Super Copper Announces Up to 5.0 g/t Gold Mineralization at the Castilla Project

• Gold values of up to 5.0 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) and up to 5.5% copper (Cu) have been obtained from historical rock grab samples.
• Gold mineralization is associated with quartz+carbonate veins with minor iron oxides and iron oxide-copper veins and related alteration identified during recent fieldwork.
• A total of 93 new rock samples have been collected in 2025 across priority zones for assay and geochemistry, with results expected in the coming weeks.
• The Company is expanding its surface program to further define the gold-copper relationship across multiple target areas at Castilla.

VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 10, 2025 /CNW/ - SUPER COPPER CORP. (CSE: CUPR) (OTCQB: CUPPF) (FSE: N60) ("Super Copper" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce the identification of gold mineralization within at least two generations of quartz+carbonate veins and the copper-bearing iron oxide system at its Castilla Project in northern Chile.

Initial rock sampling from historical workings and outcrops in late 2023 returned up to 5.0 grams per tonne (g/t) gold and 5.5% copper, confirming that gold is spatially associated with quartz-carbonate veins and with copper mineralization in quartz–magnetite vein systems hosted by altered diorite intrusives.

Zachary Dolesky, CEO of Super Copper, stated: "These early gold values are a significant addition to our exploration opportunity at Castilla. They confirm that our system carries both copper and precious metal potential, a key characteristic of some of Chile's most productive deposits. We're now expanding systematic sampling, with nearly 100 samples from Castilla already submitted for analysis to better define the scale and distribution of this gold-bearing system."

The Castilla Project, encompassing approximately 7,200 hectares across 25 exploration concessions, hosts a series of magnetite-bearing veins and quartz+carbonate veins containing copper oxides, iron oxides, and minor sulphides. Fieldwork has confirmed multiple zones of surface oxidation, magnetite veining, and visible copper mineralization associated with structural corridors trending nearly north-south and northwest. A total of 93 rock samples have been collected to date from a number of priority targets zones for assay and geochemistry, with results expected in the coming weeks.

Super Copper's ongoing work program includes detailed mapping, surface sampling, and ground magnetic surveys designed to integrate geological and geophysical data into a Phase I drill targeting model.

Quality Assurance and Control
Samples were analyzed at ALS Global Laboratories (Geochemistry Division) in Santiago, Chile (an ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited facility). Duplicates, blanks and standard reference materials (SRMs) are inserted where required and deemed appropriate. A secure chain of custody is maintained in transporting and storing of all samples. Gold was assayed using a fire assay with atomic emission spectrometry and gravimetric finish when required (+10 g/t Au). Rock chip samples from outcrop/bedrock are selective by nature and may not be representative of the mineralization hosted on the project.
