Extremely encouraging results from the new visible gold zone at Sunbeam. #FCM I have been commenting for a while that this project is really coming together. Board and technical team very pleased with the progress being made.
First Class Metals reports further high-grade gold results at the Roy northeast extension, within the Sunbeam Gold Property in Ontario, Canada. Following the exceptional 32,100 g/t gold discovery, new assay results strengthen confidence in the extent of gold mineralisation along the Roy trend. ๐Ÿ”Ž Key Highlights: ๐ŸŸก 8 grab samples exceeding 5 g/t gold, with a peak of 17.3 g/t. ๐ŸŸก Gold mineralisation confirmed over approximately 300 metres of strike, with further visible gold identified. ๐ŸŸก Significant potential for further extension, with the discovery located 1.1 km northeast of the historic Roy shafts and the zone remaining open in both directions. What's next? Preparations are underway for further geological mapping and systematic channel sampling at Roy, while drilling at Pettigrew is planned to commence shortly. ๐Ÿ“ข Check out the full announcement and join in with the conversation at: firstclassmetalsplc.com/linkโ€ฆ #FirstClassMetals #FCM #LSEFCM #GoldExploration #Sunbeam #Roy #Pettigrew #Ontario #MineralExploration #OTC The photo below shows visible gold from the Roy northeast extension, with a grab sample returning an exceptional 32,100 g/t gold, approximately 1.1 km northeast of the historic Roy drilling area.

First Class Metals has announced an exceptional gold discovery at its Sunbeam Gold Property in Ontario, Canada, with a grab sample from outcrop yielding over 30,000 g/t Au, or 3% gold by weight, located approximately 1.1 km northeast along strike from historic Roy shafts. This significant find, identified through an integrated exploration model, validates the company's geological approach and extends the known area of high-grade mineralization along the interpreted Roy trend.

Sometimes, a fallen tree reveals more than you expect. CEO Marc Sale is roughly 1 km northeast of the Pettigrew shaft, where the team has taken him to another area identified through soil sampling. And, quite fortuitously, a fallen tree has opened up a new window into the geology. With its roots pulling back the overburden, the ground beneath has been exposed, revealing intense shearing and quartz veining - exactly the kind of geological features that can make an exploration team stop and take a closer look. The team has taken samples from the area, and thereโ€™s plenty of intrigue around what they might show. Now we wait for the assays. Weโ€™ll share the results when theyโ€™re back.

CEO Marc Sale is out in the field with Brenden from EGS, heading into the Roy property for a closer look at the geology. The side-by-side can only take them so far. From there, itโ€™s a 10-minute trek through some fairly tough terrain to reach the moored boat - with Marc taking on the easy job of carrying the life jackets, while Brenden gets to manhandle the outboard! ๐Ÿ˜„ Once the boat is launched, itโ€™s across the lake towards the outcrop. And what a day for it - crisp autumn air, spectacular colours and perfect conditions for exploring. The journey is worth it. At the outcrop, the team finds some very interesting material to collect for assay, providing another useful piece of the geological picture and a positive lift for the exploration programme ahead. This is exploration in its most hands-on form - getting into the field, seeing the geology first-hand and building the understanding that shapes what comes next.

๐Ÿ”” First Class Metals has reported significant progress in its 2026 exploration activities across its Ontario properties, with its newly developed geological model guiding the identification of visible gold in a grab sample approximately 1,100 metres northeast of the Roy shafts - a significant step-out from the area of visible gold previously identified through drilling. โžก๏ธThe Pettigrew property is advancing towards drill targeting with completed infill channel sampling, structural mapping, and VLF and soil surveys, with a proposed 1,000-meter drill program planned. โžก๏ธExploration at Roy has extended its footprint, and a three-year exploration permit has been granted for the Sunbeam property, which is also undergoing a drone survey with an AI collaboration LOI signed.
