In This Article:

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - January 29, 2025) - XXIX Metal Corp‎. (TSXV: XXIX) (OTCQB: QCCUF) (FSE: 5LW0) ("XXIX" or the "Company") is pleased to present a review on an ambitious 2025 focused on advancing its projects and strengthening its position as one of Eastern Canada's largest copper explorers and developers.

"The broader market continues to undervalue resource and pre-development stage projects like Opemiska and Thierry, a reflection of the cyclical nature of our industry. At XXIX, we remain steadfast in our strategy to focus on overlooked and undervalued assets that we see as critical to the future of copper and metals supply chains. This philosophy, rooted in the Ore Group's values, emphasizes identifying opportunities others miss, building value with patience, managing capital conservatively, and acting decisively when the time is right. Looking ahead to 2025, we are excited to share our operational goals, including the methodical development of our two 100%-owned copper assets, Opemiska and Thierry," said Stephen Stewart, CEO of XXIX Corp.

Opemiska Project in Quebec
Saddle Zone: XXIX is set to launch a 3,400-meter drill program in the Saddle Zone at the Opemiska Copper Project in Quebec. The program is currently being permitted and is expected to commence in February. Results from this drilling will be incorporated into the forthcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).

Scoping Study and PEA: XXIX has effectively completed a comprehensive scoping study in 2024. This study optimized the mine plan and provided critical insights into maximizing shareholder value while fostering sustainable development for the surrounding communities. The insights gained will inform the PEA, which will detail a development plan aligning with both economic and community-focused goals.

Cooke and Robitaille Zones: XXIX has begun the reinterpretation of historical Falconbridge drilling and mine data, integrating them with modern geological data for Cooke and Robitaille. The Cooke Zone, historically a gold mine with a copper credit, has shown potential for a second mineralization horizon, which could enhance project economics. Permitting and design for drilling at Cooke are expected in Q2.

Opemiska has the potential to serve as the anchor asset in the revitalized district, offering long-term benefits for local communities, including Chapais, Chibougamau and the local First Nations.

Thierry Project in Ontario
K1 Deposit: XXIX has completed the revalidation and reinterpretation of geological data for the K1 deposit. A rigorous process included integrating historical drilling and incorporating 15 previously unmodelled holes, including seven drilled in 2024. Additionally, a core sampling program revealed over 820 meters of unsampled historical core with disseminated mineralization. XXIX has identified grade increases up to 77% in previously reported intersections when incorporating these zones.
