A.I.S. Resources Engages ICor Drilling Services for
Summer Drilling Program
Vancouver, B.C. —June 23, 2026—A.I.S. Resources Limited (TSXV: AIS, OTC-Pink:
AISSF, FRA: 5YH) (“A.I.S.” or the “Company) is pleased to announce that it has
formally engaged local drilling contractor ICor Drilling Services of Penobsquis, New
Brunswick, for a planned Phase 1 diamond drilling program on the Company’s New
Brunswick exploration properties.
The planned Phase 1 program is expected to comprise approximately 2,000 metres
of diamond drilling, designed to test priority exploration targets identified by the
Company through its geological compilation, airborne geophysical surveys, field
evaluation, and exploration targeting work. The Company’s exploration team is
currently in the field marking proposed drill collar locations, coordinating contractor
mobilization and logistics, and advancing applicable drill permit applications.
Subject to receipt of applicable permits, contractor mobilization, field logistics,
weather, access and other customary field considerations, A.I.S. anticipates
commencing its initial drill campaign between July 15 and August 1, 2026. The
Company will provide further timeline updates as permitting, mobilization and field
preparations progress.
"Engaging ICor Drilling Services marks an important milestone for A.I.S. as we
transition from target generation into drill testing across our New Brunswick
portfolio," said Marc Enright-Morin, CEO of A.I.S. "Our technical team has completed
extensive compilation, geophysical interpretation and field evaluation to prioritize
targets for this initial program. We believe this campaign will provide important
geological information to guide future exploration and help unlock the broader
potential of these early-stage projects.”
The Company cautions that the New Brunswick projects are at an early stage of
exploration. No mineral resource has been defined on the projects, and there has
been insufficient work completed by A.I.S. to verify the scale, continuity, grade, or
economic significance of the reported historical mineralization or exploration
targets.
Photographs of the project are included at the end of this news release.
Geological Setting and History:
Southern New Brunswick is a prospective mineral exploration jurisdiction with a long
history of mineral occurrences and past-producing deposits associated with
Appalachian volcanic, sedimentary, intrusive and structurally controlled geological
settings. The region hosts geological environments considered favourable for
copper, gold, silver, zinc, antimony, cobalt, nickel and other critical minerals.
Mineralization in the region may be associated with fault zones, volcanic and
sedimentary contacts, intrusive-related systems, skarn-style alteration, and
structurally controlled vein and breccia systems.

A.I.S. considers its New Brunswick property portfolio provides an opportunity to
evaluate multiple early-stage mineralized trends using modern exploration methods,
including geological mapping, geochemistry, airborne and ground geophysics, and
targeted drilling. The Company’s current work is designed to test exploration
concepts and priority targets; additional work is required before any conclusions can
be made regarding continuity, grade, scale or economic potential.
About the Saint John Project
The Saint John Project is considered by the Company to be prospective for IOCG-style
mineralization based on its regional geological setting and the Company’s current
exploration model. The property remains at an early stage of exploration, and further
work is required to determine whether IOCG-style mineralization is present. The
Company’s exploration model is designed to evaluate the potential for copper-gold-
silver- antimony mineralization with associated critical-mineral pathfinders reported
in historical or vendor compilation materials.
About the Pocologan Project
The Pocologan Project is an early-stage copper-gold-silver exploration project
located in New Brunswick, Canada. The project is interpreted by the Company to
have potential for IOCG-style, magmatic copper-gold and structurally controlled
copper-silver-gold exploration models. Vendor compilation materials and the
Company’s compiled data identify several target areas, including the Pennfield
Station-Pocologan River, Grand Bay and Red Head Harbour areas, where surface
prospecting reportedly outlined copper, gold and silver mineralization associated
with gabbroic, granodioritic, altered and sheared host rocks.
The project covers approximately 21.5 square kilometres in southern New Brunswick
and benefits from favourable infrastructure, including proximity to highways, rail,
power, deep-water port facilities at Saint John and a skilled regional workforce. The
Company has not yet completed sufficient work to verify the continuity, scale or
economic significance of the historical mineralization reported in vendor
compilation materials.
About the Frenchmans Creek Project:
The Frenchmans Creek Project is an early-stage, district-scale copper-gold-silver
exploration project focused on evaluating IOCG-style and structurally controlled
copper-silver-gold exploration targets. Vendor compilation materials and the
Company’s data identify several target areas where surface prospecting outlined
copper, gold and silver mineralization associated with gabbroic, granodioritic and
altered or sheared host rocks.
The project remains at an early exploration stage and requires systematic
verification, mapping, sampling, geophysical work and drilling before any
conclusions can be made regarding the presence, continuity, grade, scale or
economic potential of mineralization.
