VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Island Passage Exploration Limited (IPX or the “Company”) is excited to host a webinar with renowned geologists John Robins and Dr. Quinton Hennigh on Wednesday, November 18, 2026 at 4:00pm EST. Join IPX President Patrick Highsmith in a technical conversation and brainstorming session with two of the most prolific and practical “ore finders” in the junior mining sector.
Island Passage has completed the second hole of its core drilling campaign at the Pivi prospect within the large Bara – Tangka porphyry copper-gold target. The drill core from the first two holes confirms the presence of a mineralized quartz-diorite dike swarm cutting hornfels and skarn altered sedimentary rocks, very similar to the rocks encountered in the channel and trench samples.
The team continues to prospect and develop additional targets in the Bara-Tangka area and across the 250 km2 license (See Figure 1). These efforts have pushed known copper mineralization well to the east from Pivi at new prospects Derasi Creek and Angkaraku Creek, where new channel samples revealed significant copper, including:
The Siroo skarn prospect has also advanced to a phase 1 drill target. Senior leaders from the IPX technical team visited the newly discovered skarn at Siroo and have located a drill collar to test the high-grade mineralization reported there in October 2026 (23m at 0.69% Cu and 0.82 g/t Au, including 7m at 1.24% Cu and 1.46 g/t Au). The potential at Siroo is expected to grow as the area exhibits widespread mineralization, extending at least 250 metres farther east to the Ampatori Hill prospect.
IPX is also advancing beyond the Idi and AK prospects to the northwest with new soil sampling, mapping, and sampling. In addition to another 1 km2 of extended soil geochemistry coverage,
