Silver Pony Intersects 7.5 metres of Galena-Pyrite Mineralization at Revelstoke; Assays Pending

Silver Pony Resources Corp. (CSE: PONY) (FSE: BJ40)(OTCID: PONIF) (formerly Carlyle Commodities Corp.) is pleased to report the completion of its 2026 drill program at the Silver Pony Project in southeastern British Columbia. Ten holes totaling 2,280.17 metres were drilled across the Black Warrior and Revelstoke target areas, the first drilling in the Company’s history on the Project. Drilling at the Revelstoke Trend was highlighted by the program’s longest logged downhole interval containing visible galena and pyrite: 7.5 metres in hole SP-26-009, from 156.5 to 164.0 metres, hosted in veined and locally brecciated marble. The interval represents downhole length.

Highlights

  • The 2026 drill program is complete: ten holes totaling 2,280.17 metres across the Black Warrior and Revelstoke target areas (Table 2).
  • SP-26-009 intersected the longest logged galena (PbS) – pyrite (FeS2) interval in the program: 7.5 metres downhole of mineralization hosted in veined and locally brecciated marble from 156.5 to 164.0 metres (Table 1, Figure 1)*.
  • All six holes drilled at the Revelstoke Trend intersected mineralized intervals within the same marble and schist package, from near surface in the first fan to the deepest hole drilled at the trend (Table 1)*.
  • Drill core from all ten holes has been logged and sampled, and shipments to the laboratory are in their final stage. Assay results for the program will be reported once final laboratory certificates are received and reviewed.
  • The drill and camp have been demobilized, and the Company looks forward to updating shareholders as assay results are received.

* Geological observations were made from core logging and are qualitative. They indicate that mineralization is present, not what grade it carries. The metal content of these intersections will be known only when laboratory assay results are received, and readers are cautioned to await those results before drawing conclusions.

 

 

Completion of the 2026 Drill Program

The final three holes of the program were completed at the Revelstoke Trend from the pad on the valley floor. SP-26-008 was completed at 186.00 metres on August 23, SP-26-009 at 211.00 metres on August 26, and SP-26-010, the deepest hole at the Revelstoke Trend, at 241.30 metres. Drilling has concluded and the drill, team and camp were demobilized from site.

SP-26-009 intersected a 7.5 metre downhole zone of veined and locally brecciated marble carrying galena and pyrite from 156.5 to 164.0 metres, together with a vein breccia at 78.2 metres and broad intervals of disseminated pyrite in the surrounding graphitic marble and schist. SP-26-008 intersected a series of narrower pyrite-bearing vein breccias within graphitic marble through much of the hole, along with a broad interval of disseminated pyrite in interbedded graphitic schist and marble. SP-26-010 tested the package at the greatest depth drilled at the Revelstoke Trend and intersected a strongly mineralized pyritic zone in graphitic marble at 117 metres and a mineralized breccia at 218 metres, with the long marble and schist intervals it crossed helping to constrain the geometry of the mineralized contacts for the structural model now being built.

Surface grab sample assays reported by the Company on August 27, 2026, showed an association between elevated silver values and lead, including in samples containing coarse galena, a lead sulphide mineral. Galena has also been visually identified in certain intervals in the current drill core; however, assays of the drill core remain pending, and the Company cautions that the presence of galena does not establish the grade or silver content of those intervals.

SP-26-010 117.86 118.51 0.65 Strongly mineralized marble; pyrite disseminated to locally semi-massive along veins and fractures.
SP-26-010 217.90 218.40 0.50 Brecciated schist and marble with carbonate infill and pyrite along fractures and veins.

*The table lists every interval logged as mineralized or as a vein breccia in the geological logs; broader intervals of disseminated pyrite in the surrounding schist and marble are described in the text above. All intervals are downhole lengths from the geological logs; true widths are not yet known. These are qualitative core observations, not assay results. Mineralized intervals for the earlier Revelstoke holes were reported in the Company’s August 27, 2026, news release.

 

 


Figure 3 – Plan map and cross-section A-A′ of the Revelstoke Trend showing the 2026 drill pads and completed holes. Coordinates UTM NAD83 Zone 11N; arrows show drilling azimuth and dips are collar set-up orientations. In the section, holes are projected up to ~20 m onto A-A′ with no vertical exaggeration. Intervals are downhole logged lengths, not assays; true widths are not yet known. Surface samples are selective grab samples and may not be representative; Pb >15% is above the upper limit, with over-limit analysis pending. Historic results are from 1985 trenching and sampling on the Redcliff claims (von Einsiedel, 1985) and the 2021 exploration sampling program (Carpenter, 2022). These historical results have not been independently verified by the QP. The trend projection beyond the mapped segment is interpretive. Geology after GSC OF 6572 (Kraft et al., 2011), modified.

What Comes Next

Assay results for the drill program will be reported once final laboratory certificates are received and reviewed. Three-dimensional structural interpretation of the drilling and mapping data is underway ahead of the next phase of work. The Company looks forward to providing further updates.

 

Chris Furey, Silver Pony’s VP of Exploration, commented: “In our first season we went from surface showings to a completed first drill program, and I’m proud of the team that got us there. Mapping shows the trend continuing along strike in both directions, with signs of it in the next valley over. We head into the winter with a lot of new information, and it keeps adding targets. At Ophir Lade, we plan to evaluate the vein system for drilling once we better understand its geometry. With assays still to come, we look forward to receiving the results.”

Coordinates are UTM NAD83 Zone 11N, as published on August 27, 2026; SP-26-009 and SP-26-010 were drilled from the same pad as SP-26-008. Azimuths and dips are collar set-up orientations; downhole deviation was measured by single-shot survey in each hole. All holes are NQ diameter.

 

 

Quality Assurance and Quality Control

Drill core is NQ diameter, logged by a geoscientist, split in half with a core saw, and one half is bagged, tagged and sealed for shipment while the other half is retained in a secure facility. Chain of custody is maintained from the drill to the laboratory. Certified reference materials, blanks and field duplicates are inserted at a combined rate of 5%. Core samples have been submitted to Actlabs an independent ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory in Kamloops, B.C., for gold by fire assay and silver and base metals by four-acid digestion. Drill core assay results will be reported once final certificates are received and reviewed.
