Miata intersects 35.25 m at 3.41 g/t Au incl. 5.55 m at 15.36 g/t, Sela Creek

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Miata Metals Corp. (TSXV: MMET) (FSE: 8NQ) (OTCQX: MMETF) (“Miata” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional drill results from its ongoing 25,000 m diamond drilling program at its Sela Creek Gold Project (“Sela Creek” or the “Project”) in Suriname.

Jons Trend continues to deliver long intercepts of high-grade gold highlighted by 35.25 m at 3.41 g/t Au in 26DDH-JT-023, including 5.55 m at 15.36 Au. JT-023 was drilled approximately 50 m from previously reported hole 26DDH-JT-19 that yielded 30 m at 4.06 g/t Au. Hole 26DDH-JT-022 returned a second broad interval of 37.99 m at 1.60 g/t Au, including 6.00 m at 3.99 g/t Au. All of the Jons Trend drill holes reported in this news release intersected multiple zones of mineralization, providing further evidence that the stacked, gold-bearing vein zones present at the target continue and remain open at depth and along strike.

Highlights:

Hole 26DDH-JT-023 extended the projection of a significant mineralized vein zone by approximately 50 m down-dip, intersecting: 35 m at 3.41 g/t Au from 97.75 m , including: 5.55 m at 15.36 g/t Au from 112.55 m

5.25 m at 3.40 g/t Au from 125.75 m

12.1 m at 1.66 g/t Au from 144.9 m

18.0 m at 0.82 g/t Au from 190.0 m

19.5 m at 0.82 g/t Au from 228.5 m

Additional mineralization in hole 26DDH-JT-023 includes 12.10 m at 1.66 g/t Au from 144.90 m, including 6.10 m at 2.54 g/t Au.

Hole 26DDH-JT-022 intersected: 37.99 m at 1.60 g/t Au from 158.28 m , including: 6.0 m at 3.99 g/t Au from 168.0 m

“Jons Trend continues to produce very encouraging intercepts, delivering a strong combination of width and grade, with a high-grade interval contained within more than 35 metres of continuous gold mineralization,” stated Dr. Jacob Verbaas, CEO of Miata. “All holes reported from Jons Trend in this news release i
