A.I.S. Resources Appoints VP Exploration and Engages AI Metals

A.I.S. Resources Limited has made two strategic appointments to advance its Saint John Project in New Brunswick, signaling a technology-forward approach to mineral exploration. The company appointed Afzaal Pirzada, a professional geoscientist with over 30 years of experience, as Vice President of Exploration to coordinate the upcoming exploration program. Simultaneously, AIS engaged AI Metals Limited, a specialized firm employing PhD AI experts from Cambridge University, to perform integration and analysis of geophysical and geological data using artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies.

The Saint John Project represents a significant opportunity in a Tier-1 mining jurisdiction, covering 101 km² just 20 km west of Saint John, New Brunswick. The project targets IOCG/porphyry mineralization with exposure to gold, silver, copper, and antimony across three main prospects. Surface sampling results have been particularly encouraging, with the Little Lepreau prospect returning gold values up to 41.6 g/t, silver up to 1,600 g/t, copper up to 7.64%, and antimony exceeding 1%. The Prince of Wales prospect has also shown strong results with gold up to 11.4 g/t and copper up to 10.55%.

The integration of AI technology into the exploration workflow represents a forward-thinking approach to drill target definition and data processing. High-resolution magnetic surveys have already identified multiple magnetic low response areas with similar signatures to known mineralization at the Roadside Quarry. The company is planning surface sampling, trenching, and expanded drone MobileMT + IP surveys to define drill targets for a 2,000-meter maiden RC/DD drill program at Little Lepreau.

This announcement positions AIS at the intersection of traditional mineral exploration and cutting-edge technology, potentially reducing exploration risk while improving targeting efficiency. The Saint John Project's strategic location near excellent infrastructure, including highways, rail, deep-water port access, and proximity to the U.S. border, enhances its commercial attractiveness. With strong technical leadership now in place and AI-powered analytical capabilities being deployed, AIS appears well-positioned to advance this multi-commodity project through its next phase of development.
