Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - August 5, 2025) - Ramp Metals Inc. (TSXV: RAMP) ("Ramp Metals" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received assay results from 10 of 20 holes drilled during its Rottenstone SW Spring 2025 program, confirming the discovery of a substantial copper-zinc VMS system at the Rush target.
- Rush-001: 1.21% Cu, 9.34% Zn, 5.59 g/t Ag over 3.53m
- Rush-002: 0.44% Cu, 3.44% Zn, 2.84 g/t Ag over 23.70m
- Rush-003: 0.76% Cu, 5.42% Zn, 4.47 g/t Ag over 1.5m
- Rush-009: 1.29% Cu, 12.38% Zn, 0.28% Pb, 7.47 g/t Ag over 2.55m
- Rush-010: 0.78% Cu, 1.91% Zn, 0.53% Pb, 12.71 g/t Ag over 27.00m
Key Highlights:
Ramp Metals is pleased to share key highlights from its ongoing exploration efforts at its flagship Rottenstone SW Saskatchewan property:
Rush: Assay results for Rush-001, Rush-002, Rush-003, Rush-004, Rush-009, and Rush-010 have been received. All drill holes received, excluding Rush-004 indicate substantial copper, zinc, and silver mineralization within multiple lenses (Table 1). The Rush-001 & Rush-010 drill collars were located approximately 165m apart. These results are interpreted as evidence of a new volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) similar to Foran Mining's McIlvenna Bay deposit in Saskatchewan. Expanded Rush drill results, based on a 0.1% Cu cutoff grade, are available in Table 2.
Geophysics: Initial airborne EM and Mag data for the remainder of the Rottenstone SW claim has been received, revealing multiple new high-priority targets with geophysical signatures similar to Rush, Ranger, and Rogue (Figure 4 & 5). The Company anticipates receiving the final airborne geophysical report in the coming weeks.
Field Program: An exploration program is planned that will investigate new and existing targets across the property through prospecting, BHEM, and ground geophysics. A wildfire is currently burning within the Rottenstone SW claim block (Figure 6), thus fieldwork is anticipated to begin when fire risk decreases later in the summer/fall season. Prospective areas exposed by the current wildfire will also be examined during this program.
"The copper-zinc VMS discovery at Rush marks an exciting breakthrough for Ramp Metals," stated Jordan Black, the Company's CEO. "These intercepts from Rush could be compared to those from the initial phases of Foran Mining's McIlvenna Bay deposit, which is also located in Saskatchewan. Rush hosts high-grade, near-surface mineralization alongside a large, untested anomaly, with results pointing to the potential for a significant and high-impact VMS system. With numerous additional geophysical targets identified and copper market fundamentals stronger than ever, we believe the timing couldn't be better to aggressively advance this discovery. Backed by a robust treasury of over $5 million dedicated to exploration, we are fully committed to unlocking a high-grade gold/copper system and driving the Rush target toward a substantial resource."

Rush
The Company has received assay results for Rush-001, Rush-002, Rush-003, Rush-004, Rush-009, and Rush-010. To date, all drill holes returned at the Rush target, excluding Rush-004, have encountered significant Cu-Zn-Ag mineralization within multiple lenses (Table 1), which the Company considers indicative of a new VMS discovery in Saskatchewan. Rush-001, Rush-002, Rush-003, and Rush-009 were drilled at the initial discovery zone (Figure 1), while Rush-010 tested the NE edge of the conductive anomaly where the rock samples during the October 2024 field program were taken (January 20, 2025 News Release). This mineralization encountered in Rush-010 represents a 165m step-out from the mineralization encountered in Rush-001, Rush-002, Rush-003 & Rush-009.
"We are extremely pleased with our new discovery at the Rush VMS target." commented Garrett Smith, Ramp Metals' VP of Exploration. "VMS deposits tend to form in clusters, and the recently completed geophysics highlight a number of additional targets. We look forward to expanding on this new discovery, and continuing to track down the high-grade gold encountered during last season."

The Rush target is a newly identified area of interest located approximately 7.5 km NW of Ranger. Rush overlies a NE-SW striking zone of high conductivity approximately 1200m in length. The area is heavily forested, and bedrock exposure is limited to sporadic ridges which parallel the NE-SW regional foliation. A total of 10 holes were drilled in the Spring 2025 program at Rush, and 56 rock samples were taken in Fall 2024. Disseminated Chalcopyrite and Malachite staining were noted in multiple rock samples. Rock samples returned values of up to 1.61% copper, 0.79 g/t gold, and up to 113 g/t silver across different samples. A total of 24 soil samples were also taken and returned values of up to 798.5 ppm copper and 21,152 ppb (21.15 g/t) silver (January 20, 2025 News Release).
Ranger
Ranger-002, Ranger-003, Ranger-004, and Ranger-005 did not yield significant gold intercepts with assay results reaching up to 0.104g/t Au over 1m. In addition to Ranger-001, drill holes Ranger-002, Ranger-003, and Ranger-004 returned intercepts between 2 and 10 metres in length, with weakly elevated concentrations of copper, zinc, and silver mineralization. While these values are low, they are consistently observed and contextually significant in relation to the sulphide content, the geophysical signature, and the previously identified gold from earlier drilling and field programs. The Company believes that it may be on the edge of a more robust system and intends to investigate further once assays from all Ranger drill holes are returned.
Assays remain pending for Ranger-006, Ranger-007, and Ranger-008. Ranger-008 tested an EM anomaly approximately 1.5km to the NE of Ranger-001.

Rogue
Three drill holes were completed at the Rogue target. Assays are currently pending for Rogue-004, Rogue-005, and Rogue-006. Drill hole locations at Rogue can be seen in the June 6, 2025 News Release.
Geophysics
The Company has completed Airborne geophysics using the Xcite HTDEM system across the entire Rottenstone SW property (April 14, 2025 News Release), which generated multiple new high-priority targets with geophysical signatures similar to Rush, Ranger, and Rogue. Initial Mag and EM geophysical results for the remainder of the Rottenstone SW property have become available as seen in Figure 4 and Figure 5.
Ground and BHEM geophysical surveys are scheduled at Rush to further delineate targets along the Rush anomaly. Dias Geophysical, based in Saskatoon, SK, has been contracted to conduct these surveys.

QA/QC and Geochemical Sampling Procedure
All drill core samples were logged, photographed, and bagged on-site. Control samples consisting of certified reference samples and blank samples were systematically inserted into the sample stream and analyzed as part of the Companies QA/QC protocol at a rate of 1:15 or better. All samples were transported by Manitoulin Transport to Bureau Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd.("BV"), an internationally recognized and ISO 17025:2017 accredited analytical services provider, at its Vancouver, British Columbia laboratory. The Company's QA/QC protocol is in addition to BV's QA/QC standard procedure.
Drill core samples were prepared using the PRP70-250 package, where samples were weighed, dried, and crushed to greater than 70% passing a 2mm sieve, then pulverized to greater than 85% passing 75 microns. Samples from Rush and Rogue were analyzed in accordance with BV's FA330 (Au,Pt,Pd) and MA300 packages, for both gold, platinum & palladium analysis by fire assay (30g fire assay with AAS finish) and multi-element ICP analysis (0.25 g, multi-acid and ICP-ES analysis). Samples from Ranger were analyzed in accordance with BV's FA330-Au and MA300 packages, for gold by fire assay (30g fire assay with AAS finish) and multi-element ICP analysis (0.25 g, multi-acid and ICP-ES analysis). Gold returning >10ppm is automatically analyzed by gravimetric method in accordance with lab standard of practice. Copper, zinc and lead over limits were re-assayed using BV's MA370 package, a multi-acid digestion with ICP-ES finish.
