Canada NewsWire

VANCOUVER, BC , Oct. 1, 2026 /CNW/ -- Vizsla Copper Corp. (TSXV: VCU) (OTCQB: VCUFF) (FRANKFURT: 97E0) ("Vizsla Copper" or the "Company") is pleased to announce additional assay results from its ongoing core drilling program at the Palmer copper-zinc VMS Project (the "Palmer Project" or "Palmer") in Southeast Alaska.

Drill hole CMR26-213 intersected high-grade silver and gold mineralization in the central portion of the AG deposit. The AG deposit is one of two deposits included in the current Palmer Project mineral resource estimate 1 .

The results include one of the highest-grade silver drill intersections reported at the Palmer Project to date: 6.1 meters grading 320.2 g/t silver, 2.48 g/t gold and 2.63% zinc . Individual samples within the intersection also returned some of the highest gold grades encountered at Palmer. The 2026 infill drill program at the AG deposit consisted of three drill holes, all of which are now complete; assays from CMR26-211 and CMR26-215 are pending.

HIGHLIGHTS

High-grade silver, gold and zinc in drill hole CMR26-213: 30.6 meters grading 6.53% ZnEq* (1.60% zinc, 0.05% copper, 96.6 g/t silver and 0.92 g/t gold) from 134.3 meters down hole, including

10.4 meters grading 15.23% ZnEq* (2.49% zinc, 0.06% copper, 255.3 g/t silver and 2.39 g/t gold) from 135.1 meters down hole, including

6.1 meters grading 17.69% ZnEq* (2.63% zinc, 0.06% copper, 320.2 g/t silver and 2.48 g/t gold) from 135.5 meters down hole

Additional assay results remain pending: Results from two additional AG drill holes, CMR26-211 and CMR26-215, both of which intersected visually identified barite-bearing sulphide mineralization, are expected in the coming weeks.

Further assays expected through the fall: Results from an additional 16 drill holes across the HG, AG, South Wall Zones 2 and 3 and Waterfall targets are expected from e
