Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) has completed its previously announced diamond drilling program at the Tillex Copper Project, located 65 km east of Timmins, Ontario. The program consisted of 7 holes targeting near-surface mineralization to upgrade areas of drilling and expand the mineralized envelope.
The drilling intercepted chalcopyrite mineralization within mineralized graphitic argillites, dacites, and porphyry dikes, appearing as finely disseminated and stringer style copper mineralization. Core samples are currently being logged and cut, with results pending.
Additionally, the company has signed an Exploration Agreement with Apitipi Anicinapek Nation (AAN), aimed at fostering a cooperative relationship regarding the Tillex Project within AAN's territory. Subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, Metals Creek will issue 50,000 common shares to AAN.

Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) has provided an update on the Yellow Fox antimony, silver, and gold property through its option partner Lomiko Metals Inc. The property, located 10 km southwest of Glenwood NL, shows promising exploration potential with historic grab samples yielding up to 59.43g/t Au, 11.10% Sb, 7.00% Zn, 72.90g/t Ag, and 5.50% Pb in arsenopyrite-stibnite veins.
Lomiko has announced a two-phase work program for Spring 2025. Phase 1 includes a soil sampling program with approximately 700 samples across ten 250m spaced lines. Phase 2 will expand soil sampling coverage and include ground truthing of targets. The property shares geological similarities with the past-producing Beaver Brook antimony mine, located 25km southwest, featuring similar cross-cutting structural zones with intense carbonate alteration.
Metals Creek Resources Corp. (TSXV: MEK) has secured a diamond drill for its upcoming drilling program at the Tillex Copper Project, located 65 km east of Timmins, Ontario.

The program aims to define areas with drilling history and expand the current mineralized envelope. Previous drilling in December 2024 yielded significant results, with an intercept of 41.3m grading 1.51% Copper and 9.39g/t Silver. The new drilling campaign is scheduled to commence in mid-late March 2025, with results to be released upon completion and compilation.
Metals Creek Resources (TSXV: MEK) has announced significant drilling results from its Tillex Copper Project in Ontario, located 65 km east of Timmins. The program, completed in February 2025, comprised five diamond drill holes totaling 539.8m.
Key highlights include hole TX24-027 intersecting 41.3 meters of 1.51% copper and 9.39 g/t silver, and a second zone yielding 1.70% copper and 7.04 g/t silver over 13.95m. Hole TX24-028 returned impressive results of 1.87% copper and 4.81 g/t silver over 15.20m, including a higher-grade interval of 3.04% copper and 5.34 g/t silver over 8.00m.
