Anteros Advances Critical Mineral Targeting with AI-Assisted 3D Modelling
at their Havens Steady VMS Property, Newfoundland
ST. JOHN’S, Newfoundland and Labrador, March 12, 2025 – Anteros Metals Inc. (“Anteros” or the
“Company”) (CSE:ANT) is excited to announce integration of advanced AI-assisted geochemical and
lithological analysis into the 3D modelling of its Havens Steady Critical Mineral VMS Property (the
“Property”), located near Buchans, Newfoundland. This innovative approach detects geochemical
anomalies through AI-assisted K-means clustering, while enhancing deposit understanding by
correlating mineralization with documented lithological units and alteration attributes. With additional
modelling incorporating surficial data expected by the end of March, Anteros is poised to further refine
and optimize its 2025 exploration program to prioritize high-potential drill targets.
AI-ASSISTED MODELLING HIGHLIGHTS
• Advanced Targeting – AI-assisted K-means clustering, geochemical anomaly detection, and
lithological classification enhance drill targeting by identifying key mineralization trends
• Data Optimization – Automated AI algorithms systematically process and integrate geochemical
and lithological datasets, improving interpretation efficiency while reducing human bias
• Comparative Analysis – AI benchmarks Property geochemical and lithological data against
established VMS deposit models, supporting data-driven exploration decisions
• Cost Efficiency – AI-assisted analysis optimizes target prioritization, streamlining exploration
workflows and improving efficiencies of field programs
PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS
• Situated in a region renowned for significant Kuroko-type VMS deposits, known for their rich
polymetallic characteristics and significant economic yields
• Geologically consistent mineral deposit with a 1,000-meter strike length of Pb-Zn-Ag (±Cu-Au)
mineralization
• Road accessible and proximal to past-producing VMS mine-sites and infrastructure
• Approximately 8,150 metres of historical drilling since 1986
• Fully permitted for exploration diamond drilling from the Mineral Lands Division of
Newfoundland and Labrador

ABOUT THE PROPERTY
The Property hosts a road-accessible Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (“VMS”) lead-zinc-silver ±copper-
gold deposit located within the Central Mobile Belt of the Dunnage Zone, an established mining district
in south-central Newfoundland, that is close to hydroelectric power (Figure 1). The region is underlain
by sequences of Cambrian to Silurian volcanic and sedimentary rocks and related intrusive rocks.
The Property borders the Victoria Lake Supergroup, a complex assortment of several distinct volcanic
sequences, some of which host world class VMS deposits. Notably, the past-producing Duck Pond VMS
Mine, which had reserves of 4.078 million tonnes grading 3.29% Cu, 5.68% Zn, 59.3g/t Ag and 0.86g/t
Au as well as additional inferred and measured 1.073 million tonnes of 3.04% Cu, 7.05% Zn, 71.2g/t Ag
and 0.8g/t Au prior to mining in 2006 (Canadian Mining Journal, Aug 1, 2006). The Company cautions
that mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of
mineralization that may be hosted on the Property.

Since acquiring the Property in January 2024, Anteros has performed comprehensive digital
compilation of historical exploration data. Compilation confirmed that previous geophysical work,
including airborne electromagnetics, identified multiple conductive anomalies consistent with the
presence of sulfide mineralization. Additionally, historic drill programs have outlined multiple zones of
high-grade lead, zinc, silver, and copper mineralization demonstrated by the presence of sphalerite and
galena with bornite and chalcopyrite in copper-rich zones. The known deposit area has a strike length
of at least 1,000 metres and historic drilling shows mineralization extending to over 800 metres below
surface. For more information on the Property, please visit Projects – Havens Steady on the Company
