Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 27, 2026) - Corcel Exploration Inc. (CSE: CRCL) (OTCQB: CRLEF) (the " Company " or " Corcel ") today announced the results of its initial induced polarization ("IP") geophysical survey that consisted of 10 line-km using a 2D pole-dipole electrode array over the Yuma King West and Yuma King Mine targets at the Yuma King Project (the " Project ") in Arizona.

Key insights from the IP survey:

Yuma King Mine: New YK North Skarn Target
Resistivity inversion defines new YK North Skarn target largely hidden by cover rocks (Figures 1 and 2). This is a conductive zone that resembles a similar zone hosting Yuma King Mine mineralization, located on the opposite side of the porphyry intrusion. The Yuma King Mine mineralization is not strongly chargeable so is best imaged by resistivity or its inverse, conductivity. Geological mapping shows prospective stratigraphy continues in this area, and mineralization potential is supported by an Au-Cu soil anomaly that is the mirror image of a similar anomaly southeast of Yuma King Mine.

Three Musketeers: Near-surface resistive zones (Figure 3) correlate with magnetite destructive alteration and potential skarn-hosting stratigraphy identified by the drone magnetic survey (see news release dated June 28, 2025 ). These are associated with very strong Au and Cu in soils ( up to 1.47 g/t Au and 10,750 ppm Cu ) and rocks ( up to 17.15 g/t Au and 11.6% Cu; see news release dated May 13, 2025 ). This alteration and geophysical response may indicate the upper levels of a porphyry and/or skarn system (Figure 1).
YK West: Large IP chargeability anomalies (Figure 4) approach the surface in the southern half of these lines and plunge northward to depth. These anomalies have high conductivity and are interpreted as a deep-seated (>250 m) source which could represent enrichment in sulfide minerals related to a porphyry system, or underlying McCoy Mountains Formation rocks which contain graphite/graphene of potential economic significance (see news release dated October 27, 2025 ). Outcropping magnetite-rich skarn, along with with Au-in-soil and strong Cu-in-rocks results, overlies this anomaly in the YK West Area.

"Corcel continues to advance the Yuma King Project through a systematic integration of surface exploration, geophysics, and drilling across what we believe is a large-scale copper-gold system," commented CEO Jon Ward. "The results from this recently completed IP survey highlight compelling chargeability and resistivity anomalies extending beyond the immediate Yuma King Mine area, reinforcing the broader district-scale potential of the project. We are actively incorporating these results into current drill targeting, and they will be used to define and prioritize targets for our Phase 2 drill program."
