New Analytical Results for Mushima North

("Tertiary" or the "Company")

7 September 2026

New analytical results from Phase 4 infill drilling at the Discovery Zone increases the depth extent of thick, near surface silver-copper mineralisation at Target A1, Mushima North

Tertiary Minerals plc (AIM: TYM) is pleased to announce additional laboratory analytical results from the recent Phase 4 drill programme at the Discovery Zone in Target A1, Mushima North Project in Zambia ("Mushima North" or the "Project). The results follow the Company's news release of the first laboratory assay results on 1 September 2026 and are from a further seven drill holes.

All seven holes intersected near surface, silver-copper-zinc mineralisation and extend the mineralisation at depth with the majority of holes ending in mineralisation.

Mushima North is located in the prospective Iron-Oxide-Copper-Gold region of Zambia. Target A1 is a polymetallic, silver-copper-zinc prospect, where the Company has previously reported a near surface Exploration Target of 15-30 million tonnes at 40-60 g/t silver equivalent, and which is located 28km to the east of the historic Kalengwa copper-silver mine which is currently under redevelopment.

Highlights:

Ø Depth extent of mineralisation increased with multiple drill holes ending in mineralisation.

Ø Infill drilling provides further support and increases confidence in the Exploration Target of near surface silver-copper-zinc oxide mineralisation, with drill intersections including (downhole widths, true widths unknown):

· 67m at 40g/t Ag, 0.10% Cu and 0.30% Zn (51 g/t Ag equivalent) from 19m downhole (26TMNRC-054; drillhole ends in mineralisation).

· 82m at 37 g/t Ag, 0.11% Cu and 0.54% Zn (53 g/t Ag equivalent) from 7m downhole (26TMNRC-057).

· 46m at 41 g/t Ag, 0.19% Cu and 0.65% Zn (63 g/t Ag equivalent) from 8m downhole (26TMNRC-058; drillhole ends in mineralisation).

Ø Higher-grade silver-copper mineralisation zone further supported, with drill intersections including (downhole widths, true widths unknown):

· 22m at 90 g/t Ag, 0.13% Cu and 0.44% Zn (105 g/t Ag equivalent) from 64m downhole (26TMNRC-054; drillhole ends in mineralisation).

· 12m at 80 g/t Ag, 0.21% Cu and 0.67% Zn (104 g/t Ag equivalent) from 35m downhole (26TMNRC-058; drillhole ends in mineralisation).

· 11m at 97 g/t Ag, 0.07% Cu and 0.54% Zn (110 g/t Ag equivalent) from 43m downhole (26TMNRC-058, drillhole ends in mineralisation).

Ø Additional laboratory analytical results expected over the coming weeks.

Richard Belcher, Managing Director of Tertiary Minerals plc, commented:

"Results from our infill drilling continue to increase our confidence on the extent and continuation of grade within the Exploration Target at the Discovery Zone, with intersections including 82m at 53 g/t silver equivalent (0.88% copper equivalent) from only 7m below surface. The higher-grade zone is further supported with the new results and includes an intersection of 22m at 105 g/t silver equivalent (1.75% copper equivalent) from 64m.

"Moreover, the majority of the holes reported here end in grade indicating the mineralisation remains open with depth and pushes the known depth of mineralisation beyond the envelope of the previously defined Exploration Target. The full depth extent and the possibility for the current oxide mineralisation to transition to sulphide mineralisation are yet to be tested.

"Additional laboratory results are expected over the coming weeks and we look forward to updating our shareholders in due course".

Drill Programme and Results

A total of 39 (3,639m) Reverse Circulation ("RC") drill holes were drilled as part of the Phase 4 drill programme. For the drilling at the Discovery Zone, holes were collared along a series of east-west drill lines spaced approximately 100m apart (north-south) and 50m apart along the east-west lines and drilled to vertical depths of up to 128m. This was the maximum depth capability of the drill rig under the drilling conditions, in particular the higher-than-expected water table and resultant wet samples. Drilling was completed in two passes to allow the updating of the Company's geological model as new data became available and to enable the programme to be more dynamic.

Further information on the drill programme can be found in Company's announcement on 8 June 2026.

The results in this announcement are for seven holes only (including these seven holes, results for a total of 12 holes have now been released; Figures 1 and 2), and are from the northern section of the Exploration Target and include infill holes to increase confidence in the continuity of the mineralisation to the level required to report a Mineral Resource Estimate, testing of the Exploration Target mineralisation margin to potentially expand the footprint, and also targeting of the higher-grade mineralisation zone.

Accessory minerals such as bismuth, antimony and cobalt are also intersected in these holes as well as being present in previous drilling. While the potential for these metals has yet to be evaluated, they are classified as critical, and in some case strategic raw materials, (e.g. by the European Commission) and if economically feasible to extract along with the main silver-copper mineralisation, could have positive impacts of future economics.

Additional certified laboratory results will be announced on an on-going basis as they become available.

Note to Table:

· Calculated intersections (downhole, true widths unknown) are weighted averages based on silver or copper (denoted in table by metal in bold). Using a cut-off grade of 10 g/t Ag or 0.1% Cu, respectively. Intervals start and end with ≥10 g/t Ag or 0.15 Cu, respectively and with up to 3m consecutive internal dilution allowed.

· Silver values rounded to whole numbers.

· EOH means End of Hole.

· CuEq (%) and AgEq (g/t) are the copper and silver equivalent grades, respectively, and were calculated assuming commodity prices of Cu: US$4.99 lb, Ag: US$57 oz, Zn: US$1.38 lb and 100% recovery as used in reporting of previous results from Phase 2 and 3 drill programmes. No information on beneficiation recoveries is available at this stage. These are for illustrative purposes only.

· Gram metres for silver are the silver values (g/t) multiplied by the intervals (m).

Sampling, Analysis and QAQC

Sampling from the drilling programme was undertaken at 1m intervals and two subsamples were collected from each interval using a riffle splitter: one for potential laboratory analysis, the other for future reference.

Samples were initially analysed on site using a portable X-Ray Fluorescence ("pXRF") analyser for copper, zinc and silver. Analysis protocol included the averaging of two analyses per sample (unprepared sample analysed through a thin plastic sample bag) and the inclusion of Certified Reference Material, blanks and duplicate samples as part of an internal Quality Assurance ("QA") procedure. Given the nature of the unprepared sample and point analysis, this method was used as a preliminary analytical technique to provide an approximate quantitative measure of copper and zinc grades and a qualitative assessment of the silver grades.

Samples from selected drill holes based on the initial pXRF results were sent to the independent laboratory, ALS Global, located in South Africa for analysis for a range of elements using a four-acid digest, method code ME-ICP61 (including silver, copper, zinc, bismuth, antimony and gallium). QA samples (Certified Reference Material, duplicates, blanks) were inserted and will be monitored as part of the Quality Assurance Quality Control ("QAQC") protocol.

Reported drill hole intersection thicknesses are downhole thicknesses and true thicknesses are unknown. Intersections are weighted averages on silver (using a cut-off grade of 10 g/t Ag), copper (using a cut-off grade of 0.1% Cu) and zinc (using a cut-off grade of 0.2% Zn) with up to 3m internal dilution.

Target A1 Silver Oxide Discovery

The Company has previously reported a JORC-compliant Exploration Target for the Discovery Zone of between 15 and 30 million tonnes with an average grade of between 40 and 60 g/t silver equivalent. As currently defined, this is a near surface, tabular body located within the oxide zone and is some 500m long, 300m wide and up to 75m thick (based on a lower cut-off of 25 g/t silver equivalent). The mineralisation remains open to the northwest, southwest and at depth and so the full extent and true geometry of the mineralisation remain to be determined. Further information on the Exploration Target can be found in the Company's announcement on 30 March 2026.

Elevated bismuth (up to 0.53%), antimony (up to 0.13%), cobalt (0.39%) and gallium (up to 40 g/t) are also associated with the mineralisation, but, as yet, have not been fully investigated. The potential for the near surface oxide mineralisation to transition to underlying sulphide mineralisation has yet to be tested. Nor has the potential for expanding the mineralisation based on nearby targets, such as at the Western Zone, Target A1.

Mushima North Project

The Mushima North Copper Project (Licence 27068-HQ-LEL) is held through Group company Copernicus Minerals Limited ("Copernicus"), which is 90% owned by Tertiary Minerals (Zambia) Limited and 10% by local partner, Mwashia Resources Limited.

The Project is under a technical cooperation agreement with First Quantum Minerals Limited ("FQM"), which allows Tertiary to benefit from FQM's historic exploration data in the area, as well as FQM's geological team's extensive experience and understanding of the area's geology. The agreement is non-binding and does not create any obligation to enter into any further agreement. There are no commercial restrictions for Tertiary and FQM does not have a right of first refusal over the Project. Further details can be found in the announcement on 15 September 2022.

Target A1 lies 28km to the east of the Kalengwa Copper (-Silver) Mine in northwest Zambia, one of the highest-grade copper deposits ever to be mined in Zambia. In the 1970s, high-grade ore, averaging approximately 11% Cu copper, was trucked for direct smelting at other mines in the Copperbelt. The Kalengwa Mine is currently under redevelopment.

Numerous other geochemical and/or geophysical targets (B1, B2, B3, C2) are yet to be drill tested, the majority of which are located within a 12km radius of Target A1.
