Azincourt Energy Advances Drill Program at
Snegamook Uranium Deposit and Greater
Harrier Uranium Project
The 2,000 m diamond drill program is designed to confirm and expand the Snegamook Uranium
Deposit, where historical drilling intersected multiple broad zones of mineralization, including
0.974% U
O
over 0.5 m.
Preparing an updated NI 43-101 compliant resource for the Snegamook deposit will be a priority
for Azincourt.
The Harrier Project hosts over a dozen uranium mineralized zones, including surface samples
returning up to 7.48% U
O
, and >1% U
O
in ten separate areas - demonstrating robust grade
potential across the property.
With only 124 historical drill holes completed across a 49,400 ha land package, the project
remains significantly underexplored.
Azincourt's 2025 field program validated past drill sites and identified two new uranium showings
at Boiteau Lake and east of Anomaly 7, providing additional high-priority drill targets.
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - November 19, 2025) -
AZINCOURT ENERGY
CORP.
(TSXV: AAZ) (OTCQB: AZURF)
("
Azincourt
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce that
planning is underway for a diamond drilling program at the highly prospective Harrier Project in the
Central Mineral Belt in Newfoundland & Labrador, Canada, that includes the Snegamook uranium
deposit.
About the Harrier Project
Azincourt's Harrier Project covers 49,400 hectares over five distinct licence groups, representing one of
the largest land positions in the Central Mineral Belt. The Harrier Project covers the Snegamook
Uranium Deposit and straddles key uranium-bearing structural corridors directly adjacent to and on trend
with Atha Energy's Moran Lake (9.6 Mlbs U
O
and 11.8 Mlbs V
O
) and Anna Lake (4.9 Mlbs U
O
)
deposits, and Paladin Energy's Michelin deposit (127.7 million lbs U
O
) - placing Azincourt at the center
of a proven and growing uranium camp.
The Harrier Project, with over a dozen known uranium mineralization zones and surface rock samples
grading up to 7.48% U
O
(and >1.0% U
O
in 10 distinct zones), offers a rare combination of grade,
scale, and geological continuity. Notably, only 124 drill holes (19,851 metres total, over half of this on the
former Snegamook project area) have ever been completed across the combined property - leaving
ample opportunity for new discovery with modern methods.
2025 Summer Work Program
The introductory work program was completed in late August (News release dated Oct 1, 2025)
consisting of helicopter supported reconnaissance of existing identified uranium occurrences and
prospecting of previously identified radiometric anomalies. Eleven previously identified uranium
showings and the Snegamook Deposit were visited by Azincourt's VP Exploration to get an
understanding of the characteristic and settings of the uranium mineralization present on the property.
Two new uranium showings were identified in outcrop in the Boiteau Lake area and in boulders and
outcrop east of the Anomaly 7 area.
Assay sample results are still pending for these areas.
In the Snegamook Deposit area, the location of the drill core from the 2007-2008 exploration programs
was confirmed at the old camp site used by Silver Spruce Resources.
Much of the core is in decent
shape considering it has been exposed to the elements for almost 20 years.
Several drill holes that
intersected the Snegamook Deposit mineralization and Snegamook Southeast
showing were examined
and a few samples were collected to confirm uranium grades.
Reconnaissance of the deposit area was
undertaken to examine ground conditions for future drilling and examine the old drill pads for
confirmation of hole numbers, locations, and hole orientation.
Many drill pads were easily recognizable
and marked with casings. Metal tagged wooden posts were present at many sites allowing easy
confirmation of the hole numbers.
2026 Diamond Drilling Program
The diamond drilling program currently being planned will consist of approximately 2,000 m of drilling in
6-10 drill holes.
It is anticipated that the program will commence once the snow melts and lakes are ice
free. The majority of the drilling will be conducted on the Snegamook Deposit; however, a number of
holes will target the Boiteau Lake area in preparation for a larger program to follow (see Figure 2 for
location within the Harrier Project).
Snegamook Deposit
A high priority target for diamond drilling is the Snegamook Uranium Deposit, where drilling in 2007 and
2008 to follow up a radon gas anomaly identified uranium mineralization located 1.3 km along strike to
the southeast of the Two Time Zone (Indicated and Inferred resource of 5.55 Mlb U
3
O
8
, Silver Spruce
Resources, June 2008).
17 drill holes intersected a 20 to 50 m wide section of uranium bearing
brecciated and altered monzodiorite with moderate to strong chlorite, hematite and carbonate alteration,
the same geological setting as the Two Time Zone. (Figures 3 and 4)
A review of existing sample data for the Snegamook Deposit was completed. Of note is that the best
grade is encountered in hole SN-08-06, at 0.974% U
3
O
8
/ 0.5 m and the deposit is still open to the
southeast of this hole towards the Snegamook Southeast showing.
In 2008, a preliminary resource estimate for the Snegamook Zone was prepared by Silver Spruce
Resources, however it was never finalized in a report or filed.
Work to be conducted as part of the
preliminary 2026 drill program will include:
Rehabilitate and examine drill core from the Snegamook Deposit at the Kanairiktok core storage.
Engage an independent QP to examine the available core and consult on additional drilling at the
deposit as part of preparing a maiden resource estimate.
Twin key drill holes at the deposit to confirm historical mineralization.
Conduct additional drilling to expand the size of the existing deposit.
Diamond drilling and preparing an updated NI 43-101 compliant resource for this deposit will be a
priority for Azincourt.
"We are excited to commence drilling in Labrador.
There is no shortage of drill ready targets located on
the Harrier Project," commented Trevor Perkins, Azincourt Energy's VP of Exploration.
"Our priority is to
confirm the historical results and begin an expansion of the Snegamook Deposit in preparation for a
preliminary resource estimate for the deposit.
At the same time, we want to advance other targets on the
property to unlock the value this property contains," continued Mr. Perkins.

About the Central Mineral Belt
Labrador's Central Mineral Belt ("CMB") is one of Canada's most underexplored yet highly prospective
uranium regions. Known for its numerous uranium and base metal deposits and showings, the CMB has
seen renewed interest due to growing global demand for secure, domestic uranium supply as countries
aim to increase nuclear power capacity to meet net-zero emissions goals.
The CMB hosts multiple large-scale uranium discoveries, including Paladin Energy's Michelin Uranium
Project (127.7 million lbs U
O
), the Moran Lake C Deposit (historical resource of 9.6 Mlbs U
O
and
11.8 Mlbs V
O
), and the Anna Lake Deposit (historical resource of 4.9 Mlbs U
O
). These known
resources demonstrate the Belt's exceptional uranium endowment - but vast areas remain
underexplored, with modern techniques only recently being applied across the region.
With its stable jurisdiction, historical high-grade discoveries, and modern exploration momentum, the
CMB is emerging as one of North America's most exciting uranium exploration corridors.
