🔎 One Project, Multiple Metals

An exploration property can hold potential for more than one mineral.

Vulcan Minerals’ Springdale / Colchester Project is located on the historic Springdale Peninsula, an area known for both copper and gold mineralization.

The project includes the Colchester, Pine Pond and Little Bay properties, where Vulcan is taking a multi-stage approach to evaluating the area’s copper and gold potential.

Different minerals can occur within the same geological environment, which is why exploration involves looking at the bigger picture. Mapping, sampling, geophysics and other geological information can all help build a better understanding of what may be beneath the surface.

For Vulcan, Springdale / Colchester remains the Company’s core project and an important part of its exploration strategy in Newfoundland and Labrador.

The People Behind Exploration

Exploration starts with the geology, but understanding what the rocks are telling us takes experience.

In the field, geologists examine rock types, structures, mineralization and other geological features that can provide clues about what may be happening beneath the surface.

That information is combined with mapping, sampling, geophysics and other exploration data to build a clearer picture of an area and help determine where further work may be warranted.

From examining an outcrop in the field to interpreting drill core and exploration data, geologists play an important role at every stage of the process.

It’s all part of turning observations in the field into informed exploration decisions.

🔎 PROJECT SPOTLIGHT: Carbonear

Vulcan Minerals’ Carbonear Project in eastern Newfoundland is being explored for its zinc and lead potential.

Years of fieldwork and historical exploration data have identified geological features and mineral signatures that make the area worth a closer look.

Most recently, Vulcan completed five drill holes at the project, with mineralization encountered in each hole. Preliminary examination of the drill core identified zinc and lead-bearing minerals, along with other sulphide minerals.

The results from each stage of exploration help us better understand what lies beneath the surface and where the next opportunities may be.

Why drill more than one hole?

One drill hole provides a window into the geology at a specific location, but mineral systems extend in three dimensions beneath the surface.

By drilling multiple holes at different locations, angles and depths, geologists can begin to understand how rock units, structures, alteration and mineralization may change across an exploration target.

Each hole adds another piece of geological information. Combined with mapping, geochemistry, geophysics and other exploration data, those results help build a clearer picture of what may be happening underground and where further exploration may be warranted.

In mineral exploration, every drill hole helps improve our understanding of the geological system.

30+ years of exploration. One province with plenty left to discover.

Since 1995, Vulcan Minerals has focused on identifying and advancing mineral opportunities in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Today, that experience is helping guide work at our core Springdale / Colchester Copper-Gold Project, located in a historic mining region with a history dating back to the late 1800s. Bringing together the Colchester, Pine Pond and Little Bay Mine projects, the area is being evaluated through a multi-stage approach using modern exploration technology.

The tools continue to evolve. The objective remains the same: follow the geology and uncover opportunity.

PROJECT SPOTLIGHT: Springdale / Colchester Copper-Gold

Vulcan's Springdale / Colchester property represents a key part of our exploration portfolio in Newfoundland and Labrador.

The project includes the Colchester, Pine Pond and Little Bay properties within an area with a long history of mineral exploration and mining.

By combining historical exploration information with modern geological methods, Vulcan continues to evaluate the area's copper and gold potential.

🍂 Happy Thanksgiving from Vulcan Minerals!

Today, we’re thankful for the people, partnerships and communities that continue to support mineral exploration and development across Newfoundland and Labrador.

Wishing everyone a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving with family and friends.

Once drill core is recovered, the work continues.

Geologists log the core to document its geological characteristics, identify areas of interest and select samples for laboratory analysis. Those results are interpreted alongside other geological and exploration data to determine next steps for the project.

Exploration is a process, and every stage adds another piece to the geological picture.

Atlas Salt represents an important chapter in Vulcan Minerals’ story and a world-class resource with long-term industrial potential.

Vulcan retains a 23.61% ownership interest as of June 30, 2026 in Atlas Salt Inc., along with a 3% Net Production Royalty on mineral licences covering the Great Atlantic Salt Project in western Newfoundland.

The project reflects the potential of advancing a strong exploration opportunity over time.

How does an exploration target become a drill target? It starts long before the drill arrives.

Geologists can combine historical records, geological mapping, geochemical sampling and geophysical data to identify areas of interest.

As those different layers of information come together, the exploration team can refine where further work, including drilling, may be warranted.

The drill is only one part of the exploration story.
