Zeus North America Mining Corp. 2025 Drilling and Exploration
Planning at Cuddy Mountain, Idaho
Vancouver, British Columbia, March 11, 2025 – Zeus North America Mining Corp. (CSE:
ZEUS) (OTCQB: ZUUZF) (FRANKFURT: O92) (the “Company” or “Zeus”) announces the
Company has commenced drilling and exploration planning for the 2025 exploration and
development season at the Cuddy Mountain project in Idaho, less than 3 km to the north of the
Hercules Metals high grade copper-gold-silver porphyry discovery announced in October 2023.
Highlights of the 2024 Exploration Program at Cuddy Mountain:
• Staked 19 additional BLM Lode Claims to cover areas underlain by the Seven
Devils Volcanics, which host the neighboring Leviathan Porphyry Copper
mineralization.
• Completed a property wide 3D-DCIP Induced Polarization (“IP”) and Resistivity
Survey using Dias Geophysical Ltd.
• Conducted a property wide Ground Magnetic Survey totalling 105-line km
of high- resolution magnetic data.
• Collected 799 soil samples and 339 rock grab samples.
• Completed a property wide mapping campaign. The mapped stratigraphy within
the Cuddy Mountain Property demonstrates that the same stratigraphic section
exists with the Property as that shown-on Hercules drill sections which
intersected porphyry mineralization.
The Cuddy Mountain Property is adjacent to Hercules Metals Corp. (“Hercules”) recently
discovered Leviathan Copper Porphyry ($167M MC).* The discovery resulted in Major Mining
Company Barrick injecting $23M in equity in to Hercules and staking a substantial land position
in the district along with Major Mining Company Rio Tinto. The Cuddy Mountain Property
consists of 101 lode mining claims respectively and cover a cumulative area of approximately
2020 acres.

On February 20 th, 2025 Hercules summarized recent drilling at their Leviathan Copper
Property. The Highlights of which were as follows:
• HER-24-21 intersects 171m of 0.64% CuEq in volcanic host rock, within a broader
intercept of 354m of 0.47% CuEq ending in a late porphyry.
• Highest grades occur in volcanic host rocks.

• New mapping and sampling demonstrate the host rocks transition to iron- rich volcanics
and limestone in the Eastern Block and Southern Flats zones, conducive to significantly
higher-grades.

Furthermore, on March 4, 2025, Hercules showed their chargeability anomaly open to the
northeast towards the Zeus Cuddy Mountain Property.

Dean Besserer, President and CEO, stated, “Our 2024 exploration program data compilation
is nearly complete, and we are excited to release our results and advance towards drilling in
this highly prospective region. Hercules is planning an aggressive 2025 drill season and the
team at Zeus looks forward to following suit in the near future.”

The Property is in Washington County, Idaho just 2.5 hours Northwest of Boise and readily
accessible by road.
Historical Drilling at Cuddy Mountain consisted of 7 shallow drill holes in 1977 intersect ing
anomalous lead and silver. Drill hole Mun 8 contained 90 feet of 2.02 oz/t Ag (Taylor, 1977).
Further historical exploration on Zeus ’s Cuddy Mountain Project occurred at the Edna May
Mine: Mineralized vein with chip samples containing 750 ppm ppm Pb, 7.7% Zn and 252 grams
per tonne Silver over 4 feet. Underground drilling in 1979 intersected 1.38 oz/t Ag over 7 feet in
a breccia zone (Burmeister, 1980). Additional exploration (By Taylor, 1977) at the Rockslide area
encountered Malachite-stained outcrops with a grab sample containing 760 ppm Pb, 0.67 % Zn
and 36 grams per tonne Silver (Taylor, 1977).
