Sable Completes VTEM Geophysical Survey at th e
Copper Queen Project in British Columbia
VANCOUVER, CANADA – August 18, 2025 - Sable Resources Ltd. ("Sable" or the "Company")
(TSXV:SAE | OTCQB:SBLRF) is pleased to announce that the Company has completed a VTEMTM time-
domain geophysical survey at its Copper Queen project in British Columbia (“Copper Queen” or the
“Property”).
Highlights
• The survey consisted of 535 line-kilometres covering two of the main targets, Breccias 1-2-3 and
Roof, and additionally covered part the Breccia 4 target area (Figure 1).
• Results of the survey show conductive and magnetic feature s at depth, directly below Breccias
1, 2, and near Breccia 3. These features may indicate connection of the outcropping breccias to
concealed porphyry centres at depth (Figure 2).
• From the data, it is apparent that the copper bearing magmatic-hydrothermal breccias, mapped
on surface, represent magnetic lows at the margins of a large magnetic high feature.
• Additionally, two significant conductivity anomalies were found e ast of the Roof mineralized
zone, and between Roof and Breccias 1 -2-3. These two new conductive zones are located on
unexplored ground. A preliminary field review of these two anomalies is planned for late August.
Dr. Ruben Padilla, President and CEO of Sable commented:
“The results of the VTEM survey will be key for the ongoing exploration work at Copper Queen. The
geophysics support our initial idea of two different mineralization styles: outcropping Cu- bearing
magmatic hydrothermal breccias and a potential blind Cu porphyry connected to the breccias at
depth.”

Issuance of Options
The Company also announces that pursuant to the stock option plan, it has granted an aggregate of
10,000,000 options to purchase common shares of the Company exercisable at a price of $0. 07 per
share for a period of five years, to directors, officers and consultants of the Company.
SAMPLE PREPARATION AND QA/QC
Sample preparation for projects in British Columbia is carried out by ALS Minerals, at its facility
located in Kamloops with analyses carried out at their laboratory in Vancouver. Sample preparation
includes drying in an oven at a maximum temperature of 60°C, fine crushing of the sample to at least
70% passing less than 2 mm, sample splitting using a riffle splitter, and pulverizing a 250 g split to at
least 85% passing 75 microns (code PREP-31). The samples contained in this news release were
analyzed by methods Au-AA24 (Fire Assay Fusion and Atomic Absorption Spectrometry finish) and
ME-MS61 (Four Acid Digestion with Mass Spectrometry finish); the latter one includes 48 elements
(Al, Ag, As, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Fe, Ga, Ge, Hf, In, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nb, Ni, P, Pb,
Rb, Re, S, Sb, Sc, Se, Sn, Sr, Ta, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, W, Y, Zn, Zr). Both digestion methods dissolve most
-5-
minerals but not all elements are quantitatively extracted in some sample matrices. ALS additionally
collects a subsample from the coarse reject to be analyzed by Terraspec; spectral data is sent to
AISIRIS Australia to be processed and interpreted.
Control samples (standards, blanks, and duplicates) are inserted systematically, and their results
evaluated according to the Company protocols.

ABOUT THE COPPER QUEEN PROJECT
Copper Queen is located 225km west of Williams Lake in c entral western British
Columbia. Exploration work conducted by Anaconda American Brass (“Anaconda”) between 1968
and 1969 shows the existence of quartz feldspar porphyries and at least five mineralized breccias
within a porphyry system of approximately 4.5 x 2km. Anaconda reported drilling 182m in two holes
in 1969, however, Anaconda did not file detailed information about the drilling but reported grades
from 0.2 to 0.3% Cu in 6 to 25 met re intervals*. Rio Tinto drilled two holes totaling 119m on the
southern margin of McClinchy Lake following a chargeability anomaly where Cu mineralization was
observed but the results were not significant. Minor sampling visits were conducted in 1982 and
1994, and a 900km VLF -EM and radiometric survey was conducted by Seaborne Minerals in
2011. No exploration activity has been performed at Copper Queen since 2011 and no mapping since
the Anaconda times. Sable initially staked the property in May 2024 and recently extended the
property to 15,133 hectares.
* Historical Anaconda work on the Property is used only as a reference ; original Anaconda reports have not been
found.
