Adyton Resources Corporation (TSX-V: ADY) is pleased to report the discovery of a new high-grade gold zone within the existing resource, from its 2025 infill drill program at the Gameta Gold development Project (50/50 JV), located on Fergusson Island in Papua New Guinea.
The 2025 program included 4201 meters of largely infill drilling for a total of 36 diamond core holes. Drilling focused on areas within the existing deposit to better define and expand known mineralization. Prior to this drilling, the Gameta Project’s Mineral Resource Estimate contained approximately 4.0 million tonnes @ 1.33 g/t Au for 173 koz gold (indicated), and 10.5 Mt @ 1.01 g/t Au for 340 koz gold (inferred), within a conceptual open-pit shell.
Hole GMDH009 returned 28.56 g/t Au over 12.0m starting from 146m downhole. This is the highest-grade intercept ever recorded by Adyton to date and highlights the presence of high-grade zones within the broader deposit. This result, along with other strong intercepts reported in this release, demonstrates the potential to enhance the overall grade of the planned open- pit at Gameta. These higher-grade zones could positively impact the upcoming Feasibility Study being advanced by Adyton and its JV partner EVIH.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS
GMDH009 12m @ 28.56g/t Au from 146 m downhole
GMDH008 13m @ 3.84g/t Au from 98 m downhole
GMDH021 16m @ 2.2.07g/t Au from 51 m downhole
GMDH010 6m @ 2.69g/t Au from 114 m downhole
GMDH005 13m @ 1.88g/t Au from 49 m downhole
GMDH013 13m @1.37g/t Au from 105 m downhole
GMDH005 14m @1.05 g/t Au from 94 m downhole
“I am very pleased with these results, which have exceeded our expectations and highlight the strength of the Gameta Project,” said Tim Crossley, Adyton CEO. “The project combines solid grades, near surface mineralisation, and favourable logistics, including access for barge transport to support envisioned development and concentrate shipment to end markets. We are now focused on advancing Gameta alongside the Wapolu Project, accelerating toward feasibility and permitting, with the goal of developing Gameta into a second production asset. Our vision for these projects is to unlock near-term cash flow through a disciplined Direct Ship concentrate strategy, while establishing a scalable foundation for long-term growth and value creation across the portfolio.”
“We are encouraged by the assay results at Gameta and, together with Adyton, plan to advance the project through MRE finalisation, Feasibility Studies, and permitting. Subject to permitting timelines, we are targeting a potential start of operations in the first half of 2028,” said Gary Wang, EVIH CEO.

QUALITY ASSURANCE / QUALITY CONTROL
Samples were analysed at the Sichuan Xiye Testing Technology Laboratory (SXTT) in China and QA/QC was verified using certified reference materials, blanks and duplicates that were blind to the lab.
In addition to this routine verification, 71 samples were selected among the highest-grade intervals and were re-submitted for assaying to confirm results. Assays replicated well and give confidence to the results.
Qualified Person
The scientific and technical information contained in this press release has been prepared, reviewed, and approved by Dr Chris Bowden, PhD, GCMEE, FAusIMM(CP), FSEG, the Chief Operating Officer and Chief Geologist of Adyton, who is a “Qualified Person” as defined by National Instrument 43‐101 ‐ Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
Adyton Resources Corporation is focused on advancing gold and copper projects in world-class mineral jurisdictions. The Company holds a portfolio of highly prospective assets in Papua New Guinea where it is actively working to expand its existing gold Inferred and Indicated Mineral Resources and build on recent high-grade gold and copper drill results at its 100% owned Feni Island project.
Adyton’s projects are located on the Pacific Ring of Fire, on accessible island settings that host several globally significant deposits including the Lihir gold mine and Panguna copper-gold mine on Bougainville Island, both in close proximity to Feni, highlighting the district-scale potential of the Company’s land package.
Feni Island Au-Cu project
The Feni Island Project currently has a mineral resource prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 dated October 14, 2021, which has outlined an initial inferred mineral resource of 60.4 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.75 g/t Au, for contained gold of 1,460,000 ounces, assuming a cut-off grade of 0.5 g/t Au. See the NI 43-101 technical report entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Feni Gold-Copper Property, New Ireland Province, Papua New Guinea prepared for Adyton Resources by Mark Berry (MAIG), Simon Tear (MIGI PGeo), Matthew White (MAIG) and Andy Thomas (MAIG), each an independent mining consultant and “qualified person” as defined in NI 43-101, available under Adyton’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
