High-grade silver,gold and critical metals mineralization identified across extensivevein network

August 26,2025 TheNewswire - NordPrecious Metals Mining Inc. (TSX-V: NTH | OTCQB: CCWOF | FRANKFURT:4T9B) ("Nord" or the "Company") announces thatRonacher McKenzie Geoscience (RMG), an independent firm ofgeoscientists contracted earlier thisyear , has completed its comprehensive review, utilizingLeapfrog software and advanced structural analysis techniques, of allexisting data. They have re-evaluated the structural information andprepared a geological model focusing on high-grade silver, gold andcritical metals mineralization at the Castle East location on theCastle Silver Mine property.

"The Company's latest technical update marks a significantmilestone in our ongoing exploration efforts," said Frank J.Basa, P.Eng., CEO of Nord Precious Metals. "From the initialdiscovery in 2011of the Robinson Zone boasting an intercept of 6,476 g/t Ag (189 oz/Ton) over 3.09meters to now identifying 29 veins in a comprehensivemodel, Nord has established a high-grade mineralized zone within 2kilometers of the last operating high-grade silver mine in the Cobaltarea. The identification of a stockwork vein system,rather than isolated veins, fundamentally changes our understanding ofthe potential scale for Nord’s Castle East property. Thissystematic approach validates our strategy of thorough dataintegration before drilling."

Data reviewed included over 75,000 metres of drill data includingorientation, mineralization, alteration, lithology, structure, groundand airborne geophysics, downhole EM data, as well as regional publicdata.

NextSteps

The Company plans to commence drilling this fall to follow up on thenewly modeled veins and proposed targets to further define andincrease confidence in the structural modeling, enabling advancementtoward an updated Resource Estimate. This program builds upon the 30,000-meter drill programstrategy outlined in an earlier news release.

KeyHighlights

  • Twenty-nine veinsidentified : Twenty-one veins modeled in Area A wheredata density is higher, while eight veins were modeled in Area B. Veinorientations vary, confirming a network of veins forming a localizedstockwork system. The study identifies the vein network as forming alocalized stockwork system, with veins ranging in orientation (N-S,E-W, and NW-SE). Grade shells were built using only grades greaterthan 50 grams per tonne. This represents a significantreinterpretation from the five veins previouslyidentified , progressing through the"potentially over 10 veins" noted in preliminarymodeling , to now 29 modeled veins throughcomprehensive 3D analysis.

  • Structural zonesidentified : Multiple fault bends and jogs discoveredthat create dilational zones favorable for high-grade mineralization,potentially explaining the exceptional gradesencountered.

  • Robustcriteria : Key data used for the modeling consisted oforiented core measurements, vein descriptions and classifications,vein distance between drillholes, and assay values.

  • Proposed targetsvalidated : Using the structural and vein modelingrecently completed, RMG has identified priority drill targets,including exploration of the underexplored lower contact of theNipissing Diabase, which represents 215 hectares ofprospective exploration on each contact , with veinsmodelled to extend 50-80 metres beyond last drill intercepts.

  • High-grade zonesconfirmed : The model validates previously reportedexceptional grades, positioning Castle East among the highest-gradesilver discoveries globally.

About Nord PreciousMetals Mining Inc.

Nord Precious Metals Mining Inc. operates the only permittedhigh-grade milling facility in the historic Cobalt Camp of Ontario,where the Company has established a unique position integratinghigh-grade silver discovery with strategic metals recovery operations.The Company's flagship Castle property encompasses 63 sq. km ofexploration ground and the past-producing Castle Mine, complemented bythe Castle East discovery where drilling has delineated 7.56 millionounces of silver in Inferredresources grading an average of 8,582 g/t Ag (250.2oz/ton) in 27,400 tonnes of material from two sections (1A and 1B) ofthe Castle East Robinson Zone, beginning at a vertical depth ofapproximately 400 meters. Note that mineral resources that are notmineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.Please refer to the Nord Precious Metals PressRelease May 27, 2020, for the resource estimate.

Nord's integrated processing strategy leverages the synergisticvalue of multiple metals. High-grade silver recovery supports theeconomics of extracting critical minerals including cobalt, nickel,and other battery metals, while the Company's proprietary Re-2Oxhydrometallurgical process enables production of technical-gradecobalt sulphate and nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) formulations. Thismulti-metal approach, combined with established infrastructureincluding TTL Laboratories and underground mine access, positions Nordto capitalize on both precious metals markets and the growing demandfor battery materials.

The Company maintains a strategic portfolio of battery metalsproperties in Northern Quebec through its 35% ownership in ConiagasBattery Metals Inc. (TSXV: COS) as well as the St. Denis-Sangsterlithium project comprising 260 square kilometers of prospective groundnear Cochrane, Ontario.
