Aston Bay (TSX.V: BAY) (OTCQB: ATBHF), together with project operator American West Metals, reported new high-grade copper intercepts from ongoing exploration at the Storm Copper Project on Somerset Island, Nunavut. The companies operate the project under a 20/80 joint venture, with Aston Bay holding a free carried interest until a decision to mine. CEO Thomas Ullrich said drilling within and beyond the current resource envelope returned thick, high-grade intervals up to 27.3% copper, supporting significant expansion potential. Additional assays and permitting activities are underway as the project advances toward a resource update and pre-feasibility study in early 2026.
