Yukon Metals Corp (OTC: YMMCF) has unveiled its 2025 exploration plans for the 720-hectare Star River Project near Ross River, Yukon. The program includes a 4,000-meter diamond drilling campaign focusing on the F2 zone, targeting high-grade silver and gold surface samples that align with strong gravity and electromagnetic anomalies.
The exploration strategy encompasses three main components: the diamond drilling program, a geophysical gravity infill survey with rock-chip sampling, and a high-resolution UAV magnetic survey. Previous sampling in 2024 yielded impressive results, with multiple samples exceeding 1,000 g/t silver and gold up to 101 g/t. Notable surface samples reached as high as 10,936 g/t silver.
The primary drilling focus will be on a high-priority target in the southern section, where a strong gravity anomaly extends approximately 800 meters north-south, coinciding with a Time-Domain Electromagnetic high near the historic F2 and Canyon showings.
Yukon Metals Corp (CSE: YMC, OTCQB: YMMCF) has announced its 2025 exploration plans for the AZ project, a 11,755-hectare property located 36km south of Beaver Creek, Yukon. The program includes 2,000 meters of diamond drilling at Chair Mountain, targeting a 1.2-kilometer-long gossan zone.
The exploration will follow up on the Nutzotin skarn mineral occurrence, where historic trench samples showed up to 10.3% copper, and test a chalcopyrite-bearing vein system. The company will conduct airborne geophysical surveys using magnetic and VTEM technology along the 5km Chair-to-Nutzotin trend.
Previous prospecting at Chair Mountain yielded rock chip samples with up to 3.49% copper. The company has identified a high-priority target area extending 2.5 kilometers toward the Nutzotin mineral occurrence, with hematite alteration suggesting potential for a porphyry-style system.

Yukon Metals Corp (YMMCF) has announced significant findings from its maiden exploration program at the AZ property in Yukon. The company discovered high-grade copper mineralization at Chair Mountain, with values reaching up to 3.49% Cu in surface sampling.
The exploration, conducted in September 2024, focused on the 11,755-hectare AZ project, located 36km south of Beaver Creek. A prominent 1.2km-long gossan zone of rust-colored, iron-stained rock revealed consistent copper mineralization. Of 60 rock-chip samples collected, 18 showed significant copper content ranging from 0.12-3.49%.
The company plans to advance drilling at three key projects: the Star River gold-silver property, the Birch copper-gold property, and the AZ property. The Chair Mountain Project, situated 6km from the Alaska Highway, is part of YMC's broader portfolio spanning 42,500 hectares across seventeen properties in the Yukon.
Yukon Metals Corp (YMMCF) has announced results from geophysical surveys at its Birch Property in Yukon. The company completed eight Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) and Induced Polarization (IP) surveys over the eastern portion of a copper and gold anomaly.
The surveys identified several high-priority drill targets and aligned with previously identified soil anomalies of up to 0.24% Cu and 0.99 g/t Au spanning 1400 meters, as well as rock chip sampling showing values up to 2.42% Cu and 14.1 g/t Au. The geophysical data revealed anomalies below surface, interpreted as changes in rock type and sulphide mineralization in skarn horizons.
The Birch Property, spanning 7,000 hectares and located 65 km northeast of Burwash Landing, is one of seventeen properties held by Yukon Metals across 42,500 hectares in the Yukon. The company plans to proceed with drilling, targeting mineralized skarn horizons.
Yukon Metals Corp. (YMMCF) has announced significant findings from gravimetric geophysical fieldwork at its Star River Project in Yukon. The survey revealed two prominent 800m-long parallel anomalies in the southern portion, correlating with electromagnetic anomalies and historical high-grade gold and silver samples. Notable discoveries include surface samples of up to 101 g/t gold and multiple samples exceeding 1,000 g/t silver, with one sample reaching 10,936 g/t silver. The gravity survey, completed over a 3x4 kilometer area, identified multiple high-density zones associated with historical showings, particularly at the Key 35 showing, suggesting substantial mineralization potential throughout the property.
Yukon Metals (CSE: YMC) (OTCQB: YMMCF) is advancing exploration initiatives focused on developing high-grade copper, gold, and silver resources in Canada.

Yukon Metals Corp (YMMCF) has expanded its Birch Property through additional claim staking, increasing the project area from 2,285 to 7,008 hectares. The expansion follows successful 2024 exploration results, including a 1,400-meter copper-gold soil anomaly grading over 0.2% copper and up to 0.99 g/t gold. Rock-chip samples revealed impressive values up to 2.42% copper and 14.1 g/t gold in mineralized skarn zones. The company aims to conduct comprehensive geological mapping, sampling, and geophysical surveying to maximize discovery potential in the expanded area.
Yukon Metals Corp. has announced significant findings from its 2024 reconnaissance fieldwork at the Star River Project in Yukon. Aurora Geosciences completed ground-based Gravity and Time Domain Electromagnetic (TDEM) surveys, identifying four prominent conductive zones. Three zones coincide with historic mineral showings and 2024 high-grade rock chip samples at Saddle, Canyon/F2, and F3 locations, with samples featuring up to 101 grams per tonne gold.
The survey covered 20.6-line kilometers with 100m line spacing and included three large fixed ground loops at 500m x 500m size. A LiDAR Digital Elevation Model analysis revealed bedrock structures, with anomalous silver and gold samples following prominent N-S lineaments near the F2 and F3 showings.
