Northern Lights Reports Strong Multi-Element Anomalies at Horetzky Copper Project, British Columbia Results from the 2025 Field Work

(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, BC – June 2 2026 -TheNewswire – Northern Lights Resources Corp.(CSE: NLR) (OTC: NLRCF)(FSE: 0ZH0)(“Northern Lights” or the“Company”) is pleased to report results from its 2025 fieldexploration program at the Horetzky Copper Project (“Horetzky” orthe “Project”), located in the Babine porphyry belt of centralBritish Columbia. Sampling was designed to validate and infillanomalies identified in previous programs, expand the geochemicalfootprint into previously untested areas, and use multi-elementanalysis to refine exploration vectorsThe 2025 program successfullyidentified multiple coherent copper-gold-silver-molybdenum anomalies,confirming the presence of a large-scale porphyry-style mineralizedsystem and significantly advancing target definition across theproperty.

Highlights

• Rock samples returned up to 13,750 ppm Cu (1.38% Cu), with multiplesamples exceeding 1,000 ppm Cu 

• Gold values up to 1.18 g/t Au, and silver up to 40.5 g/t Ag 

• Soil samples returned up to 2,150 ppm Cu, defining strongmulti-element corridors 

• 218 soil samples and 103 rock samples collected across priority targetareas 

• Defined NE–SW and NW–SE trending mineralized corridors withcoincident Cu–Mo–Ag ± Au anomalies 

• Alteration and geochemical vectors indicate proximity to a porphyrycopper ± molybdenum system 

2025 Exploration Program Overview

Sampling of outcrop and soils was focussed on the area underlain byinterpreted strongly magnetic porphyry intrusive and proximate hostrocks.  In total, 218 soil samples and 103 rock samples werecollected for geochemical analysis at the ALS laboratory in Terrace, BC.

Soil samples were dried and screened to -180µm(ALS method SCR-41). Rock samples were crushed to 70% pass <2mm,pulverised to 85% passing 75 µm, and rifflesplit (ALS PREP-31A). Both soil and rock samples were dissolved usingstrong acid digestion, followed by 51 element ICP-MS (ME-MS41). Goldwas analysed using Fire Assay-Atomic Absorption (Au-AA24), High gradeelements were re-assayed, method Cu-OG46 for copper, and ME-OG46 forother elements.

2025 Exploration Results

The 2025 program focused on expanding and refining previouslyidentified targets through systematic soil and rock geochemicalsampling.

Rock sampling returned strong copper mineralization across multiplezones, with values ranging from background to >1% Cu, supported byelevated molybdenum, silver, and localized gold. These results areconcentrated in the central, eastern, and southern portions of theproperty, highlighting multiple mineralized centres.

Historical and 2025 rock samples compilation: colourscale bar Cu ppm, hatched area magnetic susceptibility>0.1574SI

Soil Sampling

Soil sampling outlined large, continuous multi-element anomalies, withcopper values up to 2,150 ppm and strong spatial correlation withmolybdenum and silver. The most significant anomalies occur within thesoutheast and southwest grids, where consistent elevated values definestructurally controlled corridors.

Geochemical vectoring tools, including porphyry index mapping andalteration indices, define a coherent hydrothermal footprint, withincreasing intensity toward the eastern and southeastern portions ofthe property.

Soil geochemistry compilation Cu ppm, hatchedarea>200ppm Cu

Elemental Correlation

Elements that occur correlated with copper can be used to refineexploration targets. Significant correlatives to Cu in soil samplinginclude only Cd and Se, which suggests the surface weathering has beenleached.

Significant correlatives for rocks include Au, Ag, Mo, and K, whichare important for exploration.

Geological Interpretation

• Results from the 2025 program confirm the presence of a multi-phasehydrothermal system consistent with porphyry style mineralization. 

•  Cu–Mo association suggests proximity to a porphyry centre 

• Broad Ag halo and localized Au enrichment indicate peripheralmineralization 

• Well-developed potassic–phyllic alteration zoning supports alarge-scale system 

• The mineralization remains open laterally and at depth, with multiplezones requiring further delineation. 

CEO Luka Capin commented“Geochemistry is an integral part of a multi-disciplinary integratedexploration model. Widespread and strong copper anomalism isencouraging, and indicates a fertile mineralized system at MtHoretzky, with good potential for a significant discovery. The 2025geochemical programme expanded the area of anomalous copper related toporphyry-style mineralization, with several factors in common withother known occurrences in the Babine Porphyry Belt such as the Nakproject being explored by American Eagle Gold”.

Surface geochemistry is an integral part of a multi-disciplineintegrated interpretation which demonstrates the fertility anddimensions of the Horetzky porphyry system. In combination withinterpretation of geophysics methods, this leads to refined targetsfor drill testing.

Main Findings of Surface geochemicalSampling

• Historical and recent geochemical sampling outlines widespread copperanomalism over an area of more than 8km 

• 218 soil samples and 103 rock samples were collected during the 2025field season, and 72 rock and 1083 soils were collected historically 

• The tenor of copper mineralization averages 219ppm Cu in soils and852ppm Cu rock samples 

• High grade samples of rock returned up to 13,750 ppm Cu (1.38% Cu),with multiple samples exceeding 1,000 ppm CuGold values up to 1.18 g/tAu, and silver up to 40.5 g/t Ag were reported many correlativeelements to copper in soils have been leached from surface samples. 

• Comparison of soil and rock analysis indicates surface leaching ofelements, but rock sample analyses show correlation of Au, Ag, Mo, andK with copper
