VANCOUVER, BC , Aug. 26, 2026 /CNW/ -- Vizsla Copper Corp. (TSXV: VCU) (OTCQB: VCUFF) (FRANKFURT: 97E0) (" Vizsla Copper " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce initial drill results from its recently completed summer 2026 drill program at the Woodjam Project located in central British Columbia.

Copper mineralization intersected in drill hole DH26-136 at the Deerhorn deposit represents, to the Company's knowledge based on its review of historical and current drilling records, the longest high-grade copper intersection drilled to date at the Woodjam project.

HIGHLIGHTS

Drill hole DH26-136 evaluated the eastern portion of the Deerhorn deposit and intersected two main intervals of strong porphyry-related mineralization:

A lower interval of significant high-grade copper mineralization: 266.0 meters of 0.97% Cu, 0.06 g/t Au, and 4.29 g/t Ag from 306.0 meters down hole, including

107.7 meters of 2.01% Cu, 0.13 g/t Au, and 8.61 g/t Ag from 320.5 meters down hole, including

48.5 meters of 3.32% Cu, 0.23 g/t Au, and 16.59 g/t Ag from 320.5 meters down hole.

A near-surface, broad interval of copper-gold mineralization: 129.9 meters of 0.30% Cu, 0.21 g/t Au, and 0.94 g/t Ag from 70.1 meters down hole, including

50.0 meters of 0.46% Cu, 0.40 g/t Au, and 1.43 g/t Ag from 150.0 meters down hole.

Follow-up drill planning underway: A program of core-relogging and subsequent 3D modeling of all historical drill core from the eastern Deerhorn area will commence once all pending assays are returned. This focused geological and structural model will inform follow-up drilling aimed at evaluating the potential extent and continuity of this emerging zone of high-grade copper mineralization.

Drilling at the Poplar and Palmer projects is ongoing: Two drill rigs are currently operating at each
