Adyton Resources Corporation (TSXV: ADY,OTC:ADYRF) (“Adyton” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce the formal engagement of world-class geological consulting group, Global Ore Discovery (“Global Ore”). The Company has engaged Global Ore to collaboratively advance a high-priority integrated technical exploration program by providing expert oversight and targeting strategies. This strategic collaboration leverages Global Ore’s deep epithermal and porphyry expertise with Adyton’s enhanced in-house technical capacity, including Dr. Erin Johns as an Expert Consultant.
STRATEGIC RATIONALE AND INITIATIVE HIGHLIGHTS
The engagement with Global Ore, a globally recognized leader in defining and optimising potential for exploration success in mineral systems, provides immediate high-level technical validation and an accelerated path to discovery from integrated analysis and interpretation of vectors to potential gold-copper mineralisation:
Tim Crossley, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
“Engaging Global Ore Discovery marks the next significant expansion of our discovery efforts at Feni Island. This is a deliberate shift from Adyton’s initial focus on near resource drilling to a more aggressive program; exploring for resource expansion at Kabang while we also accelerate an exciting strategic approach to evaluation of multiple compelling epithermal gold prospects and targeting of large-scale concealed copper-gold porphyry mineralization within a “Whole of Island” district scale thinking. Global Ore will assist Adyton’s team in accelerating this expanded exploration strategy.”

Note: the footprint of Lihir ore body can fit within the footprint of the currently identified target areas, highlighting the ability for Feni to be able to host a Tier 1 deposit.

Global Ore Discovery: Engagement Objectives
This key consulting initiative is designed to support a multi-faceted exploration strategy at the Feni Gold-Copper Project, including: i) optimising drill targeting for resource expansion at the current drill program underway at Kabang; ii) hone-in on a number of known epithermal gold prospects for drill testing, and; iii) assess the potential for concealed porphyry-related copper-gold mineralization across the island, building on known porphyry targets such as Danmagal. This builds on Adyton’s success at Kabang while fast-tracking and advancing our understanding of new gold-copper targets both adjacent to and outside of the Kabang resource footprint (as we understand it today).
Global Ore Discovery will deploy personnel on site, provide integrated targeting for optimal drill hole placement, as well as, deliver strategic advice and insights to enable Adyton to zero in on the best targets faster and maximise the potential of Adyton’s aggressive “whole of island” exploration strategy at its 100% controlled Feni Au-Cu project.
Global Ore Discovery: Track Record
Global Ore Discovery is a highly experienced geological consulting team with extensive knowledge of many of the world’s premier porphyry and epithermal belts in the Americas, Australasia, and Central Asia, where Global Ore, and its principal consultants, have a track record of directly contributing to a number of high value gold, silver and copper discoveries, including Batu Hija PCD and Toka Tindung District, Indonesia, and brownfield expansion of the Wafi Golpu Resource in Papua New Guinea.
Global Ore’s objective is to integrate leading edge exploration technologies with solid boots on the ground geological experience to deliver innovative pragmatic exploration outcomes and strategic advice focused on discovery and value building for the Adyton exploration team and the Company’s shareholders.
Go-Forward Work Program and Next Steps (short term news catalysts)
The Global Ore engagement is active and focused on a number of immediate deliverables expected by 1Q26:
Adyton is committed to providing regular updates as the work program is executed and stages are finalized and outcomes are achieved.
About the Feni Gold-Copper Project
The Feni Project is 100% owned by Adyton and is a key asset in Adyton’s portfolio, located in a highly prospective region of Papua New Guinea on the Lihir Island chain known for world-class gold-copper deposits, including Lihir (owned and operated by Newmont). The Company has confirmed significant gold-copper mineralization at Feni, with a focus on expanding its existing resource and identifying new high-grade targets.
