An additional **air core drilling program** of about **3,000 metres** is scheduled to start in **early November**, focusing on **near-mine anomalies**.\n\nHistorical underground drilling highlights include:\n\n-\n**UGD084:** 2m @ **1,995 g/t Ag** within 6m @ **705 g/t Ag**\n\n-\n**UGD085:** **23,304 ppm Ni**, **6,013 ppm Cu**, **1,078 ppm Pb**, **4,104 ppm Zn**, and **50 ppm Ag**\n\n**Alien Metals** retains a **30% free-carried interest** in the Elizabeth Hill Silver Project.\n\n**Belinda Murray, Executive Director of Alien, commented:**\n\n“We are delighted to see West Coast Silver accelerating the next phase of drilling at Elizabeth Hill. The decision to bring forward the programme demonstrates the strong technical and continued operational momentum at the project following the exceptional silver grades achieved earlier this year.\n\n“This campaign builds on the first phase results and is another key step in advancing the Elizabeth Hill Project toward defining the extent of the high-grade silver system. Alien retains a 30% free-carried interest and continues to benefit from the value being unlocked through this systematic exploration effort.”\n\nThe full text of the announcement issued by West Coast Silver is provided below in Appendix A.\n\nFor further information, please visit the Company’s website at [www.alienmetals.uk](http://www.alienmetals.uk/)"}
