VANCOUVER, BC — Aton Resources Inc. (TSXV: AAN), a Canadian mineral exploration company, has announced further diamond drilling results from its Abu Marawat deposit in Egypt’s Eastern Desert.

As of May 20, 2025, Aton has completed 95 diamond drill holes at the Abu Marawat deposit, totaling 7,917 meters. These holes have been drilled horizontally or at shallow angles to test near-surface mineralization in an area characterized by steep and mountainous terrain, which poses challenges for conventional drilling rigs.

The recent drilling results highlight several significant intersections:

  • 8.52 g/t Au, 88.7 g/t Ag, 9.50 g/t AuEq, 2.15% Cu, and 0.59% Zn over a 15.40-meter interval on the Central Vein zone (CVZ), from 23.50 meters downhole depth (hole AMD-151).
  • 6.06 g/t Au, 59.6 g/t Ag, 6.72 g/t AuEq, 1.02% Cu, and 1.24% Zn over a 17.30-meter interval on the CVZ, from 32.80 meters downhole depth (hole AMD-146).
  • 4.14 g/t Au, 40.7 g/t Ag, 4.59 g/t AuEq, 0.85% Cu, and 0.17% Zn over a 13.90-meter interval on the CVZ, from 13.30 meters downhole depth (hole AMD-149).
  • 3.07 g/t Au, 33.7 g/t Ag, 3.44 g/t AuEq, 0.45% Cu, and additional results pending.

These results are part of Aton’s ongoing exploration efforts within the retained exploration areas of its Abu Marawat Concession. The company’s operations are headquartered in Vancouver, Canada, and it is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange.

Aton Resources Inc. has a market capitalization of 22,260,000 CAD, with a close price of 0.175 CAD as of May 15, 2025. The company’s 52-week high was 0.32 CAD on May 22, 2024, and its 52-week low was 0.15 CAD on April 10, 2025. The price-to-earnings ratio stands at -2.03.
