Visionary Metals Corp. has commenced diamond drilling and ground-based fixed-loop time-domain electromagnetic surveys at the King Solomon nickel and copper sulfide project in Fremont County, Wyoming.

The 2026 exploration campaign is being advanced under an exploration alliance with Teck American Incorporated. Under the alliance, established in July 2025, Teck committed an additional C$800,000 in direct funding and C$300,000 in technical services toward the current drill program alongside equity and non-dilutive direct support.

Initial drilling at King Solomon is testing the first two of three discrete, high-conductance features at the site of Wyoming's first nickel sulfide discovery. The property previously yielded initial 2022 drilling results returning 44 metres at 0.23% nickel in hole KS22-003. A total of 1,500 metres of diamond drilling has been permitted at the project.

The current diamond drilling push scales up from previous exploration efforts. The 2023 campaign completed over 3,000 metres of reverse circulation drilling at King Solomon, whereas the 2026 program employs diamond core drilling across a combined 4,500 metres permitted collectively at King Solomon and the Tin Cup project.

“Drilling is underway at King Solomon, and the expanded FLTEM survey is designed to search for additional conductors down plunge from the drill targets we are testing,” said Wes Adams, CEO of Visionary Metals. “An active geophysical program during drilling should provide a better understanding of the magmatic nickel sulfide system at King Solomon and potential extensions of mineralization at depth.”

Once work wraps up at King Solomon, Visionary plans to mobilize the rig 10 kilometres west to Tin Cup to conduct 3,000 metres of diamond drilling across five separate large conductive bodies associated with mafic and ultramafic rock.
