# EDM Receives High Gold Grades in Concentrate Assays

Halifax, Nova Scotia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 3, 2025) - EDM Resources Inc. (FSE: P3Z) ("EDM" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has received gold assays of 2.93 g/t and 142 g/t in its assay sweep of zinc and lead concentrates at the Scotia Mine.

**Highlights of the Gold Results**

-   Lead concentrate fire assay composite sample 142 g/t gold (with repeat assays of 157 g/t and 95.0 g/t gold)
-   Zinc concentrate fire assay composite sample 2.93 g/t gold (with repeat assays of 3.64 g/t and 1.46 g/t gold)
-   417,144 tonnes of zinc concentrate and 194,004 tonnes lead concentrate are expected to be produced over the Scotia Mine's life according to the 2021 Pre-Feasibility Study

"Recently we examined a limited amount of historical core from underneath the main zinc and lead carbonateous zone in the Meguma Terrane formation because we observed strong gold and silver grades in an independent laboratory assay report. The assays were from when Scotia Mine was last in operation in 2009. In conducting a detailed element assay sweep of some of the large concentrate piles in the Load Out Facility at the mill, we were excited to observe very high initial gold grades of 2.93 g/t and 142 g/t," _said Mark Haywood, President & CEO._ "With these very high gold grades, to complete our due diligence on the results, we instructed AGAT Laboratories carry out an additional multi-element and gold analyses which provided strong confirmation of the initial results. As a result of the positive confirmation assaying, the Company is planning to conduct additional assaying of the concentrates and a review the gold potential at the Scotia Mine _using professional geological services."_

The Company completed a 4.68kg composite sample (#232151) of a 2.9 cubic metre estimated lead concentrate pile and a 5.2kg composite sample (#232152) of a 19.5 cubic metre estimated zinc concentrate pile at the Scotia Mine. The concentrate was produced in approximately 2009 from mineralization extracted from the main pit and processed via the Scotia Mine's conventional crushing, grinding and flotation circuits. The composite samples were then processed at the AGAT Calgary laboratory, Alberta and at AGAT Thunder Bay, Ontario. Following the initial results, the Company instructed AGAT Laboratories to conduct an additional multi-element and gold analyses using the same protocols applied in the original sample, as well as create new splits of the archived sample reject material and then prepare and analyze a new pulp fraction.
