Transition Metals Commences 2026 Exploration Program at Pike Warden Epithermal Gold-Silver and Porphyry Copper Project, Yukon

(TSXV: XTM) Transition Metals Corp. announces the resumption of field activities at its Pike Warden Project, a district-scale epithermal gold-silver and porphyry copper property located in southern Yukon. The Project covers approximately 41 square kilometres and is situated along the northern margin of the Bennett Lake Caldera Complex, one of Canada's largest collapsed volcanic centres. Previous sampling at the Saddles epithermal Au-Ag system targets returned values including 44.5 g/t Au, 491 g/t Ag, 59.6% Pb, 0.61% Cu, 0.35% Zn, and 59.66 ppm Mo. Exploration activities to date have included the collection of 2,380 rock and soil samples and the discovery of 33 polymetallic showings, with standout assays such as 48.1 g/t Au, 11,270 g/t Ag, 7.49% Cu, and 2.37% Mo. In October 2025, Transition completed two diamond drill holes at Copper Junction totaling 504 m, though no significant mineralization was encountered. Maiden drilling at the ERT Zone in 2022 returned percussion samples with highest values up to 468 g/t Ag, 0.19 g/t Au, 163.5 ppm Cu, and 1,150 ppm Zn over 1.5 metres. The company plans to refine drill targets for a planned RC program and follow up with petrographic analysis and additional core sampling activities.
