Uraniumx Reports Strong Financial Position Ahead of Spring Drill Program

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / May 1, 2026 / UraniumX Discovery Corp. (CSE:STMN)(OTC PINK:STMXF)(FSE:A41L7T) (the "Company" or "UraniumX") is pleased to provide a financial update following the filing of its condensed interim consolidated financial statements and management discussion and analysis for the six months ended February 28, 2026, and to announce the engagement of a digital marketing services provider.

Financial Highlights

The Company enters the spring 2026 exploration season from a position of financial strength and a structural supply deficit underpinning sustained demand for Basin stage exploration. As of February 28, 2026, UraniumX reported cash and cash equivalents of $5,310,730, total current assets of $6,531,447, working capital of $5,983,872, and total assets of $10,153,316. Total shareholders' equity stood at $9,605,741.

Exploration and evaluation assets totaled $2,498,869 across the Company's portfolio of Athabasca Basin properties, including Murphy Lake, Zoo Bay, and NeoCore. The Company also has $2,123,000 in flow through commitments to be deployed on qualifying Canadian exploration expenditures by December 31, 2026, providing additional guaranteed exploration capital directed at its properties.

"With over $5 million in cash, including more than $2 million committed to qualifying exploration expenditures, we're fully funded to execute our drill program at Murphy Lake this spring and maintain the operational momentum we have been building since the rebrand. Ken Wheatley's 47 years of Athabasca Exploration guiding our technical strategy gives us conviction that we are drilling the right targets in the right basin at the right time," said Esen Boldkhuu, Chief Executive Officer of UraniumX.

Exploration Update

The Company is currently finalizing a Moving Loop Electromagnetic ("MLEM") ground geophysical survey at its flagship Murphy Lake Property in the northeastern Athabasca Basin. Murphy Lake is located approximately 5 km south of IsoEnergy Ltd.'s (TSX: ISO) Hurricane Deposit and 3 km away from the Cosa Resources (TSXV: COSA) Cyclone structural trend, and 4 km east of Cameco Corporation's (TSX: CCO) La Rocque Lake Uranium Zone. Previous drilling returned 0.242% U₃O₈ over 0.5 metres within a 4.2 metre wide deformation zone in drill hole ML22 006.

Upon receipt of processed data, MLEM results will be integrated with existing geophysical, geochemical, and drill hole data to finalize targets for the Company's planned spring 2026 drill program at Murphy Lake. The drill program is fully funded from existing treasury.

At Zoo Bay, the Company is planning a ground geophysical survey on the 19,850 hectare property, which benefits from a shallow unconformity at depths between 0 and 200 metres. The survey is designed to advance drill target selection across priority areas of the property. As previously announced, the Company has entered into a letter of intent with Pond Technologies Holdings Inc. regarding an option agreement for the Zoo Bay Uranium Project (see news release dated April 27, 2026).

This news release contains references to neighbouring properties in which UraniumX has no interest. Mineralization on neighbouring properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization at Murphy Lake.

Website Launch

The Company has launched a redesigned website at www.uraniumx.ca, featuring an interactive Athabasca Basin exploration map incorporating over 19,000 historical drillhole records, 28,000 EM conductors, and regional geological survey data from the Saskatchewan Geological Survey. The platform provides investors and stakeholders with direct access to the geoscience underpinning the Company's exploration strategy.

Marketing Agreement

The Company also announces that it has entered into an agreement with Machai Capital Inc. ("Machai") dated May 1, 2026, pursuant to which Machai will provide marketing, advertising and public awareness services to the Company, including a comprehensive digital media marketing program, multiplatform digital campaigns, social media amplification and targeted investor communications. The services will be conducted in accordance with the applicable policies of the CSE.

Machai has been engaged by the Company for a three-month period commencing immediately. In consideration for the services provided, the Company will pay Machai $300,000 plus GST (goods and services tax) out of its general working capital account over the period of the contract. Machai and its principal, Suneal Sandhu, currently own 362,500 common shares of the Company, 362,500 common share purchase warrants, and 250,000 restricted share units. Machai Capital Inc.'s address is 101 17565 58 Avenue, Surrey, British Columbia, V3S 4E3.

Apex Widens and Extends Newly Discovered Zone with Significant NdPr Enrichment (>30%)

Highlights:Significant expansion of the newly discovered very highly-enriched NdPr Horizon (herein termed "Neo Zone") at the bottom of hole RIFT26-003 with intercepts including:13.5 m at 1.08% REO (31.7% NdPr)17.2 m at 0.89% REO (39.4% NdPr)22.7 m at 0.79% REO (32.8% NdPr) incl. 10.9 m at 0.99% REO (30.1% NdPr)10.5 m at 0.91% REO (35.2% NdPr)4.7 m at 0.71% REO (51.6% NdPr)4.2 m at 1.31% REO (33.0% NdPr) highlighting potential for significantly higher REO grades at higher NdPr distributions.NdPr represents the highest value component in most rare earth deposits due to its critical use in high-strength permanent magnets.NdPr distributions of 30-50% at appreciable REO grade in RIFT26-003 are significantly higher than the 14-20% typical of carbonatite-hosted REE deposits globally.For example, NdPr enrichment reported on herein is consistently more than double that of the only operating rare earth mine in North America (MP Materials' Mountain Pass), which reports an NdPr ratio of 16.4% (3)NdPr enrichment has now been confirmed over >120 m strike length between RIFT-003 and RIFT-002 (10.0 m at 0.75% REO and 49.0% NdPr - See News Release Dated April 7, 2026). The Neo Zone mineralization remains open in all directions.RIFT-003 also intersected a very high-grade zone higher up in the hole (80.0 m at 2.29% REO including 23.7 m at 4.02% REO) with more typical NdPr distributions (See News Release Dated April 28, 2026).Sean Charland, CEO of Apex Critical Metals, commented: "These results are a major step forward for the project, demonstrating NdPr content over significant intervals and strike far greater than that of typical carbonatites. Results to-date define two seemingly distinct mineralized horizons with a high-grade shallower rare earth oxide zone and a second horizon with exceptional NdPr enrichment, both of which remain wide open for expansion. Results continue to exceed expectations and point towards the potential for a high-value rare earth discovery at a time when demand for critical magnet metals continues to grow. With the addition of four new drill holes and drilling ongoing, we are well-positioned to continue expanding and defining the extent and strength of this system."
