Mineral Resource Notes: (1) Parsons, B and Kelloff, K, 2025: NI43-101 Technical Report Mineral Resource Estimate Palmer Project, Alaska, USA. Report prepared for Constantine Metal Resources by SRK Consulting (US), Inc. Effective date January 13, 2025. (2) Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. The deposits have been classified as Indicated and Inferred based on confidence in the geological model, drill spacing. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, market or other relevant issues. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Resources are uncertain in nature and there has not been sufficient work to define these Inferred Mineral Resources as Indicated or Measured Resources. There is no certainty that any part of a Mineral Resource will ever be converted into reserves. (3) Mineral resources are reported using an assumed NSR which includes prices, recoveries, and payabilities cut-off grade based on metal price assumptions*, variable metallurgical recovery assumptions**, mining costs, processing costs, general and administrative (G&A) costs and variable NSR factors. Mining (US$41.3), processing (US$23.92) and G&A costs (US$11.77) and Sustaining Capital (US$15.92) totaling US$92.9/t for Underground Mining. (*) Metal price assumptions considered for the calculation of Metal Equivalent grades are: Gold (US$/oz 2,100.00), Silver (US$/oz 28.0), Copper (US$/lb 4.50), Lead (US$/lb0.95) and Zinc (US$/lb 1.50). (**) Cut-off grade calculations assume variable metallurgical recoveries as a function of grade and relative metal distribution. Average metallurgical recoveries are: SW/RW Zones: Gold (76.1%), Silver (90.2%), Copper (90.3%), Lead (82.9%) and Zinc (89.2%), AG Zone: Gold (66.0%), Silver (91.0%), Copper (54.8%), Lead (83.4%) and Zinc (94.8%). (4) NSR Calculations for SW/RW Domains: NSR= $77.25 x %Cu + $20.32 x %Zn + $9.64 x %Pb + $0.64 x g/t Ag + $43.07 x g/t Au (5) NSR Calculation for AG Domain: NSR=$49.04 x %Cu + $22.25 x %Zn + $10.14 x %Pb + $0.70 x g/t Ag + $37.77 x g/t Au (6) The resources are considered to have potential for extraction using underground methodology and constrained by mineable shapes. Resources are presented undiluted and in situ and are considered to have reasonable prospects for economic extraction. (7) Barite as reported is shown for economic potential but has not been used in the NSR value at this stage. (8) ZnEq defined by equation SW & RW = NSR value per block / $20.32; AG = NSR value per block / $22.25 (Note Barite has been excluded from the ZnEq and NSR calculations). (9) CuEq defined by equation SW & RW = NSR value per block / $77.25; AG = NSR value per block / $49.04 (Note Barite has been excluded from the CuEq and NSR calculations). (10) Mineral Resources are based on validated data, which have been subjected to QA/QC analysis, using capped, composited samples at 2m. Estimation has been completed using a combination of Ordinary Kriging and Inverse Distance estimation methodologies and classified based on confidence in the underlying data and drill spacing. Mineral resource tonnages have been rounded to reflect the precision of the estimate. (11) The mineral resources were estimated by Benjamin Parsons, BSc, MSc Geology, MAusIMM $(CP)$ #222568 of SRK, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.
VMS-related copper-zinc-lead-silver-gold-barite mineralization across the Palmer Project, including the Palmer and Ag deposits, is hosted in a prospective belt of Late Triassic, rift-related volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Alexander Terrane. This prolific mineral belt is host to other significant VMS occurrences, prospects and deposits including the Windy Craggy copper-cobalt-silver-gold-zinc deposit in British Columbia, and the Greens Creek silver-zinc-lead-gold mine in southeast Alaska (Figure 1). Numerous drill-ready VMS prospects at Palmer are dispersed along more than 15 km of prospective stratigraphy that remains largely under-explored (Figure 2).

Effective December 4, 2025, the Company implemented the previously announced share consolidation on the basis of ten pre-consolidation common shares for each one post-consolidation common share (the "Consolidation"). All references in this news release to common shares in the capital of the Company are on a post-Consolidation basis.
Closing of Acquisition
The Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of CMR in consideration for the issuance of 13,888,888 common shares of Vizsla Copper, with a deemed price of $1.08 per share to American Pacific Mining Corp. ("American Pacific"), and which are subject to a four-month and one day hold period and certain contractual resale provisions.
Pursuant to the amended and restated share purchase agreement dated December 2, 2025, which amended and restated the share purchase agreement dated November 12, 2025, between Vizsla Copper and American Pacific (the "Agreement"), Vizsla Copper has also agreed to make the following milestone payments to American Pacific:
-- $5,000,000 (the "Resource Update Milestone Payment") payable upon the
public disclosure by Vizsla Copper of an updated mineral resource
estimate for the Palmer Project prepared in accordance with National
Instrument 43-101 -- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI
43-101"), which delineates a total of not less than 22 million tonnes of
mineralized material; and
-- $10,000,000 (the "Commercial Production Milestone Payment", and together
with the Resource Update Milestone Payment, the "Milestone Payments")
payable upon the commencement of commercial production at the Palmer
Project.
The Milestone Payments may be satisfied, at the election of the Company, in cash or by issuing common shares of Vizsla Copper ("Milestone Shares"), with pricing calculated based on the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") for the five trading days preceding the date on which the Milestone Payment is achieved. The issuance of Milestone Shares is subject to prior Exchange Approval and the Control Person Limit (as defined below). The settlement of the Resource Update Milestone Payment through Milestone Shares is also subject to the additional requirement that no Milestone Shares are issued at less than $0.975 in accordance with Exchange policies (which would result in a maximum of 5,128,205 Milestone Shares). The settlement of the Commercial Production Milestone Payment through Milestone Shares is subject to any Exchange pricing rules in effect at the time of the application to the Exchange for approval.
American Pacific is prohibited from holding or exercising, whether individually or jointly with any Associates, Affiliates (as defined in Exchange policies), or other persons, beneficial ownership of, or control or direction over, directly or indirectly, greater than 19.99% of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company (the "Control Person Limit"), calculated on a non-diluted basis.
If the issuance of any Milestone Shares would result in American Pacific becoming a Control Person (as defined in Exchange policies) of the Company, then, subject to the approval of the Exchange, the Company will issue to American Pacific, in lieu of that portion of such Milestone Shares that would result in American Pacific becoming a Control Person of the Company, an equivalent number of non-transferable special warrants in the capital of the Buyer (the "Special Warrants"). Each Special Warrant will be exercisable into one common share of the Company for no additional consideration, subject to the Control Person Limit. The issuance of any common shares or Special Warrants to American Pacific is subject to customary protective covenants and American Pacific will not have any board nomination, information, anti-dilution, pre-emptive, top-up or participation rights. All Milestone Shares and Special Warrants will be subject to a four-month and one day hold period. No Special Warrants have been issued in connection with the closing of the Acquisition.
The Agreement also includes a make-whole mechanism (the "Make-Whole Payment") designed to compensate American Pacific if Milestone Shares to be issued for a Milestone Payment falls below a reference price, entitling American Pacific to receive cash in payment as consideration an agreed make-whole period of 180 days. To mitigate potential Company cash-flow constraints, the Agreement also includes a non-breach mechanism that allows any required Make-Whole Payment to be deferred for a further 180 days until the Company is able to fund such payment (the "Deferred Make-Whole Amount"), without triggering a default. Amounts owing as a Deferred Make-Whole Amount will become an unsecured obligation of Vizsla Copper, bearing interest at a rate equal to the prime rate posted by the Bank of Canada plus 2% per annum, calculated and paid monthly, until the expiration of 180 days, at which time the Deferred Make-Whole Amount will be subject to an increased interest rate equal to the prime rate posted by the Bank of Canada plus 4% per annum.
In connection with the Acquisition, the Company assumed responsibility and granted an indemnity with respect to certain obligations arising from the purchase agreement dated November 15, 2024 among American Pacific, Constantine North Inc. and Dowa Metals & Mining Alaska Ltd. The Company also assumed payment obligations with respect to the previously leased camp on the Palmer Property, in an amount not to exceed US$400,000.
The Acquisition was an arm's length transaction. The Company paid Agentis Capital Mining Partners, an arm's length party, a $500,000 success fee in connection with the Acquisition.

Notes
(i) Adjacent Properties: The Company has no interest in,
or rights to, any of the adjacent properties mentioned,
and exploration results on adjacent properties are
not necessarily indicative of mineralization on the
Company's properties. Any references to exploration
results on adjacent properties are provided for information
only and do not imply any certainty of achieving similar
results on the Company's properties.
(ii) Historical Data: This news release includes historical
information that has been reviewed by Vizsla Copper's
and/or American Pacific's qualified person. Vizsla
Copper's and/or American Pacific's review of the historical
records and information reasonably substantiate the
validity of the information presented in this presentation.
Vizsla Copper encourages readers to exercise appropriate
caution when evaluating these data and/or results.
(iii) Third-Party Mineral Projects: These deposits are cited
solely for geological context. The Company cautions
that these properties are not adjacent to, nor does
the Company or American Pacific have any interest
in or control over them. Although certain geological

The Palmer Project is an advanced stage volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) project located in southeast Alaska, 60 kilometers from tidewater. The 33,000 hectare project hosts a mineral resource of 4.77Mt at 3.5% CuEq Indicated(1) (1.69% copper, 5.17% zinc, 0.14% lead, 28.4 g/t silver, 0.29 g/t gold, 20.6% BaSO(4) ) and 12Mt at 3.1% CuEq Inferred(1) (0.57% copper, 3.92% zinc, 0.47% lead, 66.3 g/t silver, 0.33 g/t gold, 25.5% BaSO(4) ) established across two main deposits, the Palmer Deposit and the AG Deposit (Tables 1 and 2). All claims comprising the Palmer Project are in good standing, with all the necessary permits in place to explore and complete the next phase of engineering and analysis.

Mineral Resource Notes: (1) Parsons, B and Kelloff, K, 2025: NI43-101 Technical Report Mineral Resource Estimate Palmer Project, Alaska, USA. Report prepared for Constantine Metal Resources by SRK Consulting (US), Inc. Effective date January 13, 2025. (2) Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability. The deposits have been classified as Indicated and Inferred based on confidence in the geological model, drill spacing. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, market or other relevant issues. The quantity and grade of reported Inferred Resources are uncertain in nature and there has not been sufficient work to define these Inferred Mineral Resources as Indicated or Measured Resources. There is no certainty that any part of a Mineral Resource will ever be converted into reserves. (3) Mineral resources are reported using an assumed NSR which includes prices, recoveries, and payabilities cut-off grade based on metal price assumptions*, variable metallurgical recovery assumptions**, mining costs, processing costs, general and administrative (G&A) costs and variable NSR factors. Mining (US$41.3), processing (US$23.92) and G&A costs (US$11.77) and Sustaining Capital (US$15.92) totaling US$92.9/t for Underground Mining. (*) Metal price assumptions considered for the calculation of Metal Equivalent grades are: Gold (US$/oz 2,100.00), Silver (US$/oz 28.0), Copper (US$/lb 4.50), Lead (US$/lb0.95) and Zinc (US$/lb 1.50). (**) Cut-off grade calculations assume variable metallurgical recoveries as a function of grade and relative metal distribution. Average metallurgical recoveries are: SW/RW Zones: Gold (76.1%), Silver (90.2%), Copper (90.3%), Lead (82.9%) and Zinc (89.2%), AG Zone: Gold (66.0%), Silver (91.0%), Copper (54.8%), Lead (83.4%) and Zinc (94.8%). (4) NSR Calculations for SW/RW Domains: NSR= $77.25 x %Cu + $20.32 x %Zn + $9.64 x %Pb + $0.64 x g/t Ag + $43.07 x g/t Au (5) NSR Calculation for AG Domain: NSR=$49.04 x %Cu + $22.25 x %Zn + $10.14 x %Pb + $0.70 x g/t Ag + $37.77 x g/t Au (6) The resources are considered to have potential for extraction using underground methodology and constrained by mineable shapes. Resources are presented undiluted and in situ and are considered to have reasonable prospects for economic extraction. (7) Barite as reported is shown for economic potential but has not been used in the NSR value at this stage. (8) ZnEq defined by equation SW & RW = NSR value per block / $20.32; AG = NSR value per block / $22.25 (Note Barite has been excluded from the ZnEq and NSR calculations). (9) CuEq defined by equation SW & RW = NSR value per block / $77.25; AG = NSR value per block / $49.04 (Note Barite has been excluded from the CuEq and NSR calculations). (10) Mineral Resources are based on validated data, which have been subjected to QA/QC analysis, using capped, composited samples at 2m. Estimation has been completed using a combination of Ordinary Kriging and Inverse Distance estimation methodologies and classified based on confidence in the underlying data and drill spacing. Mineral resource tonnages have been rounded to reflect the precision of the estimate. (11) The mineral resources were estimated by Benjamin Parsons, BSc, MSc Geology, MAusIMM (CP) #222568 of SRK, a Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101.
VMS-related copper-zinc-lead-silver-gold-barite mineralization across the Palmer Project, including the Palmer and Ag deposits, is hosted in a prospective belt of Late Triassic, rift-related volcanic and sedimentary rocks of the Alexander Terrane. This prolific mineral belt is host to other significant VMS occurrences, prospects and deposits including the Windy Craggy copper-cobalt-silver-gold-zinc deposit in British Columbia, and the Greens Creek silver-zinc-lead-gold mine in southeast Alaska (Figure 1). Numerous drill-ready VMS prospects at Palmer are dispersed along more than 15 km of prospective stratigraphy that remains largely under-explored (Figure 2).

Participation by these insiders of the Company in the Offering constitutes a related-party transaction as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 -- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The issuance of these securities is exempt from the formal valuation requirements of Section 5.4 of MI 61-101 pursuant to Subsection 5.5(b) of MI 61-101 as the Company's common shares are listed on the Exchange. The issuance of these securities is also exempt from the minority approval requirements of Section 5.6 of MI 61-101 pursuant to Subsection 5.7(1)(b) of MI 61-101 as the fair market value was less than C$2,500,000.
Effective December 4, 2025, the Company implemented the previously announced share consolidation on the basis of ten pre-consolidation common shares for each one post-consolidation common share (the "Consolidation"). All references in this news release to common shares in the capital of the Company are on a post-Consolidation basis.
Closing of Acquisition
The Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of CMR in consideration for the issuance of 13,888,888 common shares of Vizsla Copper, with a deemed price of $1.08 per share to American Pacific Mining Corp. ("American Pacific"), and which are subject to a four-month and one day hold period and certain contractual resale provisions.
Pursuant to the amended and restated share purchase agreement dated December 2, 2025, which amended and restated the share purchase agreement dated November 12, 2025, between Vizsla Copper and American Pacific (the "Agreement"), Vizsla Copper has also agreed to make the following milestone payments to American Pacific:
-- $5,000,000 (the "Resource Update Milestone Payment") payable upon the
public disclosure by Vizsla Copper of an updated mineral resource
estimate for the Palmer Project prepared in accordance with National
Instrument 43-101 -- Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI
43-101"), which delineates a total of not less than 22 million tonnes of
mineralized material; and
-- $10,000,000 (the "Commercial Production Milestone Payment", and together
with the Resource Update Milestone Payment, the "Milestone Payments")
payable upon the commencement of commercial production at the Palmer
Project.
The Milestone Payments may be satisfied, at the election of the Company, in cash or by issuing common shares of Vizsla Copper ("Milestone Shares"), with pricing calculated based on the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares on the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") for the five trading days preceding the date on which the Milestone Payment is achieved. The issuance of Milestone Shares is subject to prior Exchange Approval and the Control Person Limit (as defined below). The settlement of the Resource Update Milestone Payment through Milestone Shares is also subject to the additional requirement that no Milestone Shares are issued at less than $0.975 in accordance with Exchange policies (which would result in a maximum of 5,128,205 Milestone Shares). The settlement of the Commercial Production Milestone Payment through Milestone Shares is subject to any Exchange pricing rules in effect at the time of the application to the Exchange for approval.
American Pacific is prohibited from holding or exercising, whether individually or jointly with any Associates, Affiliates (as defined in Exchange policies), or other persons, beneficial ownership of, or control or direction over, directly or indirectly, greater than 19.99% of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company (the "Control Person Limit"), calculated on a non-diluted basis.
If the issuance of any Milestone Shares would result in American Pacific becoming a Control Person (as defined in Exchange policies) of the Company, then, subject to the approval of the Exchange, the Company will issue to American Pacific, in lieu of that portion of such Milestone Shares that would result in American Pacific becoming a Control Person of the Company, an equivalent number of non-transferable special warrants in the capital of the Buyer (the "Special Warrants"). Each Special Warrant will be exercisable into one common share of the Company for no additional consideration, subject to the Control Person Limit. The issuance of any common shares or Special Warrants to American Pacific is subject to customary protective covenants and American Pacific will not have any board nomination, information, anti-dilution, pre-emptive, top-up or participation rights. All Milestone Shares and Special Warrants will be subject to a four-month and one day hold period. No Special Warrants have been issued in connection with the closing of the Acquisition.
The Agreement also includes a make-whole mechanism (the "Make-Whole Payment") designed to compensate American Pacific if Milestone Shares to be issued for a Milestone Payment falls below a reference price, entitling American Pacific to receive cash in payment as consideration an agreed make-whole period of 180 days. To mitigate potential Company cash-flow constraints, the Agreement also includes a non-breach mechanism that allows any required Make-Whole Payment to be deferred for a further 180 days until the Company is able to fund such payment (the "Deferred Make-Whole Amount"), without triggering a default. Amounts owing as a Deferred Make-Whole Amount will become an unsecured obligation of Vizsla Copper, bearing interest at a rate equal to the prime rate posted by the Bank of Canada plus 2% per annum, calculated and paid monthly, until the expiration of 180 days, at which time the Deferred Make-Whole Amount will be subject to an increased interest rate equal to the prime rate posted by the Bank of Canada plus 4% per annum.
In connection with the Acquisition, the Company assumed responsibility and granted an indemnity with respect to certain obligations arising from the purchase agreement dated November 15, 2024 among American Pacific, Constantine North Inc. and Dowa Metals & Mining Alaska Ltd. The Company also assumed payment obligations with respect to the previously leased camp on the Palmer Property, in an amount not to exceed US$400,000.
The Acquisition was an arm's length transaction. The Company paid Agentis Capital Mining Partners, an arm's length party, a $500,000 success fee in connection with the Acquisition.

Notes
(i) Adjacent Properties: The Company has no interest in,
or rights to, any of the adjacent properties mentioned,
and exploration results on adjacent properties are
not necessarily indicative of mineralization on the
Company's properties. Any references to exploration
results on adjacent properties are provided for information
only and do not imply any certainty of achieving similar
results on the Company's properties.
(ii) Historical Data: This news release includes historical
information that has been reviewed by Vizsla Copper's
and/or American Pacific's qualified person. Vizsla
Copper's and/or American Pacific's review of the historical
records and information reasonably substantiate the
validity of the information presented in this presentation.
Vizsla Copper encourages readers to exercise appropriate
caution when evaluating these data and/or results.
(iii) Third-Party Mineral Projects: These deposits are cited
solely for geological context. The Company cautions
that these properties are not adjacent to, nor does
the Company or American Pacific have any interest
in or control over them. Although certain geological
features may be similar, there is no assurance that
mineralization comparable to these deposits will be
discovered on any of the Company's properties or the
Palmer Project. The potential quantity and grade,
if any, on any of the Company's properties or the
Palmer Project are conceptual in nature and there
has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral
resource. It is uncertain whether further exploration
will result in the delineation of a mineral resource.
Information regarding the aforementioned deposits
is taken from publicly available sources and technical
reports believed to be reliable, but has not been
independently verified by the Company or American
Pacific.
