Sirios Will Begin a Drilling Campaign on The Aquilon Gold Project in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec

Montreal, April 30, 2025 - The management of Sirios Resources Inc. (TSXV: SOI) is pleased to announce that a diamond drilling program will be carried out at the beginning of the summer on the Aquilon gold project, located in Eeyou Istchee James Bay, Quebec.

This program, totaling approximately 5,000 meters, will test around ten targets resulting from the compilation and interpretation of the latest surveys conducted in 2024 on the project. These targets are in an area distinct from the main known gold showings.

The drilling program is funded by Sumitomo Metal Mining Canada (Sumitomo), with Sirios as operator. Sumitomo has the option to acquire an 80% interest in the Aquilon project by making an investment of $14.8 million (see press release dated 12/19/2022).
