PTX Metals Receives Additional Exploration Permit for Its 100% Owned W2 Cu-Ni-PGE-Au Project

Press Release

TORONTO, Dec. 02, 2024 — PTX Metals Inc. (CSE: PTX) (OTCQB: PANXF, Frankfurt: 9PX) (“PTX” or the “Company”), a mineral exploration Company focused on high-quality Cu-Ni-PGE-Au and gold projects in northern Ontario, is pleased to confirm the Company has received an additional exploration permit for the CA Zones located within the existing boundary of its W2 Cu-Ni-PGE-Au Property in northwestern Ontario (the “W2 Project”).

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Endurance Elements Inc., received an exploration permit, from Ontario’s Ministry of Mines covering approximately 2,650 hectares (26.5 km2) in the central area of the W2 Project that includes the CA Zones. The CA Zones were acquired by the Company earlier in the year, completing the consolidation of the W2 Project. The permit is dated November 29th, 2024, and will remain valid for three (3) years for greater than 20 drill pad locations.

Greg Ferron, President, and CEO of PTX Metals, stated: “Over the past several years, PTX successfully consolidated the project, issued a substantial exploration target and strengthened its technical team with direct experience in the region. An important focus has been working with local indigenous communities and Ontario’s Ministry of Mines (MINES) and we are committed to this as exploration activities continue and derisking a project we believe will bring significant economic benefits/opportunities to local communities.”

In September, the Company published and filed the W2 NI 43-101 Technical Report summarizing a near-surface Cu-Ni-PGE exploration target for the 100% owned W2 Project in Ontario (see www.sedarplus.com).

The exploration target model includes estimates in five mineralized zones including CA Zone 1, CA Zone 2, AP Main and two satellite zones AP North and AP East.

The exploration target outlines a 3D grade shell model based on historic and recent drill results indicating a near-surface exploration target between 59-135 million tonnes (“Mt”) averaging between 0.78% to 1.03% Copper Equivalent (“CuEq”), containing some 610,000 tonnes to 1,052,000 tonnes CuEq (using CuEq grades above 0.7% and 0.5%, respectively). This is equivalent to 1.3 billion to 2.3 billion pounds CuEq.

Using CuEq grades above 0.9%, the exploration targets estimation is 31 Mt at 1.25% CuEq.

The five zones have a combined strike length of approximately 7 km and are mostly near surface (<150m deep), but open at depth. All drillhole data was compiled into The GEOVIA GEMS database which consists of 98 drill holes totalling 16,841 metres completed by Inco, Aurora Platinum (2002-2023), and PTX Metals (2024).
