VANCOUVER, BC , Nov. 25, 2025 /CNW/ - Vizsla Copper Corp. (TSXV: VCU) (OTCQB: VCUFF) (FRANKFURT: 97E0) ("Vizsla Copper" or the "Company") is pleased to report results from a recently completed Direct Current Induced Polarization (DCIP) geophysical survey along trend of its Thira discovery on the Poplar project (the "Poplar Project" or "Poplar") in central British Columbia (Figure 1).

HIGHLIGHTS

• Multiple un-tested DCIP chargeability anomalies are present.
  
  
• Anomalies are similar in scale to the DCIP chargeability anomaly associated with the Thira discovery (Figure 2).
  
  
• Phase 2 winter drill program planned for Q1 of 2026 at Thira.

"I am encouraged by the number of top-quality drill targets present within the Thira alteration footprint," commented Steve Blower, VP, Exploration. "We have always thought that the 8 x 2 kilometre footprint is large enough to host multiple porphyry centers, and this survey supports that interpretation. Our team is eagerly awaiting the next phase of drilling in the first quarter of 2026."

The DCIP Survey

The grid-based, DCIP survey across the Thira alteration corridor consisted of 39.8-line kilometers across 15 northwest-southeast oriented lines spaced 400 meters apart. The survey expanded on the 2024 DCIP survey that only covered the center of the alteration corridor (see January 15^th, 2025 News Release). The 2025 survey was designed to characterize and detect subsurface sulfide mineralization associated with eastern and western extents of the largely till-covered, 8 by 2 kilometer Thira alteration corridor.

Recently completed drilling at the Thira discovery outlined an open-ended, ~800 by 500 meter footprint of strong porphyry-related mineralization (e.g., 237.3 meters of 0.51% CuEq* (0.36% Cu, 0.02% Mo, 1.19 g/t Ag, and 0.06 g/t Au from 117.7 meters downhole in TH25-145, see October 20^th, 2025 News Release). This mineralized zone, consisting of chalcopyrite-molybdenite bearing stockwork, is spatially coincident with soil geochemical and geophysical (airborne EM and ground DCIP) anomalies (see January 15^th, 2025 and November 6^th, 2025 news releases). The DCIP data highlight a moderate-chargeability response surrounded by a halo of strong-chargeability response (Figure 2). This chargeability pattern is interpreted to reflect a center of chalcopyrite-molybdenite-bearing potassic alteration surrounded by a broad zone of highly-chargeable, pyrite-bearing phyllic alteration (Figure 2).

Modelling and interpretation of the recently acquired DCIP chargeability and resistivity data are ongoing, however, preliminary data products (e.g., n=1) suggest the presence of two additional target areas: Copper Pond and Camp Lake (Figure 2). At both targets, a zone of moderate-chargeability is surrounded by zones of very high-chargeability, similar to the Thira discovery (Figure 2). The center of these anomalies have yet to be systematically drill tested and represent priority areas for future drill programs.

Next Steps at Thira

Three dimensional inverted models of chargeability and resistivity data from the 2024 and 2025 DCIP surveys are currently being constructed. These models will be integrated with other geophysical and soil geochemical datasets to generate new drill targets for a planned winter drill program in Q1 of 2026.

Poplar Project

The 44,200-hectare Poplar project in central BC covers Mesozoic aged arc-related volcanic, sedimentary and intrusive rocks considered prospective for porphyry-related copper and gold mineralization. In addition to the Thira target, the project also hosts the Poplar deposit, a near-surface porphyry-related copper and gold system. The Thira target is approximately 10 km south of the Poplar deposit. Vizsla Copper has the option to earn a 100% interest in the property through a series of expenditure commitments and annual cash payments until 2027.
