Arizona Gold & Silver Drilling Identifies Second High Grade Zone with 11 GPT Gold Intercepted at the Philadelphia Project, Arizona

(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, British Columbia, July 09,
2025 – TheNewswire -
Arizona Gold & Silver Inc.
(TSXV: AZS) (OTCQB: AZASF) is pleased to announce a vein
intercept of 22.47 metres (“m”) grading 3.05 grams per tonne
(“gpt”) gold, including 11.5 gpt
gold across 1.59 m and 6.41
gpt gold across 3.69 m from drill hole PC25-154 at the Perry
Zone at the Philadelphia Project. The high grades coincide with zones
of yellow quartz within an impressive epithermal quartz
and bladed calcite-bearing vein system. Results continue to indicate
that the mineralization in the system is getting stronger with depth.
 Yellow quartz is associated with high gold grades throughout the
district.

Perry Vein Core Hole PC25-154

The Perry Vein is a vein located east of and across a drainage from
the Rising Fawn zone that has been the focus of drilling previously.
The Perry Vein is a distinct mineralized zone within the overall
gold-mineral system on the property. It is separated from the Rising
Fawn zone by 30-60 metres.

Hole PC25-154 continues our earlier success in PC25-136 in
demonstrating that the Perry Vein increases in thickness and grade
with depth (new release dated April 7, 2025).  Drill hole PC25-154
was specifically designed to test below drill hole PC25-136 to
determine the continuity of mineralization down dip.  Visually our
geologist reported more yellow quartz than up dip on that drill
section.

Hole PC25-154 assays are as follows:

True widths are approximately 65% of drillingthicknesses.

Vein textures demonstrate classic epithermal features,including colloform and ginguro banding and cockscomb textures. Yellowquartz is abundant, similar to high-grade zones in the nearby Oatmangold mines.  Importantly, this intercept looks to be shallow in thevein system based on the abundance of bladed calcite.

Mr. Greg Hahn, VP Exploration commented, “Drill hole PC25-154 is exciting.  It demonstrates increasingconcentrations of gold and favourable vein textures with depth. Almost the entire width of the vein carries +3 gpt gold.  Yellowquartz is more abundant than what was present in holes up-dip.  Inaddition, we are now seeing two zones of high grade rather than justone, another indication that the system is getting stronger withdepth.  This provides encouragement for core hole PC25-155 currentlyin progress.  That hole is approaching the projection of the top ofthe vein 60 metres (200 feet) down-dip from PC25-154.  Currently weare within 15 metres (50 feet) of the top of the target and seeingleakage into the hanging wall volcanics. Leakage is in the form ofbladed calcite veins with replacement by yellow quartz.  Normallyyellow quartz does not appear so far above the vein.”

Exploration GoingForward

Drilling on the Philadelphia Projectcontinues to test down dip of the Perry Vein mineralized interceptsreported in this release.  Drilling on the adjacent Rising Fawn Zonehas been completed for the present until assays on the drilled holesare received from the analytical laboratory. Assays on hole PC25-154were rushed, which displaced work and progress on the previouslysubmitted holes.

QA/QC Program

All HQ-sized core samples were shipped to the Skyline Labs facility inTucson, Arizona, where the samples are inventoried, sawed in half,with half of the core sampled and half preserved for future reference,sampled, crushed and pulverized.  All core was sampled in 1-2 metreintervals based upon mineralogy and textures observed by the corelogging geologist. Gold is determined by fire assay with an AA finishand silver is determined by ICP-MS methods within a multi-elementsuite. Over-limits on gold (+5 gpt Au) are determined by fire assaywith a gravimetric finish.

The Company maintains its own program of insertingStandard Reference material in the form of standards and blanks to thesampling stream, prior to being shipped to Skyline’s laboratoryfacility in Tucson, Arizona, in addition to the independent QA/QCprotocols of Skyline Labs.
