KIRKLAND LAKE, ON / ACCESS Newswire / July 16, 2026 / RJK Explorations Ltd. (TSXV:RJX.A) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the closing of its non-brokered private placement for gross proceeds of $310,000 (the "Offering"). The Offering consisted of the sale of 15,500,000 units (the "Units") of the Company at a price of $0.02 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and one Common Share purchase warrant ("Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Common Share at a price of $0.05 for a period of five years from the date of issuance. The Company intends to use 60% of the gross proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, up to 10% for investor relations and 30% to fund its exploration program on its exploration properties.

The Offering is subject to obtaining final approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV"). The securities issued pursuant to the Offering are subject to a four-month and one day hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws and TSXV policies.

Certain insiders of the Company participated in the Offering. The participation by insiders in the Offering constituted a "related party transaction" as defined under Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Company relied on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority approval requirements of sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 in respect of such insider participation, based on a determination that fair market value of the participation in the Offering by insiders did not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101.

The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
