Calgary, Alberta--(Newsfile Corp. - June 25, 2025) - Argyle Resources Corp. (CSE: ARGL) (OTCQB: ARLYF) (FSE: ME0) ("Argyle" or the "Company" ) is pleased to announce the results of a comprehensive preliminary remote sensing survey for the Lac Comporté, Silica Project, located in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region of Quebec, Canada. This integrated study marks a significant milestone in identifying and prioritizing high-purity quartzite exploration targets across the company's claim block.

  • Extensive Satellite and Geochemical Survey:
    The Lac Comporté, project is part of a 33,000-square-kilometre area where Sentinel-2A shortwave infrared (SWIR) and visible near-infrared (VNIR) data were collected, collated and processed, as well as ASTER long-wave infrared (LWIR) analysis over 2,500 square kilometers of high-priority areas. False-colour composite images were used to assess vegetation health, burned areas, water, and urban zones, supporting both environmental monitoring and mineral exploration.
  • Integrated Exploration Approach:
    The project combined multispectral satellite imagery, gas surveys, gravity and magnetic data, and geological mapping to create a robust framework for exploration and target prioritization. Five gases-hydrogen, helium, radon, methane, and carbon dioxide-were mapped, with hydrogen showing the strongest spatial correlation with known quartzite outcrops and mapped faults. Gravity data and "gravity worms" were used to identify deep crustal structures potentially associated with fluid migration and mineralization.

  • Hydrogen as an Exploration Vector:
    Hydrogen gas anomalies were consistently detected and covered 76% of the claim block, indicating significant exploration potential. Deep hydrogen anomalies, mapped using adapted seismic imaging, suggest active migration pathways along regional faults, positioning hydrogen as a reliable vector for future silica and copper exploration on the property.

  • Advanced Mineral Mapping:
    SWIR and LWIR data identified 16 key minerals, including opal, chert, and quartz. Quadratic Discriminant Fingerprint Classification (QDFC) mapping outlined multiple high-priority silica targets within the claim block, with the most promising zones located west of the known silica outcrop and along key fault structures. Overlapping and contouring of these datasets refined priority target areas for further exploration.

  • Geological Context:
    The Lac Comporté, claim block is in the Grenville Province of the Canadian Shield, characterized by highly metamorphosed gneissic complexes and significant regional faulting. The area is underlain by quartz-rich gneisses, para-gneisses, and minor felsic volcaniclastics and granite, with significant regional faults and gravity anomalies traversing the claims.

  • Field Validation and Recommendations:
    The report recommends field validation of identified target areas, especially those with overlapping SWIR/LWIR mineral and gas anomalies. Follow-up on deep and surface hydrogen anomalies is warranted, as these may indicate previously unrecognized quartz-rich zones. The integrated approach of combining satellite, geochemical, gravity, and geological data will continue to refine exploration models and reduce risk.

The Lac Comporté, claim block comprises thirty-three contiguous mining claims totaling 2,030 hectares, accessible by provincial and forest roads from Route 138. The project area is underlain by geological units favorable for high-purity silica, and historical fieldwork supports the remote sensing results.

The results of this preliminary remote sensing program will guide the upcoming field exploration campaign, which will include detailed ground investigations and sampling focused on priority quartzite target areas identified through satellite, gas, and gravity data integration.

Jeff Stevens, CEO of Argyle Resources Corp., commented:

"Integrating advanced satellite remote sensing, gas surveys, and geological mapping has provided us with a powerful toolkit for targeting high-value mineral showings at Lac Comporté,. We are encouraged by the strong correlation between hydrogen gas anomalies and high-purity quartzite and look forward to advancing exploration in these priority areas."
