Magnum’s Chairman, Michael Davy, commented: ‘We are very pleased to be initiating this research collaboration partnership with Homerun. We believe this MoU adds smart optionality to our strategy to drive value across our REE portfolio. At minimal cost, we can test whether Homerun’s high-purity silica has the potential to streamline REE separation from our Brazilian ore with a reduced solvent footprint. If successful, Magnum could unlock faster and cleaner routes to supplying REEs to market from its highly prospective Brazilian REE assets, where we have achieved exceptional exploration and leach results to date. We look forward to working with Homerun and by extension contributing to the broader wave of innovation we are seeing in the REE space, both in Australia and internationally.’

Homerun’s CEO, Brian Leeners, commented: ‘This collaboration is an exciting opportunity for Homerun to advance the application of our ultra-pure silica product in a new generation of rare-earth element separation technologies. By leveraging our high-purity feedstock with Magnum’s promising Brazilian rare-earth assets, we believe we can deliver environmentally improved, lower-carbon-footprint processing solutions that are critical to the energy transition. We look forward to driving innovation, lowering costs, and creating value for the stakeholders of both companies through this partnership.’

DETAILS OF THE MOU

Under the MoU the Parties will joint evaluate, the following:

• The bench scale application of the HMR ultra-pure silica sand for adsorption and chromatographic separation of rare earth elements from MGU’s REE projects in Brazil.

• Subject to the success of the bench scale test, a pilot test of the jointly developed solution.

• Eventual commercialisation of the jointly developed solution.

All IP created during the testing phases will be jointly controlled by the Parties. If a Party determines that chromatographic separation of rare earth elements is not suitable to their materials supplied for the purpose of the testing, they may exit the MoU and the other Party will have the right to utilise the IP obtained to their benefit. The Parties shall develop budgets to jointly cover the costs incurred related to the testing phases. The MoU term will expire in 12 months (subject to renewal). The MOU may be terminated on 30 days notice’ or due to an Event of Default or Force Majeure.

About Standard Uranium (TSXV: STND,OTC:STTDF)

We find the fuel to power a clean energy future

Standard Uranium is a uranium exploration company and emerging project generator poised for discovery in the world’s richest uranium district. The Company holds interest in over 233,455 acres (94,476 hectares) in the world-class Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, Canada. Since its establishment, Standard Uranium has focused on the identification, acquisition, and exploration of Athabasca-style uranium targets with a view to discovery and future development.

Standard Uranium’s Davidson River Project, in the southwest part of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, comprises ten mineral claims over 30,737 hectares. Davidson River is highly prospective for basement-hosted uranium deposits due to its location along trend from recent high-grade uranium discoveries. However, owing to the large project size with multiple targets, it remains broadly under-tested by drilling. Recent intersections of wide, structurally deformed and strongly altered shear zones provide significant confidence in the exploration model and future success is expected.

Standard Uranium’s eastern Athabasca projects comprise over 42,384 hectares of prospective land holdings. The eastern basin projects are highly prospective for unconformity related and/or basement hosted uranium deposits based on historical uranium occurrences, recently identified geophysical anomalies, and location along trend from several high-grade uranium discoveries.

Standard Uranium’s Sun Dog project, in the northwest part of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, is comprised of nine mineral claims over 19,603 hectares. The Sun Dog project is highly prospective for basement and unconformity hosted uranium deposits yet remains largely untested by sufficient drilling despite its location proximal to uranium discoveries in the area.

Adams Plateau Project

The road accessible Adams Plateau Project is located approximately 100 km north-east of Kamloops, British Columbia. Sediment-hosted polymetallic massive sulfide mineralization (silver, copper, gold, zinc and lead) at Adams Plateau is hosted within the prospective Eagle Bay assemblage. The project has excellent infrastructure including extensive road network from past logging activity, power and rail-lines and services are nearby.

Work in 2025 comprised project-wide soil and rock geochemical surveys (Figure 1). Grid-based soil sampling (5,002 samples) was designed to infill and expand on previous surveys aimed at covering the entirety of the prospective Eagle Bay assemblage across the project. Prospecting and rock sampling (83 samples) was also completed near previously reported high-grade soil and rock anomalies.

Results and highlights from 2025 rock sampling program include:

• Lucky-Elsie: High-grade mineralization at the Lucky-Elsie area is characterized by a northeast-southwest trending 1.5 km zone of massive to semi-massive sulfide lenses, following the main foliation, which dips to the northwest. Grab samples from the trend returned up to 2,310 g/t Ag with 20.0% Pb and 1.7% Zn (J039530) and 1,230 g/t Ag with 20.0% Pb and 5.4% Zn (J039524, Figure 2 and Table 1).

• Spar-Ex: High-grade mineralization at the Spar-Ex area is hosted in siliceous and graphitic phyllites of the Eagle Bay Assemblage with sulfides consisting of pyrite, galena, sphalerite, and chalcopyrite. Semi-massive lenses are localized along folds and are locally thickened to approximately 3 m along a strike length of at least 365 meters. Grab samples from the area returned up to 344 g/t Ag with 11.4% Pb and 9.0% Zn (J039509) and 150 g/t Ag with 8.9% Pb and 2.7% Zn (J039758, Figure 2 and Table 1).

Results and highlights from the 2025 soil geochemical survey include:

• Wad-Second (North): Approximately 2 km north of the WAD-Second showing, a northeast trending Pb-Zn-Cu soil anomaly was defined and underlain by the prospective Johnson Lake Unit of the Eagle Bay assemblage. The 500 m by 1,000 m multi-element anomaly is located on the western limb of the property-scale antiform.

• Wad-Second (East): A second, northeast-southwest trending, approximately 1 km long, Ag-Pb-Zn soil anomaly was defined approximately 1 km east of WAD-Second showing. This soil anomaly is underlain by metamorphic rocks of the Eagle Bay assemblage.

• Mosquito King East: A significant coincident Cu-Pb-Zn soil anomaly was outlined 1 km east of the Mosquito King occurrence, trending approximately north-south. The anomaly is underlain by sedimentary rocks of the Eagle Bay assemblage.

• King Tut East: A significant Pb-Zn soil anomaly with a lesser Ag-Cu anomaly was defined 1 km east of the King Tut occurrence on the contact of sedimentary rocks of the Eagle Bay assemblage and a quartz-feldspar porphyry intrusion. The anomalous zone near the hinge of a significant property-scale, north-south trending antiform.

• Spar: A northeast-southwest trending Ag-Pb-Zn-Cu soil anomaly, approximately 1 km SW of the Spar occurrence was defined. The anomaly is underlain by prospective rocks of the Eagle Bay assemblage. The orthogonal orientation of the anomaly with respect to the underlying stratigraphy suggest a structural control on mineralization rather than stratabound.

Next Steps

These new rock and soil geochemical results together with the extensive historical geochemical database will be used to refine high-priority drill targets. The recently granted 5-year multi-year area-based (‘MYAB’) exploration permit provides the Company authorization to drill test many of the targets across the project area.

Quality Assurance & Quality Control

Rock and soil samples were bagged onsite and delivered to ALS Minerals Laboratories in Kamloops, British Columbia. ALS Kamloops / North Vancouver is certified with ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and ISO 9001:2015 accreditation from the Standards Council of Canada.

Rock samples were prepared (CRU-31, SPL-31 and PUL-31) and then analysed for 48 elements by ICP-MS on a 0.25-gram aliquot using a four-acid digestion (method ME-MS61). Gold was analyzed by fire assay on a 30-gram aliquot with an AA finish (Au-AA23). Overlimit samples (e.g. Ag, Cu, Pb & Zn) were re-analyzed using an ore-grade, four-acid digestion and ICP-AES finish (method ME-OG62).

Soil samples were field dried in a temperature-controlled field tent in camp before being shipped to the ALS lab. The samples were then screened to -180 microns (SCR-41) analysed using an aqua regia digestion followed by an ICP-MS finish (method ME-MS41). Gold was analyzed on a 25-gram aliquot with an ICP-MS finish (Au-ST43).

Osisko Metals Incorporated (the ‘ Company ‘ or ‘ Osisko Metals ‘) ( TSX: OM,OTC:OMZNF ; OTCQX: OMZNF ; FRANKFURT: 0B51 ) is pleased to announce new drill results from the Gaspé Copper Project, located in the Gaspé Peninsula of Eastern Québec.

Osisko Metals CEO Robert Wares commented: ‘These latest results continue to confirm and expand our resource model with several long continuous intersections of copper and molybdenum mineralization in the core of the deposit. The new drilling keeps deepening the deposit and again confirms its southern extension with holes 30-1119 and 30-1124. We are excited about the growth of our project, especially within the context of a fundamental rising metal market where copper spot price is rapidly approaching US$5/lb, silver is at US$47/oz and molybdenum is holding steady at over US$30/lb.’

New analytical results are presented below (see Table 1), including 33 mineralized intercepts from nine new drill holes. Infill intercepts are located inside the 2024 MRE model ( see November 14, 2024 news release ), and are focused on upgrading inferred mineral resources to measured or indicated categories, as applicable. Expansion intercepts are located outside the 2024 MRE model and may potentially lead to additional resources that will be classified appropriately within the next MRE update. Some of the reported intercepts have contiguous shallower infill as well as deeper expansion (noted on Table 1 below as ‘Both’). Maps showing hole locations are available at www.osiskometals.com .

Highlights:

Discussion

Drill hole 30-1107, located on top of Copper Mountain near the center of the 2024 MRE model, cut three mineralized intervals including 592.0 metres averaging 0.33 % Cu, 1.68 g/t Ag and 0.032% Mo (which includes 336.6 metres of depth expansion), extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 1003 metres.

Drill hole 30-1112, located on the western flank of Copper Mountain, cut two mineralized intervals including 868.5 metres averaging 0.23 % Cu, 1.45 g/t Ag and 0.019% Mo (which includes 417.0 metres of depth expansion), extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 1119 metres.

Drill hole 30-1113, located on the western margin of the 2024 MRE model, cut multiple intersections of mineralization, 26 to 42 metres thick and distributed in ‘layer cake’ fashion from surface to a vertical depth of 769 metres, confirming the current limit of the 2024 MRE model at this location.

Drill hole 30-1114, located near the eastern margin of the 2024 MRE model, cut multiple intersections of mineralization distributed in ‘layer cake’ fashion from surface to a vertical depth of 950 metres, including 142.1 metres averaging 0.39 % Cu, 1.50 g/t Ag and 0.019% Mo (expansion).

Drill hole 30-1116, located on top of Copper Mountain near the center of the 2024 MRE model, cut six mineralized intervals including 565.5 metres averaging 0.22 % Cu, 1.86 g/t Ag and 0.017% Mo (which includes 96.3 metres of depth expansion), extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 1110 metres.

Drill holes 30-1119 and 30-1124, both located immediately south of the southern margin of the 2024 MRE model, cut multiple intersections of mineralization, including 46.4 metres averaging 1.10 % Cu, 5.08 g/t Ag and 0.032% Mo near and including the E Zone skarn horizon (30-1119) and 203.2 metres averaging 0.37% Cu and 2.81 g/t Ag (30-1124). These intersections extend mineralization to a vertical depth of 619 metres within the southern expansion of the deposit, which remains open towards Needle Mountain East.

Drill hole 30-1121, located 50 metres east of the 2024 MRE model, did not intersect significant mineralization as expected, once again confirming the current eastern limit of the resource model.

Drill hole 30-1122, located on the western flank of Copper Mountain, intersected three mineralized intervals, including 760.5 metres averaging 0.24% Cu, 1.71 g/t Ag and 0.015% Mo (which includes 456.1 metres of depth expansion), extending mineralization in this area to a vertical depth of 1137 metres.

Mineralization at Gaspé Copper is of porphyry copper/skarn type and occurs as disseminations and stockworks of chalcopyrite with pyrite or pyrrhotite and minor bornite and molybdenite. One prograde and at least five retrograde vein/stockwork mineralizing events have been recognized at Copper Mountain, which overprint earlier, bedding replacement skarn and porcellanite-hosted mineralization throughout the Gaspé Copper system. Porcellanite is a historical mining term used to describe bleached, pale green to white potassic-altered hornfels. Subvertical stockwork mineralization dominates at Copper Mountain whereas prograde bedding-parallel mineralization, that is mostly stratigraphically controlled, dominates in the area of lower Copper Mountain, Needle Mountain, Needle East, and Copper Brook. High molybdenum grades (up to 0.5% Mo) were locally obtained in both the C Zone and E Zone skarns away from Copper Mountain.

The 2022 to 2024 Osisko Metals drill programs were focused on defining open-pit resources within the Copper Mountain stockwork mineralization ( see May 6, 2024 MRE press release ). Extending the resource model south of Copper Mountain into the poorly-drilled prograde skarn/porcellanite portion of the system subsequently led to a significantly increased resource, mostly in the Inferred category ( see November 14, 2024 MRE press release ).

The current drill program is designed to convert the November 2024 MRE to Measured and Indicated categories, as well as test the expansion of the system deeper into the stratigraphy and laterally to the south and southwest towards Needle East and Needle Mountain respectively. The November 2024 MRE was limited at depth to the base of the L1 skarn horizon (C Zone), and all mineralized intersections below this horizon represent potential depth extensions to the deposit, to be included in the next scheduled MRE update in Q1 2026.

All holes are being drilled sub-vertically into the altered calcareous stratigraphy which dips 20 to 25 degrees to the north. The L1 (C Zone) the L2 (E Zone) skarn/marble horizons were intersected in most holes, as well as intervening porcellanites that host the bulk of the disseminated copper mineralization.
