Hole ATXD19A Extends High-Grade B2B Breccia 180m to the South with Preliminary Assays of 0.99% CuEq over 70m; 940 Meters of Assays Remain Pending New, Near-Surface High-Grade Conduits Intersected, Including 10m of 2.34% CuEq Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 26, 2026) - ATEX Resources Inc. (TSX: ATX) (OTCQX: ATXRF) (" ATEX " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce additional drill results from the Valeriano Copper-Gold Project (" Valeriano " or the " Project ") in the Atacama region of Chile, including partial results from ATXD19A and full results from ATXD25D, ATXD26C and ATXD35. The Company is currently undertaking a staged shutdown of its Phase VI drill program. Phase VI drilling totaled a record of approximately 28,400 meters (" m "), exceeding the initial 25,000m program target.
Approximately 44% of assays have now been released with remaining assay results expected through July. Phase VI was designed to achieve two primary objectives: Expand and refine the high-grade B2B breccia located above the Valeriano high-grade porphyry system; and Test additional targets displaying geophysical signatures similar to those associated with the B2B Zone at the same elevation. Results received to date demonstrate significant success toward both objectives and continue to support the emergence of a broader and more continuous mineralized corridor surrounding the B2B breccia zone.
Highlights: Hole ATXD19A confirms that the high-grade B2B breccia mineralization extends an additional 180m, increasing the total strike length to approximately 600m and remains open to the south . Partial assays from hole ATXD19A returned 70m of 0.99% CuEq (0.64% Cu, 0.29 g/t Au) within a broader interval of 228m of 0.82% CuEq (0.54% Cu, 0.23 g/t Au). Silver and molybdenum assays for these intervals remain outstanding, with approximately 940m of additional assays from the remainder of the hole still pending.
ATXD19B, a parallel extensional drill hole, has advanced approximately 270m beyond
