Argyle Resources (OTCQB: ARLYF) completed a 2,287 metre diamond-drilling campaign at the Lac Comporté Silica Project in Bas-Saint-Laurent, Quebec, in December 2025. The 23-day program averaged 104 metres per day despite winter weather and logistical constraints. Drilling targeted two WNW-trending, kilometre-scale quartzitic units with surface silica grades up to 98% SiO2. All NQ core is being prepared for laboratory assays, and a full suite of results is expected in early Q1 2026. Visual core logs show significant quartzitic intervals, but those visual estimates await laboratory verification.

Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - January 8, 2026) - Argyle Resources Corp. (CSE: ARGL) (OTCQB: ARLYF) (FSE: ME0) ("Argyle" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on its recently completed diamond-drilling campaign at the Lac Comporté Silica Project, located in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region of Quebec, Canada.

The 2025 program was executed efficiently over 23 days in December, averaging 104 metres per day despite challenging winter weather and logistical constraints for a total of 2,287 m. The campaign successfully targeted two WNW-trending quartzitic units previously identified as high-priority targets with surface grades reaching up to 98% SiO₂. All core samples are being prepared for submission to the laboratory, with a full suite of assay results expected in early Q1 2026.

The campaign successfully targeted two WNW-trending, kilometre-scale quartzitic units identified during the 2025 summer field program. These units exhibit metre-scale thicknesses and surface grades reaching up to 98% SiO₂. Preliminary visual inspections of the NQ-sized core indicate significant quartzitic intervals (Figure 2); however, these visual estimates are subject to laboratory verification.

Jeffrey Stevens, CEO of Argyle Resources commented, "We are extremely pleased with the successful completion of our 2025 drilling campaign at the Lac Comporté Silica Project. We look forward to sharing these results and continuing to build value for our shareholders and stakeholders in Quebec's Bas-Saint-Laurent region."
