Gladiator Metals Corp. provided an update on drilling at the Whitehorse Copper Project with drilling targeting significant widths of unmined, copper-gold skarns over more than 700m of strike at the historic Chiefs Trend. Drilling at Middle Chief & Big Chief Prospects: Assay results returned from 20 holes, 3,581m (LCG-001-005, LCG-007-008, LCG009, LCG-009D1, LCG-009D2, LCG-010 and LCG-010D1) at the Chiefs Trend confirm the extensive high-grade mineralization highlighted by Gladiator's data compilation of historical drilling.

Mineralization remains open in all directions with some holes finishing in high-grade copper and gold mineralization due to difficult ground conditions. Copper - gold mineralization highlighted from these assay returns includes: LCG-009: 11m at 1.67% Cu and 0.63 g/t Au from 194m; LCG-009D1: 20.44m at 2.17% Cu and 0.34 g/t Au from 221.6m to EOH.LCG-009D2: 8.7m at 2.06% Cu and 0.13 g/t Au from 167m; LCG-009D2: 8.7m at 2.06% Cu and 0.13 g/t Au from 167m. In addition, significant exploration upside remains with extensive widths of anomalous copper intersected in initial 200m spaced step out drilling north of the known Middle Chief Mineralization.

Drillhole LCG-010D1 intersected significant anomalous copper (Plus 40m > 0.1 Cu%, including 1m at 1.28% Cu and 1.61 g/t Au) that is interpreted as being immediately distal to the mineralized trend. Gladiator plans to complete Down-Hole Electromagnetic (DHEM) prior to recommencing drilling targeting extensions to the known Middle Chief Mineralization. These results confirm mineralization to be associated with magnetite alteration as indicated in the recently completed drone-borne magnetic survey where magnetic anomalism is reported over 500 meters at Middle Chief extending into Big Chief.

These results are in addition to analytical results reported on March 5, 2024, including: LCG-003: Recovered core at 2.71% Cu and 1.39 g/t Au within a 13.75m mineralized zone from 256m to end of hole (approximately 270 m) that failed in 0.25m at 2.76% Cu and 0.28 g/t Au; LCG-001D1: 22m at1.41% Cu and 0.28 g/t Au from 208m; LCG-001: 6m at 1.56 % Cu and 1.06 g/t Au from 213m and 16m at 1.29% Cu and 0.61 g/t Au from 249m; LCG-001D2: 10m at 0.83% Cu and 0.19 g/t Au from 62m, 4m at 1.03 Cu and 0.19 g/t Au from 84m and 10m at 1.35% Cu and 0.51g/t Au from 196m. Drilling has now defined unmined, near surface magnetite-copper skarn mineralization over more than 600m's of strike north of the historical mining operations at Little Chief.
