Sable Defines Additional Targets within the Copper Queen Project in British Columbia

VANCOUVER, Dec. 10, 2024 - Sable Resources Ltd. ("Sable" or the "Company") (TSXV:SAE | OTCQB:SBLRF) is pleased to announce new results from several mineralized areas within its 100% owned Copper Queen Project located in west-central British Columbia ("Copper Queen" or the "Property").

Highlights

• The Copper Queen Project area now covers 15,133 hectares and contains at least five separate Cu targets: Breccias 1,2,3, Roof, Nogwon, Charlotte, and Breccia 4.
• Breccias 1,2,3 were identified by Anaconda in 1969. Roof, Nogwon, Charlotte, and mineralization East of Breccia 4, were not previously recorded, and are considered new discoveries made by Sable during the 2024 summer exploration campaign.
• 234 rock samples have been collected by Sable throughout the Property and all results have been received. A maximum value of 2.67% Cu is recorded.
• All the new targets will be subjected to additional fieldwork, including mapping, rock sampling, soil sampling and geophysics, planned for summer, 2025.

Dr. Ruben Padilla, President and CEO of Sable commented, "We have seen a continuous growth of our Copper Queen Project thanks to the active exploration work conducted by our geology team last summer, defining multiple copper targets and associated molybdenum, silver, and gold mineralization hosted by magmatic-hydrothermal breccias and highly fractured zones. Our present targets are now contained within an area of 12km by 18km, and large areas of our present land package have yet to be explored. We're looking forward to returning to the field next summer, to continue to advance these high-potential targets."

New Target Description

Roof

The Roof target, located 3.5 km north of breccias 1,2,3, exhibit copper mineralization hosted in foliated metavolcanic rocks. Chalcopyrite and malachite are disseminated along the foliation planes and deposited along fractures. Outcropping mineralization is observed for approximately 420m with the possibility extending to 610m. Of 17 samples collected, 13 returned values greater than 0.1% Cu, with a highest value of 2.67% Cu, 37.9 g/t Ag, and 0.19 g/t Au being recorded to date.

Nogwon

The Nogwon target is located approximately 14.5km east from Breccias 1,2,3. Limited outcrop exposed within a glacial cirque reveals the presence of granite-hosted intrusion breccias with Cu mineralization in the cement. Chalcopyrite is also observed in the granite within small cavities that resemble miarolitic cavities, lined with the breccia-cement assemblage of quartz, calcite and chlorite. Of 23 samples collected, nine returned values higher than 0.1% Cu with a maximum value of 1.25% Cu, 20.8 g/t Ag, and 0.1 g/t Au being recorded to date. Out cropping mineralization is observed over an area of 320m by 200m and is open in all directions, as outcrop around the cirque is generally hidden by unconsolidated glacial moraine.

Charlotte

The Charlotte target is located 11.5km north of breccias 1,2, 3 and 28km southwest of the village of Nimpo Lake. The target is road accessible from Highway 20 along the Charlotte Lake FSR. Colour anomalies observed from satellite images coincide with quartz veins containing chalcopyrite. Copper mineralization is also contained in skarn alteration along the contact of Jurassic granite with fine grain hornfelsed sediments. A large zone with altered and oxidized boulders is located on the eastern-most part of the target. A single sample collected from these boulders returned 0.27% Cu and 41 ppm Mo. Another sample collected 440m to the east returned 880 ppm Mo, suggesting a possible porphyry environment. Anomalous Cu values recorded to date are dispersed along an approximately 1.4km east-west corridor.

Breccia 4

Breccia 4, located on the eastern side of McClinchy Lake, is one of the breccias originally discovered by Anaconda in 1968. The target consists of granite clasts with sericite-pyrite cement. This breccia reveals no Cu mineralization, but local molybdenite with values up to 131 ppm Mo is observed. Exploration around the breccia revealed three zones containing Cu bearing veins located west, east, and southeast of Breccia 4. Values recorded in these veins attain 0.68% Cu and 473 ppm Mo. All the copper occurrences around Breccia 4 are contained within an area of about 3.7 km². The area is heavily covered and requires additional mapping and prospection.

SAMPLE PREPARATION AND QA/QC

Sample preparation for projects in British Columbia is carried out by ALS Minerals, at its facility located in Kamloops with analyses carried out at their laboratory in Vancouver. Sample preparation includes drying in an oven at a maximum temperature of 60°C, fine crushing of the sample to at least 70% passing less than 2 mm, sample splitting using a riffle splitter, and pulverizing a 250 g split to at least 85% passing 75 microns (code PREP-31). The samples contained in this news release were analyzed by methods Au-AA24 (Fire Assay Fusion and Atomic Absorption Spectrometry finish) and ME-MS61 (Four Acid Digestion with Mass Spectrometry finish); the latter one includes 48 elements (Al, Ag, As, Ba, Be, Bi, Ca, Cd, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu, Fe, Ga, Ge, Hf, In, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Mo, Na, Nb, Ni, P, Pb, Rb, Re, S, Sb, Sc, Se, Sn, Sr, Ta, Te, Th, Ti, Tl, U, V, W, Y, Zn, Zr). Both digestion methods dissolve most minerals but not all elements are quantitatively extracted in some sample matrices. ALS additionally collects a subsample from the coarse reject to be analyzed by Terraspec; spectral data is sent to AISIRIS Australia to be processed and interpreted.

Control samples (standards, blanks, and duplicates) are inserted systematically, and their results evaluated according to the Company protocols.

ABOUT THE COPPER QUEEN PROJECT

Copper Queen is located 225km west of Williams Lake in Central Western BC. Exploration work conducted by Anaconda American Brass ("Anaconda") between 1968 and 1969 shows the existence of quartz feldspar porphyries and at least five mineralized breccias within a porphyry system of approximately 4.5km by 2km. Anaconda reported drilling 182m in two holes in 1969, however, Anaconda did not file detailed information about the drilling but reported grades from 0.2 to 0.3% Cu in 6 to 25 metres intervals. Rio Tinto drilled two holes totaling 119m on the southern margin of McClinchy Lake following a chargeability anomaly where Cu mineralization was observed but the results were not significant. Minor sampling visits were conducted in 1982 and 1994, and a 900km VLF-EM and radiometric survey was conducted by Seaborne Minerals in 2011. No exploration activity has been performed at Copper Queen since 2011 and no mapping since the Anaconda times. Sable initially staked the Property in May 2024 and recently extended the Property to 15,133 hectares.

The Company notes that grab samples are selective by nature and therefore should not be understood as representative of the actual grades in the Property. Additionally, the Company clarifies that the historical Anaconda work on the Property is used only as a reference and that the original Anaconda reports or data have not been found.
