Arya Resources Reports Broad Sulphide-Bearing Iron Formation Intersected at Depth IN T-6 Zone at Wedge Lake
ARYA RESOURCES REPORTS BROAD SULPHIDE-BEARING IRON
FORMATION INTERSECTED AT DEPTH IN T-6 ZONE AT WEDGE LAKE
Highlights
• A broad sulphide-bearing iron formation was intersected at depth below the T-6 Zone
• 35.45 metres of sulphide-bearing iron formation and altered dacite intersected in AR26-16
• Increased sulphide intensity and alteration compared to previously documented intervals
• The deeper interval had not been discovered
Vancouver, British Columbia – March 2, 2026 – Arya Resources Ltd. (TSXV: RBZ) (“Arya” or the
“Company”) is pleased to provide an update on its winter 2026 drill program at the Wedge Lake
Gold Project in Saskatchewan’s La Ronge Gold Belt. Six holes encompassing 1,041 m were
completed at the Twin and T-6 Zones.
Rasool Mohammad, CEO of Arya Resources, stated: “Our objective with the 2026 program was
to better understand the geometry and continuity of the iron formation units at Wedge Lake.
Intersecting a broader and more intensely altered sulphide-bearing interval strengthens our
geological model and expands our understanding of the system. We look forward to reviewing
the assay results as they become available and will continue advancing the program in a
disciplined and systematic manner.”
Recent drilling in the T-6 Zone area intersected several quartz-vein intervals, followed by a
previously unknown, broad interval of sulphide-bearing iron formation at depth in drillhole AR26-
16, drilled as a 25 m step-out behind AR25-10, completed during the 2025 drill program.
AR26-16 intersected a series of quartz veins at depth, which likely represent the down-dip
extension of the veining intersected in the previous drillholes. This was followed by an
unexpected sulphide-bearing iron formation. This iron-formation interval had not been
intersected in previous drilling at the T-6 Zone. Visually, the sulphidized iron formation appears
similar to the iron-formation units intersected at the Twin Zone, located 1,000 m to the east, and
may suggest that the T-6 Zone sits stratigraphically above the Twin Zone. Additional drilling will
be required to fully understand the geology and the relationship between the T-6 and Twin
Zones. These results represent a significant opportunity for continued exploration in the area.

T-6 Zone Section
AR26-16 intersected multiple quartz veins.
• 1.23 m (99.76–100.99 m)
• 4.35 m (124.85–129.20 m)
• 5.32 m (172.98–178.30 m)
However, no visible gold was noted during logging.
Further down the hole, 35.45 m (178.30 m – 213.75 m) of sulphide-bearing iron formation and
altered dacite was intersected. The interval is characterized by disseminated-to-semi-massive
sulphides, strong silicification, sericite and chlorite alteration, and iron-formation host rocks. The
increased thickness and alteration intensity observed at depth indicate a strong development of
the sulphide iron-formation system in this portion of the T-6 Zone.

Twin Zone Drill Program Update
Drilling at the Twin Zone has extended targeted iron-formation horizons laterally and at depth
based on geological logging. Visual observations confirm continued quartz veining, sulphide
mineralization, and alteration within the system. This phase of drilling at the Twin Zone was
designed as a combination of confirmation and exploration drilling. Part of the program focused
on confirming the geometry and continuity of previously reported iron-formation–hosted
mineralization, while additional holes were designed to test for potential lateral and depth
extensions. The Company believes this phase of drilling has achieved its geological objectives.
The remaining drillholes are being logged and sampled. The Company expects to provide a
further update following completion of logging and receipt of assay results.
