Star Metro - Noram Adds Additional Critical Mineral to List of High-Value Byproduct Credits in Zeus Project Upgraded PEA

"Preliminary internal modelling suggests that these by-product credits could materially reduce projected operating costs," said Executive Chairman, Sandy MacDougall. "Molybdenum is designated as a critical mineral by the U.S. government due to its importance in defense, infrastructure, aerospace, and advanced manufacturing. As a domestic source of multiple U.S.-designated critical minerals, the Project may also qualify for federal financing, permitting support, and strategic supply chain initiatives. Ultimately, this diversified mineral profile significantly strengthens the long-term economic and strategic value of the Zeus Project."

Primarily used to strengthen steel and high-performance alloys, molybdenum enhances corrosion resistance and heat tolerance in:

• Defense and aerospace components

• Energy infrastructure and pipelines

• LNG facilities

• Industrial manufacturing systems

• Advanced power generation

Global molybdenum supply is structurally constrained, with a significant portion produced as a by-product of copper mining. This dynamic can limit rapid supply expansion and supports long-term industrial relevance.
The Company will evaluate the recoverability and economic contribution of molybdenum as part of ongoing metallurgical and economic studies.

The potential recovery of these additional by-products may:

• Reduce projected lithium production costs through by-product revenue credits

• Diversify revenue streams across energy transition and industrial markets

• Improve projected internal rate of return (IRR) and net present value (NPV) in future economic studies

• Enhance project financing flexibility

• Increase strategic relevance under evolving U.S. critical mineral policy initiatives

As a domestic source of multiple designated critical minerals, the Zeus Project would be well-positioned for consideration under federal programs supporting supply chain resilience, permitting efficiency, and critical mineral development.
