Star Metro - CORRECTION: PJX Resource's Sheeted Veins with Gold up to 28 g/t in a Possible Reduced Intrusion Related Gold System (RIRGS) in the Sullivan Mining District

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / February 26, 2026 / The Gar target on PJX Resources Inc.'s ("PJX") Zinger Property has visible gold associated with sheeted and structurally controlled quartz veins in the mid-Cretaceous age granodiorite to granitic intrusion (Photo A). Previously announced grab samples of the sheeted veins returned gold values ranging from anomalous to 28,841 ppb (28.84 g/t) gold. The coarse to medium grained equigranular intrusion has minimal sulphide mineralization and alteration. The Gar target (also called the "Gar intrusion") is one of over 10 highly prospective gold targets PJX owns in the Vulcan Gold Belt of the Sullivan Mining District in southeastern British Columbia (Figure 1)

Visible gold occurs as individual grains and with pyrite (Photos B and C). Geological mapping indicates that the large Gar intrusion has an elliptical shape approximately 1,600 × 1,000 m in dimension. Much of the intrusion remains concealed beneath overburden; however, the highest vein densities occur near the valley bottom (Figure 2), where structural intersections and enhanced permeability may have concentrated mineralizing fluids.

Historical soil sampling has defined a 1600 m long gold in soil anomaly over the Gar intrusion (Figure 3). The soil gold anomaly extends beyond the Gar intrusion contact, covering a sparsely exposed area of hornfelsed sedimentary rocks that likely cap the top of the intrusion. Therefore, the Gar intrusion may be larger in size than is shown on the map as it may connect at depth, under the sedimentary cap, with the small intrusion mapped to the north. Veining and mineralization are present in the hornfelsed and skarned sedimentary rocks around the intrusions. Historical soil sampling also outlines areas with anomalous bismuth and molybdenum (Figures 3 and 4).

John Keating, President of PJX Resources commented: "The style of gold mineralization in what appears to be a large Reduced Intrusion Related Gold System (RIRGS) may be analogous to Snowline Gold's Valley discovery in the Yukon and/or Kinross's Fort Knox gold deposit in Alaska."

The road accessible Gar gold target is part of the Vulcan Gold (VG) belt in the Sullivan Mining District. The VG belt is located at the intersection of two crustal scale structures, the Vulcan Tectonic Zone and the Rocky Mountain Trench (RMT) fault. The RMT fault is the southern extension of the Tintina fault in Alaska and the Yukon that is believed to play a role in the formation of the Fort Knox gold deposit and possibly Snowline's Valley deposit. PJX management believes that the intersection of these two crustal penetrating structures is the focal point for large mineralizing systems. One system localized the deposition of the world class Sullivan zinc-lead-silver deposit about 1.4 billion years ago, while a younger system introduced gold mineralization ranging from 120 to possibly 60 million years ago. Gold potential of the district is evident by placer gold occurring in multiple creek drainages for about 65 km. (Figure 1).

PJX has consolidated 100% of the mineral rights to the largest land package (750 km²) in the Sullivan Mining District and VG Belt. On February 20, 2026, PJX announced 3 large Sedex zinc-lead-silver targets (Estella Basin, Lewis Ridge, Grundy Creek) on the Dewdney Trail Property. These targets are each large enough to host a Sullivan Sedex type and size deposit and remain a priority for PJX.

The undrilled Gar target is one of more than 20 promising targets for gold, silver, copper, zinc, lead, cobalt, and other critical metals across PJX's 100% owned properties. We plan to share further details about these targets and may seek partners to help test them.

In Summary - Gar characteristics similar to Reduced Intrusion Related Gold Systems (RIRGS) such as Fort Knox or Snowlines Valley Discovery.
