Excalibur Metals Commences Property-Wide Exploration Program at Bellehelen

Excalibur Metals Corp. (TSXV: EXCL,OTC:EXCBF) (OTCQB: EXCBF) ("Excalibur" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that field crews have commenced the Company's previously announced exploration program (the "Program") at its Bellehelen Silver-Gold Project ("Bellehelen" or the "Project") in Nye County, Nevada.

The Program is focused on advancing priority targets and evaluating the broader mineralized corridor across Bellehelen. Initial work includes:

• A ground gravity survey now underway at the Rangefront Target ("Rangefront");
• Extensive geological and structural mapping across the multi-kilometre corridor between Rangefront and the Spyglass Ridge Target ("Spyglass Ridge"); and
• Systematic rock-chip sampling of prospective structures, alteration zones and historic workings throughout the corridor.

At Rangefront, located approximately eight kilometres northwest of Spyglass Ridge, previous soil sampling and CSAMT geophysics identified a large target that extends beneath shallow cover to the west. The gravity survey is intended to help the Company better define the geology and key structures beneath the cover and further refine targets for future drilling.

Field crews are also undertaking extensive mapping and rock-chip sampling across the largely underexplored area between Rangefront and Spyglass Ridge. This work is intended to identify prospective structures, alteration and mineralization that may connect or expand upon the Company's existing targets and to develop additional targets for follow-up exploration and potential drilling.

"This program represents an important step at Bellehelen, which remains a largely untested, district-scale mineralized system," commented John Gilbert, CEO of Excalibur. "We're building on our success at Spyglass while continuing to evaluate the broader potential of the Project. There are very few large precious-metal systems in Nevada that have seen such limited modern exploration, particularly those controlled by a junior exploration company. We believe the scale and upside potential at Bellehelen are considerable."

"The gravity survey will add another layer of information to our understanding of the concealed target at Rangefront, while extensive mapping and sampling between Rangefront and Spyglass Ridge will allow us to systematically evaluate a multi-kilometre area that has seen very limited previous exploration. Each phase of fieldwork continues to generate new priority targets and reinforce our view of Bellehelen's potential."

Results from the Program will be integrated with the Company's existing geological, geochemical, geophysical and drilling datasets to refine and prioritize targets across Bellehelen ahead of future drilling.

About Bellehelen

Bellehelen encompasses a district-scale, 10-kilometre-long mineralized trend that historically produced an estimated 311,000 silver-equivalent ounces in the early 1900s¹. Numerous historic workings are distributed along the entire length of this extensive corridor, highlighting a continuity of mineralization across multiple zones on the Property. Historical surface sampling returned high-grade assays of up to 11.25 g/t gold and 3,490 g/t silver¹, confirming the presence of a fertile precious metal system. Broad soil anomalies, extensive vein networks and the results of the Company's recent drilling and geophysical programs demonstrate the potential for both structurally controlled higher-grade mineralization and broader zones of disseminated mineralization.
