 Black Mammoth Metals Corporation (TSXV: BMM,OTC:LQRCF) (OTC: LQRCF) ("Black Mammoth" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the results of a pole-dipole induced polarization (IP) survey with inversion model at the Company's 100% owned Antelope Gold property ("Antelope" or the "Property"). The Property is situated along the western flank of the Antelope Range, 79 kms N-NE from Ely in White Pine County, east-central Nevada. A network of gravel roads allows good access to several areas of the Property.

The Company has also staked 8 unpatented lode claims on lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Together with the 32 existing claims, Antelope now covers a total of approximately 321 hectares (795 acres).

IP Survey Results:
The IP survey has delineated a resistivity high and chargeability high anomaly in the Property's north zone associated with a range bounding structure which trends in a north-south direction and is crosscut by a second, northwest-striking, dike-filled structure (the "Dike Structure") which is coincident with historical gold mineralized drill holes and surface rock chip samples (see Figures 1 & 2). The Dike Structure with relatively shallow historical drill holes is also underlain by a chargeability high, which may represent a feeder zone (the "Target") for the extensive overlying silica cap (the "Cap") and historical gold mineralization.

Historical drill holes confirm significant at or near-surface gold mineralization along the Cap as well as within the underlying rock units of the Mississippian and Devonian periods. Drilling by Phelps Dodge (1988-89) yielded the best historical drill interval in (PTR-106) – 1.88 g/t gold over 12.19m starting at surface, including 3.41 g/t gold over 4.57m starting at 6.10m. PTR-106 is a historical vertical reverse circulation hole, located in the Target zone with approximate true thickness of 90-95% of drilled width and total depth of 76m.

Recent exploration work on the Property encountered extensive and widespread silicification, particularly to the east of the area of known gold mineralization, as well as at locations where intrusive dikes were exposed.

The Company continues to review the extensive historical Property data including the drilling assays and sections where significant historical gold mineralization was encountered. The gold system at Antelope remains open and requires further investigation. The Company is very encouraged to continue exploration at Antelope.

The 7 east-west IP lines and 4 north-south IP lines were situated in the north and central areas of the Property and spaced 100-600m apart.

Acquisition Terms:
There was a finder's fee of $12,000 USD paid to a private vendor in April 2025 in connection with the Antelope property initial claims staking. The Company owns Antelope 100% with no royalties, share compensation or work commitment amounts.

Black Mammoth continues to acquire non-core exploration interests in the western US, by purchase or staking.
