Azincourt Energy Plans Inaugural Work Program at the Snegamook Uranium Project

• Permits received
• Up to 1000 meters of initial drilling planned to confirm and expand known uranium mineralization

Vancouver, British Columbia–(March 25, 2025) – AZINCOURT ENERGY CORP. (TSXV:AAZ) (OTCQB:AZURF) (“Azincourt” or the “Company“), is pleased to announce that it has permitting for an exploration program at its recently acquired Snegamook uranium project (the “Project”), located in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador.

SUMMARY:

• Azincourt Energy has received permitting for and will begin exploration at its newly acquired Snegamook Uranium Project in Canada’s Central Mineral Belt, near the historical Two Time Zone deposit (Indicated and Inferred resource of 5.55 Mlb U₃O₈, June 2008)*.
• Historical drilling at the Snegamook Project revealed shallow-dipping uranium lenses with grades up to 0.11% U₃O₈, indicating strong potential for further discovery.
• The Company’s 2025 work program includes site reconnaissance, review of historical drill core, and up to 1,000 meters of helicopter-supported diamond drilling to confirm and expand known mineralization.

The Project is strategically located to the southeast of Snegamook Lake within Labrador’s Central Mineral Belt and less than 1 km south of the Two Time Zone (Indicated and Inferred resource of 5.55 Mlb U₃O₈, June 2008)*, formerly held by Silver Spruce Resources Inc. as part of a larger land package, and consists of a mineral licence block comprised of 17 contiguous claims covering 423 hectares.

Drilling to follow up a radon gas anomaly identified the “Snegamook Zone” uranium occurrence located 1.3 km along strike to the southeast of the Two Time Zone (Figure 1, below). Four mineralized lenses were traced over a strike length of 300 meters and to a vertical depth of 200 meters. The lenses are shallow dipping (15 to 20 degrees west) and vary in width from five to 53 meters with values ranging from 225 to 771 ppm U₃O₈. Individual one-meter samples returned values up to 0.11% U₃O₈.

Mineralization and related hydrothermal alteration appear to be structurally controlled within lineaments crosscutting the host intrusive gneissic units. The zones appear to be disrupted to the south and down dip by steeply dipping fault structures that displace the basement gneiss but remain open to the north.

Drilling to test a radon gas anomaly 500 meters to the south of the Snegamook Zone also intersected zones of mineralization with grades up to 0.11% U₃O₈ over 3 m and 0.11% U₃O₈ over 2 m.

The Company is proposing an initial program of site reconnaissance and assessment of historical core located at the site of the old exploration camp from 2008, to be followed by up to 1,000 m of diamond drilling to confirm the existing mineralization within the Snegamook Zone and begin to expand the unnamed showing identified to the south. The program is anticipated to utilize one helicopter supported drill rig based out of a temporary work camp in the area. All equipment and supplies would be staged out of Happy Valley – Goose Bay, approximately 100 km to the south. It is anticipated that the reconnaissance phase of the program will be undertaken in June with the diamond drilling conducted in late summer to early fall.

“We are excited to get on the ground at Snegamook and begin to expand this deposit” said Vice President, Exploration Trevor Perkins. “The Project has great potential, and historical work has just given a hint of what may be in store for us to discover,” continued Mr. Perkins.
