CMX Gold & Silver Corp. Expands Investor Awareness Program for Clayton Silver Project Exploration

CMX Gold & Silver Corp. (CSE: CXC; OTC: CXXMF) announced it has expanded its marketing and investor awareness program focused on the company and its 100%-owned Clayton Silver Project in Idaho through a one-year corporate communications agreement with IBN executed Dec. 31, 2025. Under the agreement, IBN will act as an independent contractor and provide investor awareness and communications services for a base fee of $3,000 per month, or $36,000 for the one-year term, with the potential for additional fees related to supplemental services. CMX said the expanded outreach is intended to increase visibility as the company advances exploration planning at the Clayton Silver Project, its flagship asset in the Bayhorse Mining District of central Idaho.

The Clayton Silver Property comprises approximately 684 acres in Custer County in south-central Idaho, including the former Clayton silver-lead-zinc mine. The Clayton Mine was developed on eight levels to a depth of 1,100 feet below surface and is comprised of approximately 19,690 feet of underground development. Two major ore bodies were partially mined: the South Ore Body and the North Ore Body. The property's significant potential is demonstrated in hole 1501-A, drilled in the mid-1960's, which penetrated the mineralized zone at 1,425 feet. At that depth, the hole intercepted 22 feet of 4.07 oz Ag/t, 5.75% lead and 5.37% zinc. The recorded production from the Clayton Mine included 7,031,110 oz silver, 86,771,527 lbs lead, 28,172,211 lbs zinc, 1,664,177 lbs copper, and minor amounts of gold from an estimated 2,145,652 tonnes of ore mined between 1934 and 1985.

The company is planning work programs in 2025 and extending over the next several years to assess the resource potential within the structures related to the previously mined sections and to expand the search to determine the potential for other mineralized zones in adjacent structures. This will entail detailed geophysical work and multiple drill programs. CMX has concluded that very little geophysics was done on the property historically.

This expansion of investor awareness efforts comes at a critical time for CMX as it prepares to launch exploration activities at a property with demonstrated historical production and untapped potential. The company's decision to invest in enhanced communications through IBN suggests a strategic move to build investor confidence and attract capital for what could be significant exploration campaigns. The Clayton Project's location in mining-friendly Idaho, combined with its substantial historical infrastructure and documented mineralization, positions it as a potentially valuable asset in a market increasingly focused on domestic mineral production. The agreement with IBN provides CMX with access to specialized mining sector communications expertise that could help the company stand out in a crowded market.

The financial commitment of $36,000 for the one-year term represents a meaningful investment in corporate communications for a junior mining company, indicating management's seriousness about advancing the Clayton Project. This investor awareness program expansion aligns with the company's stated exploration timeline, which includes work programs beginning in 2025 and extending over several years. The focus on geophysical work and multiple drill programs suggests a systematic approach to resource evaluation that could potentially lead to significant discoveries. For investors, this expanded communications effort provides increased transparency and regular updates about exploration progress at a project with both historical production data and blue-sky potential in adjacent structures.
