NEWS RELEASE
Excalibur Metals Introduces the Bellehelen Silver-Gold Property
in Walker Lane Trend of Nevada
September 18, 2025 (TSXV:EXCL)
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, Excalibur Metals Corp. (TSXV: EXCL) (“Excalibur” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce further details about the Bellehelen Silver-Gold Project (“Bellehelen”
or the “Pro ject”) located within the Walker Lane Tre nd of Nevada. Excalibur has signed a Definitive
Agreement with Silver Range Resources granting Excalibur an option to purchase 100% of the Bellehelen
Project.
“With a large, mineralized trend spanning over 7 kilometers, much of which remains untested, we believe
Bellehelen represents a priority exploration target for Excalibur ,” said John Gilbert, Excalibur CEO.
“Bellehelen is situated in a prolific district that hosts major producing precious metals mines and continues
to see major new discoveries. Combined with highly promising geology on site, we believe Bellehelen
offers excellent potential for a tier-one discovery.”
Bellehelen consists of a low -sulphidation epithermal silver -gold prospect located approximately 70
kilometres (“km”) east of Tonopah and consists of 90 Federal Lode Claims (see Figure 1 below). The
Project is located within the Walker Lane Trend of Nevada, an area known for its high -grade silver and
gold discoveries. Nearby major deposits include the Round Mountain Mine (Historic production ~15 Moz
gold, Proven and Probable Reserves of 1.88M ounces of gold 1), the Tonopah Silver District (historically
produced approximately 174M ounce of silver and 1.8M ounces of gold 2) and Anglogold Ashanti’s
advanced Arthur Gold Project (previously Silicon-Merlin) with an Inferred Mineral Resource of ~14 Moz
gold3.
Bellehelen History
The Bellehelen district has a rich history of production, with an estimated 311,000 ounces of silver
equivalent mined between the early 1900s and 1930s4. Numerous historic workings, including shafts and
adits, confirm the presence of mineralized systems across several zones on the Project. These past
operations provide valuable evidence of mineralization but have never been systematically tested with
modern exploration methods.
High-grade assays from historical surface samples have returned gold values of up to 11.25 g/t and silver
values of up to 3,490 g/t. In addition, extensive soil anomalies and vein systems within a large structural
corridor demonstrate the presence of both high-grade and bulk-tonnage mineralization styles, including a
gold-in-soil anomaly extending over 1,300 metres.
Upcoming programs will focus on detailed mapping, geochemical and geophysical surveys, trenching and
eventual drilling designed to test continuity, expand known zones, and potentially define new discoveries.
Further details about the Company’s 2025 Exploration Program will be released within the coming weeks.

Management cautions that production from, or discoveries on, adjacent properties may not necessarily be
indicative to the presence of mineralization at the Bellehelen Project.
