Toronto, Ontario–(Newsfile Corp. – March 14, 2025) – Maritime Resources Corp. (TSXV: MAE) (OTC Pink: MRTMF) (“Maritime” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce additional drill results from a grade control drill program at the Hammerdown Gold Project. Hammerdown is located in the Baie Verte mining district of Newfoundland and Labrador, near the towns of King’s Point and Springdale.

Highlights:

• 19.9 grams per tonne (“gpt”) gold (“Au”) over 17.0 metres (“m”), including 32.2 gpt Au over 10.0 m in drill hole HDGC-25-124

• 2.5 gpt Au over 14.0 m in drill hole HDGC-25-120

• 31.6 gpt Au over 1.0 m in drill hole HDGC-25-145

• 27.9 gpt Au over 1.0 m in drill hole HDGC-25-118

• 27.8 gpt Au over 0.9 m in drill hole HDGC-25-231

• Sampling of underground mine backfill material in drill holes HDGC-25-234 and HDGC-25-149 returned 11.2 gpt Au over a 3.0 m and 16.7 gpt Au over 2.0 m, respectively

Discussion of Results

The latest drill results cover multiple locations within the proposed first year of open pit mining at Hammerdown. The grade control program continues to validate the vein model and historic underground workings while identifying additional mineralization between the high-grade veins, mine backfill material and remnant pillars.

Notable assay results include drill hole HDGC-25-124, which intersected 19.9 gpt Au over 17.0 m, including 32.2 gpt Au over 10.0 m. This drill hole is located 5 metres south of previously announced drill hole HDGC-25-122 (Maritime press release dated March 4, 2025) which returned 12.0 gpt Au over 28.0 m, including 73.7 gpt Au over 4.0 m demonstrating excellent short range continuity in an area of structural thickening. Further south and 11 m west of drill hole HDGC-25-124, drill hole HDGC-25-120 intersected the Wisteria Zone at a depth of 23 m returning a broad 14 m wide interval averaging 2.5 gpt Au. The Wisteria Zone is a large bulk tonnage target consisting of disseminated sulphide mineralization in a quartz feldspar porphyry (QFP) that remains open at depth and along strike. Drill hole HDGC-25-145 also returned a high-grade intersection of 31.6 gpt Au over 1.0 m in the P01 vein, extending the vein approximately 20 m beyond its interpreted wireframe.

The Hammerdown grade control program continues to deliver impressive results, further refining the resource model by capturing mineralization between high-grade veins, defining new mineralization in previously clipped pillars and wireframes plus identifying high grade mineralization within the historic backfilled stopes. This was seen in drill holes HDGC-25-234 with 11.2 gpt Au over 3.0 m and HDGC-25-149 with 16.7 gpt Au over 2.0 m. These results enhance the confidence in the mineralization surrounding and inside the previously mined out stopes at Hammerdown. The potential quantity and grade are conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource. It is uncertain whether further exploration would result in the backfill material being delineated as a mineral resource.

Grade Control Drilling

The grade control drill program is now completed with 8,460 metres of diamond drilling in 273 drill holes. The program was designed to intersect the sub vertical mineralization on a 10m x 10m staggered pattern to maximize future ore extraction while minimizing ore losses and dilution. Assay results are pending for over 114 drill holes and will be released as they are received.

Qualified Person

Exploration activities at the Hammerdown Gold Project are administered on site by the Company’s Exploration Manager, Larry Pilgrim, P.Geo. In accordance with National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, Larry Pilgrim, P.Geo. Exploration Manager, is the Qualified Person for the Company and has prepared, validated and approved the technical and scientific content of this news release. The Company strictly adheres to CIM Best Practices Guidelines in conducting, documenting, and reporting its exploration activities on its exploration projects.

Analytical Procedures

All samples assayed and pertaining to this press release were completed by Eastern Analytical Limited (EAL) located at Springdale, Newfoundland and Labrador. EAL is an ISO 17025:2005 accredited laboratory for a defined scope of procedures. EAL has no relationship to Maritime Resources. Drill core samples are collected from NQ sized diamond drill core and sawn in half. The half core samples are delivered in sealed plastic bags to EAL by Maritime field crews where they are dried, crushed, and pulped. Samples are crushed to approximately 80% passing a minus 10 mesh and split using a riffle splitter to approximately 250 grams. A ring mill is used to pulverize the sample split to 95% passing a minus 150 mesh. Sample rejects are securely stored at the EAL site for future reference. A 30-gram representative sample is selected for analysis from the 250 grams after which EAL applies a fire assay fusion followed by acid digestion and analysis by atomic absorption for gold analysis. Other metals were analyzed by applying an acid digestion and 34 element ICP analysis finish. EAL runs a comprehensive QA/QC program of standards, duplicates and blanks within each sample stream.
