Formation Metals Mobilizes to Site in Preparation for Near-Term Fully Funded 10,000 Metre Drill Program at the Advanced N2 Gold Project; Closes Final Tranche, Increasing Exploration Budget to ~$5.7M

Highlights:

  • Formation has planned a 20,000 metre multi-phase drill program at its flagship N2 Gold Project near Matagami, Quebec, host to a global historic resource of ~870,000 ounces comprised of 18 Mt grading 1.4 g/t Au (~809,000 oz Au) across four zones (A, East, RJ-East, and Central)2,3 and 243 Kt grading 7.82 g/t Au (~61,000 oz Au) across the RJ zone2,4.

  • Phase 1 has been expanded to a fully funded 10,000 metre program focusing on targets in the "A" zone, a shallow, highly continuous, low-variability historic gold deposit with ~522,900 ounces of which only ~35% of strike has been drilled (>3.1 km open), and the "RJ" zone, host to high-grade intercepts from historical drill holes as high as 51 g/t Au over 0.8 metres2, which was expanded by Agnico Eagle Mines in 2008 in the most recent drilling at the Property.

  • Formation anticipates commencing its drill program in August. Its technical team has mobilized to N2 to verify access roads and drill pad areas for accessibility prior to the commencement of drilling.

  • The Company has working capital of ~C$5.3M with zero debt, putting it in a very strong financial position to execute its exploration programs. Inclusive of provincial tax credits from the Quebec government, Formation's exploration budget for 2025-2026 is set at ~$5.7M.

  • Formation is now funded to complete the $5M work commitment required to earn-in to 100% of the N2 Gold Project within two years, four years ahead of schedule.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 7, 2025 / Formation Metals Inc. ("Formation" or the "Company") (CSE:FOMO)(FSE:VF1)(OTCQB:FOMTF), a North American mineral acquisition and exploration company, is pleased to announce that its technical team has mobilized to its N2 Gold Property ("N2" or the "Property"), located 25 km south of Matagami, Quebec, ahead of its fully funded maiden 10,000 metre drill program.

The Company anticipates commencing on the program shortly, with an initial 10,000 metres planned comprising Phase 1 as part of its planned 20,000 metre multi-phase drill program at N2, an advanced gold project with a global historic resource of ~870,000 ounces comprised of 18 Mt grading 1.4 g/t Au (~809,000 oz Au) across four zones (A, East, RJ-East, and Central)2,3 and 243 Kt grading 7.82 g/t Au (~61,000 oz Au) across the RJ zone2,4.

Deepak Varshney, CEO of Formation Metals, stated, "We are very grateful for the support Formation has received from new and past shareholders. With over five million in working capital, Formation is now positioned to commence on the most aggressive drill program our company has embarked on to date, with 10,000 metres fully funded for 2025."

Mr. Varshney continued: "We are very excited to commence our maiden drill program at N2. Based on our on-going review and planning for Phase 1, we feel comfortable in expanding our maiden drill program to a fully funded 10,000 metres.

Given the scale of the property, the compelling geological data, and the Abitibi Greenstone Belt's established history as a hotbed for gold mining, we are hopeful that the program will deliver our goal of delivering a near-surface multi-million-ounce deposit at N2.

We see the potential for a significant gold deposit at N2, and our maiden 10,000-metre drilling program will mark the beginning of Formation's pursuit of that goal. Our maiden program will focus on building on the successes of our predecessors. The drilling discoveries made by Agnico-Eagle and Cypress show the potential at N2. With gold at almost $3,400, over 4 times the price in 2008 when Agnico last drilled the project, we believe that the timing is perfect for N2 and look forward to a very busy upcoming field season."

Comprising 87 claims totaling ~4,400 ha within the Abitibi sub province of Northwestern Quebec, Formation's flagship N2 Gold Project is an advanced gold project with a global historic resource of 877,000 ounces: 18.2 Mt grading 1.48 g/t Au (~809,000 oz Au) across four zones (A, East, RJ-East, and Central)2,3 and 243 Kt grading 7.82 g/t Au (~61,000 oz Au) across the RJ zone2,4. There are six primary auriferous mineralized zones in total, each open for expansion along strike and at depth. Compilation and geophysical work by Balmoral Resources Ltd. (now Wallbridge Mining) from 2010 to 2018 generated numerous targets that have not yet been investigated with diamond drilling.

The drill program is designed to focus on discovery drilling at new high-potential targets along the mineralization strikes at the "A", "RJ" and "Central" zones in the northern part of the Property in order to discover new auriferous trends and unlock new zones of gold mineralization. The program will also focus on high-priority infilling and expansion targets in these zones to significantly enhance the auriferous zones identified to-date (Figure 1).

Historical highlights from the top two priority zones include:

  • A Zone: With a historical resource of ~522,900 gold ounces (10.7 Mt @ 1.52 g/t Au), the "A" Zone is a shallow, highly continuous, low-variability historic gold deposit with ~15,000 metres of drilling across 55 drillholes, 84% of which intercepted gold mineralization. The best historical intercept includes up to 1.7 g/t over 35 metres. ~1.65 km of strike has been drilled, with 3.1+ km of strike to be tested as part of the 20,000 metre program.

  • RJ Zone: With a historical resource of ~61,100 gold ounces (243 Kt @ 7.82 g/t Au), the "RJ" Zone is a high-grade target that was expanded upon in the last drill program in 2008 by Agnico-Eagle when gold was approximately ~$800/oz. Historically, 20,875 metres has been drilled over 82 drillholes, with best intercepts of 48 g/t over 0.5 metres and 16.5 g/t over 3.6 metres. ~900 metres of strike has been drilled, with 4.75+ km of strike to be tested as part of the 20,000 metre program.

The Company also believes that N2 has significant base metal potential, where it recently completed a revaluation process which revealed significant copper and zinc intercepts within historic drillholes known to have significant gold grades (>1 g/t Au). Assay results range from 200 to 4,750 ppm and 203 ppm to 6,700 ppm, for copper and zinc, respectively, indicating strong potential for elevated base metal (Cu-Zn) concentrations across the property, specifically at the A and RJ zones. Property wide geology at N2 features volcanic and sedimentary rocks formed in regional anticlinal and synclinal flexures. Three principal deformation structures (Figure 1), oriented along the known NW-SE to WNW-ESE structural trends typical of VMS deposits in the Matagami region, function as critical geologic controls for mineralization on the property.

For the 2025 exploration season, Formation plans to concentrate its efforts on the northern part of N2, targeting gold deposit expansion and discovery along identified zones and fault systems associated with the main deformation features (specifically WNW-ESE trend), with IP surveys and drilling planned to model mineralized zones that will hopefully contribute to an updated NI-43 101 compliant resource. Formation will also look to further review historic base metal assays from older drill core and undertake additional work in 2025 to assess the property's copper and zinc potential.

The Company is pleased to announce that it has closed its final tranche of its non-brokered private placement raising gross proceeds of $403,845.74 through the issuance of 928,381 charity flow-through units (the "CFT 4MH Unit") at $0.435 per CFT 4MH Unit (the "CFT 4MH Unit Offering").

Each CFT 4MH Unit consists of one Share (a "CFT 4MH Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a "CFT 4MH Warrant"), with each CFT 4MH Warrant exercisable to acquire one additional Share at an exercise price of $0.60 for a period of two (2) years from the closing date of the CFT 4MH Unit Offering. Each CFT 4MH Share qualifies as a "flow-through share" within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada).

No finder's fees were paid in connection with the CFT 4MH Unit Offering. All securities issued are subject to a statutory hold period of four months following the date of issuance in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of CFT 4MH Unit Offering for fieldwork at the Company's exploration projects.

Notes and References:

  1. Readers are cautioned that the geology of nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of the geology of the Property.

  2. The above referenced resource estimates do not have a category, are considered historical in nature, and are based on prior data prepared by a previous property owner, and do not conform to current CIM categories.

    While the Company considers the estimates to be reliable, a qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimates as current resources in accordance with current CIM categories and the Company is not treating the historical estimates as a current resource. A 0.5 g/t Au cut-off was used in the preparation of the historical estimates with a minimum 2.5 metre mining width.

    Significant data compilation, re-drilling, re-sampling and data verification may be required by a qualified person before the historical estimates can be classified as current resources. There can be no assurance that any of the historical mineral resources, in whole or in part, will ever become economically viable. In addition, mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. The Company is not aware of any more recent estimates prepared for the N2 Property.
