VR Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: VRR, FSE: 5VR; OTCBB: VRRCF), the "Company", or “VR”, is pleased to provide further details on the upcoming drill program planned for later this month at its Silverback copper-gold project in Northwestern Ontario.

• The drill program is targeting three high-priority areas identified through the recently completed 3D array DCIP chargeability survey completed in late November 2024, as illustrated in Figure 1.

From VR's CEO Justin Daley: “Our exploration at Silverback has steadily progressed from broad regional surveys and local prospecting to targeted drilling, all guided by modern mineral deposit modelling. Despite widespread thin glacial cover and few outcrops, we are happy to see important geological and structural features consistently characterized across our independent geophysical datasets. We plan to drill test these target areas for mineralization with a series of scout holes designed for optimal logistics and cost-effectiveness. To that end we are clearing access roads of snow and cutting drill trails and building pads in the high-priority areas for drilling later this month.

The remainder of this news release provides an illustration of the targets themselves. We want to highlight the broad array of data involved, and emphasize the shear scale of the mineral system across 2.5km. The integration of modern 3D DCIP technology with both historic and recent airborne EM and magnetic data, together with recent prospecting and drilling on the ground gives us a clear picture of where mineralization is concentrated. With the newly defined targets—centered on well-defined shear zone structures and supported by early drilling results—we are giving ourselves the best chance at identifying areas of remobilized copper and gold mineralization above and within an intrusion-related source.”

The 2024 DCIP SurveyThe survey delineated three near-surface IP anomalies that correlate with conductivity zones in a previous, and independent airborne frequency-domain EM and magnetic survey. Each target area shown in Figure 1 is focused on north-south trending shear zones, and more specifically, where these structures intersect the edges of nickel-chrome bearing mafic-ultramafic bodies and dykes. These mafic intrusions and their contacts are outlined by high magnetic response, are confirmed by prior drilling, and appear to predate the gold-mineralized porphyry intrusion and subsequent shearing. As such, they can provide crucial crustal pathways for hydrothermal fluids and act as chemical traps, making them ideal environments for hydrothermal copper-gold deposition.

Target Area 1 – Central Zone (CZ)

• The largest high-amplitude IP anomaly 1.2 km long is in the center of the project area and follows the north-south trending structural break. This structure is also associated with outcrops of sheared gabbro with high grade copper-gold mineralization (Photo 1A), and with the occurrence of molybdenite on fractures (Photo 2).
• The IP anomaly comes to surface along a parallel trend of shearing, approximately 300 meters east of the main showing in an area of glacial cover, as illustrated in Figure 1, Section A.
• The magnetic response of the east-west trending mafic body forms a trough across the IP anomaly, possibly due to demagnetization from hydrothermal alteration along the Central Zone structure (Figure 2).
• To the north, beyond the 1,200-meter-long IP anomaly, the Central Zone structure continues as near-surface DIGEM conductivity anomalies, potentially caused by clay alteration, as observed in Hole 2 from previous drilling.

Target Area 2 – North Arm (NA)

• Located northeast of the Central Zone, the North Arm target area consists of a 400 by 800-meter low-amplitude chargeability anomaly, along the western edge of a magnetic high, where the east-west trending mafic intrusion is offset more than 1 km by the North Arm shear zone.
• Intrusion-related quartz-carbonate veining with sulfide within the mafic intrusion (Photo 1C) that was discovered during the IP survey occurs where the IP anomaly comes to surface on Figure 1, Section B.
• The structure coincides with a 6-channel EM anomaly in an historic Ontario Geological Survey publication (OGS map M80524), and also with a shallow DIGEM conductor anomaly from the 2023 survey. The 6-channel EM anomaly reflects a subsurface conductive body with strong signals spanning from shallow, fast-decaying responses to deep, slower-decaying responses, indicating potential for a plunging, continuous conductor at the mafic intrusion contact.
• A parallel DIGEM conductor trend, located 200 meters west, may represent a secondary splay of the main structure, bounding the western margin of the “Y” shaped IP anomaly here.

Target Area 3 – West Dyke (WD)

• The West Dyke target is centred on the intersection of another north trending shear structure, which dislocates the subparallel West Dyke near Hole 2, and a west-northwest crustal structure and trend of IP anomalies (see Figure 1).
• The porphyry intrusion in Hole 2, roughly 450 metres south of the West Dyke IP anomaly, appears to have intruded along the eastern flank of the West Dyke, and is associated with a DIGEM conductor anomaly. That conductivity is coincident with and likely caused by the clay and sericite alteration observed alongside the disseminated sulfides and quartz-carbonate veining (Photo 1B) that coincides with a nearby small IP anomaly.

Figure 1. Plan map (lower) and sections (upper) of the recent 3D array DCIP survey at Silverback. The plan map shows IP isoshells at 12.5 mV/V (orange) and 15 mV/V (red) on a basemap with inferred shear-zones and margins of the nickel-mineralized mafic dykes and intrusions which span the entire property. The central and largest IP anomaly (CZ) correlates with the largest blowout of the mineralized mafic dyke, and the strongest shear-fabrics observed in outcrop; the integrated CZ target exceeds 1 km in strike length.

Rock Photos of MineralizationUpcoming drilling at Silverback will target the potential for high-grade remobilized shear zone mineralization within a deposit model for intrusion-related copper, gold and silver mineralization associated with widespread disseminated sulfides, quartz-carbonate veining (Photo 1) and sericite-chlorite alteration in an Archean porphyry intrusion, first seen in Hole 2 from spring 2024 reconnaissance drilling. The presence of molybdenite on fractures (Photo 2) reinforces an intrusive source for copper and gold mineralization at Silverback, yet also speaks to the temperature and intensity of fluid flow carrying these metals into shear-zone structures. Molybdenum, a critical pathfinder in the Hemlo gold camp, is typically found near the strongest gold mineralization, especially where overprinted by later sericite alteration and quartz-carbonate veining.

About the Silverback Project

The project now consists of 71 mineral claims in 1 contiguous block covering 4,442 hectares. The project is located on Federal crown land, with mineral rights administered by the Ontario Ministry of Mines. There is a 2% net smelter royalty on the claims. There are no annual payments, but the Ministry requires certain annual exploration expenditures and reporting (ie. mineral assessment reports) in order to maintain a mineral claim in good standing. The Properties falls within the Lac de Mille Lac First Nation traditional territories.

Figure 2. Zoomed-in view of the Central Zone IP chargeability anomaly shown in Figure 1, with a 15.5 mV/V response extending for over 1,200 meters north to south. The mafic intrusion is characterized by a high magnetic response (indicated by closely spaced 20 nT contours), which is strongest on either side of the Central Zone structure. The localized magnetic low within the anomaly may result from demagnetization caused by hydrothermal alteration along the structure

This presence of molybdenite is rare in a mafic intrusion setting and was one of the first clues towards an intrusion-related copper-gold deposit model as source for high-grade mineralization further north along the CZ structure.
