Decade Discusses Update on Nobody Knows Property Exploration
Decade Discusses Update on Nobody Knows
Property Exploration
Stewart, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 12, 2026) - Decade Resources Ltd (TSXV: DEC)
("Decade" or the Company) is providing results of its exploration program on the Nobody Knows portion
of the Company's Copper River (Terrace) properties. The Copper River project consists of 59
contiguous minerals claims totaling 28,723.18 hectares formed by the Treasure Mountain, Dardanelle,
Nobody Knows (6,870.79 ha) and Excelsior claims. It is underlain by a complex boundary zone between
two prominent tectonic assemblages: the volcanic island-arc assemblage of the Stikinia Terrane in the
east and the intrusive rocks of the Coast Plutonic Complex (Cretaceous-Tertiary?) to the west.
Sampling in the 2024 field season led to the discovery of the high-grade gold-silver-base metal bearing
boulders associated with high arsenic, bismuth and cobalt values along a logging road in the SE portion
of the claim (1060251). These boulders ranged from pebble size to pieces up to 0.6 m in size located in
2 main areas 200m apart along spur logging roads.
Visible gold was noted in several cut rock samples
of this mineralization. The Company conducted geochemical surveys in 2025 in order to locate the
source.
E. Kruchkowski, P. Geo. President
of the Company states:
"Continued exploration in 2025 indicates
that the gold-silver-base metal rich rocks are composed of sulphides, quartz and muscovite. Thin
section studies indicate that the boulders are quartz-muscovite with arsenopyrite, pyrite and sphalerite
with lesser chalcopyrite and minor galena. In the examined samples no low or high temperature
minerals were detected indicating the alteration/mineralization observed in these samples can be
classified as mesothermal. Based on the analysis to date the discovered boulders are interpreted to
be similar to an intrusive related gold deposit mineral
type which are known to have enhanced
bismuth and cobalt. These types of deposit are characterized by their association with felsic igneous
rocks which are present on the property. The presence of these elements in these types of deposits
indicates a significant mineralization process that has enhanced value and potential. The Company is
excited about locating an area that appears to contain the source of these boulders."
The following claim map shows the location of the boulders relative to the claim holdings as well as the
location of a highly anomalous silt sample from the 2025 field program.

Note: The samples above were selective in nature and do not necessarily represent the metal content in the located source. The
Company feels that the consistent high metal content in a variety of boulders are highly encouraging and further investigation is
warranted.

The boulders show variable metal values with the highest silver correlating with the highest lead and
highest gold with generally lower base metal values and more quartz rich.
Sample JN-24-3 (0.3 m in size) which assayed 39.03 g/t Au, 169 g/t Ag and 1.22% Cu.

During the 2025 exploration program, a total of 422 soil, 35 silt and 125 rock samples were collected.
The silt sampling was successful in indicating anomalous values for the metals that were found in the
boulders. Sample TS-13 shown on the above map as a red square had the highest arsenic value (132
ppm) in the soil and silt sampling. It was 10 times higher than other samples for arsenic, 8 times higher in
copper (409.8 ppm), 10 times higher in cobalt (50.6 ppm), 8 times higher in silver (0.82 ppm), 2 times
higher in gold (56 ppb), 10 times higher in tellurium (0.35 ppm) and 2 times higher in lead (12.7 ppm)
and zinc (104 ppm). This sample is 200 m NW of the boulder site in a creek just below a logging road
that has a rock quarry on it. The values for the soil sample sites are being plotted to aid in further pin
pointing the source of these rocks.
2026 Exploration Plans
The Company plans to further define the source area for the high-grade gold-silver-base metal rich
boulders. In addition, sampling will include:
Close space silt sampling in the area of TS-13.
VLF EM over any indicated anomalous soil and silt sample areas.
Drilling the source area once located.
The Company has a drill permit in place on the project.

Analysis
All samples shown above were prepared at MSA Labs' preparation laboratory in Terrace, B.C., and
assayed at MSA Labs' geochemical laboratory in Langley, B.C. Gold was assayed using a fire assay
with atomic absorption (AA) spectrometry finish. Samples over 25 parts per million gold were fire
assayed with gravimetric finish. All samples were analyzed by four-acid digestion with multielement ICP-
MS, with silver and base metal overlimits being reanalyzed by emission spectrometry. MSA Labs' quality
system complies with the requirements for the international standards ISO 17025 and ISO 9001. MSA
Labs is independent of the company.
