VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 26, 2026 /CNW/ -- Vizsla Copper Corp. (TSXV: VCU) (OTCQB: VCUFF) (FRANKFURT: 97E0) ("Vizsla Copper" or the "Company") is pleased to announce initial drill results from its recently completed summer 2026 drill program at the Woodjam Project located in central British Columbia.
Copper mineralization intersected in drill hole DH26-136 at the Deerhorn deposit represents, to the Company's knowledge based on its review of historical and current drilling records, the longest high-grade copper intersection drilled to date at the Woodjam project.

Priority exploration targets at Woodjam, including the Deerhorn deposit, are also shown. Mineralization at Mount Polley or other nearby or regional mineral projects is not necessarily indicative of mineralization at the Woodjam Project or the Redgold Project.

Section line for Figure 3 is shown. See references1,2 below for sources of historical drill data. Historical drill data shown in this figure were completed by prior operators and have not been independently verified by Vizsla Copper except as expressly stated. Vizsla Copper considers this historical information relevant for geological context and exploration planning purposes, but readers should not place undue reliance on historical information.

Box photos showing drill core from 318.0 meters to 345.3 meters down hole which includes a high-grade interval of 21.5 meters of 5.63% Cu (Table 1). Individual down hole copper assay results are annotated at the sample depths to illustrate the distribution of copper grades within the interval. The interval consists of chalcopyrite-quartz stockwork and breccias and semi-massive chalcopyrite, C. Quartz-chalcopyrite breccia at 325.7 meters downhole. Abbreviations: Cu = copper, qtz = quartz, cpy = chalcopyrite, k-spar = potassium feldspar. Photographs of drill core are provided for illustrative purposes only. Visual estimates of mineralization are inherently imprecise and may not accurately reflect true grade. Readers are cautioned that photographic representations of mineralization should not be relied upon as a substitute for analytical assay results and do not represent the average grade of any sample interval.
