Star Metro - Canamera Reviews 2025 Milestones and Outlines Q1 2026 Catalysts

During 2025, Canamera completed $5.57 million in equity financings and acquired, through option agreements, acquisition and / or staking, various interests in five mineral properties across Canada, the United States, and Brazil, adding to its portfolio of rare earth elements and uranium exploration properties in stable, mining-friendly jurisdictions.

"We enter 2026 with a stronger asset base and the capital to advance multiple projects toward key value-creation milestones," stated Brad Brodeur, CEO of Canamera Energy Metals Corp. "With drill results pending from our Turvolandia project in Brazil, sampling results expected from our Iron Hills asset in Colorado, and detailed exploration plans underway for our Schryburt Lake and Garrow properties in Canada as well as the Great Divide in Wyoming, we anticipate an active first quarter."

Near-Term Catalysts - Q1 2026

• Turvolândia REE Project (Brazil): Preliminary results from the first phase of drilling expected in early Q1 2026

• Iron Hill REE Project (Colorado, USA): Rock chip sampling results expected in early Q1 2026

• Garrow Lake REE Project (Ontario, Canada): Exploration plans expected in the first half of Q1 2026

• Schryburt Lake REE Project (Ontario, Canada): Detailed project summary expected later in January 2026

• Great Divide Uranium Project (Wyoming, USA): Development strategy to be presented in the coming weeks

Year-in-Review

Canamera's 2025 activities were guided by growing global emphasis on securing reliable supplies of critical minerals and rare earth elements. Rare earths are essential to defense systems, electrification, renewable energy, and advanced manufacturing, while uranium remains a key component of energy security strategies. The Company's financings and acquisitions were aligned with these priorities, focusing on North American and allied jurisdictions.

The acquisition of various interests in five mineral properties reflects the Company's focus on identifying exploration opportunities with district-scale potential. Following each such acquisition, Canamera undertook systematic reviews of historical data, geological models, and exploration priorities.

Project Portfolio Overview

Turvolândia REE Project - Brazil

The option for the Turvolândia Project is located in southeastern Brazil within a region known for alkaline and carbonatite-related rare earth mineralization. In 2025, Canamera commenced maiden drilling to evaluate REE-bearing targets. Preliminary results from the first phase of drilling are expected in early Q1 2026.

Garrow Lake REE Project - Ontario, Canada

The Garrow Lake Project option agreement is located in Ontario and hosts geological features considered prospective for REE mineralization. Work completed to date has focused on historical data compilation and exploration planning. Exploration plans will be provided in the first half of Q1 2026.

Schryburt Lake REE Project - Ontario, Canada

The Schryburt Lake Joint Venture Project is situated in northern Ontario. Initial efforts have focused on geological review and target generation. A detailed project summary will be provided later in January 2026.

Iron Hill REE Project - Colorado, USA

The Iron Hill Project is located in Colorado, adjacent to a rare earth resource within the Iron Hill alkaline intrusive complex[i]. The project is positioned within a jurisdiction with established infrastructure and regulatory clarity. Results from a rock chip sampling program are expected in the first half of Q1 2026.

Great Divide Uranium Project - Wyoming, USA

The Great Divide Project option is located in Wyoming's Great Divide Basin, a region with established uranium exploration and permitting pathways. The Company's development strategy will be presented in the coming weeks.
