MITHRIL SILVER & GOLD EXTENDS 8 KM LONG HIGH-GRADE GOLD-SILVER

SYSTEM AT COPALQUIN; DRILLING RAMPS UP

- Expanded Channel Sampling and Mapping Continue to Highlight District-Scale

Property -

Melbourne, Australia and Vancouver, Canada - Mithril Silver and Gold Limited ("Mithril” or the

"Company") (TSXV: MSG) (ASX: MTH) is pleased to announce that it has defined an extensive

high-grade gold-silver system spanning 8 kilometres and 1,200 metres vertically, at its flagship

Copalquin Project in Mexico. Building on high -grade channel sampling and detailed mapping,

drilling is about to commence at the Target 5 area with Target 3 progressing for drilling late Q3

2025. New sampling has extended mineraliz ation at Target 2 by a further 1,000 metres,

highlighting the district’s significant discovery potential as multiple high-priority targets advance

in parallel.

Highlights

• Drilling to commence this month at Target 5 – following strong gold and silver channel

sample assays (further to results announced June 3, 2025)

• Target 3 drilling to commence late this quarter - high-grade gold and silver channel

sample results reported with excellent progress for drill readiness

• Target 2 mineralised trend extended by 1,000m WSW with new sampling results

• Santa Cruz historic multi -level mine sampled , confirming continuous mineralization

spanning 8 km across the district with 1,200 m vertical extent — assays pending. High-

grade soil sampling results reported for Target 4 (San Manuel Mine): first drill holes at

the Zaragosa Mine area planned for this month.

With drilling underway this month at Target 5 where we have abundant veining mapped and

sampled, the first drill holes planned for the central Zaragosa Mine area and at Target 3 end of

Q3 2025, we are entering an exciting phase of exploration at Cop alquin,” said John Skeet, MD

and CEO of Mithril Silver and Gold. “The scale of th is high-grade epithermal gold-silver system

continues to impress, with mineralisation now extending 8 kilometres across the district and

over 1,200 metres vertically, as demonstrated by our recent work at the Santa Cruz historic mine

at the eastern end of the middle trend . With multiple high -priority targets advancing in paralle l

and significant extensions identified at Target 2 , we are well -positioned to unlock the district’s

substantial potential.”

COPALQUIN GOLD-SILVER DISTRICT, DURANGO STATE, MEXICO

Figure 1 – Copalquin District location map, locations of mining and exploration activity and local infrastructure. Note: the

reserve/resources from company websites for the neighbouring properties does not necessarily apply to the Copalquin

Project. Resources/resources for neighbouring properties marked with * include estimated past production.

With 100 historic underground gold -silver mines and workings plus 198 surface workings/pits

throughout 70km 2 of mining concession area, Copalquin is an entire mining district with high -

grade exploration results and a maiden JORC resource. To date there are several target areas in

the district with one already hosting a high -grade gold-silver JORC mineral resource estimate

(MRE) at the Target 1 area (El Refugio -La Soledad)1 and a NI 43-101 Technical Report filed on

1 See ‘About Copalquin Gold Silver Project’ section for JORC MRE details and AuEq. calculation.

SEDAR+, supported by a conceptional underground mining study completed on the maiden

resource in early 2022 and metallurgical test work (see ASX Announcement 25 February 2022).

There is considerable strike and depth potential to increase the resource at El Refugio and at

other target areas across the district, plus the underlying geologic system that is responsible for

the widespread gold-silver mineralisation.

With the district-wide gold and silver occurrences and rapid exploration success, it is clear the

Copalquin District is developing into another significant gold -silver district like the many other

districts in this prolific Sierra Madre Gold-Silver Trend of Mexico.

drill target area of La Constancia-El Jabali (Target 3) and the new developing Target 5. Several new areas highlighted across the

district for follow-up work.

Copalquin District Exploration Progress Update

Surficial and underground channel sampling at Target 2, 3, 4 and 5 Areas have continued to

deliver excellent results, with several channel samples intersecting very high-grade silver and

high-grade gold within broad, outcropping vein systems (Figure 3).

Figure 3 Property-wide channel sampling results

Ongoing mapping at Target 5 — including the El Apomal, El Duraznito, Veta Azul, and Dulces

Nombres areas — continues to identify additional vein systems and underground workings,

significantly expanding the Target 5 area both along strike and across strike (Figure 4). Several of

the mapped veins display good continuity, with some traceable for over 600 metres. The vein

system is predominantly striking northwest -southeast with veins in the southwest of the target

area dipping to the southwest and veins in th e northeast dipping to the northeast ( Figure 4).

Target 5 veins mapped to date, are hosted in granodiorite and are situated at a lower elevation

in the system at 650 – 900 m compared with the mineralised zones at Target 1 (900 – 1,150 m)

and Target 2 (1,500 - 1,700 m).

Surface and underground channel sampling continues to return anomalous gold and silver

values, with numerous assay results still pending.

Complete sample results are presented in Table 1.

Significant gold and silver target 5 channel sampling highlights include:

0.6 m @ 1.17 g/t Au, 85 g/t Ag (814016; surface)

0.55 m @ 1.17 g/t Au, 34.1 g/t Ag (814033; surface)

An exploration road is advancing to the Target 5 area to provide access for drill pads.

Target 3, which includes the Jabali, Constancia, San Antonio, and Guadalupe mines, has

revealed a network of veins through ongoing mapping efforts (Figure 5) . While many of these

Page 6

veins exhibit limited continuity, they occur in various orientations, with a dominant northwest

strike over a cumulative strike length of 1km . Channel sampling from both surface and

underground workings has returned numerous high-grade gold and silver values, highlighting the

potential of the area. Notably, the Jabali mine hosts veins characterized by abundant amethyst,

suggesting a distinct mineralogical signature that may be useful for further vectoring.

Mapping and sampling will continue in the area to fully develop drill targeting.

Mina Lico, located just over one kilometre west-southwest of Las Brujas within Target 2, has

returned high -grade gold and silver values from limited sampling (Figure 1, Table 1) . These

results further support the potential for property-wide for high-grade mineralization and point to

the need for continued mapping and sampling in the Target 2 area.
