Sable Expands Cu-Au Footprint and Identifies

New Copper and Gold Targets Ahead of Maiden Drill Program

at the Zorro Project, San Juan, Argentina

VANCOUVER, CANADA – July 6, 2026 – Sable Resources Ltd. ("Sable" or the "Company") (TSXV: SAE

| OTCQB: SBLRF) is pleased to report the results of a soil geochemistry survey completed at its Zorro

Project in San Juan Province, Argentina.

Following up on initial results of geological mapping , structural analysis, systematic rock sampling,

and a recently reported IP survey (see press releases dated February 25, April 20, and June 29), the

Company has completed a 1,719 sample soil geochemistry program covering the central part of the

Zorro claims, including all of the previously described copper and gold+/-silver targets (Figure 1).

The soil survey revealed two contrasting yet spatially related mineralized domains within the Zorro

target: 1) a Cu-Ag (Au-Bi-W) domain that covers the western half of the soil survey area; and 2) a Au-

Ag-Zn (As-Pb) domain that covers the eastern half of the survey area. The soil geochemical results

confirm and significantly extend the footprint of the Zorro Copper and Zorro North targets, described

in previous press releases, and highlight a significant new gold anomaly, hereinafter known as Zorro

Gold (Figure 3).

Highlights

• The western portion of the Zorro intrusive complex , dominated by outcropping granite to

granodiorite, presents a geochemical signature represented by Cu -Ag-Bi-W (±Au) anomalism,

characteristic of intrusive-related mineral systems. Two important western area anomalies have

been defined:

o Zorro Copper confirmed by the new soil data. This rock chip + soil anomaly extends for some

800m by 500m (Figures 1 and 2); and

o Zorro North where soil geochemical data has significantly extended the footprint of this

target to include an area of > 2,000m by 1,000m (Figure 2). Significant parts of this anomaly

are covered by unconsolidated gravels.

• The eastern half of the intrusive complex, of contrasting dioritic composition, presents a

geochemical signature dominated by Au-Ag-As-Zn and Pb, apparently related to quartz veins and

veinlets with intrusive-related characteristics:

o The new Zorro Gold anomaly extends for 1,600m by 1,000m and encompasses the area where

previous rock sampling reported multiple plus -gram-per-tonne gold values, including

samples associated with quartz-sulfide veins and veinlets returning 7 g/t, 13.3 g/t, 34.7 g/t,

and 140 g/t Au (Figure 3).

• In addition to the above, t he magmatic hydrothermal Zorro Breccia zone (reported previously)

presents erratic Ag -Mo-Zn-As geochemical signature that may represent leakage from a

mineralized source at depth.

Upcoming Drill Program

Final preparations are underway for a diamond drill program in the second half of July. The objective

of this maiden drill campaign is to test the targets identified to date:

1 - Zorro Copper : Drilling will test the strike and depth continuity of the main Cu (Ag -Au)

mineralized structural corridors, which host chalcopyrite veins and veinlets.

2 - Zorro North: Drilling will evaluate the vertical continuity, geometry, and grade potential of the

potassic-altered granitic intrusive phase characterized by chalcopyrite mineralization contained

within miarolitic cavities.

3 - Zorro Breccia: Drilling will test for vertical metal zonation, following surface pathfinder element

anomalies within the breccia’s upper cupola toward potential higher grade mineralized zones at

depth.

4 - IP Anomaly: Drilling will investigate the source and geological significance of the newly identified

conductivity and chargeability anomaly.

5 - Zorro Gold: Drilling may be initiated pending the results of a recently initiated, expanded rock

sampling and mapping program on this important new target.

Dr. Ruben Padilla, President and CEO of Sable, commented,

“This update reflects the systematic approach that characterizes Sable’s exploration work. Since

recognizing the potential of the Zorro project area in December 2025, each stage of exploration has

contributed new information that continues to strengthen our confidence in the geological model and

the district -scale copper and gold potential of the project. The soil survey has confirmed and

expanded the footprint of known targets while identifying new areas of interest, including a

significant gold anomaly and a previously unrecognized copper target. Together with the recently

completed geophysical surveys, these results provide a strong framework for our maiden drill

program and reinforce s our belief that the Zorro Project hosts a large intrusive -related mineral

system with multiple mineralized centres.”

Discussion of Soil Sample Results

The soil geochemical results outline two contrasting but spatially related mineralized domains within

the Zorro Project: a Cu-Ag (Au-Bi-W), intrusive-centered domain in the west and an Au -Ag-Zn (As-

Pb) domain located to the east, along the margin of the intrusive complex.

In terms of copper, Zorro North highlights a large anomaly measuring approximately 1,100m by

900m, with a core of > 98th-percentile samples surrounded by a larger envelope of > 93rd-percentile

samples. A significant new find is a large Cu anomaly measuring approximately 1,200m by 500m

with a NW orientation (Figure 2), located directly east of Zorro North , which may represent an

extension of the same style of mineralization in previously unexplored areas. This new anomaly will

see immediate prospecting and sampling. Notably, s ignificant parts of the extended Zorro North

anomaly remain open as they are covered by Quaternary gravels (Figure 2).

The Zorro Copper target is also clearly reflected on the soil grid with an apparent footprint that is

smaller than the observed outcropping mineralization, but showing a possible extension over 600m

to the north as revealed by scattered high Cu values in soils interspersed with anomalous rock

samples.

Gold is highly anomalous in many rock samples from both Zorro Copper and Zorro North, and this

association is reflected by coincident, irregular Au-in-soil anomalies observed at these two targets.

However, a new, large, high-grade, and much more consistent gold-in-soil anomaly, Zorro Gold, has

been outlined to the southeast of Zorro North. Located on the eastern margin of the main magnetic

anomaly (Figures 1 and 3), the estimated size of the Zorro Gold anomaly is 1,600m by 1,000m. Zorro

Gold contains historic artisanal mines where Sable’s previously reported rock chip samples returned

values up to 140 g/t Au, and 259 g/t Ag (Figure 3). The discrete veins mined in the artisanal workings

also contain pyrite, sphalerite, galena, and arsenopyrite. Accordingly, both rock and the soil samples

from Zorro Gold returned strong anomalies of Au, Ag, and Zn with localized As, Pb, and minor Cu. The

size and consistency of the Zorro Gold soil anomaly suggest that more than a few discrete structures

may be present. Additional prospecting, mapping, and rock chip sampling are presently underway.

Based upon initial rock sampling results at Zorro Copper and Zorro North, significant silver is

associated with copper mineralization, and this observation is reflected in recent soil results. A very

strong >98th percentile Ag soil anomaly matches the know n mineralization at Zorro North, and a

smaller Ag anomaly coincides with Zorro Copper. In addition, a third anomalous Ag zone coincides

with the new Zorro gold anomaly and extends to the north in a more scattered fashion.

With respect to lead and zinc, these elements display very similar behavior, each forming an

anomalous zone around Zorro North and, in general, a possible peripheral halo around all of the

Zorro targets. Both elements accompany gold in the new Zorro Gold zone, and both extend farther

north, forming an elongated north -south trend approximately 2,200m long by at least 500m wide.

Most of this area remains unexplored to date and thus becomes a high-priority reconnaissance target.

Notably, additional strong Pb and Zn anomalies are noted over the Zorro Breccia target.

SAMPLE PREPARATION AND QA/QC

Sample preparation for projects in Argentina is carried out by ALS Minerals, at its facility located in

Mendoza with analyses carried out at their laboratory in Lima, Peru. Sample preparation includes

drying in an oven at a maximum temperature of 60°C, fi ne 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 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 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 with spectral data 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 ZORRO PROJECT

Sable has recently consolidated the 8,460 ha Zorro Project through the signing of option agreements

and the staking of open ground. The Zorro Project is located in the Frontal Cordillera of San Juan

province, directly north of Minsud/South32’s Chita Valley Project, which includes two copper and

polymetallic deposits: the Chinchillones deposit1 containing indicated resources of 188 Mt @ 0.41%

CuEq (0.25% Cu, 0.11 g/t Au, 10.6 g/t Ag, 36 ppm Mo, 0.16% Zn) and inferred resources of 573 Mt

@ 0.36% CuEq (0.22% Cu, 0.09 g/t Au, 9.0 g/t Ag, 93 ppm Mo, 0.11% Zn); and the Chita South

Porphyry Deposit1 containing indicated resources of 33.1 Mt @ 0.43% Cu and inferred resources of

8.6 Mt @ 0.40% Cu. Sable’s Don Julio Project, which includes four active porphyry targets (Gringa,

Morro, Punta Cana, and Tocota) is located 21 km west of the Zorro Project.

The potential of the Zorro Project was recognized through Sable’s regional target generation

program. The project contains a number of mineral occurrences with associated historical workings,

spatially surrounding a strong magnetic anomaly measuring some 7 km by 4 km, which appears to

be sourced to a diorite stock that intrudes Carboniferous sediments and Permo -Triassic granites

typical of the Argentine Frontal Cordillera in the San Juan region.
