Department of Justice officials are facing threats of legal action after the department missed the Epstein Files Transparency Act’s stated deadline to publish all its documents related to Jeffrey Epstein – but the law may lean in the DOJ’s favor.

DOJ officials have continued to review and upload the files more than a week after the congressionally mandated Dec. 19 due date, spurring Democrats and some Republicans to call for a range of consequences, from contempt to civil litigation. The DOJ is, however, defending the drawn-out release process, suggesting that rushing to publish piles of unexamined material would also flout the law.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a recent interview on ‘Meet the Press’ there was ‘well-settled law’ that supported the DOJ missing the transparency bill’s deadline because of a need to meet other legal requirements in the bill, like redacting victim-identifying information.

The bill required the DOJ to withhold information about potential victims and material that could jeopardize open investigations or litigation. Officials could also leave out information ‘in the interest of national defense or foreign policy,’ the bill said, while keeping visible any details that could embarrass politically connected people.

Last week, the DOJ revealed that two of its components, the FBI and the U.S. attorney’s office in the Southern District of New York, had just gathered and submitted more than 1 million additional pages of potentially responsive documents related to Epstein’s and Ghislaine Maxwell’s sex trafficking cases for review.

The ‘mass volume of material’ could ‘take a few more weeks’ to sift through, the DOJ said in a statement on social media, adding that the department would ‘continue to fully comply with federal law and President Trump’s direction to release the files.’ 

The DOJ’s concerns about page volume and redaction requirements echo those frequently raised in similar litigation surrounding compliance with Freedom of Information Act requests, where courts have stepped in to balance competing interests of parties in the cases rather than attempting to force compliance on an unrealistic timetable.

The conservative legal watchdog Judicial Watch has seen mixed success over the years in bringing FOIA lawsuits, showcasing the court’s role in mediating such disputes.

Judicial Watch brought several lawsuits against the government over Hillary Clinton’s private email server scandal, leading a federal judge at one point to allow the conservative watchdog to move forward with questioning Clinton aides as part of a discovery process as it sought records on the matter. The decision was later reversed at the appellate court level.

In a separate case, the appellate court sided with Judicial Watch by reversing a lower court ruling as part of a longstanding legal battle the watchdog waged with the DOJ over obtaining Acting Attorney General Sally Yates’ emails. The D.C. Circuit Court found that the DOJ could not withhold email attachments from Yates’ account and ordered further review on the matter.

In the current controversy over the Epstein files, lawmakers are pressuring the DOJ by threatening a combination of political and legal remedies over the 30-day deadline and over what they view as excessive redactions. 

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., vowed to bring a resolution up for a vote when the Senate returns from the holidays that would direct the Senate to initiate a lawsuit against the DOJ for failing to comply with the transparency act’s requirements.

‘The law Congress passed is crystal clear: release the Epstein files in full, so Americans can see the truth,’ Schumer said. ‘Instead, the Trump Department of Justice dumped redactions and withheld the evidence — that breaks the law.’

Reps. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., and Thomas Massie, R-Ky., who spearheaded the transparency bill, warned that they plan to pursue contempt proceedings against Attorney General Pam Bondi in light of the DOJ missing the deadline and making perceived over-redactions.

A group of mostly Democratic senators also called on the DOJ inspector general to investigate the department’s compliance with the law.

The DOJ has maintained that releasing unreviewed documents would violate the law, saying last week that it had ‘lawyers working around the clock to review and make the legally required redactions.’

The Trump administration announced a $2 billion pledge for United Nations humanitarian aid Monday and warned agencies must ‘adapt, shrink, or die’ under its overhaul, according to a statement from the Department of State.

The new package comes as the administration reins in traditional foreign assistance and pushes humanitarian organizations to meet stricter standards on efficiency, accountability and oversight.

‘Individual U.N. agencies will need to adapt, shrink, or die,’ the statement said after outlining what it called ‘several key benefits for the United States and American taxpayers.’

‘The United States is pledging an initial $2 billion anchor commitment to fund life-saving assistance activities in dozens of countries,’ the State Department said.

The administration also said that the contribution is expected to shield tens of millions of people from hunger, disease, and the devastation of war in 2026 alone, with a new model significantly reducing costs. 

‘Because of enhanced efficiency and hyper-prioritization on life-saving impacts, this new model is expected to save U.S. taxpayers nearly $1.9 billion compared to outdated grant funding approaches,’ the statement said.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the approach is intended to force long-standing reforms across the U.N. system and reduce the U.S. financial burden.

‘This new model will better share the burden of U.N. humanitarian work with other developed countries and will require the U.N. to cut bloat, remove duplication, and commit to powerful new impact, accountability, and oversight mechanisms,’ Rubio said in a post on X.

The pledge is smaller than previous U.S. contributions, which officials said had grown to between $8 billion and $10 billion annually in voluntary humanitarian funding in recent years.

Administration officials said those funding levels were unsustainable and lacked sufficient accountability.

Jeremy Lewin, the State Department’s senior official overseeing foreign assistance, underscored the administration’s position during a press conference in Geneva.

‘The piggy bank is not open to organizations that just want to return to the old system,’ Lewin said in the statement. ‘President Trump has made clear that the system is dead.’

The funding commitment is part of a newly signed Memorandum of Understanding between the U.S. and the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

The agreement replaces project-by-project grants with consolidated, flexible pooled funding administered at the country or crisis level.

Tom Fletcher, the U.N.’s top humanitarian official and head of OCHA, welcomed the agreement, calling it a major breakthrough. ‘It’s a very significant landmark contribution,’ Fletcher said, according to the Associated Press.

U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz also said the deal would deliver more focused, results-driven aid aligned with U.S. foreign policy interests, while the State Department warned future funding will depend on continued reforms.

The dispute over occupied territories in Ukraine continues to be a sticking point amid negotiations between Kyiv and Moscow as President Donald Trump seeks to help bring an end to the war between the neighboring countries. 

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told Fox News’ Bret Baier that a peace deal with Moscow could be close following his Sunday meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago.

‘Even with one question today, we’ve been very close,’ Zelenskyy told Baier on ‘Special Report.’ ‘I think we have a problem with one question: It’s about territories.’

Key issues about territory remain unresolved in talks that have taken place over months. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov recently said that the West must acknowledge the fact that Russia holds the advantage on the battlefield.

Zelenskyy has been reluctant to cede territory held by Russian forces since the war began in 2022 over to Moscow. 

Zelenskyy has suggested that Ukraine might be open to withdrawing from the Ukrainian provinces of Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia, which Russia wants to annex, only if Ukrainian voters give their approval in a referendum. 

‘I think the compromise, if we do a free economic zone that we have, and we have to move some kilometers back. It means that Russia has to make minor steps some kilometers back,’ Zelenskyy said. ‘This free economic zone will have specific rules. Something like this referendum is the way how to accept it or not accept it.’

Putin doesn’t want peace, Zelenskyy said, despite the mounting death toll for Russian forces. 

‘I don’t trust Putin. He doesn’t want success for Ukraine,’ Zelenskyy said. ‘I believe he can say such words to President Trump… but it’s not true really.’

Following his meeting with Trump, Zelenskyy said they were 90% agreed on a draft 20-point plan, despite Moscow showing no signs of budging on its territorial demands. 

The meeting came after Trump spoke with Putin over the phone where they both agreed that a deal must be reached to end Europe’s longest war in 80 years. 

It also came a day after Russia attacked the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv a day earlier. Moscow also claimed that Putin’s home in the Novgorod region was the target of a Ukrainian drone attack overnight, which Ukraine denies.

Outgoing New York City Mayor Eric Adams argued that the Biden administration’s Justice Department engaged in ‘lawfare’ against the former president’s political opponents, including himself on corruption allegations and President Donald Trump over issues such as mishandling classified documents.

‘I think what we have witnessed under President Biden’s Justice Department, Americans should never have to live through that again,’ Adams said on Monday during an appearance on Fox News’ ‘The Story.’

‘You saw everyday Americans who fought for the education of their children being put on watch lists, I think that you saw what happened with Charlie Kirk, when you saw the raiding of President Trump’s home. Debates should have happened … I think that you’re seeing the clear indication that the Justice Department under the previous administration used lawfare to go after those who disagree with them,’ he added.

Asked if he felt as angry about the alleged weaponization of the DOJ before he was targeted, Adams said ‘personal experience allows us to see firsthand the abuse.’

‘I spent my entire life, not only as a police officer, but as a state senator and borough president fighting against injustices,’ Adams said. ‘There’s a real history, a rich history, of me standing up and fighting what the criminal justice system should never be. Yes, that anger was there long before I was a target, but what I saw happen while I was the mayor is really deplorable, and we saw what happened to President Trump’s family as well.’

‘If you were to go back and look at my life story on criminal justice reform and not abuse, it goes back to being a young man who was abused at the hands of law enforcement,’ he continued. ‘And so I’ve always been a clear voice, and it really personalized it of what I was fighting for years because I experienced the lawfare myself.’

Adams was indicted in September 2024 on federal corruption charges related to bribery, wire fraud and accepting illegal foreign campaign contributions from Turkish officials and businessmen. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.

The mayor has insisted that the case was politically motivated over his criticism of how the Biden administration handled illegal immigration, but prosecutors in the Southern District of New York said in court filings that the investigation began in September 2021, before Adams’ public criticism of the government’s immigration policies or his mayoral election win.

The charges were dropped earlier this year at the request of the Trump administration.

Adams is set to leave office at the turn of the new year, when Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani will be sworn in.

Back on Inauguration Day, few in Washington would have believed that the highly publicized friendship between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk would implode before the year’s end.

No political partnership burned brighter or fizzled faster than Trump and Musk’s in 2025. What began as a joint crusade to cut federal spending through the newly minted Department of Government Efficiency quickly devolved into a public falling out that unfolded in a full-blown social media feud.

As 2025 comes to a close, here’s a look back at the biggest political breakup of the year.

October 2024 — First public appearance together

The 2024 presidential campaign was the driving force for the high-profile partnership that ensued.

After the first Trump assassination attempt at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, 2024, Musk endorsed Trump in an X post. Musk went on to donate more than $200 million to Trump’s presidential campaign through his super PAC, America PAC.

While the two appeared together for a virtual town hall that August, the X owner and Tesla CEO made his first public appearance with Trump on Oct. 5, as the soon-to-be president returned to Butler three months after the shooting and one month before Election Day.

Musk was jumping for joy as he joined Trump on stage.

November 2024 — Musk appointed to lead DOGE

After Trump won the 2024 presidential election, Musk was appointed to lead the Department of Government Efficiency.

On stage in Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, after winning the election, Trump said of Musk, ‘A star is born!’

Two weeks after the election, Trump and his family attended the SpaceX ‘Starship’ launch with Musk.

January 2025 — Inauguration Day

Trump made DOGE official on Inauguration Day by signing an executive order to cut waste, fraud and abuse in the federal government with a mandate to modernize ‘Federal technology and software to maximize governmental efficiency and productivity.’

Musk joined fellow tech moguls Jeff Bezos, Tim Cook and Mark Zuckerberg for Trump’s inauguration.

Early 2025 — DOGE cleans house

As the Trump administration got settled, DOGE got to work pursuing Musk’s ambitious goal of cutting up to $2 trillion from the federal budget.

As of October 2025, DOGE has saved approximately $214 billion through a combination of asset sales, contract or lease cancellations, fraud and improper payment deletions, grant cancellations, interest savings, programmatic changes, regulatory savings and workforce reductions, according to the DOGE website.

When tens of thousands of federal workers were laid off, protests began erupting across the United States, rejecting Musk’s leadership and Trump’s sweeping, second-term agenda.

March 2025 — Trump buys a Tesla 

Amid growing discontent directed at Musk and DOGE, Tesla stocks began seeing a drop earlier this year.

Meanwhile, Musk’s political involvement prompted push back from protesters. Tesla vehicles, charging stations and dealerships were targeted in a string of vandalism attacks.

In a show of support for Musk, Trump turned the White House South Lawn into a Tesla showroom and bought a red Tesla Model S.

‘He’s built this great company, and he shouldn’t be penalized, because he’s a patriot,’ Trump said.

May 2025 — Musk departs DOGE

By May, Musk began paring back his hours leading the controversial agency.

According to the Office of Government Ethics, ‘special government employees’ like Musk can work for the federal government no more than 130 days a year, which in Musk’s case was May 30.

On his last day at DOGE, Musk joined Trump in the Oval Office for a press conference celebrating the billionaire’s legacy.

June 2025 — Musk torches OBBB

Soon after Musk left the White House, Trump and Musk had their ‘big, beautiful’ breakup, fueled by congressional negotiations for Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

‘I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore,’ Musk said in a post on June 3. ‘This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination. Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.’

Trump’s megabill included tax cuts, green energy spending cuts and Medicaid reform, but fiscal conservatives, like Musk, argued it didn’t do enough to reduce the nation’s $38 trillion debt crisis.

Trump told reporters he was ‘very disappointed’ in Musk’s criticism of his marquee megabill.

‘Elon and I had a great relationship. I don’t know if we will anymore,’ Trump said.

Musk then fired back on X, arguing that, ‘Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Dems would control the House and the Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate.’

The Tesla CEO urged Trump to ‘keep the EV/solar incentives cuts in the bill.’

After Musk fired off several posts on X, Trump started firing back on his own social media platform, writing on Truth Social that Musk was ‘wearing thin’ and claiming that he asked Musk to leave the White House.

‘I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy Electric Cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!’ Trump said.

The president then threatened to ‘terminate Elon’s Government Subsidies and Contracts.’

Musk fired back with a ‘really big bomb,’ accusing Trump of being ‘in the Epstein files.’

‘This is an unfortunate episode from Elon, who is unhappy with the One Big Beautiful Bill because it does not include the policies he wanted. The President is focused on passing this historic piece of legislation and making our country great again,’ White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in response.

July 2025 — Fall-out fireworks

Congress narrowly passed Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act by a self-imposed July 4 deadline.

Ahead of its final passage, Musk renewed his criticism of the reconciliation bill on social media.

In response, Trump threatened to use DOGE to investigate Musk’s government subsidies for his companies.

September 2025 — Brought together at Charlie Kirk’s memorial service

Months later, Trump and Musk reunited to honor the conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated during a Turing Point USA event in Orem, Utah, on Sept. 10.

Trump and Musk were spotted shaking hands at Kirk’s memorial service in a box at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

‘For Charlie,’ Musk later responded to the photo on X.

October 2025 — Trump offers kind words

Aboard Air Force One on Oct. 27, Trump seemed to bury the hatchet when asked about Musk.

‘During Charlie’s beautiful tribute, Elon came over. It’s good with Elon. I like Elon. I have always liked Elon. Elon’s good,’ Trump said.

When asked if he had spoken to Musk since Kirk’s memorial, Trump said the two have spoken ‘on and off, a little bit, very little, nothing much.’

‘Look, he’s a nice guy, and he’s a very capable guy. I have always liked him. He had a bad spell. He had a bad period. He had a bad moment. Stupid moment in his life. Very stupid. I’m sure he’d tell you that, but I like Elon, and I suspect I will always like him,’ Trump added.

November 2025 — Musk back at the White House

On Nov. 18, Musk attended a White House dinner as Trump hosted Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. 

December 2025 — Moving forward

The dust seemed to settle on Trump and Musk’s ‘big, beautiful’ breakup as 2025 came to a close. 

FOX Business’ Edward Lawrence asked Trump during a cabinet meeting on Dec. 2 whether Musk was ‘back in [his] circle of friends’ after their falling-out.

Well, I really don’t know. I mean, I like Elon a lot,’ Trump responded. 

Musk did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s comment request.

Silver’s 2025 breakout marked one of the metal’s most decisive shifts in more than a decade.

As the price pushed through longstanding resistance, investors, miners and policymakers reassessed its role in global markets, allowing silver to reassert itself as not only an industrial metal, but also a staple financial asset.

Looking back at silver’s record-breaking year, these are our most popular news stories of 2025.

1. Retail Investors Look to Trigger Silver Squeeze 2.0

Publish date: March 31, 2025

Silver received mainstream attention in March, with renewed calls for what supporters dubbed “Silver Squeeze 2.0,” reviving a theme that first gained prominence during the meme stock era of 2021.

Online chatter intensified ahead of March 31, with advocates urging coordinated purchases of physical silver to challenge what they saw as entrenched institutional control over the metal’s pricing.

Efforts traced back to a March 22 post on X by user @TheSqueakyMouse, which gained broader attention after being amplified by sector analyst Jesse Colombo. Colombo, who posts under the handle @TheBubbleBubble, has argued that the silver price is artificially suppressed by large financial institutions:

“Bullion banks like JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) and UBS Group (NYSE:UBS) suppress silver prices through aggressive naked shorting—but a coordinated surge of physical buying could catch them off guard and break their hold on the market.’

Colombo pointed to data showing that major banks hold net short positions equivalent to roughly 223 million ounces of silver, meaning a US$1 price increase could theoretically translate into US$223 million in losses for those positions.

2. Missouri Set to Recognize Gold and Silver as Legal Tender, Critics Raise Implementation Concerns

Publish date: May 12, 2025

Attention on precious metals took a more concrete form in Missouri. In May, the state’s General Assembly passed a Republican-backed amendment to a broader finance bill that recognizes gold and silver as legal tender.

The measure would require state entities to accept electronic forms of gold and silver for public debts, including taxes. Private businesses would not be required to accept precious metals, but could do so voluntarily.

Supporters argued that recognizing gold and silver offers a hedge against inflation and what they view as irresponsible federal monetary policy. Critics, however, questioned how the system would work in practice.

3. Silver Miners Deliver Record Q2 Earnings as Price Breaks Out

Publish date: August 19, 2025

Silver’s mid-year rally above US$35 per ounce translated into record or near-record earnings for many miners in Q2.

Pan American Silver (TSX:PAAS) reported record net earnings of US$189.6 million in the period, while First Majestic Silver (TSX:AG,NYSE:AG) posted its strongest quarter to date, nearly doubling revenue year-on-year.

Even mining companies facing production challenges, such as Fresnillo (LSE:FRES,OTC Pink:FNLPF), saw revenue growth driven by gold output and pricing strength.

4. Missing Silver Bars Bring Mining Community Together

Publish date: March 7, 2025

Amid those financial milestones, the mining community was united in March by a widely shared incident.

Following the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada convention, two 10 ounce silver bars purchased by Kin Communications founder Arlen Hansen went missing after being checked in his luggage on an Air Canada flight.

The bars, worth about US$647, were intended for a silent auction benefiting Canadian children living with diabetes.

“I don’t need a refund, a free upgrade, or more points, this was stolen from the children who need it, not me,” Hansen wrote on X. The response from the mining community was swift. First Majestic Silver and its mint division volunteered to replace the lost silver, while others donated to Diabetes Canada and expressed support.

The incident also revived scrutiny of airline cargo security, particularly given Air Canada’s association with earlier high-profile precious metals thefts, including the 2023 gold heist at Toronto Pearson International Airport.

5. Pan American Silver Gets Green Light for US$2.1 Billion MAG Silver Deal

Publish date: August 25, 2025

One of this year’s most consequential silver M&A developments came when Pan American received final clearance from Mexico’s Federal Economic Competition Commission for its US$2.1 billion acquisition of MAG Silver.

The approval paved the way for the deal to close in early September, combining Pan American with one of the world’s highest-grade primary silver assets, Juanicipio.

Under the terms, MAG shareholders were to receive either cash or Pan American shares, leaving them with about 14 percent of the combined company on a fully diluted basis.

“This strategic acquisition further solidifies Pan American as a leading Americas-focused silver producer,” Pan American CEO Michael Steinmann said when the deal was announced.

He added that Juanicipio “will meaningfully increase Pan American’s exposure to high margin silver ounces,” while also providing longer-term growth through MAG’s exploration properties in Utah and Ontario.

Saga Metals Corp. (‘TSXV: SAGA,OTC:SAGMF’) (‘FSE: 20H’) (‘SAGA’ or the ‘Company’), a North American exploration company focused on discovering critical minerals, is pleased to announce the results from its follow up field program at the North Wind Iron Ore project in West Central region of Labrador, Canada.

Key Field Program Highlights

  • High-Grade Iron Ore Potential: Iron content (Fe₂O₃) in grab samples from the Sokoman Formation range as high as 84.57% Fe₂O₃, with continuous high grade in the Lower, Middle and Upper Iron stratigraphy’s. Highest grab sample of 2025 returned 79.26 % Fe₂O₃, from the Middle Iron Formation.
  • Magnetite-Rich Ore: Davis Tube separation techniques confirm the presence of magnetite-rich taconite ore, along with the occurrence of hematite, limonite, and goethite. These results are comparable to historical regional resources at the KéMag, Sheps Lake, and Perrault Lake deposits, which boasted strong resource estimates.
  • Extensive Mineralization Zone: Fieldwork identified iron ore mineralization over a 4km NW-SE trend, with indications that the mineralized zone continues southeast. Mapping in the area suggests that the units dip shallowly to the northeast which would make easy drill targets for resource estimation. Surface thickness of the mineralized trend ranges between 600 and 700 meters, underscoring the project’s potential scale.

SAGA’s North Wind Iron Ore Project: A highly prospective iron ore asset located in the globally recognized, resource-rich Labrador Trough

The North Wind Iron Ore property located 16 kilometers southwest of Schefferville, Quebec, within the prolific Labrador Trough, represents a secondary but high-potential critical mineral asset within Saga Metals’ portfolio. The Labrador Trough, an extensive 1,100-kilometer suite of Proterozoic rocks, is renowned for hosting world-class iron ore deposits and is a major hub for iron ore exploration.

In February of 2025, Cyclone Metals Limited announced that it signed a binding commercial agreement with Vale S.A. regarding the joint development of its Iron Bear iron ore project. (See Figure 1 above for project location). Under the terms of the agreement, Vale has the right to provide up to USD $138 million of funding to the Iron Bear Project in two Phases and earn 75% of the project. If Vale elects to proceed to Decision to Mine (DTM), Vale can elect to acquire the remaining 25% of the Iron Bear project at fair market value or carry Cyclone to production with no dilution.

SAGA’s North Wind property spans 6,375 hectares across 255 claim blocks under a single license. Its geological framework holds significant potential, reinforced by a portion of a historical resource estimate (NI 43-101 compliant) completed in 2013 by New Millennium Iron. This estimate included two key types of iron ore commonly found in the Labrador Trough:

  • Soft iron ores: Composed of fine-grained secondary iron oxides, including hematite, goethite, and limonite.
  • Taconites: Fine-grained, weakly metamorphosed iron formations with above-average magnetite content.

Historical exploration at North Wind includes data from eight drill holes, drilled by New Millenium in 2013, which averaged 20.74% Total Fe (iron) content over 590 meters drilled. Notably, the Lower Red Green Chert (LRGC), a key stratigraphic unit within the property, returned an average grade of 24.76% Fe across 277 meters drilled and was intercepted in all eight holes. This LRGC unit forms part of the Sokoman Formation’s ‘Lower Iron Formation,’ a high-priority target confirmed by both New Millennium Iron and SAGA’s exploration team.

North Wind Iron Ore Field Program 2025

As part of routine claims maintenance, Saga Metals conducted a short field program at the North Wind Iron Ore property in the Autumn of 2025. In total, 38 rock samples were collected within the target area, all being grab samples, across all units, with the main focus on the Middle and Lower iron formations. Of those 38 Grab samples, 17 of them were above 30% with the highest sampling coming from the Middle Iron Formation with 79.26% Fe₂O₃.

The program focused on mapping, prospecting, and rock sampling, targeting the northern and central areas of the property for follow up and drill hole verification, and the south first pass evaluation.

The Sokoman Formation, a high-priority target for Saga Metals, forms the core focus of exploration. This formation is subdivided into three stratigraphic members based on iron content (Fe₂O₃) seen below with the 2025 Top 18 samples:

  • Upper Iron Member: 37%–70.42% Fe₂O₃
  • Middle Iron Member: 36 %–79.26% Fe₂O₃
  • Lower Iron Member: 32.97 %–66.75% Fe₂O₃

The highest sample collected during the program (Sample ID: 1800354) returned 79.26 % Fe₂O₃, originating from the middle Iron members of the Sokoman Formation. These middle and lower members of the Sokoman Formation are particularly prospective, offering the most favorable grades based on iron content.

To further evaluate the potential of these units, SAGA employed Davis Tube Magnetic Separation techniques (as seen below in Table 1). This analytical method effectively separates magnetic (magnetite) and non-magnetic fractions (hematite, limonite, goethite and gangue minerals), providing a robust measurement of magnetite content. Results from these tests indicate that the magnetic fraction compares favorably to grades from nearby historical deposits, including the KéMag, Sheps Lake, and Perrault Lake deposits along the same geological trend. These regional deposits have reported 20%–34% Davis Tube Weight Recovery (DTWR) in historical NI 43-101 mineral resource estimates. *Past results or discoveries of resources on adjacent or nearby properties may not necessarily be indicative of the presence of significant mineralization on the Company’s property.

The 2025 work program confirmed the continued definition of the prospective Middle and Lower Iron members of the Sokoman Formation. Detailed structural mapping has shown the shallow dip of these formations to the northeast which the team has recognised is a great opportunity to expand on the New Millennium resource in the future by defining the grade continuity under cover of the Menhek formation and the less mineralised Upper Iron formation. New Millennium’s drilling in 2012 concentrated on the narrow strip in the middle where these formations were exposed on the surface.

Michael Garagan, CGO & Director of Saga Metals Corp. stated: ‘These findings, including the identified shallowly dipping mineralization to the east, reaffirm the North Wind Iron Ore Project’s potential to become a significant iron ore asset. With iron ore playing a critical role in the steelmaking process and increasing demand driven by infrastructure and renewable energy developments, Saga Metals sees considerable growth potential for the projects value and positions it as a promising contributor to SAGA’s portfolio of critical mineral assets.’

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA / ACCESS Newswire / December 30, 2025 / Prince Silver Corp. (CSE:PRNC,OTC:PRNCF)(OTCQB:PRNCF)(T130:Frankfurt) (‘Prince Silver’ or the ‘Company) is pleased to announce that its ongoing reverse circulation (‘RC’) drilling program has encountered favourable alteration in all ten drill holes completed to date at the Prince Silver Mine Project (the ‘Project’). Furthermore, the Company will increase the planned drill program from 21,000 feet (~6,400 metres) to over 30,000 feet (~9,100 metres) and accelerate drilling with the addition of a second RC drill rig next month.

Current drilling is focused on evaluating near-surface (less than 300 metres) carbonate replacement (‘CRD’) silver-gold-manganese and base-metal mineralization, as well as sediment-hosted gold-silver zones, along a 3,500-foot (~1,070-metre) structural corridor ranging from 600 to 1,200 feet (~180-360 metres) in width. Mineralization at the Project remains open in all directions within shallow, gently dipping mineralized zones that present potential for open-pit mining.

The first batch of assays for the ten completed drill holes is expected in January 2026. Results will provide important insight into the scale and continuity of mineralization across the Exploration Target (as defined below) and the broader mineralized system, and to help guide subsequent phases of drilling with the objective of incorporating new data into an initial NI 43-101-compliant mineral resource estimate.

‘The alteration encountered in the drill holes reinforce our confidence in the Prince Silver Mine Project and support our decision to expand and accelerate drilling,’ said Derek Iwanaka, CEO of Prince Silver Corp. ‘With a second drill rig coming on site and assays pending, we are well positioned to advance the Project toward a maiden mineral resource while continuing to test the broader mineralized system.’

Exploration Target

Historical drilling at the Project identified an exploration target (the ‘Exploration Target’) outlined in an independent historical report prepared in accordance with JORC guidelines by OmniGeoX Exploration Consultants of Perth, Australia. The report, titled ‘Prince Project Exploration Target’ (dated April 24, 2024), was authored by Dr. Lachlan Rutherford and Michael Martin (OmniGeoX Exploration Consultants, 2024, Independent Report prepared for Prince Silver Corp.).

The Exploration Target is based on 129 historic drill holes testing mineralized carbonate replacement beds and host Pioche Shale to depths of up to 300 metres. Historical block modelling of polymetallic mineralization suggests the immediate Exploration Target ranges from approximately 25-43 million tonnes with grades of 1.44-1.57% Zn, 0.78-0.87% Pb, 0.28-0.40 g/t Au, 37-40 g/t Ag, and 3.62-4.30% Mn. Dr. Rutherford and Mr. Martin are Competent Persons as defined under the 2012 Edition of the Australasian Code for Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Ore Reserves (JORC Code).

Additional details on the Exploration Target and historic production are available in the Company’s press release dated February 27, 2025, filed on SEDAR+ (Prince Silver Corp., 2025, Historic Drilling and Production Summary).

Readers are cautioned that the Exploration Target is not a mineral resource as defined under National Instrument 43-101. The Exploration Target is conceptual in nature and based on historic drilling totaling 16,606 metres, historic production records, mine level plans, and 3D geological modelling. There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain whether further exploration will result in the delineation of a mineral resource.

Annual General Meeting Results

Prince Silver Corp. held its annual general meeting of shareholders on December 23, 2025 (the ‘AGM’). Shareholders approved all matters presented, as set out in the Company’s management information circular dated November 25, 2025, including:
