Military Metals Drills 23.5 Meters of 3.3 g/t Gold Including 4.0 Meters of 10.52 g/t Gold and 1.9 Meters of 2.53% Antimony at Flagship Trojarova Project, Europe

Vancouver, British Columbia–(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com – February 4, 2026)Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the “Company” or “MILI”) is pleased to report the additional analytical results of the Company’s definition drilling campaign at the 100% owned flagship Trojárová Antimony-Gold Project (the “Project“) in Slovakia as announced on November 4, 2025. The 2025 drilling campaign was designed to confirm historical drilling results and to support SLR Consulting’s work towards establishing a current mineral resource estimate on the Project, which the company anticipates delivery of by the end of Q1, 2026, further discussed in the Company’s January 9, 2025 announcement.

These priority assay results represent the main mineralized zone from the third hole of the program, 25-TVA-003.

Highlights of the Results from hole 25-TVA-003 Include:

  • 23.5 drilled (m) of 3.3 g/t Gold over a true width of 20.2m from 148.9m to 172.4m

    • Including: 4.0m of 10.52 g/t Au over a true width of 3.4m from 157.9m to 161.9m

  • 1.9m of 2.53% Antimony over a true width of 1.6m from 169.9m to 171.8m

Scott Eldridge, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “We are thrilled with the second tranche of assays as we continue to see antimony grades that are consistent with historical results and higher than anticipated gold grades within the Trojárová Deposit. These strong gold results present the Company with new exploration opportunities that we are excited to evaluate. Trojárová represents the only antimony deposit in the European Union being advanced by modern mineral exploration and demonstrates characteristics that place it among the leading antimony projects globally. At a time when the need for secure, domestically sourced critical minerals is more pressing than ever, these results strengthen the project’s potential importance to, and alignment with, the EU’s objective of building a dependable, home-grown supply of essential raw materials.”

The Company additionally announces that logging and sampling of all drill core from the program is complete and all samples have successfully been delivered to ALS Laboratories in Roșia Montană, Romania for analysis. Additional results for all holes are pending.

Analytical and QA/QC Procedures

The program was completed using PQ and HQ sized drill core. Sampled intervals were identified by logging geologists and assigned a unique sample identification number. Samples were split in two halves using a diamond bladed saw with one half remaining in the core box as a permanent record and the half placed in a plastic sample bag, both marked with a waterproof tag bearing the unique sample number which was also written on the sample bag in permanent marker. Samples were transported from the Company’s secure facility by private courier to ALS Laboratories in Romania for geochemical analysis. ALS Laboratories is an independent ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 certified commercial laboratory with no relationship to the Company. The samples were analyzed using multi-element package ME_ICP41a and for gold using fire assay package Au-AA25. ME_ICP41a is an ore grade package involving digestion of a 0.4g sample by aqua regia with an Inductively coupled plasma – atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) finish. The Au-AA25 fire assay method is an ore grade analysis using a 30g aliquot. The aliquot is mixed with flux composed of PbO and SiO2 with variable amounts of borax, soda ash and other reagents. The flux and sample are mixed, then heated at high temperature (>1,000°C) to decompose rock lattices and allow gold within the sample to be collected into a lead button. The button is placed in a porous cupel and heated again in an oxidizing environment to convert lead to lead oxide that is absorbed into the cupel, leaving the precious metals behind as a doré bead or prill. The gold content of the prill is then determined by atomic adsorption spectrometry.

Both analyses are preceded by the preparation package Prep-31Y whereby the entire sample is crushed to 70% passing 2mm, a 250g split is collected by rotary splitter and pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns. Laboratory over-limits analysis methods were applied as required for both Sb and Au. A systematic QAQC protocol was employed that includes systematic insertion in the sample stream of certified reference materials and blank samples at a frequency of 1 in 10, plus analysis of duplicate pulp splits at a frequency of 1 in 30.

About the Project and Historical Resource

Discovered in the late 1970s, Trojárová was the focus of extensive surface and underground exploration over a 2km strike length from 1983 to 1995, with 63 core holes for a total of 14,330m, and 1.7km of underground workings completed. Efforts continued over the years as additional trenches were dug, and holes were drilled. Starting in 1990, underground development work began ultimately comprising a 300-meter-long adit connected to a 700-plus meter-long drive in the footwall of the mineralized zone with seven crosscuts into the mineralized zone for sampling purposes.

These efforts culminated in a comprehensive study comprising drill logs, analyses, drill plans, maps and sections, deposit model studies, petrographic studies, metallurgical studies and more, now detailed in a multi-volume compendium of reports produced by the Slovak Geological Institute published in 1992, including a historical mineral resource estimate (see “Historical Resource Estimates” below). Per this historical estimate, at a cut-off grade of 1.0% antimony, Trojárová hosts 2.46 million tonnes averaging 2.47% antimony and 0.635 grams per tonne gold in a mineralized zone averaging 3.32 meters wide, containing approximately 60,000 tonnes of antimony in situ.

Historical Resource Estimates

The historical estimate related to the Trojárová Property was taken from a compendium produced by the Slovak Geological Survey, completed in March 1992 based on exploration work undertaking in the 1980s and 1990s. It is entitled (English translation): “FINAL JOB REPORT, PEZINOK-TROJAROVA, Geological Survey State Enterprise”, report compendium number 78406 (Michel et al, 1992).

The Slovak Geological Institute, the state agency that carried out all exploration and underground development work at Trojárová, classified the historical resources as “P1” and “C2” in the Slovak version of the Russian classification system, respectively. These are closest within the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroleum’s (“CIM”) classification system to “inferred mineral resources,” which is defined by the CIM as that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence gathered through appropriate sampling techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes.

The historical work carried out appears comprehensive, detailed and at a professional standard. The Company considers this historical data to be relevant as the Company will use these data as a guide to plan future exploration programs. The Company also considers the data to be reliable for these purposes. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current, and the Company is not treating the historical estimate as current.
