Star Metro - Battery X Metals Completes Foundational Data Preparation and Advances to Processing Phase in AI-Powered Critical Battery Metals Exploration in Nevada, USA, Paving the Way for AI-Generated Targets and Field Validation

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 1, 2025 / Battery X Metals Inc. (CSE:BATX)(OTCQB:BATXF)(FSE:5YW, WKN:A40X9W) ("Battery X Metals" or the "Company") an energy transition resource exploration and technology company, announces that, further to its news release dated April 25, 2025, whereby it disclosed its wholly-owned subsidiary, Battery X Discoveries Inc. ("Battery X Discoveries") has entered into a binding memorandum of understanding (MOU) with TerraDX Discoveries Inc.("TerraDX") and MineMind Metals Inc. to establish a strategic joint venture framework for the collaborative exploration of battery metals in the state of Nevada through the application of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered mineral targeting models, the foundational data preparation phase of the initiative has now been completed, and the project has progressed into the data processing phase.

As part of this transition, representative mineral deposit datasets have been curated and refined for use in training TerraDX's proprietary AI targeting models. This foundational dataset supports the development of machine learning algorithms intended to identify high-probability target zones by recognizing patterns consistent with known mineralization.

Currently, approximately 60 primary data points obtained from publicly and privately available datasets are being processed, each representing a distinct and geologically relevant variable. Through advanced analytical techniques such as feature engineering, these inputs are explored and interpreted in multiple ways to extract deeper insights. This process is expected to enhance the model's ability to detect complex geological relationships and contribute to improved targeting precision in future exploration phases.

TerraDX is a member of the NVIDIA (NVDA:NASDAQ) Inception program, which supports leading AI-focused startups through access to advanced computing infrastructure, technical expertise, and go-to-market support. This affiliation underscores TerraDX's technological leadership and may further strengthen the proposed joint venture's technological innovation profile.

This milestone sets the stage for the next phase of the initiative, which is expected to include the generation of AI-derived exploration targets and the development of preliminary field validation plans. The Company intends to provide a further update upon completion of this phase to report on the progress of the proposed strategic technology-driven partnership. At this stage, the anticipated costs associated with potential target acquisition and field activities remain undetermined and will be disclosed once further details are available.

Battery X Metals' Comprehensive 360° Strategy Across the Battery Metals Value Chain

As previously disclosed in the Company's news release dated February 24, 2025, Battery X Metals is advancing a comprehensive 360° strategy across the battery metals sector. This strategy encompasses the exploration of prospective battery metal properties; the development of proprietary recovery technologies pursued through a prior research collaboration with a globally ranked top 20 university to recover battery-grade materials from end-of-life batteries;¹ and the development and future commercialization of patent-pending software and hardware technology for the extension of the remaining useful lifespan of electric vehicle batteries.

This strategic mineral exploration initiative, powered by AI, is aligned with the Company's broader vision of creating an integrated and technology-driven approach to value creation across the battery metals lifecycle.

^{1 The initial research and collaboration agreement concluded on June 30, 2025. the Company is evaluating a new agreement with the globally ranked top 20 university to continue and expand its prior development work.}
