Recent news has been dominated by detailed updates from the Wedge Project, where Nine Mile Metals reports completion of multiple drill holes in a Wedge Western Extension Drill Program and the confirmation of zones of massive copper-bearing sulphides (VMS – Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag-Au). Releases include descriptions of visible chalcopyrite, bornite and covellite in drill core, as well as tables of certified assay results and XRF data showing high-grade copper values from surface and pre-drill sampling programs.
Investors following VMSXF news can also find announcements on drill rig mobilization, exploration planning, and private placement financings that fund drilling and related exploration work on the company’s New Brunswick critical minerals projects. Technical news items describe sampling protocols, analytical methods at laboratories such as ALS Global and Actlabs, and the use of geophysical modeling and downhole geophysics to refine targets.
This news feed is useful for readers tracking how Nine Mile Metals advances its copper-focused and polymetallic VMS exploration programs, interprets new geological data, and allocates capital across its Bathurst Mining Camp projects over time.
Nine Mile Metals (OTC: VMSXF) reported completion of drill hole DDH-WD-25-02 on December 3, 2025, with the hole reaching 203 m depth and a follow-up hole DDH-WD-25-02B underway.
DDH-WD-25-02, collared on the same pad as WD-25-01 at azimuth 310° and dip -50°, intersected two zones of visible, massive copper-bearing VMS sulphides at 139 m and 155 m (approximate true width 20 m), expanding the mineralized lens about 50 m west along strike. Core was logged, photographed, cut and 55 sections were submitted to Actlabs for base and precious metal analysis including antimony.
Nine Mile Metals (OTC: VMSXF) completed drill hole DDH WD-25-01 at the Wedge Western Extension program on November 26, 2025 and is progressing on DDH WD-25-02. WD-25-01 intersected approximately 22.40 metres true width of massive copper-bearing VMS (Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag-Au) in Target Plate 1 and a second sulphide zone in Target Plate 2.
A total of 65 core sample sections were identified for base and precious metal assays (including antimony) to be analyzed by Actlabs Fredericton. Core has been logged, photographed, cut and prepared for assay; WD-25-02 was drilled from the same pad to test the plate ~40 metres further west along strike.
Nine Mile Metals (OTC: VMSXF) reported Phase 3 portable XRF results from 18 ore samples at the Wedge copper‑gold project, Bathurst Mining Camp, New Brunswick on November 5, 2025. Highlights include a top XRF reading of 26.14% Cu and 1.03% Sb (sample 280461) and visible covellite in samples 280461 and 280463. Of 18 ore samples, 9 returned >=14.22% Cu. Multiple samples from the proposed Upper Zone western extension averaged high copper values (see Table 1).
All Phase 3 samples were forwarded to Actlabs (Fredericton) for certified assays of Ag and Au; the XRF program used an Olympus Vanta 50 with two standards (OREAS622, CDN-BL-10) and triplicate readings per sample. Drill targeting and technical interpretation are underway with planned Apex-designed holes to test identified lenses and depth extensions below 150 m.
Nine Mile Metals (OTC: VMSXF) announced mobilization of an Orbit Garant YS2000 skid-mounted drill rig for the Wedge copper-gold drill program. The rig is enroute from Sudbury and is expected at Orbit Garant's Dieppe facility on Nov 3, 2025 for servicing and winterization, with onsite arrival in Bathurst targeted for Nov 10, 2025.
The program will test the newly targeted western extension and depth of the deposit using up to 7 drill holes (5 Upper Zone, 2 Lower Zone) modelled by Apex Geoscience. All holes will be capped for downhole BHEM geophysics and integrated into the company's 3D live geological, geophysical and drillhole models.
Orbit Garant is ECOLOGO accredited and operates a large fleet (~185 rigs) with over 1,000 employees, supporting the campaign's execution.

Nine Mile Metals (OTCQB: VMSXF) reported Phase 2 portable XRF sampling from the upcoming northwestern drill area at the Wedge VMS Project, Bathurst, New Brunswick, on October 15, 2025. 35 ore samples were analyzed by an Olympus Vanta 50 XRF and averaged from three readings each.
Key highlights: highest XRF copper 17.41% Cu; 16 of 35 samples ≥4% Cu; 24 of 35 samples ≥3% Cu; many samples were >90% sulphides and predominately Cu-rich. Samples have been forwarded to ALS Global for certified assays (Au/Ag pending). The company plans drill testing, including 7 proposed apex holes to test a western extension and depth below 150 m to ~300 m.
