Thune torches Senate Dems for allowing ‘far-left’ lawmakers to hijack party after blocking crucial bill

Politics 3 Mins Read

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., believed that Senate Democrats were ‘in a bad place’ after they tanked Republicans’ push to consider the annual defense spending bill on Friday.

Thune argued during an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital that Democrats’ decision to vote against the procedural exercise seemed like ‘an extreme measure, and I think it’s coming from a very dysfunctional place right now.’

‘I think there’s a ton of dysfunction in the Democrat caucus, and I think this [‘No Kings’] rally this weekend is triggering a lot of this,’ he said.

Thune’s move to put the bill on the floor was a multipronged effort. One of the elements was to apply pressure on Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and his caucus to join Republicans to jump start the government funding process as the shutdown continues to drag on.

Another was to test Democrats’ desire to fund the government on a bipartisan basis — a demand they had made in the weeks leading up to the shutdown.

‘I think the leadership is applying pressure,’ Thune said. ‘They were all being called into Schumer’s office this morning to be browbeaten into voting ‘no’ on the defense appropriations bill, something that most of them, you know, like I said, that should be an 80-plus vote in the Senate.’

To his point, the bill easily glided through committee earlier this year on a 26 to 3 vote, and like a trio of spending bills passed in August, typically would have advanced in the upper chamber on a bipartisan basis.

The bill, which Senate Republicans hoped to use as a vehicle to add more spending bills, would have funded the Pentagon and paid military service members.

But Senate Democrats used a similar argument to block the bill that they’ve used over the last 16 days of the government shutdown in their pursuit of an extension to expiring Obamacare subsidies: they wanted a guarantee on which bills would have been added to the minibus package.

‘What are you — are you gonna go around and talk to people about a hypothetical situation,’ Thune countered. ‘I think, you know, once we’re on the bill, then it makes sense to go do that, have those conversations, which is what we did last time.’

The Senate could get another chance to vote on legislation next week that would pay both the troops and certain federal employees that have to work through the shutdown, but it won’t be the defense funding bill. Instead, it’s legislation from Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., and several other Senate Republicans.

As for the torpedoed defense bill, which was the last vote for the week in the Senate, Thune argued that it was emblematic of Senate Democrats being ‘in a place where the far-left is the tail wagging the dog.’

‘And you would think that federal workers, who you know, federal employee unions, public employee unions, who Democrats [count] as generally part of their constituency, right now, they’re way more concerned about what Moveon.org and Indivisible, and some of those groups are saying about them, evidently, than what some of their constituents here are saying,’ he said.

‘Because there’s going to be people who are going to start missing paychecks, and this thing gets real pretty fast,’ he continued.

Teen street musician jailed for leading anti-Putin song performance in St. Petersburg: report

Politics 2 Mins Read

A teenage street musician has been jailed and charged with leading a public gathering in which she led a crowd in singing an anti-Putin rock song in St. Petersburg, a rare act of defiance, according to local reports.

Diana Loginova faces a single administrative charge for organizing an unauthorized public gathering and has been jailed for 13 days, The Moscow Times reported.

After serving her sentence, Loginova will face an additional administrative offense of ‘discrediting’ the Russian military, Reuters reported.

Loginova, who performs under the name Naoko with the band Stoptime, was arrested Tuesday after being filmed earlier leading a crowd in singing the lyrics to exiled rapper Noize MC’s hit song ‘Swan Lake Cooperative.’

Noize MC, the musician who wrote ‘Swan Lake Cooperative,’ is openly critical of the Kremlin and left Russia for Lithuania after the start of the war in Ukraine.

For its part, Moscow has added him to its list of ‘foreign agents,’ which includes hundreds of individuals and entities accused of conducting subversive activities with support from abroad, Reuters reported.

The song doesn’t reference Russian President Vladimir Putin or mention the war in Ukraine. It is a reference to Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake, which was played on television after the deaths of Soviet leaders and during the 1991 coup attempt against President Mikhail Gorbachev.

In May, a St. Petersburg court banned the song on grounds it ‘may contain signs of justification and excuse for hostile, hateful attitudes towards people, as well as statements promoting violent changes to the foundations of the constitutional order.’

Battleground Republicans hold the line as Johnson pressures Dems on shutdown

Politics 7 Mins Read

House Republicans in battleground districts appear to be closing ranks as GOP leaders dig in on their government shutdown strategy, while the fiscal standoff shows no signs of slowing. 

Eight House GOP lawmakers whose seats are being targeted by Democrats in 2026 spoke with Fox News Digital this week. And while some shared individual concerns, they were largely united in agreeing with Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., that Republicans should not renegotiate their federal funding proposal — and were confident that Americans are behind them.

‘The more people understand the math inside of the Senate, the more I would say Republicans are winning,’ said Rep. Rob Bresnahan, R-Pa., who defeated a moderate Democrat for his seat last year.

Rep. Jen Kiggans, R-Va., who also flipped her seat from blue to red, argued the results of the 2024 election show Americans ‘can see through a lot of the games that the Democrats have been playing.’

‘We’ve gotten to work with the demands of the American voters, and Democrats are still in disarray,’ she said.

Rep. Derrick Van Orden, R-Wis., said, ‘It’s a simple math problem. And the Democrat Party grossly underestimated the American public’s ability to understand math.’

For a House GOP conference that’s been plagued by historic levels of division in recent history — particularly over the issue of government funding — it has shown a notable display of unity amid the shutdown, with few exceptions.

The shutdown is poised to roll into next week after most Senate Democrats voted to block the GOP’s bill for a tenth time. 

Republicans put forward last month a seven-week extension of fiscal year (FY) 2025 funding levels, called a continuing resolution (CR), aimed at giving congressional negotiators more time to strike a long-term deal for FY2026.

But Democrats in the House and Senate were infuriated by being sidelined in those talks. The majority of Democrats are refusing to accept any deal that does not include serious healthcare concessions, at least extending COVID-19 pandemic-era Obamacare subsidies that are set to expire at the end of this year.

Several vulnerable Republicans who spoke with Fox News Digital pointed out they’re in favor of extending the Obamacare subsidies as well. Indeed, a majority of them are backers of a bipartisan bill to extend them for one year, led by Kiggans.

‘I think we would actually prefer to have … longer term than one year,’ said Rep. Ryan Mackenzie, R-Pa.

But Mackenzie also pointed out that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., criticized the one-year bill, adding, ‘He already said ‘Absolutely not,’ so I don’t even know what their position is and what they’re asking for.’

Jeffries walked those comments back somewhat a day later, telling reporters that Democrats were willing to look at any good-faith offer.

Kiggans told Fox News Digital, ‘I care about that issue, certainly, you know, I had introduced that [Affordable Care Act] premium tax cuts extension.’

She added that Obamacare, formally called the ACA, and reopening the government are ‘two different issues, though’ that should be discussed separately.

The House Republicans who spoke with Fox News Digital, while largely supportive of discussing Obamacare subsidy reforms and extensions, were united in refusing to entertain Democrats’ demands to come back to the negotiating table on federal funding. All maintained, in some form, that the House did its job in passing the CR on Sept. 19.

‘We have a clean CR that would fund all of the programs — all of the federal employees, keep everything up and running through Nov. 21st, so that we can finalize FY2026 appropriations and address issues like healthcare. But you don’t do it at the barrel of a gun,’ said Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y.

Lawler is one of three House Republicans who won in a district that President Donald Trump lost in 2024.

‘I think what the Democrats are doing here is creating a mess for the American people. And they’re not actually solving any of the problems,’ he said.

Mackenzie said, ‘It was a seven-week continuing resolution so that we could have time to have policy discussions on other issues that did need to be wrapped up by the end of the year. And we were on track to do that. And I think [Democrats] totally blew that process up.’

‘This is an unprecedented thing that Senate Democrats are doing, trying to add policy programs into the new continuity of funding bill,’ Rep. Tom Kean, R-N.J., the most vulnerable Republican in the Garden State, also said.

Both Lawler and Rep. Dave Valadao, R-Calif., warned that giving up a policy rider-free spending bill in favor of inserting partisan demands would create an unworkable new standard.

‘Holding the government office is never a good strategy. And if it becomes a successful way of negotiating … it’ll set a bad precedent for governing moving forward,’ Valadao said. ‘So this is an absolute no-go, should never be successful.’

Lawler said, ‘The reality is, the moment you start giving in on a clean CR and start giving in to demands, this will continue in perpetuity. Every time there’s a government funding lapse, you’ll have a group of people demanding something, and it will turn into a fiasco.’

Several of the battleground Republicans also praised Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., in the process.

Valadao told Fox News Digital, ‘I think they’re doing a good job. At least all the calls I’ve been on, the conversations I’ve had with my colleagues and, again, folks in the district, they all seem pretty confident that we’re doing the right thing.’

Lawler said Johnson had ‘handled it well,’ while Bresnahan said, ‘I would say, at least with members, they’re, you know, keeping very fluid conversations. We have daily or at least biweekly calls here as to what the messaging needs to be and what the conversations are.’

But there has been some dissent within the House GOP as the shutdown drags on.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., has criticized House Republican leaders for not announcing a plan on extending the Obamacare subsidies.

And Rep. Kevin Kiley, R-Calif., publicly ripped Johnson’s decision to keep the House out of session while the Senate considers the CR.

‘It is absolutely unacceptable to me and I think only serves further distrust,’ Kiley told MSNBC on Wednesday.

Notably, not all battleground House Republicans who spoke with Fox News Digital directly backed Johnson’s move — but none explicitly condemned it, either, and most blamed Senate Democrats for the holdup.

‘I’m kind of torn on that, because to come back and just be a part of the gimmicks that you see going on right now is not helpful,’ Valadao said. ‘Holding the government hostage is what’s the problem here.’

Kiggans, who said she’s lobbying for the House to vote on a standalone bill to pay both active duty and civilian members of the military, said, ‘I think we all want to get back to work. We know that we have work to do, but the ball’s in the court of the Senate Democrats and Chuck Schumer.’

Others more directly backed the move, however.

Kean told Fox News Digital that his staff were still busy in D.C. and in New Jersey trying to help constituents navigate the shutdown and other matters.

‘Any chance we can get back to our district, it’s always important that we listen to our constituents and hear their concerns,’ Kean said. ‘Right now, I 100% support the decision.’

Rep. Zach Nunn, R-Iowa, said it was ‘the right move.’

‘We should be with our district. I’m keeping all my district offices open despite nobody getting paid,’ Nunn said. ‘Coming back and having a theatrical debate is less effective than having a real conversation about how to get the government back open.’

The deafening silence of the ‘Free Palestine’ movement after the Gaza ceasefire

Politics 3 Mins Read

In theory, this should be a moment of vindication for the Free Palestine movement. A ceasefire holds. Israel has pulled back troops. International headlines finally reflect what activists have shouted for months: that Gaza’s suffering matters. 

And yet, the plazas are still. The hashtags have gone dormant. The chants that once shook campuses have faded into uneasy silence.

Why? 

Many activists can’t celebrate because celebration feels like surrender.

Behavioral science has some explanations. First, there’s cognitive dissonance at play. When the suffering that fueled your cause suddenly ends, any gesture toward happiness feels obscene. They still see bombed hospitals and displaced families. To cheer would feel like betrayal – not of Israel, but of grief itself.

Second, social identity theory tells us people bond most tightly when facing a common enemy. But when the enemy momentarily recedes, cohesion falters. You can see it in activist networks now debating purity tests and political hierarchies: who’s really anti-colonial, who’s performative. The silence isn’t apathy; it’s fragmentation.

And then there’s the matter of trust. The Free Palestine movement’s emotional currency is their perceived moral authenticity. That’s why President Donald Trump, despite questioning aid to Israel, gains no credit here. Even if he were to deliver every demand the Free Palestine movement has ever made – an end to occupation, full recognition, humanitarian aid – he would get no credit. 

To them, he is not a messenger; he is a metaphor. His name evokes everything they stand against: nationalism, hierarchy, cruelty disguised as strength. Their ears are hardened not by indifference, but by identity. When a message comes from a symbol of what you despise, its meaning dies on arrival. That’s not hypocrisy – it’s human nature. We hear only what affirms who we are. What remains is a vacuum of feeling – neither victory nor defeat, just unresolved tension.

For many, that tension is unbearable, so silence becomes self-protection. But silence has a cost.

A movement that cannot speak when conditions improve loses moral clarity. If the world only hears you when you’re angry, it stops listening when you’re right. The tragedy of the Free Palestine silence is not hypocrisy; it’s heartbreak. It reveals how thoroughly moral identity has replaced moral imagination.

To move forward, supporters must learn to celebrate small mercies without mistaking them for betrayal – to see progress not as perfection, but as proof that pain is finally being heard. Until then, the quiet will continue. Not because there’s nothing to say, but because joy, after so much rage, feels foreign on the tongue.

Stallion Uranium Commencing Ground Electromagnetic Survey on the Coyote Corridor

Investing 7 Mins Read

Stallion Uranium Corp. (the ‘ Company ‘ or ‘ Stallion ‘ ) (TSX-V: STUD ; OTCQB: STLNF ; FSE: FE0) pleased to announce that it will commence a high-resolution ground Time Domain Electromagnetic (TDEM) survey on November 1, 2025, on its Coyote Target, part of the Moonlite Project in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Canada in partnership with Atha Energy Corp. (‘Atha Energy’) (TSX-V: SASK) .

This survey is designed to extend and refine the results of Stallion’s previous EM work, with the goal of precisely defining conductive structures commonly associated with uranium mineralization. The program will focus on the Coyote Corridor, home to Stallion’s top-priority drill targets identified through detailed analysis of historical datasets and newly acquired geophysical information. These targets were ranked using Stallion’s multi-parameter review, which applies an 11 step ranking criteria of components for discovery.

Matthew Schwab, CEO of Stallion Uranium, said, ‘Launching this ground EM survey at the Coyote Target is a critical step toward advancing our discovery efforts. By improving the resolution of our geophysical data, we expect not only to sharpen the definition of our highest-priority targets, but also to increase the number of drill-ready locations across the Coyote Corridor. Each additional high-confidence target strengthens our ability to deliver meaningful results in the upcoming drill campaign.’

Conductors interpreted from previous MobileMT Survey

The survey will be conducted by Abitibi Geophysics using the Stepwise Moving Loop (SWML) TDEM method, a proven technique for detecting conductive zones within basement rock. Data collected will be fully integrated with the airborne and ground surveys completed earlier in 2025, providing Stallion with an enhanced geophysical model to guide next-stage exploration.

Darren Slugoski, Vice President of Exploration, said, ‘This ground-based survey will significantly improve the resolution of our geophysical data, allowing us to more accurately model conductive features at depth. By integrating the results with our existing datasets, we will be able to fine-tune the positioning of drill collars and reduce the risk of missing mineralized structures. Increasing confidence in the geometry and location of these conductors is essential to maximizing the effectiveness of our upcoming drill program.’

Figure 2 : Coyote Target – SWML Plates over Gravity with planned EM survey locations

Survey results are expected in late November 2025 and will directly guide final drill targeting. Stallion is preparing to mobilize for a winter drill program in December 2025, where the refined targets from the Coyote Corridor will be tested for potential uranium mineralization.

About the Stepwise Moving Loop (SWML) TDEM Survey:

The SWML TDEM survey utilizes Abitibi’s cutting-edge ARMIT-TDEM system, featuring a three-component, combined B-field and ∂B/∂t sensor developed by Dr. James Macnae of the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT). The ARMIT sensor delivers an exceptional signal-to-noise ratio, comparable to a SQUID sensor for B-field measurements and an induction coil for B/t detection. It is designed for robust performance across extreme temperatures (-40°C to +50°C) without the need for hazardous cryogenic liquids.

ARMIT is the only sensor capable of simultaneously measuring both B-field and B/t, ensuring a broad detection range for conductive structures. The system is paired with the state-of-the-art SMARTem24 receiver and powered by Abitibi’s TerraScope 600V transmitter, delivering currents exceeding 25 A into the transmitter loop, maximizing the survey’s depth penetration and resolution.

Marketing Update:

In parallel with advancing exploration, Stallion Uranium has engaged specialized marketing firms to expand its market presence and broaden shareholder awareness. These initiatives include targeted digital campaigns, media and content development, and investor outreach programs across North America and Europe. The objective is to ensure Stallion’s technical milestones; including the commencement of the Coyote Target ground EM survey and the planned January 2026 drill program; are effectively communicated to both existing shareholders and new audiences.

The Company announces that it engaged Danayi Capital Corp. (‘Danayi’) to provide investor relations and marketing services to the Company for a term of two (2) months commencing on September 29, 2025, in consideration of an upfront payment of USD $100,000 pursuant to an agreement dated September 29, 2025. Danayi does not currently own any interest, directly or indirectly, in the Company or its securities. The agreement with Danayi remains subject to approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

Questcorp and Riverside Update Substantial Drilling Progress at the LA Union Gold and Silver Project with Seven Holes Completed at Four Targets

Investing 5 Mins Read

Questcorp Mining Inc. (CSE: QQQ,OTC:QQCMF) (OTCQB: QQCMF) (FSE: D910) (the ‘Company’ or ‘Questcorp’) is pleased to further update investors on its maiden drilling program at the La Union gold and silver project in Sonora, Mexico, which continues on track and on budget. The program is now two-thirds complete with initial and second holes now completed at four of the five main targets. This update follows the company’s Aug. 6, 2025, announcement marking the start of the program and Aug. 19, Sept. 10 and Sept. 24 news releases chronicling the progress of the program.

Saf Dhillon, President and Chief Executive Officer, states: ‘The drilling had started of a little slower and then was paused for unusually heavy rains. The initial plan was to drill 4 to 6 holes but, the Riverside team and their subcontracted drillers have been making substantial progress and we’re now at 7 completed holes with plans for another 2 to 5. In total, four of the five target zones have been drill tested with at least one hole.’

Two holes have now probed the Union mine target beneath historic workings, cutting through the Clemente and Caborca formations – both key host units for past mining at Union, encountering the distinctive microconglomeratic carbonate unit that historically hosted mineralization at the bottom of the Union mine.

Two holes have been completed at Famosa, testing the dip and strike extension of the mineralization in the historic workings as well as the foot wall and hanging wall of a steeply west-dipping major structural feature. Riverside select grab sampling from the Famosa dump retuned gold grade highlights of 59.4 g/t gold along with 833 g/t silver.

Two holes tested the North Union target and one tested the El Cobre target again probing beneath the historic workings for chimney and manto mineralization.

Additional holes are planned for all four of these targets, with one hole also planned for the El Creston Target.

Questcorp cautions investors grab sample by their very nature are select samples and may not be indicative of mineralization on the property.

Initial drilling is also planned for newly generated targets to the west of the known mineralization trend. The target is feeder zones along pre-mineral fault structures.

Once this initial campaign is completed, follow-up work will integrate assay results, ongoing surface programs, additional induced polarization (IP) surveys, and refined geological interpretations based on stratigraphy and structure observed in drilling.

Spartan Metals Commences Exploration Program at the Eagle Tungsten-Silver-Rubidium Project, Nevada

Investing 7 Mins Read

(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, Canada, October 16, 2025 TheNewswire – Spartan Metals Corp. (‘ Spartan ‘ or the ‘ Company ‘) (TSX-V: W) is pleased to announce, it has initiated an exploration program (‘ Program ‘) at its Eagle Tungsten-Silver-Rubidium Project in Nevada (Figure 1). The focus of the Program will be characterizing the tailings at the historic Tungstonia millsite and completing extensive surface exploration at the Tungstonia and Rees claim blocks.

This Program will execute the entire Phase 1 of the recommended work program from Spartan’s July 31, 2025, NI 43-101 Technical Report on the Eagle Project and will be expanded to include the Surface Geology Program component of Phase 2. Results acquired from this campaign will be used to support future work plans and drill target generation.

Tungstonia Mill Tailings Characterization

The characterization of Tungstonia Millsite tailings will be the primary focus of the exploration activities and drilling will begin on October 20, 2025 . Drilling at the historic tailings site will use a hollow stem auger to collect samples. All samples collected will be used for thorough geochemical and metallurgical analysis, as well as to define the overall geometry for tonnage calculations, 3D modeling, quantitative assessment, resource estimation, and economic evaluation.

Surface Geology Program

The surface geology program will encompass both Tungstonia and Rees Claim blocks, with an emphasis on comprehensive soil sampling at an approximate 100 m x 100 metre (‘ m ‘) grid (Figures 2 and 3), expanded rock and outcrop sampling, geologic mapping, and geophysical investigations—including Controlled Source Audio-frequency Magnetotellurics (CSAMT) and/or Magnetotellurics (MT)—at Tungstonia. These efforts aim to more accurately define the lateral and vertical extent of existing tungsten-silver-rubidium veins, identify new vein occurrences (Figure 4), and determine high-potential drill targets.

NevGold Discovers High-Grade Oxide Antimony “Bullet Zone” From Surface with 2025 Step-Out Drilling: 14.90 g/t AuEq Over 4.6 MetersWithin 2.42 g/t AuEq Over 53.3 Metersat Limo Butte, Nevada

Investing 14 Mins Read

Nevgold Corp. (‘ NevGold ‘ or the ‘ Company ‘) ( TSXV:NAU,OTC:NAUFF) (OTCQX:NAUFF) (Frankfurt:5E50 ) is pleased to announce the discovery of high-grade oxide antimony in the new antimony-gold ‘Bullet Zone’ from surface at its Limousine Butte Project (the ‘Project’, ‘Limo Butte’) in Nevada. The Bullet Zone was discovered with a plus 150 meter step-out drillhole from 2025 drilling that was testing NevGold’s new geology model at the Project. The Bullet Zone discovery significantly expands the gold-antimony mineralization footprint at the Resurrection Ridge target area, which NevGold is advancing to an initial gold-antimony Mineral Resource Estimate (‘MRE’).

Key Highlights

  • Discovery of the Bullet Zone with new 2025 step-out drilling intercepts the highest-grade antimony (‘Antimony’, ‘Sb’) interval drilled to date at the Project, with grades up to 8.9% Sb :
    • LB25-002 Upper Zone (from surface): 14.90 g/t AuEq* over 4.6 meters (3.76% Sb and 0.29 g/t Au) , within 2.42 g/t AuEq* over 53.3 meters (0.57% Sb and 0.22 g/t Au)
    • LB25-002 Lower Zone: 0.82 g/t AuEq* over 32.0 meters (0.68 g/t Au and 0.04% Sb) , within 0.58 g/t AuEq* over 57.9 meters (0.45 g/t Au and 0.03% Sb)
    • *Gold equivalents (‘AuEq’) are based on assumed metals prices of US$3,000/oz of gold and US$40,000 per tonne of antimony (~30% discount to current spot prices), and assumed metals recoveries of 80% for gold and 75% for antimony.
  • Over 150 meter step-out and discovery of the Bullet Zone significantly expands the mineralization footprint at Resurrection Ridge; the Company intends to advance both Resurrection Ridge and Cadillac Valley to an initial gold-antimony Mineral Resource Estimate (‘MRE’)
    • 11 drillholes have been completed in the current 2025 drill campaign with assays pending
  • Positive samples at surface up to 6.8% antimony and 0.25 g/t Au found in road cuts during construction of the new 2025 drill pads (see Figure 1); the new drill pads are focused on expansion areas and show the extensive mineralization potential at the Project
  • Phase II metallurgical testwork on gold and antimony continues to advance with results expected over the coming weeks

Limo Butte Planned 2025 Activities / Status Update
NevGold will continue its active exploration program at Limo Butte including:

  • Evaluating the historical geological database with focus on gold and antimony (completed) ;
  • Analyzing historical drilling with focus on gold and antimony (continuous activity) ;
  • Advancing metallurgical testwork (in progress, Phase II results in coming weeks) ;
  • Continuing to drill test gold-antimony targets (ongoing, 11 drillholes completed to date) ;
  • Completing initial gold-antimony Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) (in progress) .

NevGold CEO, Brandon Bonifacio, comments: ‘We are extremely excited about the discovery of the high-grade antimony intercept in the new oxide gold-antimony Bullet Zone from surface . The geological concept of drilling below the older, thrusted dolomite unit was a target that our team developed over the past couple of years working at Limo Butte. The fact that we intercepted some of the highest grade mineralization that we have drilled to date at Limo Butte on the 1 st hole testing this target concept is exceptional and a testament to our technical team. The discovery of the Bullet Zone also significantly expands the mineralization footprint at Resurrection Ridge, and opens large areas of the Project overlain by dolomite, with no historical drilling .’

Bonifacio continues: ‘We are also well-positioned with Limo Butte to support the United States critical minerals strategy as the Project has both gold and antimony, and both commodities have reached all-time high prices this year. There is a clear commitment from government officials to advance high-quality, domestic, mineral projects and Limo Butte is well-advanced with its significant near-surface, oxide gold-antimony mineralization and large geological database . We are also progressing another key milestone, which is the Phase II metallurgical testwork on the gold-antimony metallurgical flowsheet building on our positive results from Phase I. All of these various work programs will help us rapidly demonstrate the gold-antimony potential at Limo Butte as we progress the asset to the next stages of project development with the objective of playing a key part in the mandate to create a vertically integrated, U.S. antimony supply chain .’

Limo Butte – Updated Geological Model Summary
The Devonian Pilot Shale (‘Pilot Shale’, ‘Pilot’) is the principal local host to Carlin-type mineralization at Limousine Butte. At Limousine Butte, positive gold grades commonly coincide with silicification and jasperoid breccias within the Pilot Shale, an alteration style also observed where elevated antimony is reported.

NevGold’s 2021–2025 work included integrating historical drilling, new mapping, and surface sampling which produced an updated district model and refined property-wide controls on mineralization. At Resurrection Ridge , Devonian–Silurian dolomite is exposed immediately east of known gold-antimony mineralization. Earlier explorers inferred that the overlying Pilot Shale had been eroded in this area, and they did not test eastward, despite shallow high-grade intercepts in the easternmost holes drilled at Resurrection Ridge. The new model indicates the older dolomite was thrust over the prospective Pilot Shale unit, creating structural preparation and a fluid trap that preserves the favorable host at depth, the classic architecture for a Carlin-type system.

Hole LB25-002 , the first test of this new NevGold geological model, collared in dolomite, passed through the upper thrust plate, and intersected gold and antimony at multiple horizons within the Pilot Shale. This drillhole result validates the model and materially expands the potential mineralization footprint: the preserved Pilot Shale extends more than one kilometer east of prior drilling at Resurrection Ridge.

Figure 6 – Comparison of historical geological model (left) and new NevGold geological model (right) outlining the thesis that the older dolomite unit was thrust over the prospective Pilot Shale unit. The preserved Pilot Shale unit extends more than 1 kilometer east of prior drilling at Resurrection Ridge. To view image please click here

Property-wide, the updated model outlines multiple Au–Sb target corridors that track outcrops and projected subsurface positions of the Pilot Shale, where repeated faulting and thrusting provided fluid pathways and focused mineralization. NevGold’s 2025 drill program continues to test these high-priority targets.

Historical records within the project boundary document two small-scale antimony prospects—the Nevada Antimony Mine and the Lage Antimony Prospect (Figure 1). The Nevada Antimony Mine extracted stibnite (Sb₂S₃) from a hydrothermal breccia via shallow pits; the Lage prospect similarly reports limited antimony production. Complementing these records, rock-chip sampling from the Golden Butte pit (Brigham Young University thesis) returned numerous assays exceeding 1% Sb in jasperoid breccias, with several over 5% Sb , including a sample grading 9.6% Sb with visible stibnite and stibiconite ( BYU Thesis Report ).

Together, these datasets support a district-scale interpretation in which thrust repetition preserves the Pilot Shale at depth east of Resurrection Ridge and focuses Au–Sb mineralization along structurally prepared horizons, establishing multiple high-priority targets for step-out drilling and follow-up work.

US Executive Order – Announced March 20, 2025
The Company is pleased to report the sweeping Executive Order to strengthen American mineral production and reduce U.S. reliance on foreign nations for its mineral supply . Antimony (Sb) has been identified as an important ‘Critical Mineral’ in the United States essential for national security, clean energy, and technology applications, yet no domestically mined supply currently exists.

The Executive Order invokes the use of the Defense Production Act as part of a broad United States (‘US’) Government effort to expand domestic minerals production on national security grounds. As it relates to project permitting, the Order states that it will ‘identify priority projects that can be immediately approved or for which permits can be immediately issued, and take all necessary or appropriate actions…to expedite and issue the relevant permits or approvals.’ Furthermore, the Order includes provisions to accelerate access to private and public capital for domestic projects, including the creation of a ‘dedicated mineral and mineral production fund for domestic investments’ under the Development Finance Corporation (‘DFC’).

This decisive action by the US Government highlights the urgent need to expand domestic minerals output to support supply chain security in the United States. This important Order will help revitalize domestic mineral production by improving the permitting process and providing financial support to qualifying domestic projects.

Importance of Antimony
Antimony is considered a ‘Critical Mineral’ by the United States based on the U.S. Geological Survey’s 2022 list (U.S.G.S. (2022)). ‘Critical Minerals’ are metals and non-metals essential to the economy and national security. Antimony is utilized in all manners of military applications, including the manufacturing of armor piercing bullets, night vision goggles, infrared sensors, precision optics, laser sighting, explosive formulations, hardened lead for bullets and shrapnel, ammunition primers, tracer ammunition, nuclear weapons and production, tritium production, flares, military clothing, and communication equipment. Other uses include technology (semi-conductors, circuit boards, electric switches, fluorescent lighting, high quality clear glass and lithium-ion batteries) and clean-energy storage.

Globally, approximately 90% of the world’s current antimony supply is produced by China, Russia, and Tajikistan. Beginning on September 15, 2024, China, which is responsible for nearly half of all global mined antimony output and dominates global refinement and processing, announced that it will restrict antimony exports. In December-2024, China explicitly restricted antimony exports to the United States citing its dual military and civilian uses, which further exacerbated global supply chain concerns. (Lv, A. and Munroe, T. (2024)) The U.S. Department of Defense (‘DOD’) has designated antimony as a ‘Critical Mineral’ due to its importance in national security, and governments are now prioritizing domestic production to mitigate supply chain disruptions. Projects exploring antimony sources in North America play a key role in addressing these challenges.

Perpetua Resources Corp. (‘Perpetua’) has the most advanced domestic gold-antimony project in the United States. Perpetua’s project, known as Stibnite, is located in Idaho approximately 130 km northeast of NevGold’s Nutmeg Mountain and Zeus projects. Positive advancements at Stibnite including the technical development and permitting has led to US$75 million in Department of Defense (‘DOD’) awards, and over $1.8 billion in indicative financing from the Export Import Bank of the United States (‘US EXIM’) ( see Perpetua Resources News Release from April 8, 2024 ) (Perpetua Resources. (2025))

Blue Sky Completes Geophysical Survey at Amarillo Grande Uranium Project & Identifies Anomaly at Ivana Gap Target for Drill Testing

Investing 8 Mins Read

TSX Venture Exchange: BSK
Frankfurt Stock Exchange: MAL2
OTCQB Venture Market (OTC): BKUCF

Blue Sky Uranium Corp. (TSXV: BSK,OTC:BKUCF), (FSE: MAL2), (OTC: BKUCF) ‘Blue Sky’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to announce that the Company has completed an induced polarization (pole-dipole electrical tomography (‘ET’)) geophysical survey at the Ivana Gap target, located between the Company’s Ivana Deposit and Ivana Central target within the Amarillo Grande Uranium-Vanadium Project, Río Negro Province, Argentina (Figure 1). The properties hosting the Ivana Gap and Ivana Central targets are held by Blue Sky via its 100% owned subsidiary, Minera Cielo Azul S.A. (‘MCA’).

The single line ET survey has delineated a 1,400-metre wide chargeability anomaly at the Ivana Gap target, approximately 30 to 60 metres below surface, that is interpreted to relate to the northerly extension of the REDOX front trend related to the Ivana Uranium-Vanadium deposit (Figure 2). Its position, midway between the Ivana Deposit and Ivana Central, supports the interpretation of a continuous redox front trend linking these two targets. The results highlight Ivana Gap as a key area for follow-up exploration.

Nikolaos Cacos, Blue Sky President & CEO commented, ‘Geophysical surveys have proven highly effective at Amarillo Grande, first guiding our discoveries in 2017 and now advancing our work at Ivana Gap. The new ET survey highlights an intriguing anomaly suggesting we could find mineralization extending to the north of the Ivana Deposit in this area. We look forward to testing this prospective target with our next phase of exploration drilling.’

The objective of the ET survey was to refine targets for drilling by tracing the subsurface extent of the organic-rich sandstone/REDOX front between the Ivana Deposit and the Ivana Central target. The results of this geophysical survey will help guide part of an upcoming diamond drill program that is now being planned and is scheduled to commence in the fourth quarter of 2025.

The geophysical and drilling programs described herein are being funded by Ivana Minerales S.A. (‘IMSA‘) the joint venture company (‘JVCO‘) established to advance the Ivana Uranium-Vanadium Project. Under the terms of the definitive agreement announced on December 2, 2024 IMSA has the exclusive right and option (‘Call Option‘) to acquire up to a 100% interest in certain exploration targets (‘Exploration Targets‘) at Amarillo Grande. To exercise this right, IMSA must incur certain funding obligations over the six-year term of the Call Option, pay the relevant option price pursuant to the formula set out in the Call Option, and grant to MCA a 2% royalty on all Exploration Targets acquired under the Call Option.

Geophysical Program Detail

The ET survey at Ivana Gap was conducted by Geofisica Argentina S.A. using a pole-dipole array with 15 m electrode spacing. The survey used an Iris ELREC PRO 10-channel receiver (time-domain) and a VIP-5000 transmitter.

The program consisted of a single 5 kilometre line covering the central portion of the prospect, subparallel to the majority of lines from previous surveys at Ivana Central (Section L1) and at the Ivana deposit (Section Ivana VIII) (see Figure 2). The results show a broad chargeability anomaly over 1400m in width that is interpreted as the REDOX front horizon signature. Additionally, smaller chargeability anomalies are observed toward the eastern (right-hand) portion of the pseudo-section. These appear either deeper in the profile or as isolated subsurface highs. The main anomaly lies along the projected northwest trend extending from the Ivana Deposit in the south, northwest towards Ivana Central, where reduced carbonaceous alteration has been confirmed in drillhole cuttings.

Many of the historical ET geophysical lines over the Ivana deposits were either not processed for chargeability or did not detect significant anomalies. However, a clear 600m wide chargeability anomaly was observed on line Ivana VIII that was completed on the northern flank of the Ivana deposit, as shown in Figure 2.
