the Leviathan copper system. Upon completion of this phase and evaluation of results, the Company anticipates expanding to a total of 20,000 to 30,000 m.
Second Drill Rig Mobilized Ahead of Schedule – A second drill rig has been mobilized to resume drilling at hole HER-25-18, previously paused at 841 m depth. Observations of potassic alteration at depth suggest the potential for a broader Footwall Zone than previously

Supply Chain Safety: Western Powers Race for Domestic Mineral Sovereignty

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- USANewsGroup.com News Commentary – Think of the global supply chain as a game of musical chairs where the music just stopped. Western governments are currently mobilizing massive capital to fix a decade of neglect, especially after China’s 2025 export freeze on defense-essential metals like tungsten and tellurium[1]. This isn't just about pricing; it's about national security. For the undervalued players in this space, the 30% copper supply shortfall projected for 2035[1] represents a pivotal moment.
