The Tillex deposit, discovered in 1973, has a historic non-compliant resource of 1,338,000 tonnes grading 1.56% copper.

Positive

• Strong copper mineralization results from recent drilling: up to 2.12% Cu over 92.05m
• Consistent high-grade intercepts across multiple drill holes
• Historical resource indicates significant copper presence (1.338M tonnes at 1.56% Cu)

Negative

• Historical resource estimate is non-43-101 compliant and cannot be relied upon

Thunder Bay, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - November 26, 2024) - Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) (FSE: M1C1) (the "Company" or Metals Creek) is pleased to announce that diamond drilling has commenced at the Tillex Copper Project located in Currie Township, 65 km east of Timmins, Ontario.

This program will continue to further define the structurally complex Tillex copper mineralization within areas of limited drilling as well as in the down dip direction and peripheral areas where the deposit is poorly understood.

In September (see MEK news release dated 05 September 2024), Metals Creek drilled:

• 63.9 Meters (m) of 1.94% Copper (Cu)and 10.22 g/t Silver (Ag) in diamond drill hole (DDH) TX 24-021. (see MEK news release dated 22 October 2024)

• 110m of 1.69% Cu and 7.05 g/t Ag in DDH 24-020 (see MEK news release dated 24 October 2024)

• 92.05 Meters of 2.12% Cu and 12.18 g/t Ag (see MEK news release dated 31 October 2024) in DDH 24-022 at the Tillex Copper Project.

Results from this program will be released once received and compiled.

The Tillex project is host to the Tillex copper deposit which was originally discovered in 1973 by Westmin Resources Ltd. A historic non 43-101 compliant near surface resource of 1,338,000 tonnes grading 1.56% Copper (Cu) was calculated in 1990 by Pacifica Resources Ltd (Source; Pacifica Resources Ltd., 2005-6 Canadian Mines Handbook, page 318). Mineralization is primarily as chalcopyrite with minor bornite and accessory lead, zinc and silver. However, management notes this calculation does not meet the standards as outlined in National Instrument 43-101, "Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects", and has not been independently validated or verified by the Corporation and should not be relied upon.

Michael MacIsaac, P.Geo and VP Exploration for the Corporation and a qualified person as defined in National Instrument 43-101, is responsible for this release, and supervised the preparation of the information forming the basis for this release.
