Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 19, 2026) - Nexcel Metals Corp. (CSE: NEXX) (OTCQB: NXXCF) (FSE: 2OH) ("Nexcel" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the successful completion of its airborne geophysical survey program at its Burnt Hill Tungsten Project located in New Brunswick, Canada. The survey was conducted by Xcalibur MPH (Canada) Ltd. utilizing the company's advanced HeliTEM® helicopter-borne Time Domain Electromagnetic ("TDEM") and magnetic system.
The airborne survey program covered approximately 1,755 line-kilometres across the Burnt Hill Project and was designed to identify conductive mineralization associated with tungsten-bearing systems and related intrusive structures at depth. The survey incorporated 100 metre line spacing with 1,000 metre tie lines and deployed a 21-metre transmitter loop HeliTEM system capable of detecting deep conductive bodies through low-noise receivers and long on-time waveform technology.

The Company also announces that it has engaged Condor North Consulting ULC ("Condor") to complete the processing, interpretation, and analysis of the airborne geophysical data collected by Xcalibur, along with historical geological and geophysical datasets from the Burnt Hill Project.
Condor will conduct a comprehensive analysis program integrating the newly acquired HeliTEM data with historical DIGHEM electromagnetic surveys, induced polarization ("IP") surveys, ground magnetic surveys, geological mapping, geochemical data, and historical drilling information. The objective of the program is to establish and refine a modern geophysical targeting model for Burnt Hill and prioritize high-quality drill targets for the Company's planned Phase 1 drill program.
Key components of Condor's analysis program include:
- Layered earth inversion processing of both DIGHEM and HeliTEM electromagnetic datasets;
- Derivation of conductivity parameters including AdTau conductivity analysis;
- Merging and advanced processing of airborne magnetic datasets to create a comprehensive magnetic interpretation model;
- 2D inversion and 3D modeling of historical induced polarization data;
- GeoInterp™ geological interpretation and structural analysis of the integrated geophysical dataset;
- Identification and ranking of conductive and structural targets associated with tungsten, molybdenum, and tin mineralization across the Burnt Hill property.
Condor's work is expected to generate a series of advanced targeting products including conductivity depth slices, interpreted structural models, ranked conductor maps, MultiPlot™ geophysical sections, GIS deliverables, and a final interpretive report to support drill targeting and future exploration planning.
Hugh Rogers, CEO of Nexcel Metals Corp., commented:
"The successful completion of the airborne survey represents another significant milestone in advancing the Burnt Hill Tungsten Project toward drilling. The high-resolution HeliTEM survey has provided Nexcel with a modern and extensive geophysical dataset over one of North America's most historically significant tungsten districts.
"We are also very pleased to engage Condor North Consulting, a highly respected geophysical consulting group with extensive expertise in advanced geophysical interpretation and mineral targeting. By integrating the new HeliTEM data with historical geophysical and geological datasets, we believe the Company will be in a strong position to identify and prioritize high-quality drill targets ahead of our proposed initial drill program."
