Getty Copper Targets Extension of Higher Grade Mineralization at Getty SouthMay 26, 2026 9:00 AM
NewsfileHighlights:Historical drilling data indicates near surface high grade Cu targets at Getty SouthInitial target: IP chargeability anomaly down-plunge of the Trojan Zone high grade mineralization Drilling to commence immediately as part of ongoing exploration programVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - May 26, 2026) - Getty Copper Inc. (TSXV: GTC) ("Getty" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on a drill target identified at Getty South, a potential satellite deposit within the Company's Getty Project (the "Project") in the Highland Valley District. The target was identified through the Company's ongoing review of historical exploration data across the Project.Getty has completed a compilation and review of historical drilling data at Getty South. The database includes mainly drill holes completed in the 1970s and earlier, many of which were only partially sampled with no geological logs and uncertain locations. The review also included relogging of 13 drill holes completed in 1996 totaling 2,579 metres, all of which were fully sampled and assayed.This drilling data, combined with information from trenching and geological mapping shows that discrete breccia-hosted higher grade copper zones within Getty South have been only partly defined. One of the most significant of these is the Trojan Zone, which includes the historical Trojan Mine. Reported historical drill intercepts1 include:1.3% Cu over 23.2 m from 1.2 m depth in U-40.9% Cu over 12.2 m from 13.7 m depth in U-51.1% Cu over 9.1 m from 18.3 m depth in U-61.7% Cu over 25 m from 18.3 m depth in U-90.63% Cu over 20 m from 52.5 m depth in GS96-060.8% Cu over 8.8 m from 72.8 m depth in U-10.8% Cu over 39 m from 72.9 m depth in U-3 (The deepest intersection to date, 125m vertically below surface; hole collared underground)Notably, the Trojan Zone is partly coincident with an IP chargeability anomaly which strengthens at depth beneath historical drilling. IP anomalies indicate the presence of disseminated sulfide mineralization, which is very encouraging as chalcopyrite is by far the most abundant sulfide mineral encountered in drilling at Getty South. This anomaly and others across the property have been better defined by 3D inversions of historical geophysical data completed as part of the Company's ongoing district-scale exploration targeting work."Getty South has always been one of the most compelling targets within our district-scale Highland Valley land package. Our recent technical work has highlighted the potential for higher-grade near-surface copper mineralization associated with the historical Trojan Zone, and the IP anomaly gives us a strong vector for the next phase of drilling. We are excited to begin testing this target immediately as part of our ongoing 2026 exploration program." - CEO, Ryan O'ReganThe Trojan Zone will be the initial target of the planned drill program at Getty South. Planned drill holes ranging from 150 to 500 metres are designed to determine the geometry, grade, and mineralogy of extensions to the near-surface high-grade zones, while also testing geophysical anomalies located down-plunge of the high-grade breccia zones.

Getty Copper Commences 10,000 Metre Spring Drill ProgramApril 13, 2026 6:30 AM
NewsfileHighlights:10,000 metre drill program focused on the Getty North deposit - the largest program at Getty Copper since 1997Getty North deposit remains open to expansion at depthOngoing targeting of potential satellite resources, including at Getty SouthVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 13, 2026) - Getty Copper Inc. (TSXV: GTC) ("Getty" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of a planned 10,000 metre drill program focused on the Getty North deposit, and satellite targets including the Getty South deposit, within its Getty Project (the "Project") in the Highland Valley District.The primary goal of the program, as part of Getty's two-pronged resource and exploration-focused strategy in the district, is to expand and confirm the resource potential of the Getty North and Getty South deposits. These deposits were historically drilled to shallow depths, in a significantly lower copper price environment with very limited geological controls or modern multi-element assay data. Two diamond drills will be active concurrently for most of the program, and core will be logged and processed at Getty's core shack nearby in Logan Lake, BC.CEO, Mr. Ryan O'Regan, added "Since closing the recent transaction just weeks ago, our team has moved quickly under new leadership to mobilize and commence drilling. We have made rapid progress advancing this program, which marks the first material drilling program at the Getty Project in nearly 30 years.Getty controls approximately 25% of one of Canada's largest copper districts, yet this ground has seen virtually no meaningful drilling for decades. Our focus with this program is to test for higher-grade mineralization, expand known mineralized zones, and demonstrate the broader scale potential of the project. This work is designed to unlock meaningful value for shareholders, supported by a strong copper market and compelling long-term fundamentals."Image 1: Drill Rig on Site at Getty NorthTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:

This interpretation is supported by relogging of 5,750 m of historical drill core completed by the Company over the last 6 months.

https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/12291/292052_75aed617d42ee9a2_002full.jpgThe planned drilling program will test the depth extension potential of the deposit via holes drilled both down the plunge of the deposit and via holes drilled across it. Current planned hole locations are constrained by permitting, and the Company is working to increase the available drill locations. Initial holes are planned to be 550-650m long.The drill holes will also collect material to be used for geometallurgical characterization and metallurgical testing, as part of the Company's strategy of advancing the resource potential of the Project. This work will include sequential leach Cu assays in the near-surface parts of each deposit, where supergene copper mineralization with potential for heap leach extraction is known to occur.At Getty South, ongoing validation of historical drill hole database, drill hole locations and underground sampling data, which go back to the 1950s, will support drill planning which is being finalized. Recent relogging of 2,579 m of historical core shows that porphyry-related breccias in the Getty South area have a relatively low sulfide content (chalcopyrite-specular hematite being the main sulfide-oxide gangue minerals) and are associated with sericitic alteration. This indicates that there is potential at Getty South for zonation towards a more Cu-rich, potassically altered zone at depth. This geological target coincides with an IP chargeability anomaly that underlies the western part of Getty South, with the potential down-plunge extension of zones of higher-grade breccia-hosted Cu mineralization which was the focus of workings at the historical Trojan underground mine.Other satellite targets, including Getty West, are also in the process of being evaluated for future drilling as part of the Company's resource and exploration strategy. An additional 4,000-6,000 m of drilling in the latter half of 2026 is planned and may include these satellite exploration targets.
