SOQUEM Inc. has reported final results from its winter 2025-2026 exploration drilling program at the Wagosic project in Quebec, highlighted by an intersection of 263.20 metres grading 3.96% zinc equivalent at the Detour-Selbaie Zone.

The campaign, which ran from November 2025 to April 2026, involved more than 21,000 metres of drilling across the flagship property. Hole 1338-26-103B returned the standout interval within the Detour-Selbaie Zone, including a higher-grade core section of 105.00 metres at 7.03% zinc equivalent and a narrower sub-interval of 39.70 metres at 13.00% zinc equivalent.

Additional drilling at the Detour-Selbaie Zone produced other wide polymetallic intercepts, such as hole 1338-26-110C, which intersected 319.55 metres at 2.22% zinc equivalent, and hole 1338-26-093A, returning 275.60 metres at 2.59% zinc equivalent. These results extend the known mineralized system, which is now traced over a strike length exceeding one kilometre and a vertical extent of more than 700 metres. The system remains open laterally and at depth.

At the Silver 2 Zone, drilling intersected consistent silver-bearing mineralization hosted within a thick felsic tuff unit. Hole 1338-26-100 returned 54.80 metres at 184.2 grams per tonne silver equivalent, including a 4.60-metre interval grading 820.1 grams per tonne silver equivalent. This zone has been traced over 400 metres along strike and nearly 200 metres down-plunge, remaining open to the southwest.

SOQUEM is preparing an exploration program of approximately 15,000 metres for the winter of 2026-2027 to build on the completed drilling. The data will contribute to an initial mineral potential assessment for the Detour-Selbaie and Silver 2 zones scheduled for 2027.
