Canada One Mining Corp. (TSXV: CONE) (OTC Pink: COMCF) (FSE: AU31) (‘Canada One’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to provide an exploration review of the Boundary Zone at its 100% owned Copper Dome Project, (‘Copper Dome’, ‘Project’ or ‘Property’), Princeton B.C.

BOUNDARY ZONE HISTORICAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • Extensive Copper-gold Zone Defined
    • mobile metal Ion (MMI) sampling has delineated a strong, north-northeasterly striking Cu-Au anomalous corridor
    • measuring approximately 1,000 m wide and 1,750 m long
    • open to both the north-northeast toward the Copper Mountain Mine deposits (1.5 km away) and the south-southwest
  • High-Grade Copper in Soils and Rocks
    • numerous MMI copper values exceed 10,000 ppb
    • rock sampling within the zone assayed 1.06 % Cu, 0.17 g/t Au, and 0.46 g/t Pd1
  • Zinc-Lead-Cadmium Depletion
    • MMI sampling in the zone returned depleted Zn-Pb-Cd, consistent with the core of a Cu porphyry system
  • Potassic Alteration
    • MMI sampling returned elevated potassium values indicating potassic alteration, a diagnostic feature of Cu porphyry systems

Peter Berdusco, President and CEO of the Company commented: ‘The Boundary Zone historical results outline a broad copper-gold system extending toward Copper Mountain. Copper values above 10,000 ppb and evidence of potassic alteration are consistent with porphyry-style mineralization. These findings make the Boundary Zone a clear focus for detailed geochemical and geophysical follow-up head of future drill targeting.’

Boundary Review

The main feature of this area is a very dominant copper-gold anomalous zone that also contains silver and molybdenum anomalies. It strikes north northeasterly, has an approximate width of 1,000 meters, and has a minimum strike length of 1,750 meters being open to the north-northeast towards one of the Copper Mountain Mine pits which are only 1,500 meters away. It is also open to the south-southwest.

The copper results are especially high with many of the values above 10,000 ppb. Two rock samples taken within this anomaly contain copper mineralization with one of these samples also containing gold. In addition, at the southwest edge of the anomaly where it is open to the southwest two rock samples taken also containing copper mineralization with gold.

The copper-gold anomalous zone is also somewhat devoid of anomalous values in zinc, lead, and cadmium. Most of the anomalous values in these elements occur outside of the main zone, especially to the east. Certain types of porphyry copper deposits are known to contain zinc mineralization around their peripheries. Another feature is the potassium values which are higher within the anomalous zone. This indicates potassic alteration, often associated with porphyry copper deposits.

Niobium, titanium, yttrium, and zirconium values were also plotted since these four elements indicate Lost Horse intrusive which on the Copper Mountain mine site, either hosts and/or is adjacent to copper mineralization. In general, these elements are somewhat lower within the anomalous zone, but higher outside, especially to the east. This indicates the possibility that the Lost Horse intrusive may occur to the immediate east of the anomalous zone.1

Management cautions that past results, discoveries and mineralization on Copper Mountain are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on Copper Dome.

About The Copper Dome Project

Copper Dome is located in the lower Quesnel Trough porphyry belt, one of British Columbia’s most prolific mining districts. The Project directly adjoins Hudbay Minerals Inc.’s (TSX: HBM) producing Copper Mountain Mine to the north which hosts Proven and Probable Reserves of 702 million tonnes grading 0.24% Cu, 0.09 g/t Au, and 0.72 g/t Ag (hudbayminerals.com). Multiple mineralized zones have been identified across the Property, with historical drilling confirming high-grade copper associated with northeast-trending structures similar to those hosting mineralization at Copper Mountain.

The Project benefits from excellent infrastructure, enabling year-round access, cost-efficient exploration, and a stable, low-risk jurisdiction.

Historical Work Completed

  • Geophysics: 51 km of induced polarization (IP); airborne magnetic and electromagnetic (EM) coverage over ~50% of the Property
  • Sampling: 2,253 soils and 378 rocks collected
  • Drilling: 8,900+ m of diamond drilling
  • Trenching: Over 1 km excavated

With a five-year drill permit in place, the Company is focused on advancing the Project toward drill-ready target definition.

Alvopetro Energy Ltd. (TSXV:ALV,OTC:ALVOF) (OTCQX: ALVOF) announces an operational update and financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.  

All references herein to $ refer to United States dollars, unless otherwise stated and all tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, except as otherwise noted.

President & CEO, Corey C. Ruttan commented:

‘Our sales in Brazil in October averaged 2,766 boepd, a 34% increase from September. Our Western Canadian assets added an additional 157 bopd bringing our company average up to 2,923 boepd, a new record for Alvopetro. On our 100% owned Murucututu project in Brazil, our 183-D4 well achieved IP30 rates of 1,071 boepd, significantly above our pre-drill estimates. This result helps strengthen our longer-term growth plans in Brazil. Our success in Brazil is being complimented by our Western Canadian capital program and our recently expanded partnership covering virtually all of the Saskatchewan portion of the Mannville Stack Heavy Oil play fairway. We are in a strong position to continue our disciplined capital allocation model, balancing returns to stakeholders and investing in high rate of return growth opportunities in Brazil and the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin.’

Oil sale volumes in Brazil relate to the Bom Lugar and Mãe da lua fields. Alvopetro has entered into an assignment agreement to dispose of the fields, the closing of which is subject to standard regulatory approvals, including approval of the ANP.

(2)

Alvopetro reported volumes are based on sales volumes which, due to the timing of sales deliveries, may differ from production volumes.

October sales volumes increased to 2,923 boepd, including 2,766 boepd from Brazil (with natural gas sales of 15.3 MMcfpd, associated natural gas liquids sales from condensate of 206 bopd, and oil sales of 18 bopd) and 157 bopd from oil sales in Canada, based on field estimates, setting a new record for sales volumes at Alvopetro. In Brazil, sales volumes increased 34% over September and 25% over Q3 2025 following Alvopetro and Bahiagas agreeing to a spot contract with discounted pricing for volumes above our firm contract reference volumes of 400 e3m3/d (14.1 MMcfpd).

Quarterly Natural Gas Pricing Update

As previously announced, effective November 1, 2025, our natural gas price under our long-term gas sales agreement was adjusted to BRL1.81/m3 and will apply to firm natural gas sales (up to 400,000 m3/d) from November 1, 2025 to January 31, 2026. Based on our average heat content to date and the October 31, 2025 BRL/USD exchange rate of 5.38, our expected realized price at the new contracted price is $10.15/Mcf, net of applicable sales taxes, a decrease of 8% from the Q3 2025 realized price of $11.04/Mcf due mainly to lower Henry Hub prices in the third quarter. Amounts ultimately received in equivalent USD will be impacted by exchange rates in effect during the period November 1, 2025 to January 31, 2026. Natural gas sales above 400,000 m3/d are currently being sold on a flexible basis under spot contracts at discounts to our firm contracted price.

Development Activities – Brazil

On our 100% owned Murucututu field, the 183-D4 well was completed in seven intervals in the third quarter. With this well on production from the field since late August, third quarter natural gas sales from Murucututu increased to 3.6 MMcfpd (+199% from Q2 2025) and October natural gas sales increased further to 6.1 MMcfpd.

Our joint development on the unitized area (‘the Unit’), which includes our Caburé field, continued in the third quarter and four wells (2.2 net) were drilled. Three of the wells have now been completed and brought on production. We are planning a sidetrack of the fourth well due to challenges encountered while executing the final phase of the well. The timing of drilling the fifth planned development well (0.6 net) is subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals.

Development Activities – Western Canada

In the third quarter, two additional wells were drilled (1.0 net to Alvopetro) and commenced production in September. As previously announced, we entered into an expanded area of mutual interest (‘Expanded AMI’) with our existing partner. Under the terms of the Expanded AMI, we have agreed to fund 100% of two earning wells to earn a 50% working interest in an additional 46.9 sections of land (15,010 net acres). The two earning wells are expected to commence drilling in late 2025. After drilling, Alvopetro will have a 50% interest in 74.4 sections of land (23,900 net acres).

Financial and Operating Highlights – Third Quarter of 2025

  • Average daily sales in Q3 2025 were 2,343 boepd(1) (+11% from Q3 2024 and -4% from Q2 2025). In Brazil, daily sales averaged 2,205 boepd (+5% compared to Q3 2024 and -4% from Q2 2025) and in Canada, oil sales averaged 138 bopd in the quarter (consistent with Q2 2025).
  • Our average realized natural gas price was $11.04/Mcf (+1% from Q3 2024 and +4% from Q2 2025). Our overall averaged realized sales price per boe was $65.76/boe (-1% from Q3 2024 and +4% from Q2 2025).
  • Our natural gas, oil and condensate revenue increased to $14.2 million (+10% from Q3 2024 and +1% from Q2 2025). Compared to Q3 2024, the increase was driven by higher overall sales volumes, partially offset by lower realized prices. Compared to Q2 2025, the increase was as a result of higher realized prices, partially offset by lower sales volumes.
  • Our operating netback(2) in the quarter was $55.90 per boe, a decrease of $3.29 per boe compared to Q3 2024 due mainly to addition of lower overall netbacks from Canadian operations. Compared to Q2 2025, our operating netback increased $1.18 per boe with higher realized prices, partially offset by higher royalties, production expenses and transportation expenses.
  • We generated funds flows from operations(2) of $10.4 million ($0.28 per basic and per diluted share), increases of $0.6 million compared to Q3 2024 and $0.1 million compared to Q2 2025.
  • We reported net income of $4.6 million ($0.12 per basic and diluted share), a decrease of $2.5 million compared to Q3 2024 due mainly to impairment losses and higher depletion and depreciation expenses recognized in Q3 2025, partially offset by higher revenues with increased sales volumes, and lower tax expenses.
  • Capital expenditures totaled $11.2 million, including completion costs for the 183-D4 well on Alvopetro’s 100% Murucututu field, Alvopetro’s share of unit development costs on the Cabure field and Alvopetro’s share of costs to drill and equip an additional two wells (1.0 net) in Saskatchewan.
  • Our working capital(2) surplus was $2.2 million as of September 30, 2025, decreasing $4.6 million from June 30, 2025.

Operating netback is calculated as natural gas, oil and condensate revenues less royalties, production expenses, and transportation expenses. This calculation is provided in the ‘Operating Netback‘ section of the Company’s MD&A using our IFRS measures. The Company’s MD&A may be accessed through the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca. Operating netback is a common metric used in the oil and gas industry used to demonstrate profitability from operations.

Non-GAAP Financial Ratios

Operating Netback per boe

Operating netback is calculated on a per unit basis, which is per barrel of oil equivalent (‘boe’). It is a common non-GAAP measure used in the oil and gas industry and management believes this measurement assists in evaluating the operating performance of the Company. It is a measure of the economic quality of the Company’s producing assets and is useful for evaluating variable costs as it provides a reliable measure regardless of fluctuations in production. Alvopetro calculated operating netback per boe as operating netback divided by total sales volumes (boe). This calculation is provided in note 3 of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements and in the ‘Operating Netback‘ section of the Company’s MD&A using our IFRS measures. The Company’s MD&A may be accessed through the SEDAR+ website at www.sedarplus.ca. Operating netback is a common metric used in the oil and gas industry used to demonstrate profitability from operations on a per boe basis.

Operating netback margin

Operating netback margin is calculated as operating netback per boe divided by the realized sales price per boe. Operating netback margin is a measure of the profitability per boe relative to natural gas, oil and condensate sales revenues per boe and is calculated as follows:

Capital Management Measures

Funds Flow from Operations 

Funds flow from operations is a non-GAAP capital management measure that includes all cash generated from operating activities and is calculated before changes in non-cash working capital. The most comparable GAAP measure to funds flow from operations is cash flows from operating activities. Management considers funds flow from operations important as it helps evaluate financial performance and demonstrates the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash to fund future growth opportunities. Funds flow from operations should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash flows from operating activities however management finds that the impact of working capital items on the cash flows reduces the comparability of the metric from period to period. A reconciliation of funds flow from operations to cash flows from operating activities is as follows:

Transportation expenses per boe‘ is comprised of transportation expenses, as determined in accordance with IFRS, divided by the total natural gas, NGL and oil sales volumes (barrels of oil equivalent).

BOE Disclosure

The term barrels of oil equivalent (‘boe’) may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet per barrel (6 Mcf/bbl) of natural gas to barrels of oil equivalence is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. All boe conversions in this news release are derived from converting gas to oil in the ratio mix of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil.

Contracted Natural Gas Volumes

The 2025 contracted daily firm volumes under Alvopetro’s long-term gas sales agreement of 400 e3m3/d (before any provisions for take or pay allowances) represents contracted volumes based on contract referenced natural gas heating value. Alvopetro’s reported natural gas sales volumes are prior to any adjustments for heating value of Alvopetro natural gas. Alvopetro’s natural gas is approximately 7.8% higher than the contract reference heating value. Therefore, to satisfy the contractual firm deliveries Alvopetro would be required to deliver approximately 371e3m3/d (13.1MMcfpd).

Well Results

Data obtained from the 183-D4 well identified in this press release, including initial production rates, should be considered preliminary. There is no representation by Alvopetro that the data relating to the 183-D4 well contained in this press release is necessarily indicative of long-term performance or ultimate recovery. The reader is cautioned not to unduly rely on such data as such data may not be indicative of future performance of the well or of expected production or operational results for Alvopetro in the future.

The global lithium market saw sharp swings in Q3 2025 as shifting supply dynamics, policy uncertainty, and geopolitical developments reshaped investor sentiment.

After hitting a four-year low in June, benchmark lithium carbonate prices briefly surged to an 11 month high in August on speculation of Australian supply cuts, before easing to US$11,185 per metric ton by quarter’s end.

Market watchers say sentiment-driven moves continue to dominate a sector still facing oversupply, while US policy shifts and China’s regulatory measures add further uncertainty to the outlook.

Against this backdrop, Canadian lithium stocks are gaining attention as investors look for companies positioned to benefit from long-term demand growth while navigating short-term price pressure.

1. Consolidated Lithium Metals (TSXV:CLM)

Year-to-date gain: 500 percent
Market cap: C$23.36 million
Share price: C$0.060

Consolidated Lithium Metals is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on acquiring, developing and advancing lithium projects in Québec. Its properties — Vallée, Baillargé, Preissac-LaCorne and Duval — are located within the spodumene-rich La Corne Batholith area, near the restarted North American Lithium mine, a key area in Canada’s growing lithium sector.

Consolidated Lithium started the year with a C$300 million private placement earmarked for working capital and general corporate purposes.

In July, the company commenced its 2025 summer exploration program at the Preissac project, excavating a 100-by-30-meter trench in an area with a known lithium soil anomaly, uncovering an 18-meter-wide pegmatite body at surface.

Twenty-five channel samples were collected and sent for analysis, while additional soil and biogeochemical sampling was conducted to further assess lithium-bearing pegmatites on site.

At the end of August, Consolidated Lithium signed a non-binding letter of intent with SOQUEM, a subsidiary of Investissement Québec, to acquire an option to earn up to an 80 percent interest in the Kwyjibo rare earth project.

The project is located roughly 125 kilometers northeast of Sept-Îles in Québec’s Côte-Nord region.

The acquisition news led to a share price spike for the company. While the company has made no recent announcements, an uptick in lithium prices in October helped Consolidated shares rally further to a year-to-date high of C$0.06 on October 22 and again on October 28.

2. Stria Lithium (TSXV:SRA)

Year-to-date gain: 416.67 percent
Market cap: C$12.22 million
Share price: C$0.31

Stria Lithium is a Canadian exploration company focused on developing domestic lithium resources to support the growing demand for electric vehicles and lithium-ion batteries.

The company’s flagship Central Pontax lithium project spans 36 square kilometers in Québec’s Eeyou Istchee James Bay region.

Cygnus Metals (TSXV:CYG) has an earn-in agreement with Stria to earn up to a 70 percent interest in the Pontax project. Cygnus completed the first stage in July 2023, acquiring a 51 percent interest by investing C$4 million in exploration and issuing over 9 million shares to Stria.

Through its joint venture with Cygnus, Stria has outlined a JORC-compliant maiden inferred resource of 10.1 million metric tons grading 1.04 percent Li2O.

At the start of 2025 Stria closed a non-brokered private placement for C$650,000. The funds will be used in part for the evaluation of new mineral opportunities, according to the company.

In May, Stria and Cygnus agreed to extend the second stage of Cygnus’s earn-in agreement on the Pontax lithium project by 24 months.

Shares of Stria registered a year-to-date high of C$0.38 on October 16, coinciding with rising lithium prices.

3. Lithium South Development (TSXV:LIS)

Year-to-date gain: 280 percent
Market cap: C$42.79 million
Share price: C$0.38

Canada-based Lithium South Development owns 100 percent of the HMN lithium project in Argentina’s Salta and Catamarca provinces, situated in the heart of the lithium-rich Hombre Muerto Salar. The project lies adjacent to active lithium operations, including Rio Tinto’s (ASX:RIO,NYSE:RIO,LSE:RIO) lithium operations to the south and South Korean company POSCO Holdings’ (NYSE:PKX,KRX:005490) billion-dollar lithium development to the east.

Exploration has defined a NI 43-101 compliant resource of 1.58 million metric tons of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE) at an average grade of 736 milligrams per liter lithium, with the majority in the measured category.

A preliminary economic assessment outlines the potential for a 15,600 metric ton per year lithium carbonate operation, and the company is advancing the project toward a feasibility study.

In January 2024, Lithium South and POSCO signed an agreement to jointly develop the HMN lithium project. Under the deal, the companies will share production 50/50 from the Norma Edith and Viamonte blocks in Salta and Catamarca, resolving overlapping claims.

As for 2025, at the end of July, Lithium South received a non-binding cash offer of US$62 million from POSCO for HMN and all of Lithium South’s other concessions in the Hombre Muerto Salar.

The offer is subject to a 60 day due diligence period and a subsequent 60 day negotiation and execution phase for a definitive agreement, the company said. As of late September, the due diligence has largely been completed and the companies are negotiating the definitive agreement.

Company shares surged to C$0.41 in early August following the news. Shares rose to a year-to-date high of C$0.415 on October 24, likely in conjunction with lithium price positivity.

4. Standard Lithium (TSXV:SLI)

Year-to-date gain: 152.83 percent
Market cap: C$1.28 billion
Share price: C$5.36

Standard Lithium is a US-focused lithium development company advancing a portfolio of high-grade lithium-brine projects with an emphasis on sustainability and commercial-scale production.

The company employs a fully integrated direct lithium extraction process and is developing its flagship Smackover Formation assets in Arkansas and Texas, including the South West Arkansas project in partnership with Equinor ASA, under the joint venture subsidiary Smackover Lithium.

Standard is also actively exploring additional lithium brine opportunities in East Texas.

In April, the South West Arkansas project was one of 10 US critical minerals projects designated for fast-tracking under FAST-41.

According to Standard’s Q2 2025 results released in August, Smackover Lithium reported strong progress on its South West Arkansas project during the quarter.

Exploration for the project’s Phase 1 operations concluded, and the Lester exploration well yielded the highest lithium brine grades to date, averaging 582 milligrams per liter and peaking at 616 milligrams per liter. Key regulatory milestones included the Arkansas Oil and Gas Commission approving a 2.5 percent royalty rate and granting brine production unit approval for Phase 1.

Additionally, through a partnership with Telescope Innovations the company advanced a new process to convert lithium hydroxide into battery-grade lithium sulfide.

In September, Standard Lithium reported results of its definitive feasibility study (DFS) for the South West Arkansas project with a targeted first production date in 2028.

The DFS notes an initial capacity of 22,500 metric tons per year of battery-grade lithium carbonate. The study outlines a 20-year-plus operating life based on average lithium concentrations of 481 milligrams per liter, supported by detailed resource and reserve modeling.

The company officially filed the DFS on October 14, leading to a share price bump and year-to-date high of C$7.65 on October 16.

5. United Lithium (CSE:ULTH)

Year-to-date gains: 94.12 percent
Market cap: C$15.75 million
Share price: C$0.33

Exploration and development company United Lithium owns a portfolio of global assets in Sweden, Finland and the United States. The company’s primary focus is the Bergby lithium project in Central Sweden.

In March, United Lithium reported positive results from mineralogical test work on four pegmatite samples — B, C, D and E — at the Bergby project. The study analyzed the chemical and mineralogical composition of the samples to better understand the lithium-bearing LCT (lithium, cesium, tantalum) pegmatites.

An October 17 announcement from United reported it entered a binding letter of intent to acquire all issued and outstanding shares of Swedish Minerals. If the deal goes through, it will create a Nordic-based company with lithium, uranium and rare earth projects.

Under the agreement, United Lithium will issue Swedish Minerals shareholders 25 million common shares of United at C$0.20 each and pay C$450,000 in cash, subject to regulatory approval.

Shares of United Lithium spiked following the acquisition news and continued upward to a year-to-date high of C$0.35 on October 27.

‘We are pleased to formalise this MoU with Hazen Research Inc. after our recent collaboration casting a 100% American made ingot. This MoU represents an important step in de-risking our ore processing strategy and accelerating the path to revenue. By securing toll processing capacity in the United States, we can begin generating operational data and product while our pilot and commercial-scale plant development continues in parallel.

This approach allows us to maintain project momentum, optimise metallurgical performance, and provide early market supply, positioning the Company to deliver value to shareholders efficiently and safely. We look forward to working closely with Hazen Research Inc. as we progress towards full commercial operations. The U.S. Government’s clear prioritisation of domestic critical mineral production provides a strong backdrop for our accelerated execution. We are advancing with the right partners, the right timing and clear commercial intent.’

Advancing Multiple Concurrent Workstreams to Steady State Production

With successful validation of the 100% American made antimony ingot, as part of our execution strategy, Locksley Resources will now advance concurrent workstreams toward production, including toll processing, starter plant and commercial plant development.

Further to this, the Company’s executive team recently engaged in-person with U.S based Tier 1 engineering firms, EPCM contractors and execution partners to progress its project delivery strategy.

Concurrently with the toll production operation, the Company is also actively advancing the pilot/starter plant development, informed by the results of ongoing metallurgical test work.

These parallel workstreams are intended to accelerate the transition from pilot scale operations to commercial production, de-risking the development pathway and providing early operational insights to optimise future plant performance. This next phase will support offtake readiness and qualification for domestic supply contracts, further positioning Locksley as a pioneer in restoring America’s antimony production and processing capability.

The Company’s collaboration with Rice University continues in parallel, supporting the optimisation of hydrometallurgical extraction parameters and the development of antimony-based materials. Locksley’s Mojave Project represents one of the few known high-grade, primary antimony deposits located in continental U.S., offering a rapid path to production and a strategic alternative to Chinese controlled supply chains.

Next Steps:

The parties will now progress discussions to formalise definitive agreements for toll processing, with the aim of commencing operations in line with the project development schedule. With government backed financing, strategic U.S. processing partnerships with Hazen and Rice University, and a rapid development pathway in motion, Locksley is entering its most transformative phase. The Company is uniquely positioned to deliver one of the first fully American sourced antimony supply chains, advancing from mine validation to market readiness within an accelerated timeline.

Perth, Australia (ABN Newswire) – Red Mountain Mining Limited (ASX:RMX) (OTCMKTS:RMXFF), a Critical Minerals exploration and development company with active projects in Tier-1 Mining Districts in the United States and Australia, has announced the Company’s advanced progression towards a US Stock Exchange listing.

HIGHLIGHTS

– Red Mountain Mining has recently appointed a highly regarded US-based markets advisory team and is in the final stages of confirming a US Stock Market listing on the OTCQB under the US Stock Code ‘RMXFF’

– In 2024, over US$478 billion (AU$732 billion) in liquidity and volume flowed through the United States OTC Markets Group’s exchanges

– Red Mountain has secured multiple US antimony assets in Tier-1 mining districts since mid September 2025, with projects located adjacent to high value, major Antimony projects, including Perpetua Resources’ (NASDAQ:PPTA) Stibnite Project in Idaho and Trigg Minerals’ (ASX:TMG) Antimony Canyon Project in Utah

– Red Mountain has also made significant progress at its Armidale Antimony-Gold Project in the New England Orogen in New South Wales, the location of Larvotto Resources’ (ASX:LRV) Hillgrove project, which is Australia’s largest Antimony deposit and the target of a recent acquisition proposal by United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE:UAMY)

– Following highly encouraging inbound interest received from several US investment banks, the Red Mountain Board believes the planned US Stock Market listing provides a series of value accretive opportunities including:

o Providing US retail and institutional investors direct access to invest and trade in the Company’s shares on the OTCQB under the US Stock Code ‘RMXFF’

o Positioning RMXFF alongside US peers in the critical minerals sector, potentially further improving valuation metrics and attracting specialised US resources investors

o Improving Red Mountain’s current strong strategic alignment with the US Government’s dramatic push to secure a domestic supply of critical minerals, and better positioning the Company to benefit from strong US Federal financial support for critical mineral projects targeting antimony

– Red Mountain expects to confirm the ‘RMXFF’ listing date by next week

Red Mountain has recently appointed its US-based markets advisory team and is in the final stages of confirming a US Stock Market listing on the OTCQB under the US Stock Code ‘RMXFF’. Since mid-September 2025, Red Mountain has pursued an aggressive acquisition strategy, securing three US antimony assets in Tier-1 mining districts since mid-September 2025, with projects located adjacent to high value, major antimony projects, including Perpetua Resources’ (NASDAQ:PPTA) Stibnite Project in Idaho and Trigg Minerals’ (ASX:TMG) Antimony Canyon Project in Utah.

RMX has also made significant progress during 2025 within its Armidale Antimony-Gold Project in the New England Orogen in New South Wales, by demonstrating high-grade orogenic antimony mineralisation with associated gold at multiple prospects. RMX’s project hosts a similar style of mineralisation and is located within the same prospective geological province as of Larvotto Resources’ (ASX:LRV) (A$540m market cap) Hillgrove project, which is Australia’s largest Antimony deposit and the target of a recent acquisition proposal by United States Antimony Corporation (NYSE:UAMY) (A$1.5b market cap.).

US Government focused on building domestic Antimony supply

Presently, about 90% of global antimony production is controlled by China, Russia, and Tajikistan, which is creating significant supply risks for Western nations such as Australia and the US. Both countries currently have no producing antimony mines, despite the metal’s critical role in defence applications, including armament manufacture and semiconductor technologies. With China’s current export ban creating acute supply shortages and the antimony price recently reaching US$60,000 per tonne, the US Government has issued emergency declarations and mobilised unprecedented funding for domestic production.

The majority of the available US Federal funding is being directed under White House led initiatives and includes opportunities such as:

– The Export-Import Bank (EXIM) Supply Chain Resiliency Initiative (SCRI), which will provide financing for international projects with signed long-term ‘off-take’ contracts with U.S. companies, providing these U.S. companies with access to critical minerals from partner countries.

– EXIM’s China and Transformational Exports Program (CTEP), which provides funding in strategic sectors like critical minerals to support American companies in projects that might otherwise be lost to China, aligning with the U.S.’s broader goals to boost supply chain resilience and national economic competitiveness.

– Defense Production Act Title III funding for strategic materials, which partners with U.S. private industry to mitigate gaps in the domestic supply chain through the use of grants, purchase commitments, loans, or loan guarantees.

An indication of the potential level of investment available to high quality projects is demonstrated by Locksley Resources’ (ASX:LKY,OTC:LKYRF) announcement this week that it had secured a Letter of Interest from EXIM indicating potential financing support of up to US$191 million for Locksley’s Mojave Antimony-REE Project in California.

On 21 October, the US President and Australian Prime Minister executed a Critical Minerals Framework agreement, through which the two governments have committed to spend at least US$1 billion each in the next six months as direct investment into a pipeline of critical minerals projects in in the US and Australia.

EXIM has also partnered with Export Finance Australia (EFA), to establish a streamlined pathway for businesses to approach both agencies and enable faster referrals and joint financing of eligible critical mineral transactions, known as the Single Point of Entry. Through this agreement, US and Australian businesses may now approach either EXIM or EFA and will receive streamlined access to both agencies’ financing support.

Red Mountain is already well placed to respond to these opportunities through continued successful progression of the Armidale Antimony-Gold Project, rapid exploration of three recently acquired highly prospective antimony-gold projects in Utah and Idaho, USA, and planned additional US antimony projects currently under consideration for acquisition. The Board strongly believes that the Company’s US Stock Market listing will provide Red Mountain with increased visibility to specialised US resources investors and provide a strong platform to directly benefit from US Federal financial support for critical mineral projects targeting antimony.

Red Mountain Utah Antimony Project, USA

In September, Red Mountain announced the acquisition of 87 claims within the Antimony Mining district east of the town of Antimony, Utah, USA. The Antimony Mining district was discovered in 1879 and produced high-grade Sb ores from multiple small-scale mines from 1880 to about 1908 and intermittently into the 1960s. RMX’s claims lie immediately along strike to the north and south of Trigg Minerals’ (ASX:TMG) Antimony Canyon Project (Figure 1*), which includes more than 30 small historical mine workings surrounding both Antimony Canyon and Drywash Canyon, approximately 6km north of the main prospect.

Antimony Mining District – Antimony Mineralisation

Antimony mineralisation within the Antimony Mining district is related to an approximately northsouth trending fault system, which is interpreted to represent fault splays related to the Paunsaugunt Fault. These faults are thought to have provided pathways for hydrothermal fluids from nearby volcanic centres to migrate upward towards favourable stratigraphic horizons, where antimony typically occurs as stibnite veins and stockwork zones sub-parallel to flat-lying stratigraphy. The dominant host for mineralisation at Antimony Canyon and Drywash Canyon is the Early Palaeocene Flagstaff Formation, which comprises carbonate-rich fluvial sandstone and conglomerate, with TMG’s recent exploration concluding that a brittle felsic volcaniclastic horizon within the Formation is the most prospective host unit, but that mineralisation is present at multiple stratigraphic levels, implying potential for both laterally and vertically extensive mineralisation. Channel sampling within and adjacent to historical workings by TMG at Antimony Canyon and Drywash Canyon delivered multiple samples with antimony contents in excess of 10% Sb and a best result of 1.5m at 33.2% Sbfrom the Stebenite Mine in Antimony Canyon.

Antimony Canyon and Drywash Canyon represent two eroded windows into the Flagstaff Formation through a thin (interpreted to be mostly <20m thick), but laterally extensive blanket of Quarternary alluvial and colluvial sedimentary cover (Figure 1*). However, north-south trending faults that provide fluid conduits for antimony-rich mineralising fluids and the Flagstaff Formation host stratigraphy are interpreted to extend beneath the Quaternary cover and into RMX’s tenements. RMX therefore believes that our Utah Antimony Project has high potential for discovery similar mineralisation to that seen at Antimony Canyon and Drywash Canyon.

Red Mountain Yellow Pine Antimony Project, Idaho, USA

In September, Red Mountain announced the acquisition of 29 claims, less than 2km southwest of Perpetua Resources’ (NASDAQ:PPTA) (TSE:PPTA) Stibnite Gold-Antimony Project in central Idaho, USA.

RMX’s Yellow Pine Antimony Project (Figure 2*) is located within the Stibnite Mining District, which was a major source of antimony in the first half of the 20th Century. Recorded production from the Yellow Pine and Hangar Flats deposits between 1932 and 1952 totalled 39,930 tonnes of Antimony.

These two deposits and the West End Deposit, which produced gold and silver from 1978 to 1997, collectively comprise the Proven and Probable Reserve of 104 Mt @ 1.33g/t Au and 0.06% Sb for 4.8Moz Au and 148Mlbs Sb for Perpetua’s Stibnite Project, which is the largest known antimony deposit in the USA. The rich endowment and exploration potential of the Stibnite District has also been recognised by Resolution Minerals (ASX:RML), whose Horse Heaven Antimony Project lies immediately west of Perpetua’s claims and approximately 5km north of RMX’s project area.

Antimony-gold-tungsten mineralisation in the Stibnite Mineral District

Antimony-gold-tungsten mineralisation in the Stibnite Mining District is structurally controlled along early Tertiary north-south striking regional scale faults and smaller northeast-striking splays and is hosted in the Cretaceous granitoids of the Idaho Batholith and adjacent Neoproterozoic to Paleozoic metasedimentary roof pendant rocks (Gillerman et al., 1992).

2017 geological mapping by the Idaho Geological Survey shows that RMX’s claims feature similar prospective geology to that seen within the Perpetua Resources’ Stibnite Project area, with folded Ordovician to Cambrian metasediments intruded by Idaho Batholith granite and cut by a major NNE trending Tertiary fault, with associated tectonic brecciation and evidence of historical small-scale mining activity (Figure 3*).

There is no evidence of modern exploration activity within RMX’s claims. However, reconnaissance mapping by RMX’s field crew has confirmed the presence of tectonic breccias within quartzite associated with the main NNE-trending fault (Figure 3*), which indicates that hydrothermal fluid circulation occurred along the structure. Red Mountain geologists also successfully located the two eastern historical workings mapped by the Idaho Geological Survey, which are small shallow pits that appear to be targeting brecciated quartz veins, most likely seeking gold and/or antimony.

Red Mountain Silver Dollar Antimony Project, Idaho, USA

In October, Red Mountain announced the acquisition of a further claims in central Idaho, covering 2 km2 with demonstrated historical antimony production. The Silver Dollar Antimony Project lies approximately 75km southeast of both RMX’s Yellow Pine Antimony Project, and Perpetua Resources’ Stibnite Gold-Antimony Project.

RMX’s Silver Dollar claims encompass four known alluvial gold and two antimony mineral occurrences, including the Silver Dollar Mine (Figure 4*), which features a 10m deep shaft sunk into fractured granodiorite in 1944, targeting a massive stibnite vein up to 1m thick.

Choate (1962) concluded that there was significant untested potential remaining for additional antimony, gold, silver, uranium and possibly mercury mineralisation, which is likely to occur as pods or shoots where secondary structures intersect each other and the main NNE-striking fault that cuts RMX’s Silver Dollar claims. To RMX’s knowledge, there has been no exploration over the prospect subsequent to Choate’s assessment.

Red Mountain Armidale Antimony-Gold Project, New South Wales, Australia

During 2025, Red Mountain has demonstrated high-grade orogenic antimony mineralisation with associated gold at multiple prospects within the Company’s Armidale Antimony-Gold Project (EL9732) in the Southern New England Orogen (SNEO) of northeast New South Wales, by demonstrating highgrade orogenic antimony mineralisation with associated gold at multiple prospects The SNEO is widely recognised as Australia’s premier antimony province, with 250 antimony mineral occurrences identified in the Geological Survey of NSW mineral occurrence database (Figure 5*).

Antimony occurs in hydrothermal quartz veins, breccias and stockworks, often with associated gold and/or tungsten mineralisation.

Red Mountain continues aggressive acquisition strategy

Red Mountain continues to aggressively seek further opportunities to expand its portfolio of high quality antimony projects in Tier 1 US mining jurisdictions, with a goal of building a portfolio of assets to leverage what is an unprecedented critical shortage of Western supply of the metal. Subject to the satisfactory completion of due diligence, the Company expects to announce further highly prospective acquisition/s in the near term.
