Integral Metals Provides Update on 2025 Drilling at the KAP Project
Integral Metals (OTC:ITGLF) has initiated its 2025 diamond drilling program at the KAP Project in Northwest Territories. The first hole has been completed to a depth of 86 meters, with the second hole currently in progress. The company plans to execute approximately six diamond drill holes in total.
The drilling campaign aims to test high-priority extensions of historically drilled and trenched high-grade lead-zinc zones near the Main Showing area, while also evaluating gallium and germanium distribution in sphalerite host rock. The program features a flexible, decision-based drilling sequence, with initial results guiding subsequent targeting strategies.
Integral Metals (OTC:ITGLF) ha avviato il suo programma di perforazione diamantina 2025 al Progetto KAP nei Territori del Nord-Ovest. Il primo foro è stato completato fino a una profondità di 86 metri, mentre il secondo foro è attualmente in corso. La società prevede di realizzare complessivamente circa sei fori diamantati.
La campagna di perforazione mira a testare estensioni ad alta priorità delle zone storicamente perforate e scavate di piombo-zinco ad alto tenore, nelle vicinanze dell'area Main Showing, valutando inoltre la distribuzione di gallio e germanio nelle rocce ospiti contenenti sfalerite. Il programma prevede una sequenza di perforazione flessibile e decisionale, con i primi risultati che guideranno gli obiettivi successivi.
Integral Metals (OTC:ITGLF) ha iniciado su programa de perforación diamantina 2025 en el proyecto KAP en los Territorios del Noroeste. El primer sondeo se completó hasta una profundidad de 86 metros, y el segundo se encuentra en progreso. La compañía planea ejecutar un total de aproximadamente seis sondeos diamantinos.
La campaña de perforación tiene como objetivo probar extensiones de alta prioridad de zonas históricamente perforadas y excavadas de plomo y zinc de alto grado cerca del área Main Showing, así como evaluar la distribución de galio y germanio en las rocas hospedantes de esfalerita. El programa contempla una secuencia de perforación flexible y basada en decisiones, en la que los resultados iniciales orientarán la selección de objetivos posteriores.
Integral Metals (OTC:ITGLF)는 북서 준주에 있는 KAP 프로젝트에서 2025년 다이아몬드 시추 프로그램을 시작했습니다. 첫 번째 시추공은 86미터 깊이까지 완료되었고, 두 번째 시추공은 현재 진행 중입니다. 회사는 총 약 6개 다이아몬드 시추공을 계획하고 있습니다.
이번 시추 캠페인은 Main Showing 인근의 과거 시추 및 트렌치로 확인된 고등급 납-아연 지대의 우선 연장 구간을 시험하는 것을 목표로 하며, 동시에 스팔레라이트(황화아연)를 포함하는 암석에서의 갈륨 및 게르마늄 분포를 평가합니다. 이 프로그램은 초기 결과에 따라 후속 타깃을 결정하는 유연한 의사결정 기반 시추 순서를 특징으로 합니다.

La campagne de forage vise à tester des extensions prioritaires de zones plomb-zinc à haute teneur, historiquement forées et tranchées, près de la zone Main Showing, tout en évaluant la répartition du gallium et du germanium dans les roches hôtes contenant de la sphalérite. Le programme adopte une séquence de forage flexible et basée sur la prise de décision, les premiers résultats orientant les cibles ultérieures.
Integral Metals (OTC:ITGLF) hat sein Diamantbohrprogramm 2025 beim KAP-Projekt in den Northwest-Territorien gestartet. Das erste Bohrloch wurde bis zu einer Tiefe von 86 Metern niedergebracht, das zweite Bohrloch ist derzeit in Arbeit. Das Unternehmen plant insgesamt rund sechs Diamantbohrungen.
Die Bohrkampagne zielt darauf ab, hochprioritäre Erweiterungen historisch bebohrter und gegrabener hochgradiger Blei-Zink-Zonen in der Nähe des Main-Showing-Bereichs zu prüfen und gleichzeitig die Verteilung von Gallium und Germanium in sphaleritführendem Gestein zu untersuchen. Das Programm sieht eine flexible, entscheidungsorientierte Bohrfolge vor, bei der erste Ergebnisse die weiteren Zielsetzungen steuern.

- Program designed to test extensions of historically high-grade lead-zinc zones
- Additional potential from gallium and germanium evaluation in host rock
- Early stage exploration with no confirmed mineralization results yet
Initial Drilling Underway at KAP Project with Focus on Key Mineralization Zones
CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Integral Metals Corp. (CSE: INTG | OTC: ITGLF | FSE: ZK9) (the “Company” or “Integral”) is pleased to provide an update on its 2025 diamond drilling program at the KAP Project in the Northwest Territories. As previously announced on July 28, 2025, the Company commenced mobilization for the program, and operations are now fully underway with drilling of the first hole complete to a depth of 86 meters, and the second hole currently in-progress.
The Company plans to complete a staged program of approximately six diamond drill holes. The campaign is designed to test high-priority extensions of historically drilled and trenched high-grade lead-zinc zones surrounding the Main Showing area, and to evaluate the distribution of gallium and germanium within sphalerite host rock.
The first pad location has been selected to test the central portion of the Main Showing to provide an early benchmark for mineralization and geometry. Additional holes are tentatively planned to step out, with the objective of refining the understanding of the Main Showing’s dimensions and lateral continuity.
The second pad has been designed to evaluate the mineralization along and to the north of historical hole F-96-05. The holes from this location will attempt to extend the strike to the north and investigate the contrasting results between historical holes F-96-05 (a wide anomalous zone) and F-96-06 (which missed mineralization), probing alteration patterns, lithological changes, fractures, and structural features.
Paul Sparkes, CEO of Integral Metals, commented: “With drilling now underway at the KAP Project, we are pleased to be advancing into this next phase of exploration. The program has been designed to provide valuable early insights into the mineralized system while also testing step-out targets that could expand the known zones at the Main Showing.”
The drilling sequence has been designed to be flexible and decision-based, with results from early holes guiding subsequent targeting. Further updates will be provided as drilling continue.
